Aberrant activation of the B cell receptor (BCR) is an emerging hallmark of mature B cell tumors. The BCR initiates a signaling cascade that activates multiple kinases, including SYK, BTK and PI3K?, leading to engagement of the NF-?B, PI3K/AKT, RAS and MAPK pathways, thus promoting proliferation/survival of B cells. Considering this pro-growth outcome, it is not surprising that malignant B cells hijack this signaling module for their benefit.
