Clinical Information
Cyclin D1 is a protein that regulates entry of the cell into cell cycle. It drives the transition between G0 and G1 phase. In normal tissues, basal epithelial cells, endothelial cells, and stromal cells are often cyclin D1 positive. As a result of a translocation involving the cyclin D1 gene and IgH, t(11;14), the vast majority of mantle cell lymphomas overexpress cyclin D1. This is a useful feature in the classification of low-grade B-cell lymphomas.
