Abstract
<b>Background and Objective:</b> Chronic Lymphocytic Leukaemia (CLL) is a frequent type of leukaemia disease. This study was focused on investigating the role of prognostic indicators, such as CD180 and MD-1 for Chronic Lymphocytic Leukaemia (CLL) pathogenesis because they involve cell signalling and proliferation. <b>Materials and Methods:</b> A total of 12 normal controls and 52 patients were taken to determine the expressions of CD180 and MD-1 with different variations in comparison with the IgVH (Immunoglobulin Heavy Chain variable region gene) mutational status, FISH (fluorescence <i>in situ</i> hybridization) and Rai staging. <b>Results:</b> The quantitative data findings were evident that CD180 and MD-1 expressions showed insignificant differences among CLL patients at the protein level based on SPSS results. On the contrary, they resulted in significant differences for subgroups of established biomarkers like Rai staging (stages 0, I, II and III), FISH (13q and non-13q deletions) and IgVH (mutated and unmutated). <b>Conclusion:</b> The CD180 and MD-1 have been used as prognostic indicators to evaluate the outcomes relevant to the cell cycle and survival rate of CLL cells.
