Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL): first-line treatment.
نویسنده
چکیده
For the past ten years, there has been a dynamic development of new therapeutic compounds and prognostic parameters for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Hematologists and oncologists are challenged to use these new possibilities for an optimized, risk- and fitness-adapted treatment strategy, with the goal of achieving long-term remissions and preserving a good quality of life. This review is intended to summarize the current knowledge on first-line treatment of CLL.

متن کاملChronic lymphocytic leukemia, biology, new diagnosis and treatment: review article
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a malignancy of B CD5+cells and is the most common type of leukemia in adults. The disease is more common in men over 50 years in western countries. CLL is associated with defective apoptosis in B cells. CLL was traditionally regarded as a disease that occurs before naïve B cells meet the antigen in the lymph nodes. Laboratory diagnosis requires white blood...
متن کاملDown-regulation of miR-193b-3p and miR-376a-3p in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Background: Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is the most common adult human leukemia. Studies revealed that microRNAs (miRNAs) can function as oncogenes or tumor suppressors in CLL and that the expression of miRNAs, such as miR-193b-3p and miR-376a-3p change in several diseases. We aimed to elucidate the changes in miR-193b-3p and miR-376a-3p expression in CLL and determine their potential as...

Background and Aims: Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is the most common adult human leukemia. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression. Research has shown that in CLL, microRNAs can have function as oncogenes or tumor suppressors. Some studies demonstrated that the expression of microRNA-93 (miR-93) and microRNA-330 (miR-330) have been changed in several can...
متن کاملAnalysis of HLA-G Gene Expression in B-Lymphocytes from Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia Patients
The human leukocyte antigen G (HLA-G) molecule exhibits limited tissue distribution, low polymorphism and alternative splicings that generate seven HLA-G isoforms. HLA-G exerts multiple immunoregulatory functions. Recent studies indicate an ectopic up-regulation in tumor cells that may favor their escape from anti-tumor immune responses. This study it is an effort to clarify the presence of HLA...
