Overview

Non Hodgkin's Lymphoma represents a heterogeneous group of diseases with varied clinical presentation and histological appearance.It arises from cell of the lymphoid system, tumors are mainly derived from B lymphocytes, but are also from T lymphocytes, or natural killer cells. Lymphomas rise from different stages of B and T cell differentiation. Aberrations in the tightly controlled steps of B cell development can lead to oncogenesis. These aberrations are mainly seen in form of chromosomal translocation.


Pathophysiology

Pathogenesis

  • The major subtypes of non-hodgkin lymphoma include the following:[4][5]
    • Mature B-cell neoplasms:
    • Mature T and NK neoplasms:
      • Adult T-cell lymphoma
      • Mycosis fungoides
      • Sezary syndrome
      • Peripheral T cell lymphoma

    • MLL2
    • MEF2B
    • EZH2
    • CREBBP
    • EP300
    • MLL2
