Therapeutic targeting of the BCL6 oncogene for diffuse large B-cell lymphomas
1 Jan 2008
Abstract excerpt
BCL6 is a transcriptional repressor often expressed constitutively in diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCL) due to mutations of its genomic locus. BCL6 mediates aberrant survival, proliferation, genomic instability and differentiation blockade in DLBCL cells. The biochemical study of BCL6 mediated gene repression has provided the basis for design of agents that inhibit BCL6 and kill lymphoma cells. The repressor...
