Identification of uniquely expressed transcription factors in highly purified B-cell lymphoma samplesUlrika Andréasson
Department of Immunotechnology, Lund University, Sweden
Am J Hematol 85:418-25. 2010..The identified transcription factors influence both the global and specific gene expression of the BCLs and have possible implications for diagnosis and treatment...
B cell lymphomas express CX3CR1 a non-B cell lineage adhesion moleculeUlrika Andréasson
Department of Immunotechnology, Lund University, CREATE Health, Lund University, BMC D13, 221 84, Lund, Sweden
Cancer Lett 259:138-45. 2008..CX3CR1 has also shown to be involved in the homing to specific tissues that express the ligand, CX3CL1, in breast and prostate cancer and may thus be involved in dissemination of lymphoma...
SOX11 expression correlates to promoter methylation and regulates tumor growth in hematopoietic malignanciesElin Gustavsson
Department of Immunotechnology, Lund University, Lund, Sweden
Mol Cancer 9:187. 2010..SOX11 has been shown to prevent gliomagenesis in vivo but the causes and consequences of aberrant expression of SOX11 outside the CNS remain unexplained...
Mantle cell lymphomas acquire increased expression of CCL4, CCL5 and 4-1BB-L implicated in cell survivalSara Ek
Department of Immunotechnology, Lund University, Lund, Sweden
Int J Cancer 118:2092-7. 2006..Signaling through 4-1BB-L allows B cells to proliferate and the expression of its ligand, by the intra-tumoral mesh of follicular dendritic cells (FDC), could thus serve as a paracrine loop facilitating growth and survival of MCL cells...
Strong lymphoid nuclear expression of SOX11 transcription factor defines lymphoblastic neoplasms, mantle cell lymphoma and Burkitt's lymphomaMichael Dictor
Department of Pathology, Lund University Hospital, Sweden
Haematologica 94:1563-8. 2009..We surveyed lymphomas to determine the range of expression of the mantle cell lymphoma-associated SOX11 transcription factor and its relation to cyclin D1...
