Introduction: CD20+ T-cells were described firstly in peripheral blood and later in bone marrow in patients with hematological tumors, and certain immune-mediated diseases. During our hematological diagnostic work, this peculiar subgroup of lymphocytes has been consistently observed associated with untreated monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) and myeloma (MM). Despite the expanding literature data, the exact function of CD20+ T cells remains unclear.

Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignant disease of plasma cells that accounts for approximately 10% of all hematological malignancies and is characterized by a clonal proliferation of malignant plasma cells in the bone marrow. Numerous therapeutic strategies, including proteasome inhibitors, immunomodulators, monoclonal antibodies against CD38 and autologous stem cell transplantation, have prolonged the median survival of MM patients. Nevertheless, almost all MM patients suffer disease relapses due to drug resistance and eventually die from MM or MM-related complications.

Objectives: Multiple myeloma (MM) is an incurable hematological malignancy, Dual-specificity phosphatase-1 (DUSP1) plays a crucial role in the initiation and progression of various tumors. Here, we aim to elucidate the role of DUSP1 in MM.

Methods: DUSP1 mRNA expression was analyzed based on public datasets, and protein expression was determined by immunohistochemistry.

CD19 and CXCR4 are pivotal regulators of B-cell activation and migration, respectively. Specifically, CXCR4 signaling critically influences the dissemination of various malignant B cells through constitutive activation and aberrant expression. This study explores the interaction between CD19 and CXCR4 signaling in the context of B-cell lymphomas, particularly focusing on diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and Waldenström Macroglobulinemia (WM).

Natural killer (NK) cells are a promising approach for cellular cancer immunotherapy and are being investigated to treat patients with multiple myeloma (MM). We found that MM patient blood NK cell frequencies were normal with increased activating receptors and cytotoxic granules, without evidence of functional exhaustion. Despite this activated state, MM target cells were resistant to conventional NK cells by unclear mechanisms.
