Real-time quantitative RT-PCR to measure theBCL3 mRNA levels in hematologic tumor cells.

The BCL3/18S rRNA ratio of each test material was normalized to that of HUT 102 (= 1). The t(2;5)⁺ ALCL, t(2;5)⁻ ALCL, and HD are highlighted with appropriate symbols. B-CLL indicates B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia; FL, follicular lymphoma; DLBCL, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma; MCL, mantle cell lymphoma; and LPL, lymphoplasmacytoid lymphoma. Molecular analyses of t(14;19)⁺ B-CLL and t(2;5)⁺ ALCL (cases no. 646, 1029, 1078) were described previously.32 37
