    • 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 ...
    • Deep Response in Multiple Myeloma: A Critical Review 

      Fulciniti, Mariateresa; Munshi, Nikhil C.; Martinez-Lopez, Joaquin (Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2015)
      Novel and more effective treatment strategies against multiple myeloma (MM) have significantly prolonged patients' survival and raised interest in the depth of response and its association with clinical outcome. Minimal ...
    • 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)
      Multiple myeloma is an incurable plasma cell malignancy with a complex and incompletely understood molecular pathogenesis. Here we use whole-exome sequencing, copy-number profiling and cytogenetics to analyse 84 myeloma ...
    • miR-29b sensitizes multiple myeloma cells to bortezomib-induced apoptosis through the activation of a feedback loop with the transcription factor Sp1 

      Amodio, N; Di Martino, M T; Foresta, U; Leone, E; Lionetti, M; Leotta, M; Gullà, A M; Pitari, M R; Conforti, F; Rossi, M; Agosti, V; Fulciniti, M; Misso, G; Morabito, F; Ferrarini, M; Neri, A; Caraglia, M; Munshi, N C; Anderson, Kenneth Carl; Tagliaferri, P; Tassone, P (Nature Publishing Group, 2012)
      MicroRNAs (miRNAs) with tumor-suppressor potential might have therapeutic applications in multiple myeloma (MM) through the modulation of still undiscovered molecular pathways. Here, we investigated the effects of enforced ...
    • A Novel Role for CCL3 (MIP-1α) in Myeloma-induced Bone Disease via Osteocalcin Downregulation and Inhibition of Osteoblast Function 

      Vallet, Sonia; Pozzi, Samantha; Patel, Kishan; Vaghela, Nileshwari; Fulciniti, MariaTeresa; Veiby, Petter; Hideshima, Teru; Santo, Loredana; Cirstea, Diana; Scadden, David T; Anderson, Kenneth C; Raje, Noopur (2014)
      Upregulation of cytokines and chemokines is a frequent finding in multiple myeloma (MM). CCL3 (also known as MIP-1α) is a pro-inflammatory chemokine whose levels in the MM microenvironment correlate with osteolytic lesions ...
    • Targeting homologous recombination and telomerase in Barrett’s adenocarcinoma: Impact on telomere maintenance, genomic instability, and tumor growth 

      Lu, Renquan; Pal, Jagannath; Buon, Leutz; Nanjappa, Puru; Shi, Jialan; Fulciniti, Mariateresa; Tai, Yu-Tzu; Guo, Lin; Yu, Min; Gryaznov, Sergei; Munshi, Nikhil C.; Shammas, Masood A. (2014)
      Homologous recombination (HR), a mechanism to accurately repair DNA in normal cells, is deregulated in cancer. Elevated/deregulated HR is implicated in genomic instability and telomere maintenance, which are critical ...
    • Targeting IL-17A in Multiple Myeloma: A Potential Novel Therapeutic Approach in Myeloma 

      Prabhala, Rao H.; Fulciniti, Mariateresa; Pelluru, Dheeraj; Rashid, Naim; Nigroiu, Andreea; Nanjappa, Puru; Pai, Christine; Lee, Saem; Prabhala, Nithya S.; Bandi, Rajya Lakshmi; Smith, Robert; Lazo-Kallanian, Suzan B.; Valet, Sonia; Raje, Noopur; Gold, Jason S.; Richardson, Paul G.; Daley, John F.; Anderson, Kenneth C.; Ettenberg, Seth A.; Di Padova, Franco; Munshi, Nikhil C. (2015)
      We have previously demonstrated that interleukin-17A (IL-17) producing Th17 cells are significantly elevated in blood and bone marrow (BM) in multiple myeloma (MM) and IL-17A promotes MM cell growth via the expression of ...
    • Transcription factor-pathway co-expression analysis reveals cooperation between SP1 and ESR1 on dysregulating cell cycle arrest in non-hyperdiploid multiple myeloma 

      Wang, Xujun; Yan, Zhenyu; Fulciniti, Mariateresa; Li, Yingxiang; Gkotzamanidou, Maria; Amin, Samir B; Shah, Parantu K; Zhang, Yong; Munshi, Nikhil C; Li, Cheng (2014)
      Multiple myeloma is a hematological cancer of plasma B-cells and remains incurable. Two major subtypes of myeloma, hyperdiploid (HMM) and non-hyperdiploid myeloma (NHMM), have distinct chromosomal alterations and different ...
