...ident waiting to happen, says Dr. Roth, since some lymphomas and leukemias may arise when this process is faulty. At the same time, this process is essential for lymphocyte development, explains Dr. Roth.

... and very long telomeres. These mice all developed lymphomas by the time they were 7 months old. The researchers then continued breeding the mice to see what would happen in later generations. By the fifth generation, the researchers discovered that the mice had short telomeres and stopped developing lymphomas......nes. Many cancers certain sarcomas, leukemias and lymphomas start with translocation. Existing methods result in the desired translocation of two chromosomes in one of every 1 million to 10 million cells cultured, Capecchi says, while the new method produces the desired result in one of every 100 cells. S...Damon Runyon names new class of rising stars in cancer research
... pathogens like Campylobacter jejuni contribute to lymphomas and other cancers. Sarah E. Siegrist, PhD, with her sponsor Iswar K.

... Since the ATM protein is mutated in a number of lymphomas -- cancers of the lymph and immune system -- the new finding suggests to researchers that the lymphocytes could have been living with DNA damage for a long time, and that this damage likely plays a role in later chromosomal translocations, rearrangem....... The incidence of bone cancers, skin cancers, and lymphomas is increasing in humans and dogs and there are significant similarities between certain types of human and canine cancer such as breast and prostate cancer.
