Background: LINC00461 has been implicated to be involved in several types of cancer while its roles in multiple myeloma remain unclear. Our study aims to investigate the roles of LINC00461 in multiple myeloma and explore its effects on ixazomib therapy.
Methods: LINC00461 and small nuclear ribonucleoprotein polypeptide (SNRP) B2 knockdown stable cell lines were constructed. Cell viability assays including MTT, cell number counting, and colony formation were performed. RNA-pull down and immunoblotting assays were conducted to determine the intramolecular interactions. qRT-PCR and western blotting were conducted to determine the levels of target genes. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to evaluate overall survival rates.
Results: Knockdown of LINC00461 or SNRPB2 enhanced ixazomib's cytotoxicity, as well as affected its regulatory effects on cell apoptosis and cell cycle distribution. Further results showed that LINC00461 knockdown reduced the expression levels of SNRPB2 by their interactions. Additionally, a positive correlation between LINC00461 and SNRPB2 was found in patients with multiple myeloma. Low expression of SNRPB2 was associated with a high survival rate in patients with multiple myeloma.
Conclusion: Knockdown of LINC00461 enhanced the therapeutic effects of ixazomib against multiple myeloma in part by the regulation of SNRPB2.

Background: Polyclonal autologous T cells that are epigenetically reprogrammed through mTOR inhibition and IFN-α polarization (RAPA-201) represent a novel approach to the adoptive T cell therapy of cancer. Ex vivo inhibition of mTOR results causes a shift towards T central memory (T) whereas ex vivo IFN-α promotes type I cytokines, with each of these functions known to enhance the adoptive T cell therapy of cancer. Rapamycin-resistant T cells polarized for a type II cytokine phenotype were previously evaluated in the allogeneic transplantation context.

Toll-like receptor (TLRs) activation in multiple myeloma (MM) cells induces heterogeneous functional responses including cell growth and proliferation, survival or apoptosis. These effects have been suggested to be partly due to increase in secretion of cytokines such as IL-6 or IFNα among others from MM cells following TLR activation. However, whether triggering of these receptors also modulates production of immunoglobulin free light chains (FLCs), which largely contribute to MM pathology, has not been investigated in MM cells before.

Introduction: Mitochondria and angiogenesis play key roles in multiple myeloma (MM) development, but their interrelated genes affecting MM prognosis are under-studied.
Methods: We analyzed TCGA_MMRF and GSE4581 datasets to identify four genes - CCNB1, CDC25C, HSP90AA1, and PARP1 - that significantly correlate with MM prognosis, with high expression indicating poor outcomes.
Results: A prognostic signature based on these genes stratified patients into high- and low-risk groups, with the latter showing better survival.

Background: Secondary acute lymphoblastic leukemia (sALL) is rare in patients diagnosed with antecedent multiple myeloma (MM). This study aimed to elucidate the clinical features and outcomes of patients with sALL after MM.
Methods: We conducted this population-based study using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database and retrospectively reviewed patients with sALL following MM treatment at our institution.

Multiple myeloma (MM) represents a difficult-to-treat plasma cell malignancy and the second most common hematologic malignancy in adults, significantly impacting kidney function. The spectrum of kidney involvement in MM is broad, encompassing electrolyte imbalances, tubular injury, and even rare glomerular diseases. The evolution of MM treatment modalities has led to notable improvements in the long-term survival of patients experiencing kidney-related complications.
