This finding is in line with our previous data [35, 36], showing that follicular lymphomas lacking the BCL2 translocation show a late germinal center (GC) phenotype and from other groups [37] showing that these lymphomas transform in, about half of the cases, to ABC DLBCL, and a portion of these cases bear a BCL6 translocation. Here, BCL6 is linked to diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
