New treatment strategies. 330 $aMultiple Myeloma (MM), the second most common blood cancer in adults, is a clonal plasma cell malignancy within the bone marrow characterized by osteolytic bone lesions, renal disease, and immunodeficiency. It is now well established that MM cell- induced disruption of the bone marrow homeostasis between the highly organized cellular and extracellular compartments supports MM cell proliferation, survival, migration, and drug resistance via activation of various signaling pathways. Based on this knowledge, the prototypic drugs thalidomide, bortezomib, and lenalidomide, which target both MM cell 606 $aMultiple myeloma$xTreatment 615 0$aMultiple myeloma$xTreatment. 676 $a616.99/418 676 $a616.99418 700 $aPodar$b Klaus, $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01800395 701 $aPodar$b Klaus$01800395 701 $aAnderson$b Kenneth C$0876632 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910969216603321 996 $aMultiple myeloma$94345157 997 $aUNINA
