Microenvironment expression in diffuse large B-cell lymphomas

CD5 expression in de novo diffuse large B-cell lymphomas.

Lenalidomide in Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphomas

Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphomas (DLBCL) are the most frequent Non-Hodgkin Lymphomas (NHL). The addition of Rituximab to the standard chemotherapy CHOP improved the outcome in this patients, but so far 40% of patients experienced relapse or progressive disease. Lenalidomide, an immunomodulatory agent, had direct tumoricidal and antiangiogenetic actions on tumor cells and was able to modulate tumo...

Micro-classifying diffuse large B-cell lymphomas.

BCL2 Family Related Genes Expression and Chemotherapy Response in Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma

  Background and Objective: Approximately half of patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma are cured with current chemotherapy regimens. The purpose of this study was to evaluate Bax and Bcl2 expression and their relationship with the response to chemotherapy. Materials and Methods This study was a prospective analysis on 44 patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Their specimens we...

Differentiation stage-specific expression of microRNAs in B lymphocytes and diffuse large B-cell lymphomas.

miRNAs are small RNA molecules binding to partially complementary sites in the 3'-UTR of target transcripts and repressing their expression. miRNAs orchestrate multiple cellular functions and play critical roles in cell differentiation and cancer development. We analyzed miRNA profiles in B-cell subsets during peripheral B-cell differentiation as well as in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL)...
