Multiple Myeloma Cell-Derived Interleukin-32gamma Increases the Immunosuppressive Function of Macrophages By Promoting Indoleamine 2,3-Dioxygenase (IDO) Expression
Conclusion: Our study showed that MM cell-derived IL-32 induced IDO production in Ms through PR3 and the downstream STAT3 and NF-B pathways, resulting in the suppression of the proliferation and effector function of CD4+ T cells. High IL-32 expression in MM may contribute to an immunosuppressive microenvironment by upregulating IDO production in Ms and promote MM progression.DisclosuresNo relevant conflicts of interest to declare.
