Abstract

Chronic lymphocyte leukemia proliferation Richter's TGF-β
A patient with chronic lymphocytic leukemia developed a large cell lymphoma apparently derived from the same neoplastic B-cell clone (Richter's syndrome). At the same time, mitogen-stimulated proliferation of the patient's circulating leukemic B-cells was no longer inhibited by the regulatory cytokine transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β), suggesting that such loss of inhibition might be contributing to the clinical and biological progression of the disease.
