Bortezomib resistance in multiple myeloma (MM) is a significant clinical challenge that limits the long-term effectiveness. Currently, there is a lack of reliable biomarkers to predict bortezomib resistance. Previous studies reported that several proteins regulate bortezomib resistance through targeting ubiquitin-proteasome pathways, including heat shock protein family A member 9 (HSPA9), dickkopf Wnt signaling pathway inhibitor 1 (DKK1), proteasome 26S subunit non-ATPase 14 (PSMD14), and tripartite motif containing 21 (TRIM21).

Background/aims: Despite medical advances in recent decades, the mortality rate of advanced liver cirrhosis remains high. Although liver transplantation remains the most effective treatment, candidate selection is limited by donor availability and alcohol abstinence requirements. Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cell (BM-MSC) transplantation has shown promise for the treatment of advanced cirrhosis.

Aims: We aimed to analyze CD63, a cell surface protein that has been associated with tumor aggressiveness in several cancers, including breast, colorectal, and lung cancer, as well as melanoma, in prostate cancer.

Methods: CD63 expression was analyzed immunohistochemically in a cohort of primary prostate cancers from 281 patients. The results were correlated with clinico-pathologic parameters, including biochemical recurrence.

Cereblon upregulation overcomes thalidomide resistance in multiple myeloma through mitochondrial functional reprogramming.

BMB Rep

September 2025

Patients with multiple myeloma develop resistance to thalidomide during therapy, and the mechanisms to counteract thalidomide resistance remain elusive. Here, we explored the interaction between cereblon and mitochondrial function to mitigate thalidomide resistance in multiple myeloma. Measurements of cell viability, ATP production, mitochondrial membrane potential, mitochondrial ROS, and protein expression via western blotting were conducted in vitro using KSM20 and KMS26 cells to assess the impact of thalidomide on multiple myeloma.
