ADAM-9 (MDC-9/meltrin-gamma), a member of the a disintegrin and metalloproteinase family, regulates myeloma-cell-induced interleukin-6 production in osteoblasts by direct interaction with the alpha(v)beta5 integrinAbdullah Karadag
Division of Clinical Sciences, University of Sheffield Medical School, Beech Hill Road, Sheffield, S10 2RX, United Kingdom
Blood 107:3271-8. 2006..01). These data demonstrate that ADAM-9, expressed by myeloma cells, stimulates IL-6 production in hOBs by binding the alpha(v)beta5 integrin.
