Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematologic cancer characterized by uncontrolled growth of malignant plasma cells in the bone marrow and currently is incurable. The bone marrow microenvironment plays a critical role in MM. MM cells reside in specialized niches where they interact with multiple marrow cell types, transforming the bone/bone marrow compartment into an ideal microenvironment for the migration, proliferation, and survival of MM cells. In addition, MM cells interact with bone cells to stimulate bone destruction and promote the development of bone lesions that rarely heal. In this review, we discuss how Notch signals facilitate the communication between adjacent MM cells and between MM cells and bone/bone marrow cells and shape the microenvironment to favor MM progression and bone disease. We also address the potential and therapeutic approaches used to target Notch signaling in MM.
多发性骨髓瘤(MM)是一种血液系统癌症,其特征是骨髓中恶性浆细胞不受控制地生长,目前无法治愈。骨髓微环境在MM中起着关键作用。MM细胞存在于特定的龛位中,在那里它们与多种骨髓细胞类型相互作用,将骨/骨髓区室转变为MM细胞迁移、增殖和存活的理想微环境。此外,MM细胞与骨细胞相互作用,刺激骨质破坏并促进很少愈合的骨病变的发展。在本综述中,我们讨论了Notch信号如何促进相邻MM细胞之间以及MM细胞与骨/骨髓细胞之间的通讯,并塑造有利于MM进展和骨疾病的微环境。我们还阐述了针对MM中Notch信号传导的潜在方法和治疗途径。
