Bone morphogenetic protein 4 gene therapy in mice inhibits myeloma tumor growth, but has a negative impact on bone
2019-03-13
Abstract excerpt
Multiple myeloma is characterized by accumulation of malignant plasma cells in the bone marrow. Most patients suffer from an osteolytic bone disease, caused by increased bone degradation and reduced bone formation. Bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP4) is important for both pre- and postnatal bone formation and induces growth arrest and apoptosis of myeloma cells. BMP4-treatment of myeloma patients could have the po...
