Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Inflammatory cells participate in the malignant lymphoma tissues together with tumor cells. In this research, we demonstrated that tumor cells and inflammatory cells in the malignant lymphoma tissues have a common ancestor cell. In detail, a single hematopoietic progenitor cell becomes a “cancer-preparing cell” by sequentially acquiring gene mutations, which eventually produces tumor cells and inflammatory cells. This is the first to prove such a concept.
