Management of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) in the era of B-cell receptor signal transduction inhibitors

TL;DR: This review highlights key aspects of B‐cell receptor (BCR) signaling in relation to novel inhibitors of the BCR signaling pathway, currently at various stages of preclinical and clinical development.
Journal ArticleDOI

BCALM (AC099524.1) Is a Human B Lymphocyte-Specific Long Noncoding RNA That Modulates B Cell Receptor-Mediated Calcium Signaling.

TL;DR: The results suggest that BCALM promotes negative feedback that downmodulates BCR-mediated Ca+ signaling by promoting phosphorylation of PLD1 by AKAP-associated kinases, enhancing production of PA.
Journal ArticleDOI

The MEK1/2 inhibitor, MEKi-1, induces cell death in chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells under conditions that mimic the tumor microenvironment and is synergistic with fludarabine

TL;DR: The MEK1/2 inhibitor, MEKi-1, induced apoptosis of CLL cells and was synergistic with fludarabine under conditions that mimic the tumor microenvironment, irrespective of poor-risk characteristics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ibrutinib: a paradigm shift in management of CLL.

TL;DR: The efficacy observed in studies of the Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitor, ibrutinib, confirms that BCR signaling is critical for the growth of B-cell malignancies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Energy metabolism is co-determined by genetic variants in chronic lymphocytic leukemia and influences drug sensitivity

TL;DR: Heterogeneity in the energy metabolism of chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells is influenced by genetic variants and this could be therapeutically exploited in the selection of therapeutic strategies.

Unmutated Ig V(H) genes are associated with a more aggressive form of chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors sequenced the Ig V(H) genes of the tumor cells of 84 patients with CLL and correlated their findings with clinical features, finding that the lack of somatic mutation and trisomy 12 was associated with a less favorable prognosis.
