CUI: C0023434
Disease: Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Thus, SYK inhibition is a promising therapeutic strategy uniquely poised to antagonize crosstalk between BAFF and B-cell receptor, thereby disrupting the pro-survival microenvironment signaling in chronic lymphocytic leukemia. 28838991 2017
CUI: C0023434
Disease: Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Our results point to a possible association between the rs9514828 (CT vs. CC + TT; OR = 0.74; CI 95 % = 0.57; 0.97; p = 0.022) and rs1041569 (AT vs. AA + TT; OR = 0.72; CI 95 % = 0.54; 0.95; p = 0.021) of BAFF gene and rs61756766 (CC vs. CT; OR = 2.03; CI 95 % = 1.03; 3.99; p = 0.03) of BAFF-R gene and CLL risk. 27468724 2016
CUI: C0023434
Disease: Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Although the obtained P-values for all 20 SNPs did not reach statistical significance for this study (α = 0.003), the high value of the global chi-squared statistic (χ(2) df = 38  = 52.65; P = 0.0586), and obtained values of odds ratio indicate that rs9514828 (BAFF), rs3803800 (APRIL) and rs4985726 (TACI) may be associated with the risk of B-CLL. 26268376 2015
CUI: C0023434
Disease: Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Therefore, our study provides further evidence for the contribution of BAFF/APRIL signaling to CLL biology, suggesting also that TACI detection might be useful in the selection of patients for novel targeting therapeutic approaches. 25950010 2015
CUI: C0023434
Disease: Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
0.100 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE We further analysed the prognostic value of BAFF and APRIL receptors expression in patients with CLL. 24245956 2014
CUI: C0023434
Disease: Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Functional studies showed that signals through BAFF-system receptors impact the survival and basal proliferation of leukemia B-cell precursors, and support the involvement of both homotypic and heterotypic mechanisms.This study shows an unforeseen role for the BAFF-system in the biology of precursor B-cell leukemia, and suggests that the target disruption of BAFF signals may constitute a valid strategy for the treatment of this cancer. 21687682 2011
CUI: C0023434
Disease: Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE This study reveals an important relationship between BAFF and c-MYC in CLL which may affect disease development and progression, and suggests that inhibitors of the canonical NF-κB pathway may be effective in treatment of patients with this disease. 20956327 2010
CUI: C0023434
Disease: Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE In conclusion, our results indicate that in early B-cell CLL, the biological profile including among other parameters soluble BAFF may provide a useful insight into the complex interrelationship of prognostic variables. 20546021 2010
CUI: C0023434
Disease: Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
0.100 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE We also tested intracellular BAFF and APRIL expression in B-CLL and evaluated their prognostic relevance. 19395025 2009
CUI: C0023434
Disease: Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE This rGel/BLyS-mediated decrease in protein synthesis was associated with a decline in short-lived proteins such as MCL-1 and XIAP, the 2 survival proteins in B-CLL. 17119117 2007
CUI: C0023434
Disease: Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Moreover, a soluble form of BAFF was detected using surface-enhanced laser desorption/ionization-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (SELDI-TOF MS) in the sera of B-CLL patients but not of healthy donors. 14504101 2004
CUI: C0023434
Disease: Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
