Episode 108 - Single MALT | Marginal Zone Lymphoma

What do you call a small B-cell lymphoma that isn't CD5 positive, isn't CD10 positive and generally refuses to wear any of the usual hats? Probably marginal zone lymphoma. Possibly. Maybe.

Join the Bloody Minded crew as we head to the edge of the follicle where the bloodstream's customs officers live, and look at what happens when they go rogue. Discover how to cure a cancer with a PPI, and why we're so very bored of the NF-κB pathway.
