Abstract excerpt
Abnormalities of regulatory genes in early B-cell development often lead to lymphomagenesis. Our previous study showed that there is an abnormal transient expansion of bone marrow (BM) pre-B cells in lymphoma-prone SL/Kh strain mice. Such expansion is a genetic property of SL/Kh stem cells rather than BM microenvironments. Using the percentage of BP1+ B220+ pre-B cells in total BM lymphoid cells as a quantitative...
