      Multiple myeloma (MM) is considered an incurable B cell malignancy, although many patients can benefit from high-dose therapy with autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) as a first-line treatment. In nonHodgkin lymphoma (NHL), ASCT is usually performed after relapse with curative intent. Disease progression is often associated with increased angiogenesis, in which endothelial progenitor cells ...
    • Phospho-spesific flow cytometry identifies aberrant signaling in indolent B-cell lymphoma 

      Blix, Egil Støre; Irish, Jonathan M.; Husebekk, Anne; Delabie, Jan; Forfang, Lise; Tierens, Anne; Myklebust, June; Kolstad, Arne (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2012)
      Knowledge about signaling pathways in malignant cells may provide prognostic and diagnostic information in addition to identify potential molecular targets for therapy. B-cell receptor (BCR) and co-receptor CD40 signaling is essential for normal B cells, and there is increasing evidence that signaling via BCR and CD40 plays an important role in the pathogenesis of B-cell lymphoma. The aim of this ...
