    • Conversion of ATP to adenosine by CD39 and CD73 in multiple myeloma can be successfully targeted together with adenosine receptor A2A blockade 

      Yang, Rui; Elsaadi, Samah; Misund, Kristine; Abdollahi, Pegah; Vandsemb, Esten; Moen, Siv Helen; Kusnierczyk, Anna; Slupphaug, Geir; Standal, Therese; Waage, Anders; Slørdahl, Tobias Schmidt; Rø, Torstein Baade; Rustad, Even Holth; Sundan, Anders; Hay, Carl; Cooper, Zachary; Schuller, Alwin G.; Woessner, Richard; Borodowski, Alexandra; Menu, Eline; Børset, Magne; Sponaas, Anne-Marit (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Background PD1/PDL1-directed therapies have been unsuccessful for multiple myeloma (MM), an incurable cancer of plasma cells in the bone marrow (BM). Therefore, other immune checkpoints such as extracellular adenosine and ...

    • Highly expressed genes in multiple myeloma cells – what can they tell us about the disease? 

      Børset, Magne; Elsaadi, Samah; Vandsemb, Esten Nymoen; Hess, Eli Svorkdal; Steiro, Ida Johnsen; Cócera Fernández, Miguel; Sponaas, Anne-Marit; Abdollahi, Pegah (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Cancer cells can convert proto-oncoproteins into oncoproteins by increasing the expression of genes that are oncogenic when expressed at high levels. Such genes can promote oncogenesis without being mutated. To find ...

    • Phosphatase of Regenerating Liver-3 Regulates Cancer Cell Metabolism in Multiple Myeloma 

      Abdollahi, Pegah; Vandsemb, Esten; Elsaadi, Samah; Røst, Lisa Marie; Yang, Rui; Hjort, Magnus Aassved; Andreassen, Trygve; Misund, Kristine; Slørdahl, Tobias Schmidt; Rø, Torstein Baade; Sponaas, Anne-Marit; Moestue, Siver Andreas; Bruheim, Per; Børset, Magne (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Cancer cells often depend on microenvironment signals from molecules such as cytokines for proliferation and metabolic adaptations. PRL‐3, a cytokine‐induced oncogenic phosphatase, is highly expressed in multiple myeloma ...

    • Phosphatases of regenerating liver are key regulators of metabolism in cancer cells - role of Serine/Glycine metabolism 

      Abdollahi, Pegah; Vandsemb, Esten Nymoen; Børset, Magne (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Purpose of review Phosphatases of regenerating liver (PRL) are dual-specificity phosphatases and comprise three members, PRL-1, -2 and -3. Despite the importance of PRLs as oncoproteins, there is no consensus function ...

    • PRL-3 induces a positive signaling circuit between glycolysis and activation of STAT1/2 

      Vandsemb, Esten; Rye, Morten Beck; Steiro, Ida Johnsen; Elsaadi, Samah; Rø, Torstein Baade; Slørdahl, Tobias Schmidt; Sponaas, Anne-Marit; Børset, Magne; Abdollahi, Pegah (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Multiple myeloma (MM) is an incurable hematologic malignancy resulting from the clonal expansion of plasma cells. MM cells are interacting with components of the bone marrow microenvironment such as cytokines to survive ...

    • Protein tyrosine phosphatases in multiple myeloma 

      Abdollahi, Pegah; Köhn, Maja; Børset, Magne (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Many cell signaling pathways are activated or deactivated by protein tyrosine phosphorylation and dephosphorylation, catalyzed by protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) and protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs), respectively. Even ...

    • Targeting phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase in multiple myeloma 

      Elsaadi, Samah; Steiro, Ida Johnsen; Abdollahi, Pegah; Vandsemb, Esten; Yang, Rui; Slørdahl, Tobias Schmidt; Rø, Torstein Baade; Menu, Eline; Sponaas, Anne-Marit; Børset, Magne (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Background: Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematological malignancy characterized by the clonal expansion of plasma cells in the bone marrow. To date, this disease is still incurable and novel therapeutic approaches are required. ...
