MAX mRNA expression in ALCL cases was significantly lower than that in other T-cell lymphomas (angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma, adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma, and extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type), regardless of MYC mRNA expression (Fig. 2B). This evidence concerns the gene MYC and T-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
