Mobilization of Myeloma Cells Involves SDF‐1/CXCR4 Signaling and Downregulation of VLA‐4
1 Jan 2004
Abstract excerpt
Adhesion molecules and stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1)/CXCR4 signaling play key roles in homing and mobilization of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC). Active signaling through SDF-1/CXCR4 and upregulation of adhesion molecules are required for homing, whereas downregulation of adhesion molecules and disruption of SDF-1/CXCR4 signaling are required for mobilization of HSC. We studied the surface expression of...
