BCL6 represses CHEK1 and suppresses DNA damage pathways in normal and malignant B-cells [PDF]
BCL6 is a transcriptional repressor protein that is expressed in a developmentally regulated fashion during B-cell maturation. Specifically, BCL6 is required for formation of germinal centers in response to T-cell dependent antigen activation. Germinal center B-cells feature the ability to tolerate rapid proliferation and simultaneous genetic ...

Olaparib for patients with tumors harboring alterations in homologous recombination repair genes: Results from the drug rediscovery protocol. [PDF]
What's new? PARP inhibitors are effective in patients with inactivating alterations in the BRCA1/2 genes across tumor types. However, the efficacy of PARP inhibitors in patients with other inactivated homologous recombination repair genes remains unclear. This knowledge gap and discrepancies in EMA/FDA approvals highlight the need for better biomarkers.

B lymphocytes and tertiary lymphoid structures have a prognostic impact on penile squamous cell carcinoma. [PDF]
Abstract Several prognostic markers, including tumor‐infiltrating lymphocytes, which have been recently identified in penile squamous cell carcinoma (pSCC), have focused mostly on T cells. The prognostic role of B cells and tertiary lymphoid structures (TLSs) has not yet been sufficiently described. We examined whole tissue sections histopathologically
