Thioredoxin prolongs survival of B-type chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells.

abstract：:Mature megakaryocytes depend on the function of Bcl-x(L), a member of the Bcl-2 family of prosurvival proteins, to proceed safely through the process of platelet shedding. Despite this, loss of Bcl-x(L) does not prevent the growth and maturation of megakaryocytes, suggesting redundancy with other prosurvival proteins....

In this investigation, we explored the possibility that collaboration might exist between these cells. TIL-T were isolated from 39 lymph nodes of patients with NHL. In most of the cases, few of them (less than 1...
