Abstract

Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cell (BMSC) is one crucial component of the multiple myeloma (MM) microenvironment and supports the malignant progression of MM. Whether BMSCs act on MM cells via exosomes has not been well characterized. Herein, we used microarrays to screen out differentially expressed miRNAs in BMSCs from patients with MM (MM-MSCs) or benign diseases (BD-MSCs). We found that miR-483-5p was highly expressed in MM-MSCs, which may be transported through exosomes from MM-MSCs to MM cells to increase miR-483-5p expression in them. We then investigated the role and mechanism of miR-483-5p in the aggressive progression of MM in vitro. We verified that miR-483-5p promoted MM cell proliferation and reduced apoptosis. Then we predicted and validated that TIMP2, a tumor suppressor gene, is the downstream target of miR-483-5p in MM. In summary, our study indicated that MM-MSCs promote MM malignant progression via the release of exosomes and regulation of miR-483-5p/TIMP2 axis, suggesting an essential role of BMSCs derived exosomal miRNA in MM and a potential marker for MM diagnosis and therapy.

  • Exosomal miR-483-5p produced from bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells stimulates the tumor suppressor gene TIMP2 to advance the malignant development of multiple myeloma.

    “In addition, investigations demonstrate the importance of exosomal miR-483-5p produced from BM-MSCs in stimulating the tumor suppressor gene TIMP2 to advance the malignant development of MM [270].”

    From Mesenchymal stromal cells in bone marrow niche of patients with multiple myeloma: a double-edged sword (2025) · cites this paper as [270]

    The Discussion says exosomal miR-483-5p from MM-MSCs favors multiple myeloma progression, but it does not stimulate TIMP2. The Results section “TIMP2 Is the Target of miR-483-5p” reports that miR-483-5p decreases TIMP2 mRNA and protein expression—the opposite of the claimed mechanism. (LLM, conf=0.93)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
