Paired scRNAseq of the and non-hematopoietic and the immune microenvironment of aspirates from newly diagnosed Multiple Myeloma patients versus non-cancer controls
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: By generating a paired single cell RNA-sequencing database of the tumor niche from 10 newly diagnosed MM patients, we created a unique dataset allowing the in-depth analyses of stromal-immune interactions within the tumor microenvironment. Using this database, we identified the presence of inflammatory stromal fibroblasts in the bone marrow of Myeloma patients.The stromal inflammation was associated with NF-κB signaling, and sources of IL-1β or TNFα were specific immune subsets previously shown to be altered in MM, suggesting the presence of an immune cell-mediated feed-forward loop of bone marrow inflammation in MM. By tracking inflammatory signatures over time in individual patients undergoing first-line treatment using bulk RNA sequencing, we show that bone marrow inflammation is not reverted by successful anti-tumor therapy (see related accession number), suggesting a role for stromal fibroblasts and bone marrow inflammation in disease persistence or relapse.
