Bone matrix components activate the NLRP3 inflammasome and promote osteoclast differentiation

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
The NLRP3 inflammasome senses a variety of signals referred to as danger associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), including those triggered by crystalline particulates or degradation products of extracellular matrix. Since some DAMPs confer tissue-specific

Myeloma bone disease

open access: yesHematology, 2005
Bone destruction is a hallmark of multiple myeloma, and recent studies demonstrated a strong interdependence between tumor progression and bone resorption. Increased bone resorption as a major characteristic of multiple myeloma is caused by osteoclast activation and osteoblast inhibition (uncoupling).
