SNP Analysis of Minimally Evolved t(14;18)(q32;q21)-Positive Follicular Lymphomas Reveals a Common Copy-Neutral Loss of Heterozygosity Pattern
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Follicular lymphoma (FL) cases with a t(14;18)(q32;q21) and minimal or no additional karyotypic alterations, such as copy number gains and losses and/or chromosomal rearrangements, may exhibit pathologic features and a clinical behavior similar to those with more complex karyotypes. This study sought to investigate whether the copy-neutral loss of heterozygosity (cnLOH) profiles of these minimally evolved t(14;18)(q32;q21)-positive follicular lymphoma (MEV-FL) cases are similar to or different from the majority of FL cases with more karyotypic alterations. Affymetrix SNP 6.0 array analysis was applied to the tumor genomes of 23 MEV-FL biopsy samples to assess for the presence of cnLOH. These cases carried either a single or no chromosomal abnormality in addition to t(14;18)(q32;q21) as determined by karyotyping. We found that, although these MEV-FL cases had simple karyotypes, they showed very similar cnLOH profiles as compared to cytogenetically complex cases. The most frequent regions affected by cnLOH were 1p (17%), 6p (17%), 12q (13%) and 16p (13%). Our study suggests that cnLOH alterations may serve as important contributors to the pathological and clinical manifestations of FL.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
