Ibrutinib in chronic lymphocytic leukemia and B cell malignancies [PDF]

open access: possibleLeukemia & Lymphoma, 2013
Recent clinical data suggest remarkable activity of ibrutinib, the first-in-class covalent inhibitor of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK), in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), as well as excellent activity in other B cell malignancies, including in particular mantle cell lymphoma and Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia.

Angiogenesis is increased in B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia

Blood, 2001
Aguayo and colleagues recently reported elevated levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in the cells of B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).[1][1] When discussing the possible significance of the elevated VEGF levels in CLL, the authors cite their prior abstract in which ...

Stereotyped B-cell receptors in chronic lymphocytic leukemia

Leukemia & Lymphoma, 2014
Over the last decade, immunogenetic analysis of B-cell receptor immunoglobulins (BcR IGs) has proved to be a particularly fruitful field in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), not only for understanding disease pathogenesis but also for discriminating clinical subgroups with markedly distinct course and outcome.

Genetic Features of B‐Cell Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia

Reviews in Clinical and Experimental Hematology, 2000
The genetic features of B‐cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia CLL) are currently being reassessed by molecular cytogenetic techniques such as fluorescence in situ hybridization FISH). Conventional cytogenetic studies by chromosome banding are difficult in CLL mainly because of the low in vitro mitotic activity of the tumor cells, which leads to poor ...

Genetics of B-Cell Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia

2004
B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL) is the most frequent type of leukemia among adults in the Western world, with an incidence of about 5 cases per 100,000 residents annually (1,2). The disease affects mainly people of advanced age, but about 20% of patients are younger than 55 (3).B-CLL is characterized by the accumulation of lymphocytes that ...

Assessment of a B-cell function in chronic lymphocytic leukemia

Clinical Immunology and Immunopathology, 1976
Abstract Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) patients were tested for the numbers of T cells, B cells, and cells secreting immunoglobin (Ig) by recently developed methods with antibody coated erythrocytes. Five of seven patients had higher percentages (72–90%) of B cells and lower percentages (4–17%) of T cells than normal controls.

p53 Mutations in B-Cell Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia

1992
The p53 gene is a nuclear phosphoprotein that can function as a tumor suppressor gene (Michalovitz et al. 1991). Frequent mutations of the p53 gene have been detected in several types of solid tumors including breast (Mackay et al. 1988), colon (Vogelstein et al. 1989), lung (Yokota et al. 1987), liver carcinoma (Hsu et al. 1991), astrocytoma (Fults et

B-cell receptor signaling in chronic lymphocytic leukemia

Blood, 2011
AbstractThe B-cell receptor (BCR) is a key survival molecule for normal B cells and for most B-cell malignancies. Recombinatorial and mutational patterns in the clonal immunoglobulin (Ig) of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) have revealed 2 major IgMD-expressing subsets and an isotype-switched variant, each developing from distinct B-cell populations.

Myelomonocytic antigens in B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia

Leukemia Research, 1995
The clinical significance of myelomonocytic (MyMo) antigens in B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL) is unclear. We have analyzed the expression of MyMo antigens (CD13, CD14 (LeuM3, My4, Mo2), CD15, CD11b, CD11c, CD33 and CD68) on B-lymphocytes (CD19+) in 105 B-CLL patients and in 35 controls.

Modulation of apoptosis by cytokines in B‐cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia [PDF]

open access: possibleCytometry, 1999
B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL) is characterized by the slow and progressive accumulation of monoclonal apparently mature, CD5(+) B lymphocytes. The majority of circulating cells appear to be nondividing, and it has been suggested that a prolonged life span is mainly responsible for the accumulation of the leukemic cells.
