LYN kinase programs stromal fibroblasts to facilitate leukemic survival via regulation of c-JUN and THBS1

The survival of chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells strongly depends on the presence of a supportive microenvironment. Here, the authors show that LYN kinase is essential for the reprogramming of stromal cells towards a leukemia-supportive phenotype that facilitates disease progression.
