A-05 Novel Therapeutic Strategy for B Cell Malignant Lymphocyte


Technology Benefits

ΓùÅ CD20 negatively converted B cell malignant lymphocyte cell line is availableΓùÅ An animal model indicating the pathological conditions of CD20-negatively converted B cell malignant lymphocyte is availableΓùÅ A method is available for screening a substance which is efficacious against CD20 positive B cell malignant lymphocyte or CD20-negatively converted B cell malignant lymphocyte.


Technology Application

ΓùÅ Treatment for rituximab resistant B cell malignant lymphocyteΓùÅ Screening agent for rituximab resistant B cell malignant lymphocyte


Detailed Technology Description

A) RRBL1 is CD20 negative, resistant to rituximab B cell malignant lymphocyte. Isolated rituximab resistant B cell malignant lymphocyte. This cell line shows rituximab resistance in vitro and feasible to be transplanted into an immunodeficient mouse.B) Induction of CD20 expression by RRBL1 treatment. CD20-negative conversion phenomena after treatment with rituximab is detected in ┬╝ of recurrence. Treating this cell line by various drugs, an effective condition was verified which would induce CD20 expression. This condition will induce protein expression of CD20 on the cell surface.
