Popis: International audience; Thymosin beta4 (Tbeta4) is a polypeptide involved in cellular proliferation, differentiation, and migration, over-expressed in several tumor entities. We evaluated its expression and function in 298 newly diagnosed multiple myeloma patients and the murine 5TMM model. Mean Tbeta4 expression was significantly lower in myeloma cells compared to normal plasma cells (P
