I have a central role in all research projects focusing on the role of noncoding RNAs. My main aim is to understanding how small and long non-coding RNAs contribute to the pathogenesis of B-cell lymphoma. Ongoing studies include MYC-regulated miRNAs and lncRNAs, as well as miRNA-lncRNA interactions and the role of circular RNAs. We apply state-of-the-art methodology including AGO2-RIP, RNA-FISH and gain- and loss-of-function screens using shRNA and CRISPR-Cas technology.

Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) is characterized by a minority of neoplastic cells, the so-called Reed-Sternberg (RS) cells and a vast majority of reactive cells. RS cells produce chemokines that can attract subsets of peripheral blood cells into HL tissues. To gain insight in the chemokines involved in HL, 16 chemokines were selected based on their ability to recruit different subsets of cells. Five HL, 5 non-HL-derived cell lines, 22 HL, 5 non-HL and 3 control tissues were analyzed by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Products for 13 of these...
Chemokines, cytokines and their receptors in Hodgkin’s lymphoma cell lines and tissues
Background: Hodgkin’s lymphoma (HL) is characterized by a minority of neoplastic cells, the so-called Reed-Sternberg (RS) cells, and an admixture of reactive cells including lymphocytes, plasma cells, eosinophils and histiocytes. Cytokines produced in HL, either by RS or infiltrating cells, might explain the presence and maintenance of an impaired immune response, Chemokines (cytokines with chemoattractant properties) produced by RS cells play a major role in leukocyte trafficking. These molecules with specific receptor affinities contribute, for example by attracting TH2-like T cells, to the maintenance of a favorable environment...
