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
- Lymphomas can arise from different stages of B cell development:
- B cell development starts in the primary lymphoid tissue, the bone marrow and subsequent maturation takes place in secondary lymphoid tissue (spleen and lymph nodes).
- At the germinal centers of secondary lymphoid tissue B cells encounter antigens via T cells and then undergo affinity maturation to produce immunoglobulins of high affinity.
- It supports rapid B-cell proliferation for immunoglobulin affinity maturation and production of antibody diversity through two processes know as somatic hypermutation (SHM) and immunoglobulin class switching.
- Both of these processes require rapid cell turnover and multiple double stranded DNA breaks, which is error-prone.
- Somatically acquired genetic alterations ( mainly translocations) of these processes is probably the underlying cause of lymphomagenesis.
- The major subtypes of non-hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) include the following:
- Mature B-cell neoplasms:
- Diffuse large B cell lymphoma
- Follicular lymphoma
- Burkitt lymphoma
- Mantle cell lymphoma
- Hairy cell leukemia
- Extranodal marginal zone lymphoma
- Splenic marginal zone lymphoma
- Plasma cell myeloma
- Mature T and NK neoplasms:
- Mature B-cell neoplasms:
- About 85% of NHLs are of B-cell origin and only 15% are derived from T/NK cells.[1]
- The small remainder stem from macrophages.
- These tumors are characterized by the level of differentiation, the size of the cell of origin, the origin cell's rate of proliferation, and the histologic pattern of growth.
- Lymphomas of small lymphocytes generally have a more indolent course than those of large lymphocytes, which may have intermediate-grade or high-grade aggressiveness.
- Two specific lymphomas, follicular lymphoma and Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma, account for about 65% of all non-Hodgkin lymphomas, and thus a thorough knowledge of these two entities is essential.
- The gene-expression profiles of almost all non-Hodgkin lymphomas are a reflection of the equivalent healthy cell of origin from which the lymphoma is derived.[1]
- Follicular lymphoma most commonly results from the t(14;18)(q32;q21) translocation; this translocation places BCL2 (which encodes B-cell CLL/lymphoma 2) under control of the IGH enhancer element, leading to constitutive BCL2 expression.[2]
- BCL-2 is an anti-apoptotic protein, and the t(14;18)(q32;q21) translocation results in markedly elevated expression of BCL-2, which blocks the healthy germinal center default programme of apoptotic cell death and represents a defi ning pathogenic feature of follicular lymphoma.[2][3]
- Similarly, mantle cell lymphoma is characterised by the t(11;14)(q13;q32) translocation, which leads to the deregulated expression of cyclin D1.[4]
- Moreover, Burkitt lymphoma overexpresses MYC as a result of the t(8;14)(q24;q32) translocation or variants.
- Recurrent translocations are less common in peripheral T-cell lymphomas than in other types of lymphoma, and examples include the characteristic t(2;5) (p23;q35) translocation seen in anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-positive anaplastic T-cell lymphoma and the t(5;9)(q33;q22) translocation associated with follicular T-cell lymphoma.[5]
- Recurrent translocations including t(6;7) (p25;q32) and recurrent gene fusions involving the tumour-suppressor gene TP63 are characteristic of ALK-negative anaplastic T-cell lymphoma.[5][6]
Genetics
The development of Non-Hodgkin lymphoma is the result of multiple genetic mutations such as:[7][8]
- Mutations of the B-cell receptor genes and NFKB pathway
- RNA splicing mutations in the small lymphocytic lymphoma
- Genetic mutations in histone formation:[9]
- MLL2
- MEF2B
- EZH2
- CREBBP
- EP300
- MLL2
- KMT2D
- Mutations in CDKN2A alters cell cycle control and affects JAK–STAT signalling.
- Upregulation of key signalling pathways such as CD79B, MYD88, CARD11.
- Block to terminal differentiation such as BCL6 translocations and loss of PRDM1.
