Distinct Nuclear Organization of Telomeres and Centromeres in Monoclonal Gammopathy of Undetermined Significance and Multiple Myeloma
Both multiple myeloma (MM) and its precursor state of monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) are characterized by an infiltration of plasma cells into the bone marrow, but the mechanisms underlying the disease progression remain poorly understood.

| description | Both multiple myeloma (MM) and its precursor state of monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) are characterized by an infiltration of plasma cells into the bone marrow, but the mechanisms underlying the disease progression remain poorly understood. Previous research has indicated that 3D nuclear telomeric and centromeric organization may represent important structural indicators for numerous malignancies. Here we corroborate with previously noted differences in the 3D telomeric architecture and report that modifications in the nuclear distribution of centromeres may serve as a novel structural marker with potential to distinguish MM from MGUS. Our findings improve the current characterization of the two disease stages, providing two structural indicators that may become altered in the progression of MGUS to MM. |
