We here show that increased expression of MDM2, a negative regulator of p53, correlates with inferior survival in a series of 43 mantle cell lymphomas. MDM2 overexpression is associated with copy number gains of the MDM2 locus in single tumors, but not with the recently reported MDM2 promoter SNP309.
Key words: mantle cell lymphoma, MDM2 expression, survival, SNP309.
