It has been shown that IgH translocations, which are thought to represent very early – if not initiating – events in the pathogenesis of MGUS and MM, directly dysregulate CYCLIN D1 or CYCLIN D3 in about 20% of tumors, and indirectly dysregulate CYCLIN D2 in another 10% or so of tumors [8,17,33]. The gene discussed is CCND3; the disease is Miyoshi myopathy.
