abstract：:Multiple myeloma cell lines express functional receptors for insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) and several cell types that make up the bone marrow microenvironment produce these cytokines. This suggests that IGFs may play a role in survival and/or expansion of the malignant clone within the marrow in patients with mu...
