Generation of Functional CLL-Specific Cord Blood CTL Using CD40-Ligated CLL APC
Though remissions have been observed following allo-HSCT for the treatment of CLL, many CLL patients are ineligible for transplant due to the lack of HLA-compatible donors. The use of umbilical cord blood (UCB) permits transplantation of many patients who lack HLA-compatible donors due to reduced requirements for stringent HLA matching between graft and recipient; however, disease relapse remai...
متن کاملNo CLL transmission through blood transfusion.
In this issue of Blood, Hjalgrim et al used the Scandinavian Donations and Transfusions (SCANDAT2) database, which includes comprehensive information on donors and recipients of >20 million blood products handled by the Danish and Swedish blood banks between 1968 and 2010, to address the clinically relevant question of whether chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is transmitted through blood tran...
متن کاملDiagnosis of B-CLL Leukemia Using Fractal Dimension
Background:Leukemia is cancer of blood and bone marrow cells. In general, there are four types of leukemia: chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), acute myeloid leukemia (AML), B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Fractal geometry can be introduced as one of the effective ways to detect this type of cancer. In this study, with introduc...
متن کاملCLL: a supplementary question?
In this issue of Blood, Shanafelt and colleagues provide the first evidence that vitamin D deficiency is a risk factor for disease progression in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Their findings imply that dietary vitamin D supplementation could potentially modify the natural history of this incurable disease.
متن کاملTelomere disrupts, CLL progresses.
In this issue of Blood, Lin and colleagues address in detail the nature and severity of telomere disruption in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).1 Using sophisticated methods for telomere length determination, the authors show that critical telomere shortening occurs in a proportion of CLL samples and correlates with the presence of large-scale genomic rearrangements occurring in telomeric reg...
