Methodology: IHC

Clinical Significance:
C-2 is more sensitive than clone 124 in identifying bcl-2 protein expression in t(14;18)-positive follicular lymphomas. This increased sensitivity is possibly due to C-2 having been raised against a much larger portion of the bcl-2 protein than clone 124. Subcellular Localization: Cytoplasmic

Organ:

Disease State: Follicular Lymphoma

CPT Code(s): 88342 or 88341 (reference only; CPTs may vary)

Turnaround Time: Within 1-2 business days of receipt
