Follicular lymphoma evolves with a surmountable dependency on acquired glycosylation motifs in the B-cell receptor
8 Sept 2023
Abstract excerpt
ABSTRACT: An early event in the genesis of follicular lymphoma (FL) is the acquisition of new glycosylation motifs in the B-cell receptor (BCR) due to gene rearrangement and/or somatic hypermutation. These N-linked glycosylation motifs (N-motifs) contain mannose-terminated glycans and can interact with lectins in the tumor microenvironment, activating the tumor BCR pathway. N-motifs are stable during FL...
