Metabolic features of myeloma cells in the context of bone microenvironment: Implication for the pathophysiology and clinic of myeloma bone disease
Open accessAbstract
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematological malignancy characterized by the accumulation of malignant plasma cells (PCs) into the bone marrow (BM). The complex interaction between the BM microenvironment and MM PCs can lead to severe impairment of bone remodeling. Indeed, the BM microenvironment exerts a critical role in the survival of malignant PCs. Growing evidence indicates that MM cells have several metabolic features including enhanced glycolysis and an increase in lactate production through the upregulation of glucose transporters and enzymes. More recently, it has been reported that MM cells arehighly glutamine addicted. Interestingly, these metabolic changes in MM cells may affect BM microenvironment cells by altering the differentiation process of osteoblasts from mesenchymal stromal cells. The identification of glutamine metabolism alterations in MM cells and bone microenvironment may provide a rationale to design new therapeutic approaches and diagnostic tools. The osteolytic lesions are the most frequent clinical features in MM patients, often characterized by pathological fractures and acute pain. The use of the newer imaging techniques such as Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and combined Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and Computerized Tomography (CT) has been introduced into clinical practice to better define the skeletal involvement. Currently, the PET/CT with 18 F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) is the diagnostic gold standard to detect active MM bone disease due to the high glycolytic activity of MM cells. However, new tracers are actively under investigation because a portion of MM patients remains negative at the skeletal level by 18 F-FDG. In this review, we will summarize the existing knowledge on the metabolic alterations of MM cells considering their impact on the BM microenvironment cells and particularly in the subsequent formation of osteolytic bone lesions. Based on this, we will discuss the identification of possible new druggable targets and the use of novel metabolic targets for PET imaging in the detection of skeletal lesions, in the staging and treatment response of MM patients.

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.
