Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We investigated several stem-like phenotype markers in follicular lymphoma patient samples, and some minor population was positive for these stem-like markers. These cells harbored t(14;18) by microdissection study. Furthermore, some minor stem-like positive cells presented in human derived B-cell lymphoma cell lines and these minor populations had treatment resistance and strong tumorigenic potential by in vitro and in vivo assay.
