== Overview ==
[[B cell|B-cell]] [[prolymphocytic leukemia]] arises from mature [[B-cells]], which are [[Hematology|hematologic]] [[white cells]] that are normally involved in the in the [[humoral immunity]] component of the [[adaptive immune system]] by secreting [[antibodies]].
==Pathophysiology==
==Pathophysiology==
It is postulated that the originating cell line for this disease is a mature B-cell. Due to the systemic nature of this disease, leukemic cells can be found in peripheral blood, lymph nodes, bone marrow, spleen, liver, skin.
