Abstract

Multiple myeloma is an incurable cancer of the bone marrow that is dependent on its microenvironment, including bone marrow adipocytes (BMAds). Here, we discuss our findings that the reciprocal interaction of myeloma cells and BMAds, leads to myeloma cell survival and induces metabolic dysfunction and senescence-associated secretory phenotype in BMAds.
