In a study investigating the effects of chemotherapy on Kurata M, et al. Induction of integrin beta 1 expression in bone marrow cells afterexpression of integrin β1, lung resistance protein (LRP) and chemotherapy correlates with the overexpression of lung resistance protein and

poor outcome in patients with multiple myeloma. American Journal of Hematologymultidrug resistance (MDR) genes in multiple myeloma,83: 755-757, No. 9, Sep 2008 - Japan 80112454217 patients were identified in whom overexpression of

integrin β1 was observed. This correlated withoverexpression of LRP and a poor survival outcome.

The nine women and eight men aged 44–85 years received avariety of antineoplastics [dosages not stated] in the followingregimens [see table]: melphalan and prednisolone (MP),ranimustine (MCNU), vincristine, melphalan, prednisolone(VMP), vincristine, adriamycin, dexamethasone (VAD),cyclophosphamide (CPM), etoposide (VP-16), melphalan (L-PAM), interferon (IFN) and/or ifosphamide, carboplatin,etoposide (ICE). Patients 3, 4 and 8 also underwent peripheralblood stem cell transplantation (PBSCT). Expression levels ofintegrin β1 by bone marrow cells were determined both pre-and post-chemotherapy. Levels of LRP and MDR1 were alsomeasured.

There was a positive, significant correlation betweenintegrin β1 expression and LRP expression [duration oftherapies to reaction onset not stated]. The patients withchemotherapy-induced overexpression of integrin β1subsequently had a significantly shorter survival time thanpatients without an overexpression of integrin β1.

Author comment: "These findings suggest that thechemotherapy-induced overexpression of integrin β1 in a partof [multiple myeloma] patients would cause the upregulation
