1. Protein kinases and phosphatases in B-cell lymphoma
Abstract : Around 2000 persons are diagnosed with lymphoma in Sweden each year. There are many subgroups described for this form of cancer and the great majority is derived from B-cells. The most common subgroup is Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), a highly aggressive disease where only half of the patients are cured. READ MORE

2. Regulation of B cell development by antigen receptors
Abstract : The developmental processes of lymphopoiesis generate mature B lymphocytes from hematopoietic stem cells through increasingly restricted intermediates. Networks of transcription factors regulate these cell fate choices and are composed of both ubiquitously expressed and B lineage-specific factors. READ MORE

3. TRIM21/ Ro52 in B cell pathology
Abstract : Primary Sjögren’s syndrome (pSS) is a systemic autoimmune disease affecting 0.2% of the population. Several B cell aberrances have been linked to pSS, such as autoantibody production, hypergammaglobulinemia and B cell associated genetic polymorphisms. In addition, pSS patients display a 16 fold increased risk to develop B cell lymphomas. READ MORE

4. Innate mechanisms regulating peripheral B cell tolerance
Abstract : Our immune system protects us from invading pathogens such as bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites. However, it can also cause disease by being improperly activated against our own tissues (autoimmune diseases) and harmless environmental factors (allergy). READ MORE

5. Gene regulation by Early B-cell Factor (EBF)
Abstract : In this study we aimed at defining genes that are controlled by Early B-cell Factor (EBF), that could explain the severe block in B-cell development observed in EBF-/- mice. The fact that EBF appears to be important for the transcriptional control of genes encoding proteins in the pre-B and B-cell receptor complex implied to us that EBF could be a common regulator of other components in the pre-B and B-cell receptor.
