Remarkably, rTRAIL treatment of tumour explants derived from three patients with MM also revealed increased levels of apoptosis (as measured by poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) cleavage) in explants with low BAP1 expression compared with those with high BAP1 expression (Figure 3B and C, Figure 3—figure supplement 2). Here, BAP1 is linked to neoplasm.
