Research Abstract

Pim-2 kinase is up-regulated in both myeloma cells and bone marrow stromal cells through their mutual interaction in bone lesions in myeloma, and plays a pivotal role in tumor survival and the suppression of osteoblastogenesis with bone loss in myeloma. Treatment with Pim inhibitiors appears to induce myeloma cell death and restore its drug sensitivity through abrogating a drug efflux pump function. Further, Pim inhibitors induce bone formation suppressed in myeloma. Therefore, Pim-2 inhibition may become an important therapeutic option to target a myeloma-bone marrow interaction, which causes drug resistance and bone destruction.
