Overview
Extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma is caused by transition mutation of p53.P53 overexpresion has assosiation with poor prognosis.
Causes
Genetic causes:
- Extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma is caused by transition mutation of p53.[1]
- Genetic instability of micro satellites was not found in cases with the disease.[2]
- P53 overexpresion has assosiation with poor prognosis.
