Inhibitory co-receptors downmodulate B-cell receptor (BCR) signalling by setting a signalling threshold that prevents overstimulation of B cells. Activation of these inhibitory co-receptors occurs by phosphorylation on their cytoplasmic inhibitory immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibition motifs (ITI

## Abstract The prognosis of diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma (DLBCL) has improved markedly in recent years of rituximab era. The prognosis of __de novo__ CD5‐positive DLBCL is reported to be poor, but the effect of rituximab on this type of lymphoma remains unclear. To investigate the effect of ritux
The TI surface antigen (CD5,p67) expression on blood lymphocytes (PBL) and lymphoid cells from lymph node biopsies (LN) from 31 patients with B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL) and 79 with B non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL), was detected in 25 B-CLL (80 per cent) and in 11 B-NHL (13 per cent) b
