Abstract:
Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) is a heterogeneous disease associated with diverse clinical and molecular profiles, suggesting long-term clonal evolution driven by genetic diversification from a small, often undetected, subset of leukemic cells endowed with superior growth capacities. More importantly, this diversification process enhances the opportunity of CLL subclones to survive selective pressure, such as BTK or PLCG2 mutations that can abolish the effect of BTK inhibitors. While this evolutionary process is inevitable in leukemic cells, therapeutic intervention targeting the cells tha

Abstract AIDS-associated primary central nervous system lymphomas are late events that have an extremely poor prognosis.

Objectives: Follicular lymphoma (FL) typically originates from premalignant mature B cells that carry the founder t(14;18) BCL2 translocation. Mutations in epigenetic modifiers and acquisition of N-glycosylation sites in CDR regions of the B-cell receptor (BCR) are recurrent secondary events in FL pathogenesis. Despite these oncogenic drivers, FL can remain indolent and clinically stable for years. The molecular events driving subclonal evolution into symptomatic progression and eventual transformation to aggressive lymphoma are insufficiently understood. FL cells are frozen in their B-cell de

Abstract Almost one-third of all splenic marginal zone lymphoma (SMZL) cases express B cell receptor immunoglobulin (BcR IG) encoded by the IGHV1-2*04 gene. Such cases display a distinctive profile of genomic aberrations (e.g. higher incidence of NOTCH2 and KLF2 mutations) and a more aggressive clinical course compared to SMZL cases utilizing other IGHV genes. Such skewing of the BcR IG gene repertoire implicates antigen selection in SMZL ontogeny.

The degree of anergy informs CLL progression and response to BTK inhibitors (BTKi), whereby patients with high sIgM have a more rapid progression and shorter duration of response to BTKi.
