Description:
Tumors derived from B-cells are common in man. The
tumors represent clonal amplifications of B cells
arrested at various stages of differentiation and
have quite specific genetic alterations. The most
common childhood leukemia, and the chronic
lymphocytic leukemia of adults, belong to this
category of tumors. Also the most common lymphomas
and multiple myeloma are important examples of
B-cell tumors.
