TCL-1 expression is variable in CLL, and no study has examined its association with treatment response. We measured TCL-1 protein in CLL cells from 51 patients who then received pentostatin, cyclophosphamide, and rituximab. TCL-1 expression did not correlate with any pre-treatment characteristics. L

## Abstract ## Background: Increased CD38 expression by leukemic cells has been suggested as an adverse prognostic factor in BโCLL. Several approaches have been proposed to quantify its level of expression by flow cytometry. ## Methods: We compared the use of (i) the percentage of CD38 positive
## Abstract We have previously identified 12 surface antigens whose differential expression represented the signature of Bโcell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (BโCLL) subsets with different prognosis. In the present study, expression data for these antigens, as determined in 137 BโCLL cases, all with
