Aim: To investigate the effects of serum deprivation (SD) on microvesicles (MVs) secreted from human myeloma cells and the implications for disease progression.

Methods: RPMI 8226, U266, and KM3 human myeloma cells were incubated in medium containing 10% (non-SD) or 1% fetal bovine serum (SD) and MVs were isolated. The levels and size distribution of MVs were analyzed with flow cytometry. The protein profiles of MVs were studied using 2D SDS-PAGE, MALDI-TOF-MS, and Western blotting. NF-κB activation was analyzed using EMSA. Angiogenesis was examined in Eahy926 endothelial cells.

Results: Exposure of RPMI 8226 cells to SD for 24 h did not alter the number of apoptotic cells. However, SD increased the number of MVs from RPMI 8226, U266, and KM3 cells to 2.5-, 4.3-, and 3.8-fold, respectively. The size distribution of SD MVs was also significantly different from that of non-SD MVs. Three proteins ZNF224, SARM, and COBL in SD MVs were found to be up-regulated, which were involved in cell cycle regulation, signal transduction and metabolism, respectively. Co-culture of SD MVs and RPMI 8226 cells increased NF-κB activation in the target RPMI 8226 cells. Furthermore, SD MVs from RPMI 8226 cells significantly increased the microtubule formation capacity of Eahy926 endothelial cells compared with non-SD MVs.

Conclusion: SD elevates the levels of microvesicles with different size distribution and selectively enriched proteins in human myeloma cells in vitro. The selectively enriched proteins, especially ZNF224, may play key roles in regulation of myeloma cells, allowing better adaptation to SD.

Multiple myeloma (MM) malignant plasma cells accumulate in the bone marrow (BM) where their interactions with the microenvironment promote disease progression and drug resistance. Previously, we have shown that bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) (MM and normal donors- ND) derived extracellular matrix (ECM) affected MM cell lines differentially with a pro-MM effect attributed to MM-MSCs' ECM. Here we studied the composition of BM-MSC's ECM (ND versus MM) with focus on elastin (ELN).

The current comprehensive study showcases a meticulous synthesis of novel class of α-benzilmonoxime thiocarbohydrazide (BMOTC) derivatives, and manifesting their multifaceted potential as antibacterial, antifungal, and anticancer agents. The synthesis of target compounds was performed in three phases using literature methods. In the first step, benzilmonoxime is synthesized using benzil and hydroxyl amine hydrochloride, followed by benzilmonoxime imine using thiocarbohydrazide.

Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematological malignancy characterized by the unrestricted proliferation of plasma cells that secrete immunoglobulin in the bone marrow. Extracted primarily from Anemone raddeana regel, Raddeanin A (RA) is a natural triterpenoid saponin compound with anti-inflammatory and anti-tumor activities. However, most research on the anti-tumor effects of RA has concentrated on solid tumors, with little exploration into non-solid tumors like MM.

Complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC) is a primary mechanism-of-action of monoclonal antibody (mAb) immunotherapies used to treat haematological cancers, including rituximab and daratumumab. However, mAb efficacy may be limited by reduced bioavailability of complement C1q - which activates the complement classical pathway following interactions with mAb-opsonised target cells. C1q is secreted by phagocytes upon recruitment to sites of muscle damage to facilitate muscular repair, hence we hypothesised that muscle damaging exercise may increase C1q 'spill-over' into blood.

Objective: To investigate the effects of and genes on the sensitivity of multiple myeloma (MM) cell line RPMI-8226 cells to ferroptosis.

Methods: CRISPR/Cas9 technology was used to knock out the autophagy key genes and in RPMI-8226 cells. Western blot was used to identify gene knockout cells, and detect the expression changes of autophagy-related proteins P62 and LC3B.
