Abstract excerpt
B cell neoplasms present heterogeneous patterns of lymphoid organ involvement, which may be a result of the differential expression of chemokine receptors. We found that chemokine receptor (CCR)7, CXC chemokine receptor (CXCR)4, or CXCR5, the main chemokine receptors that mediate B cell entry into secondary lymphoid tissues and their homing to T cell and B cell zones therein, were highly expressed in B...
