Developed or primary resistance limits the treatment success of inhibitors of the B cell receptor (BCR) pathway in mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) patients. Recent research has highlighted the role of the nuclear factor-kappa B (NF kappa B) pathway in the context of resistance to BCR inhibitors in MCL. In this study, we analyzed the dependency of MCL cell lines on NF kappa B signaling and illustrated the ability of CD40L to activate the alternative NF kappa B pathway in MCL. This activation leads to independency of classical NF kappa B signaling and results in resistance to BCR inhibitors. Therefore, ligands (such as CD40L) and their activation of the alternative NF kappa B pathway have a major impact on the drug response in MCL. Furthermore, this study indicates a protective role for cells expressing specific ligands as microenvironmental niches for MCL cells and underlines the significance of therapeutically targeting alternative NF kappa B signaling in MCL.

This also includes the investigations of the reactivity of the ligands used (NHCs and CaaCs = cyclic alkyl(amino)carbenes) with the substrates, i.e. diboron(4) esters and arylboronates, which are addressed in the second part of the thesis. N2 - Die dargelegte Arbeit gliedert sich in zwei Teile. In einem ersten wird die Synthese sowie stöchiometrische Modell-Reaktionen von definierten NHC-stabilisierten Kupfer(I)-Komplexen (NHC = N-heterocyclisches Carben) untersucht, um Einblick in das grundlegende Reaktionsverhalten in Borylierungs- und Kreuzkupplungsreaktionen zu erlangen. Der zweite Teil adressiert die Reaktivität der eingesetzten Liganden (NHCs und CaaCs = cyclische Alkyl Amino Carbene) gegenüber verwendeten sowie möglichen Substraten (Arylboronsäureester und Diboran(4)-Verbindungen).
