Journal ArticleDOI
Epstein-Barr virus induces aggressive lymphoproliferative disorders of human B cell origin in SCID/hu chimeric mice.
TL;DR: Although these tumors undoubtedly reflect infection of the transferred B cells with EBV in vivo, intraperitoneal transfer of short-term lymphoid cell lines transformed in vitro withEBV resulted in ascites production without evidence of tumor formation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interferon α down-regulates telomerase reverse transcriptase and telomerase activity in human malignant and nonmalignant hematopoietic cells
Dawei Xu,Sven Erickson,Michael Szeps,Astrid Gruber,Olle Sangfelt,Stefan Einhorn,Pavel Pisa,Dan Grandér +7 more
TL;DR: The finding that IFN induces a repression of hTERT and a decrease in telomerase activity suggests a novel mechanism that may play a significant role in the antitumor action of IFN.
Journal ArticleDOI
High frequency of t(14;18) translocation in salivary gland lymphomas from Sjögren's syndrome patients.
TL;DR: It is concluded that the great sensitivity of PCR can help in detecting early onset of lymphoma in SS patients and aid in understanding the transition from autoimmunity to lymphoma.
Journal Article
Potential role of Epstein-Barr virus in Sjögren's syndrome and rheumatoid arthritis.
TL;DR: In the pathogenesis of Sjögren's syndrome, SS may represent a situation where genetically predisposed individuals have a persistent but ineffectual T cell immune response against EBV at its site of latency.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cyclin E overexpression in relapsed adult acute lymphoblastic leukemias of B-cell lineage
Richard Scuderi,Karolina A. Palucka,Katja Pokrovskaja,Magnus Björkholm,Klas G. Wiman,Pavel Pisa +5 more
TL;DR: Cyclin E expression in ALL blasts may correlate to the relative malignant status of the cells, with higher protein levels reflecting a more advanced stage of the disease and a greater potential to proliferate under permissive conditions.
