| Abstract: |
In recent years, several genetic and epigenetic alterations have been identified and linked with deregulated signaling pathways that promote growth and survival of lymphoma cells. These discoveries have raised hopes that a new era of targeted therapy will eventually improve treatment outcome of lymphoma. In this focused review, we summarize emerging preclinical and clinical data supporting the development of novel agents targeting B cell receptor signaling, phosphoinositol-3-kinase/AKT/mammalian target of rapamycin (PI3K/AKT/mTOR) and Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK/STAT) oncogenic pathways. Furthermore, we discuss new data on targeting chromatin modulating mechanisms. © 2013 Informa UK, Ltd. |
