Moreover, a study in NPM/ALK+ anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) cell lines and NPM/ALK+ ALCL lymph node biopsies showed that BCL2L11 is epigenetically silenced and that treatment with the deacetylase inhibitor trichostatin A restores histone acetylation, strongly upregulates BCL2L11 expression, and induces cell death [30]. This evidence concerns the gene ALK and anaplastic large cell lymphoma.
