The Hh ligand promotes expansion of MM stem cells without differentiation, whereas the Hh pathway blockade, while having little or no effect on malignant plasma cell growth, markedly inhibits clonal expansion accompanied by terminal differentiation of purified MM stem cells.
It was reported that, out of the three NPs sizes, the 17- and 28-nm Au nanorods caused equal rise in the temperature (15 °C), but the 28-nm sized still had the superior effect on malignant cancer cells.
