Bortezomib and zoledronic acid on angiogenic and vasculogenic activities of bone marrow macrophages in patients with multiple myeloma

Reads0
Chats0
TLDR
Evidence is provided that the exposure of bone marrow macrophages in MM during the treatment with ZOL and BZ, alone and or in combination, impacts their angiogenic and vasculogenic properties, suggesting that these cells may be considered as a target of both drugs in MM patients.

Galectin-3C inhibits tumor growth and increases the anticancer activity of bortezomib in a murine model of human multiple myeloma.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that galectin-3C alone was efficacious in a xenograft mouse model of human MM, and that it enhanced the anti-tumor activity of bortezomib in vitro and in vivo.

Immunomodulatory effects of anti-angiogenic drugs.

TL;DR: Recent reports on the immunomodulatory function of lately introduced clinically applied anti-angiogenic compounds, such as the humanized monoclonal antibody against VEGF bevacizumab, the small molecule TKIs sunitinib, sorafenib, imatinib, dasatinIB, nilotinib and the proteasome inhibitor bortezomib are summarized.

The proteasome inhibitor PS-341 inhibits growth, induces apoptosis, and overcomes drug resistance in human multiple myeloma cells.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the proteasome inhibitor PS-341 both acts directly on MM cells and alters cellular interactions and cytokine secretion in the BM millieu to inhibit tumor cell growth, induce apoptosis, and overcome drug resistance.
