Immunoglobulin Light-Chain Isotype Switch (IS) during Lenalidomide Therapy in Multiple Myeloma and its Association with Increased M Protein Production and Miliary TB
Multiple Myeloma (MM) is a malignant neoplasm arising from a single plasma cell clone. It mainly affects older people. It forms localised osteolytic lesions. It secretes a single monoclonal immunoglobulin of constant isotype with light-chain restriction (paraprotein). MM cells may express, an adhesi...
