2. Immunoglobulin light chain - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immunoglobulin_light_chain

   Once set, light chain class remains fixed for the life of the B lymphocyte. In a healthy individual, the total kappa-to-lambda ratio is roughly 2:1 in serum (measuring intact whole antibodies) or 1:1.5 if measuring free light chains, with a highly divergent ratio indicative of neoplasm. The free light chain ratio ranges from 0.26 to 1.65. [1]

3. Monoclonal B-cell lymphocytosis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monoclonal_B-cell_lymphocy...

   Mantle cell lymphoma: The monoclonal B-cells in this aggressive lymphoma are CD5+ in most cases, CD10−, CD23−, CD43+, CD103−, complete Ig+, and express cyclin D1; these cells have translocations between chromosomes 11 and 14 in >95% of cases and in many cases overexpress the SOX11 transcription factor gene.

4. Mantle cell lymphoma - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mantle_cell_lymphoma

   MCL is a subtype of B-cell lymphoma, due to CD5 positive antigen-naive pregerminal center B-cell within the mantle zone that surrounds normal germinal center follicles. MCL cells generally over-express cyclin D1 due to the t(11:14) translocation , [ 6 ] a chromosomal translocation in the DNA .

5. B-cell lymphoma - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B-cell_lymphoma

   Micrograph showing Hodgkin's lymphoma, a type of B cell lymphoma that is usually considered separate from other B cell lymphomas. Field stain. CT scan of primary B cell lymphoma in the left ilium, as diffuse cortical and trabecular thickening of the hemipelvis, mimicking Paget's disease.

6. CD5 (protein) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CD5_(protein)

   CD5 is a good immunohistochemical marker for T-cells, although not as sensitive as CD3. About 76% of T-cell neoplasms are reported to express CD5, and it is also found in chronic lymphocytic leukemia and mantle cell lymphoma (both being B cell malignancies), that do not express CD3.

7. Serum free light-chain measurement - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serum_free_light-chain...

   Free light chains (FLCs) are immunoglobulin light chains that are found in the serum (blood) in an unbound (free) state. In recent decades, measuring the amount of free light chains (FLCs) in the blood has become a practical clinical test. FLC tests can be used to diagnose and monitor diseases like multiple myeloma and amyloidosis.

8. Splenic marginal zone lymphoma - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Splenic_marginal_zone_lymphoma

   Splenic marginal zone lymphoma (SMZL) is a type of marginal zone lymphoma, a cancer made up of B-cells that replace the normal architecture of the white pulp of the spleen. The neoplastic cells are both small lymphocytes and larger, transformed lymphoblasts , and they invade the mantle zone of splenic follicles and erode the marginal zone ...

9. Primary cutaneous diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, leg type

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primary_cutaneous_diffuse...

   It is to be distinguished from two other primary cutaneous lymphomas that involve B-cells, primary cutaneous follicle center lymphoma (PCFCL) and primary cutaneous marginal zone lymphoma (PCMZL), [8] as well as from a B-cell lymphoma that at diagnosis may appear to be limited to the skin but often is a systemic disease affecting numerous organs ...
