Abstract excerpt
Microarray-based gene expression profiling (GEP) was used to study how stroma modulates the survival of CLL cells in an in vitro coculture model employing the murine fibroblast cell line M2-10B4. CLL cells cultured in direct contact with the stromal layer (STR) showed a significantly better survival than cells cultured in transwell (TW) inserts above the M2-10B4 cells. STR as compared to TW conditions induced a...
