Identification of methylated genes associated with aggressive clinicopathological features in mantle cell lymphoma.
<h4>Background</h4>Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is genetically characterized by the t(11;14)(q13;q32) translocation and a high number of secondary chromosomal alterations. The contribution of DNA methylation to MCL lymphomagenesis is not well known. We sought to identify epigenetically sil...
