Myeloma is a condition in which plasma cells, the cells in bone marrow that produce antibodies, become cancerous. It is sometimes referred to as plasma cell dyscrasia or plasma cell myeloma, and most commonly as multiple myeloma (MM). Multiple myeloma is the most common form found in ...
Autologous stem cell transplantation, which involves removing stem cells from a patient, giving chemotherapy, then returning the stem cells to the patient, is an option for some patients. After intensive therapy, most patients with multiple myeloma take low-dose chemotherapy to keep the disease ...
Plasma cell dyscrasia is a cancer of the plasma cells, with multiple myeloma being a well-known example. In patients with this type of cancer, a rogue plasma cell starts reproducing uncontrollably, leading to changes in blood chemistry and causing symptoms like anemia and fatigue. Treatment for...

Abnormal tumor microenvironment and immune escape in multiple myeloma (MM) are associated with regulatory T cells (Tregs), which play an important role in maintaining self-tolerance and regulating the overall immune response to infection or tumor cells.
Multiple myeloma is a type of blood cancer that attacks the plasma cells in bone marrow. The most common signs of multiple myeloma...
Sep 18, 2024 - This article defines and reviews the potential of stem cell therapy as a promising treatment option for various medical conditions. It also discusses and defines stem cells and their importance in the field of regenerative medicine.
Cells have to genetically engineered to produce the desired monoclonal antibody. Viral antigens (like SARS-CoV-2 spike proteins) are injected into animal cells, and the B cells that produce antibodies are mixed withmyelomacells so that hybrid cells form in cell cultures. ...
