Linfoma di Burkitt
(Burkitt)
Aims
….Attitudes are more
important than abilities
Motives are more
important than methods
Character is more
important than cleverness
And heart takes precedence
over the head…..
Denis P. Burkitt, 1991
LINFOMA DI BURKITT (LBT)
endemico:
zone centrali dell’Africa (malaria)
età pediatrica; sedi: mandibola, ovaio
sporadico:
paesi occidentali
età variabile; sedi: intestino, gonadi,
SNC
HIV-correlato: SNC, etc.
Buona risposta in età pediatrica con terapie aggressive
FORMA ENDEMICA
(Lancet Oncology 2004; 5:738-46)
Patogenesi del linfoma di Burkitt endemico
legata alla cooperazione di:
- EBV (immortalizzazione),
- malaria (spinta proliferativa),
- Arbovirus trasmessi da mosche (stimolo
immunitario),
- Euphorbia tirucalli (danno al DNA),
- traslocazione coinvolgente c-MYC.

Question
• Are the three subtypes of Burkitt
lymphoma different diseases or different
features of the same disease?

Molecular profiling of

BL is a unique molecular
entity

Follicular lymphoma
Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma
Primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma

differences in their GEPs

eBL and HIV-BL: 16 genes
(almost identical),
eBL
sBL
eBL & sBL: 254 genes, including
cell cycle regulation.
GSEA showed that eBL and sBL differ for the
expression of genes related to the RBL2 network
eBL
sBL
Accordingly, RBL2 malfunction is relevant for eBL but doesn’t affect sBL.
RBL2 functional network identified by
ARACNe
The results do not vary by
subtracting the MYC network
BL molecular profile depends also on EBV status
A
A molecular signature
discriminated BLs according to
the presence of EBV in both a
training (A) and a test (C) set of
cases (chi-sq., p<0.0001).
C
Such genes were significantly
related to apoptosis regulation

Recurrently mutated genes were found in Burkitt
lymphoma by NGS
In 70% of sBL cases,
mutations affecting the transcription
factor TCF3 (E2A) or its negative
regulator ID3 fostered TCF3 dependency.
TCF3 activated the pro-survival PI(3)
kinase pathway in BL, in part by
augmenting constitutive B cell receptor
signaling.
