(Public Library of Science, 2015)
      Heat shock protein (HSP)90 inhibitors have shown significant anti-tumor activities in preclinical settings in both solid and hematological tumors. We previously reported that the novel, orally available HSP90α/β inhibitor ...
    • The Cyclophilin A-CD147 complex promotes bone marrow colonization of B-cell malignancies: implications for therapy 

      Zhu, Di; Wang, Zhongqiu; Zhao, Jian-Jun; Calimeri, Teresa; Meng, Jiang; Hideshima, Teru; Fulciniti, Mariateresa; Kang, Yue; Ficarro, Scott; Tai, Yu-Tzu; Hunter, Zachary; McMilin, Douglas; Tong, Haoxuan; Mitsiades, Constantine S.; Wu, Catherine; Treon, Steven; Dorfman, David M.; Pinkus, Geraldine; Munshi, Nikhil; Tassone, Pierfrancesco; Marto, Jarrod; Anderson, Kenneth; Carrasco, Ruben D. (2015)
      B-cell malignancies frequently colonizes the bone marrow (BM). The mechanisms responsible for this preferential homing are not entirely known. Using multiple myeloma (MM) as a model of a terminally differentiated B-cell ...
    • Heterogeneity of genomic evolution and mutational profiles in multiple myeloma 

      Bolli, Niccolo; Avet-Loiseau, Hervé; Wedge, David C.; Van Loo, Peter; Alexandrov, Ludmil B.; Martincorena, Inigo; Dawson, Kevin J.; Iorio, Francesco; Nik-Zainal, Serena; Bignell, Graham R.; Hinton, Jonathan W.; Li, Yilong; Tubio, Jose M.C.; McLaren, Stuart; O' Meara, Sarah; Butler, Adam P.; Teague, Jon W.; Mudie, Laura; Anderson, Elizabeth; Rashid, Naim; Tai, Yu-Tzu; Shammas, Masood A.; Sperling, Adam S.; Fulciniti, Mariateresa; Richardson, Paul G.; Parmigiani, Giovanni; Magrangeas, Florence; Minvielle, Stephane; Moreau, Philippe; Attal, Michel; Facon, Thierry; Futreal, P Andrew; Anderson, Kenneth C.; Campbell, Peter J.; Munshi, Nikhil C. (Nature Pub. Group, 2014)
