Association between BCL2, BCL2 E17, MCL1 and BAX Protein Expression, Bone Marrow Microenvironment Histological Features, Clinical Presentation, Therapeutic Outcome, and the Overall Survival in Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma

We evaluated the correlation between immunohistochemical BCL2, BCL2 E17, MCL1 (Bcl2- related protein family) and BAX (effector proapoptotic protein) expression and intensity of staining in plasma cells (PC) in MM patients (pts) who were eligible for autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) with DD4, CD8, and FOXP3 positive Tregs lymphocytes in bone marrow (BM) microenvironment, morphologic features of PC, clinical parameters, and outcomes. Immunohistochemical staining of BCL2, BCL2 E17, MCL1, BAX, CD4, CD8, FOXP3 and Ki67 was performed in BM biopsy of 36 newly diagnosed MM patients who were eligible for ASCT between 2012-2017 at University Hospital Merkur. Pearson's and Spearmans's coefficients of correlation, t-tests, one-way independent sample ANOVAs, mixed ANOVAs, moderation analyses, chi-square tests of independence and Cox's proportional hazards were used to analyze the data.
