Evidence for Cell Adhesion-Mediated Drug Resistance of Multiple Myeloma Cells in Vivo
1 Oct 2006
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND/AIMS: Multiple myeloma is an incurable disease and patients eventually die of disease progression due to drug resistance. VLA-4 (very late antigen 4), VCAM (vascular adhesion molecule), LFA-1 (leukocyte function-associated antigen 1), and ICAM-1 (intercellular adhesion molecule 1)-mediated adhesion of myeloma cells to bone marrow stromal cells induces primary multidrug resistance in vitro. Based on...
