Myeloma bone disease: pathogenesis and treatment.
نویسنده
چکیده
Treatment regimens for multiple myeloma are evolving because of new advances in both pharmacotherapy and transplantation strategies. The Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation (MMRF) has gathered the top thought leaders in myeloma research to prepare an engaging, interactive series of case studies in multiple myeloma, which are available online at www.multiplemyeloma.org and are published on a regular basis in ONCOLOGY. For more information about the interactive series, see the MMRF ad on page 1089.

Successful Treatment of Monoclonal Gammopathy of Renal Significance With Bortezomib in the Setting of Post- Viral SARs-CoV-2 Infection: Case Report
Introduction: Monoclonal Gammopathy of Renal Significance (MGRS) is an immunoglobulin proliferative disorder that leads to the destruction of the renal glomerular basement membrane and progression to end-stage renal disease. The pathogenesis of MGRS is similar to that of multiple myeloma and chronic lymphocytic lymphoma but lacks criteria for either disease. This inability to characterize the d...
متن کاملIn vitro Effect of Pomalidomide on Bone Marrow Mononuclear Cells from Multiple Myeloma Patients
Background: Many features of anticancer drugs, including cytotoxicity and/or cytokine induction, are studied using cell lines orhuman blood leukocytes. However, in a disease such as multiple myeloma, most cancerous cells are resided within bone marrowmononuclear cells. In the present study, we investigated the effect of pomalidomide on apoptosis and IL-2 production of bonemarrow mononuclear cel...

متن کاملMultiple myeloma/hypercalcemia
Multiple myeloma, a cancer of plasma cells, is associated with excessive tumor-induced, osteoclast-mediated bone destruction. Hypercalcemia remains the most frequent metabolic complication of myeloma in patients, and excessive osteolysis plays a major contributory role in its pathogenesis. The clinical presentation of hypercalcemia in patients varies depending on the level of ionized calcium; i...

متن کاملHost-derived adiponectin is tumor-suppressive and a novel therapeutic target for multiple myeloma and the associated bone disease.
The contributions of the host microenvironment to the pathogenesis of multiple myeloma, including progression from the non-malignant disorder monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance, are poorly understood. In the present study, microarray analysis of a murine model requiring a unique host microenvironment for myeloma development identified decreased host-derived adiponectin compared ...
