Description
Bcl-6 proto-oncogene product (a Kruppel- type zinc-finger protein) is mainly expressed in normal germinal center B cells and related lymphomas. Bcl-6 is involved in chromosome rearrangements at 3q27 in non- Hodgkin?s lymphomas and Bcl-6 rearrangements have been detected in 33%-45% of diffuse large B cell lymphomas.Bcl-6 has been detected immunohistochemically in follicular lymphomas, diffuse large B cell lymphomas, Burkitt?s lymphomas and in nodular, lymphocyte predominant Hodgkin?s disease.
