<p>Bone Marrow Aspirate: 2 mL in EDTA tube.<br/>
Peripheral Blood: 5 mL in EDTA tube.<br/>
H&E slide (required) plus paraffin block.<br/>
Cut Slides: H&E slide (required) plus 10-14 unstained slides cut at 5+ microns.<br/>
Note on FFPE: Paraffin block is preferred. Do not use zinc fixatives. If submitting slides, please use positively-charged slides and 10% NBF fixative. Block and slide identifiers should be clearly written and match exactly with the specimen ID and specimen labeling as noted on the requisition.<br/>
Do not use mercury fixatives (B5). Highly acidic or prolonged decalcification processes will not yield sufficient nucleic acid to accurately perform molecular studies.<br/>
Note: Test is TNA-based. Please select Extract & Hold - TNA If specimen hold service is desired.</p>

Clinical Significance
Angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL) is a subtype of peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) and accounts for 20-25% of PTCLs. Peripheral T-cell lymphoma is known as an aggressive group of lymphoid malignancies and represent about 10-15% of non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Frequent mutations have been detected in the genes IDH1/2, DNMT3A, TET2 and RHOA in patients diagnosed with AITL. These mutations may play a role in the pathogenesis of AITL/PTCLs.
Storage and transportation
Use cold pack for transport, making sure cold pack is not in direct contact with specimen. Ship same day as drawn whenever possible. Please select Extract & Hold - TNA if specimen hold service is desired.
