Serum levels of B-cell activating factor are associated with a reduced risk of chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
Impact: Immune dysregulation is thought to contribute to chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) risk, but biological mechanisms are unclear. We discovered that increased serum levels of B-cell activating factor (BAFF), an important regulator of B-cell maturation, were associated with a decreased risk of CLL, even >10 years after blood draw. Our findings suggest that BAFF could be a useful biomarker to assess risk among individuals at high risk, such as those with monoclonal b-cell lymphocytosis.
期刊介绍:
Blood Cancer Journal is dedicated to publishing high-quality articles related to hematologic malignancies and related disorders. The journal welcomes submissions of original research, reviews, guidelines, and letters that are deemed to have a significant impact in the field. While the journal covers a wide range of topics, it particularly focuses on areas such as:
Preclinical studies of new compounds, especially those that provide mechanistic insights
Clinical trials and observations
Reviews related to new drugs and current management of hematologic malignancies
Novel observations related to new mutations, molecular pathways, and tumor genomics
Blood Cancer Journal offers a forum for expedited publication of novel observations regarding new mutations or altered pathways.
