2. Immune cells in chronic lymphocytic leukemia and Hodgkin lymphoma in relation to tumor burden and treatment
Abstract : B-cell malignancies are a heterogeneous group of cancers that originate from lymphoidlineage cells that are responsible for humoral immunity. When B-cell development goes wrong, chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL), among other malignancies, may arise.
