Bone Abstracts

Bone disease is the most frequent complication in multiple myeloma (MM) resulting in pain, bone fractures, spinal cord compression and hypercalcemia. Within the bone marrow microenvironment (BMM), MM cells interact with bone cells to enhance bone resorption activity and compromise new bone formation mechanism; in turn, BMM provides a survival and drug resistance framework by interaction of MM cells with bone marrow components. Exosomes are important mediators of crosstalk betw...
