Further, PD-MSC-CM significantly reduced tumor growth in the leukemia mouse model, and this effect was mediated by regulation of the NLRP3 inflammasome pathway.<h4>Conclusion</h4>Summarizing, the leukemic blasts and AML-MSC in the BM microenvironment interact differentially in cell-cell contact compared to only soluble factors. This evidence concerns the gene NLRP3 and acute myeloid leukemia.
