1. Molecular Genetic Analysis in B-cell Lymphomas : A Focus on the p53 Pathway and p16INK4a
Abstract : The presence of TP53 mutations has been associated with inferior outcome in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). In DLBCL, the impact of the TP53 codon 72 polymorphism and MDM2 SNP309 has not been clearly elucidated, whereas MDM2 SNP309 was suggested as a poor-prognostic marker in CLL. READ MORE

2. Genetics of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma
Abstract : Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is one the most common forms of non-Hodgkin lymphoma and one of the most aggressive B-cell neoplasms. Although most patients respond to current standard treatments, a significant number of them relapse and become refractory to treatment. Hence, there is a need for new approaches in the management of DLBCL. READ MORE

3. Associations Between Rheumatoid Arthritis and Malignant Lymphomas
Abstract : Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are at increased risk of developing malignant lymphoma, although details about this association remain unclear. The aims of this thesis were to investigate risk factors for lymphoma in patients with RA and to characterize these lymphomas regarding subtype, presence of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), clinical manifestations and prognosis.
