Upregulated expression and function of the α4β1 integrin in multiple myeloma cells resistant to bortezomib
5 Jun 2020
Abstract excerpt
The interaction of multiple myeloma (MM) cells with the bone marrow (BM) microenvironment promotes MM cell retention, survival, and resistance to different anti-MM agents, including proteasome inhibitors (PIs) such as bortezomib (BTZ). The α4β1 integrin is a main adhesion receptor mediating MM cell-stroma interactions and MM cell survival, and its expression and function are downregulated by BTZ, leading to...
