## Abstract ## BACKGROUND The ubiquitinβproteasome pathway has been implicated in the pathogenesis of many hematologic malignancies. ## METHODS The authors measured proteasome peptidase activity levels in plasma samples from 225 patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and correlated the
## Background: Interleukin 6 (il-6) is a b-cell growth and differentiation factor, which may promote the growth of b-cell neoplasms. in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (cll) patients, il-6 plasma levels increased in a stage-dependent manner, suggesting that il-6 may be a useful prognostic marker. the
## BACKGROUND. Although patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) have an increased risk of developing second primary malignancies, including lung carcinoma, there is virtually no information about their clinical outcomes. To evaluate this, the authors reviewed their 20-year institutional e
