B-cell Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Purpose: To review the recent major advances in the molecular and cell biology of B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL). Methods: Weanalyzed thenatureofmalignantB-CLLB cells and their interactions with the microenvironment. Results: B-CLL is a malignancy of a mantle zonebased subpopulation of anergic, self-reactive, activated CD51 B cells devoted to the production of polyreactive natural ...
متن کاملAlemtuzumab for B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
Alemtuzumab, a humanized monoclonal antibody, is thought to destroy cancer cells through immune system stimulation or apoptosis induction (programmed cell death). In case series studies using alemtuzumab as salvage therapy, about a third of patients with B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL), who were otherwise refractory to chemotherapy, improved. Anti-tumour activity was also observed w...
متن کاملNEOPLASIA Analysis of the B - Cell Receptor B 29 ( CD 79 b ) Gene in Familial Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
The B-cell antigen receptor (BCR) comprises membrane Igs (mIgs) and a heterodimer of Iga (CD79a) and Igb (CD79b) transmembrane proteins, encoded by the mb-1 and B29 genes, respectively. These accessory proteins are required for surface expression of mIg and BCR signaling. B cells from chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL) frequently express low to undetectable surface Ig, as well as CD79b protei...
متن کاملPersonalized Drug Analysis in B Cell Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia Patients
BACKGROUND B cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL) is the most common adult leukemia in the Western world. Although therapeutic advances have notably improved the outcome for many patients, B-CLL remains an incurable disease. The purpose of this study was to search for therapeutic drugs based on altered pathways in individual patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS Genes from microarray data were ma...
متن کاملATM Mutations in B-Cell Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Mutations in the ATM gene located on the long arm of chromosome 11 at 11q22–23 cause ataxia-telangiectasia, an autosomal recessive disorder that is associated with increased incidence of malignancy and, particularly, lymphoid tumors. A role for ATM in the development of sporadic T-cell chronic leukemias is supported by the finding of loss of heterozygosity at 11q22–23 and ATM mutations in leuke...
