Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL): From Benchside to Bedside

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue of the Lymphatics journal aims to enable the rapid publication of contributions and discoveries concerning all aspects of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) research, ranging from basic research to clinical applications, with the focus on the translational research.

In the past few decades, with the new understanding of pathogenesis and molecular biology of CLL, the prognosis tools and targeted therapies have been greatly developed. However, it is still far from sufficient to reach robust conclusions and guidelines for treatment. We are pleased to invite you to share with us your perspectives and research results of CLL in the Collection. Topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

- Normal B-cells and CLL B-cells

- Genetics and genomics of CLL

- Microenvironment

- Molecular biology, pathology and diagnostics

- Therapeutics, chemotherapy and chemoimmunotherapy

- Therapeutics, novel targeted therapies including cellular therapies

- Resistance mechanisms

- Curing CLL
