BMP-2: a culprit for anemia in myeloma
1Wilhelminenspital, Center for Oncology and Hematology.
Abstract:
Maes and colleagues(1) have found increased BMP-2 in the blood of multiple myeloma patients as an important stimulator of hepcidin in addition to other well-known mediators of hepcidin induction. These findings were obtained by transfection of human liver HuH7 cells with reporter constructs for the hepcidin promoter carrying either mutations in BMP-response elements or in STAT3-binding sites.

Disorders of Erythrocytes
Erythrocyte disorders can be broadly categorized into two main types: anemic and polycythemic conditions.
A low oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood due to the loss, lower production, or destruction of erythrocytes is termed anemia. Hemorrhagic anemia, for example, occurs when bleeding from an external wound or internal ulcer reduces erythrocyte counts.
