Hematopoiesis in MBL and CLL Versus Healthy Age-Matched Control Subjects
Start Date

Completion Date

Summary
This study evaluates hematopoiesis to determine how MBL/CLL affected bone marrow responds to fight off infections in the body.
Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the cellular and mechanistic basis of bone marrow (BM) hematopoietic dysfunction in untreated MBL and CLL patients. II. Determine if MBL and CLL B cell derived cellular products directly alter the differentiation and functional capacities of Hematopoietic Stem and Progenitor Cells (HSPCs). III. Utilize the Emu-Tcl1 transgenic mouse model to determine how MBL and CLL patient-derived cellular products alter BM hematopoiesis. OUTLINE: This is an observational study. Patients undergo blood sample collection and bone marrow aspiration and biopsy and have their medical records reviewed on study.
