Mitochondrial gene expression is enhanced in late stage multiple myeloma. (A) Fold-change in gene expression of TUFM and TFAM relative to GUSB in patients (MGUS n = 9; SMM n = 9; NDMM n = 18; RRMM n = 11). Data are presented as mean values ± SEM of technical triplicates. (B) High level of mitochondria-related genes identified by RNAseq analysis from the CoMMpass study (IA14); TUFM and COXII overexpression associate with shorter progression-free survival. (C,D) Heatmaps of canEvolve database analysis. (C) Gene-set enrichment analysis of the mitochondrial respiratory chain pathway; normal vs. NDMM, normal vs. RRMM. D. Gene-set enrichment analysis of the cytochrome c oxidase activity pathway; normal vs. NDMM, normal vs. RRMM. * p < 0.05.
