Background/Objectives: Most patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) are diagnosed at an early stage, but the time to first treatment (TTFT) varies widely. We aimed to identify clinical and routine laboratory factors associated with TTFT. Met...
The correlation between progression and the genetic characteristics of Binet stage A patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) detected by whole exome sequencing (WES) was analyzed in 55 patients. The median follow-up for the patients was 102...
Background: Elevated beta-2-microglobulin (B2M) plasma levels commonly imply a higher CLL-IPI risk category for short overall survival (OS), but the risk model was not adjusted for compromised kidney function and not validated in Binet A stage CLL pa...
We determined lymphoid enhancer-binding factor-1 (LEF1) mRNA expression in 112 chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) samples and assessed correlations with the prognostic markers ZAP70 and CD38, Binet stages, the percentage of lymphocytes in the periphe...
Background/Objectives: Understanding the pathogenesis of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) has led to the development of new prognostic and diagnostic tools, and efforts are underway to extend survival with new prognostic markers and treatment agent...
Introduction: In mouse models of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), an effective anti-leukemia immune response was obtained by depleting a specific regulatory T-cell (Treg) subset. While STAT5 signaling could alter the homeostasis of naïve (nTr...
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) has a variable clinical evolution, with some patients living treatment-free for decades while others require therapy shortly after diagnosis. In a consecutive series of 217 CLL patients, molecular biomarkers with pr...
Background and Objectives: Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is the most common type of leukemia in developed countries, which can evolve into aggressive lymphoma variants, a process called Richter transformation (RT). The aim of this retrospective...
Background: Type-1 cryoglobulinemia (CG) is a rare disease associated with B-cell lymphoproliferative disorder. Some viral infections, such as Epstein–Barr Virus infections, are known to cause malignant lymphoproliferation, like certain B-cell...
Background/Objectives: Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is characterized by genetic and epigenetic alterations. This study aimed to assess the methylation status of E-Cadherin and MMP-9 gene promoters and to explore their relationships with disease...
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a known hematologic malignancy associated with a growing incidence and post-treatment relapse. Hence, finding a reliable diagnostic biomarker for CLL is crucial. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) represent a new class of...
The introduction of idelalisib, ibrutinib and venetoclax for treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) has greatly improved long term survival of patients. However, many patients do not achieve complete remission and suffer from development of...
Background/Objectives: Despite the current international prognostic index for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) being widely accepted and broadly used, it does not consider the kinetics of the B-cell clone over time. Here, we investigated the potent...
Background/Objectives: The immunoglobulin heavy-chain variable (IGHV) gene repertoire represents a characteristic feature of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), although its configuration is not well defined at the early disease stages. The IGHV repe...
Membrane-bound CD200 is overexpressed in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), and there is some evidence that its soluble ectodomain (sCD200) could also be involved in the pathophysiology and the disease. However, very little is known about sCD200’s p...
Reliable visual sensing is important for UAV-assisted monitoring of live-line power operations, where workers, personal protective equipment (PPE), temporary insulation, and electrical structures appear under large-scale variation, occlusion, and bac...
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play complex roles at multiple levels of gene regulation, thus modulating key cellular processes involved in the pathogenesis and progression of cancer. Aberrant expression of lncRNAs has been reported in various malign...
Introduction: Advanced chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is accompanied by increased circulating regulatory T cells (Tregs) and increased susceptibility to severe infections, which were also shown to entail a striking induction of FOXP3 expression i...
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is characterized by progressive immunosuppression and diminished cancer immunosurveillance. Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB)-based therapies, a major breakthrough against cancer, have emerged as a powerful tool to r...
Background/Objectives: Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) displays substantial clinical heterogeneity, yet access to genomic prognostic testing remains limited in many real-world and resource-constrained settings. Readily available biomarkers that re...
