Abstract
INTRODUCTION Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) is a cytokine with a key role in proinflammation and multiple diseases, including cancer. The gene encoding TNF-α is located within a highly polymorphic region on chromosome 6p21.3; two polymorphisms -308G/A (rs1800629) and -238G/A (rs361525) have been associated with occurrence of human diseases. There is a debate in recent meta-analyses that reached discrepant conclusions regarding the potential role of TNF-α polymorphisms in multiple myeloma (MM) risk. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to investigate the association between the aforementioned two polymorphisms with the risk and survival of MM. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eligible articles were identified through an extensive search in PubMed database (end of search: June 18, 2020). The pooled effect estimates were calculated following the random-effects models by Der Simonian and Laird. Separate analyses were conducted by ethnicity. Between-study heterogeneity was quantified, and the deviation of genotype frequencies in controls from the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium was evaluated. RESULTS Eighteen studies (2934 cases, 4291 controls) have been included in the quantitative synthesis examining risk and 5 studies for survival (557 cases). No association was found between -308G/A and -238G/A TNF-α polymorphisms and MM susceptibility in all genetic models for both Caucasian and East Asian populations. There was no association between -308G/A and -238G/A TNF-α polymorphisms and survival (overall or progression-free) of MM. CONCLUSION This systematic review and meta-analysis did not reveal a significant effect of -308G/A and -238G/A TNF-α polymorphisms upon risk or survival of MM.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a bone marrow neoplasia with increasing incidence compared to previous years. Although new therapeutic molecules have been introduced, it remains an incurable disease with severe repercussions to patients. For many patients, bone disease represents a severe problem often causing pain, pathological bone fractures, and spinal cord compression, which affects the quality of life. This article analyzes the main markers of bone destruction in MM as well as risk factors for severe bone damage. Bone complications have a negative impact on the quality of life of patients with MM, along with other associated complications (renal failure, hypogammaglobulinemia, osteolytic bone disease, hypercalcemia, anemia). The markers of bone destruction described in this article include: interleukin (IL)-6, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-Β ligand (RANKL), osteoprotegerin (OPG), amino- and carboxy-terminal cross-linking telopeptide of type I collagen (NTX, CTX), human bone sialoprotein (BSP) and dickkopf-1 secreted glycoprotein (DKK1). The future practical applicability of this literature review would be the large-scale determination of markers of bone destruction that correlate with the negative evolution to complications of bone disease or the implications that these markers have in regards to treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate the relationship between tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) polymorphisms and multiple myeloma (MM) risk. METHODS Eligible studies were retrieved from PubMed, the Cochrane Library, Embase, CNKI and the Wanfang database. Polymorphisms of TNFα-308 G/A, TNFα-857 C/T, and TNFα-238 G/A were analyzed based on the allele, recessive, dominant, and additive-dominant models. The meta-analysis was conducted using R 3.12 software. Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were used as evaluation indicators. Heterogeneity among studies was detected. Publication bias was evaluated. Sensitivity and power analyses were also conducted. RESULTS Significant associations existed between 'TT vs. CC' (OR = 2.3752, 95% CI = 1.1342-4.9740) and 'TT vs. CC + TC' (OR = 2.0802, 95% CI = 1.0250-4.2218) models of the TNFα-857 C/T gene and MM risk. There were no significant differences in other genetic models of TNFα-857 C/T or any genetic models of TNFα-308 G/A and TNFα-238 G/A. No significant publication bias existed among the studies. In addition, sensitivity analyses showed that meta-analysis results of all genetic models of the TNFα-238 G/A gene did not change after omitting one of these studies, but most models of TNFα-857 C/T and TNFα-308 G/A exhibited significant changes. CONCLUSION Our findings indicate that the 'TT vs. CC' and 'TT vs. CC + TC' of TNFα-857 C/T are correlated with MM risk. TNFα-857 C/T may be a risk factor for MM development. There is no association between TNFα-238/-308 polymorphisms and MM risk.

Abstract
The present study performed a retrospective observational study in order to investigate the relationship between the interleukin family gene polymorphisms and risk of multiple myeloma (MM), based on sixteen case-control studies that contained 2,597 patients with MM and 3,851 controls. The results demonstrated that the genotypes IL-6 and IL-1 GG increased the risk of MM by approximately 40.8 and 80.2% compared with the genotypes AA and CC [odds ratio (OR)=1.14, 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.88-1.47, and OR=1.16, 95% CI, 0.61-2.19; respectively]. The results also revealed a significant association between T:C polymorphism of the IL-6 and IL-10 and the risk of MM (TC/CC: OR=1.37, 95% CI, 0.88-2.16 and TT/CC: OR=1.26, 95% CI, 0.77-2.06, respectively). Additionally, no significant association was identified between the C:A polymorphisms of the IL-6 (rs8192284) and IL-10 (rs1800872) receptors and the overall risk of MM (P>0.05). G:C polymorphisms of the IL-1β1464G>C and IL-6572G>C significantly increased the risk of MM (P<0.05). However, it has been determined that there is a significant association between the C:T polymorphism of the IL-1α-889C>T and IL-1β-3737C>T and the risk of MM (P<0.001). Subgroup analysis revealed that the detection of G:A polymorphisms in the IL-6 promoter (OR=1.05, 95% CI, 0.78-1.44) is more accurate in MM samples of the Asian population (OR=1.24, 95% CI, 0.92-1.74). In addition, no significant association was identified between the IL gene polymorphisms in MM samples categorized by ethnicity and the IL family type (P=0.27). These single nucleotide polymorphism loci may be the appropriate gene markers for gene screening and a promising therapeutic strategy in the prognostics of patients with MM.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION A complex network of cytokines in the bone marrow microenvironment has been implicated as an important factor in the pathogenesis of multiple myeloma (MM). Different cytokines have been studied in MM, both in peripheral blood and/or bone marrow, but there are few data correlating cytokines in leukapheresis product with post-transplant response depth to treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS In a retrospective cross-sectional study, levels of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), transforming growth factor beta-1 (TGF-β1) and interferon gamma (IFN-γ) in peripheral hematopoietic stem cells/leukapheresis product (PHSC) of patients with MM eligible for transplantation were evaluated. Association of these cytokines with certain factors such as mobilized CD34 + cells/kg, staging, response to treatment and outcome were analyzed. RESULTS The median baseline IFN-γ level was 826.4 pg/mL. IFN-γ levels in the leukapheresis product were significantly lower in patients who achieved complete response (CR) three months post-transplant when compared to patients with very good partial response (VGPR) (674.75 ± 80.32 pg/mL versus 939.6 ± 106.8 pg/mL, p = 0.02), respectively. Patients who lost depth of response at the third-month post-transplant had a median level of IFN-γ 1133, being considered "high-expressors" of IFN-γ, while those reaching improved response were called "low-expressors" (median level IFN-γ 485 pg/mL). Overall and progression-free survival did not have a statistically significant correlation with TNF-α, TGF-β1 or IFN-γ, as well as TNF-α and TGF-β1 levels in post-transplant response assessment. CONCLUSION IFN-γ in PHSC seems to be an important biomarker of loss of response in MM, suggesting a role in early post-transplant therapeutic management.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A number of studies show that the pleiotropic cytokine interleukin-6 (IL-6) plays an important role in the pathogenesis of multiple myeloma (MM). However, whether MM risk is associated with IL-6 genetic variability remains uncertain. OBJECTIVE The aim of our study was to evaluate the association between two different IL-6 polymorphisms (located in the IL-6 promoter and receptor, respectively) and the risk of developing MM using a meta-analytic approach. MATERIALS AND METHODS A systematic search for studies on the association of IL-6/IL-6R single-nucleotide polymorphisms with susceptibility to MM was conducted in PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, CNKI (Chinese) and Wanfang (Chinese) Digital Dissertations Databases from inception through November 2014. A meta-analysis was performed and results were presented as odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS A total of eight case-control studies on the IL-6 promoter polymorphism and three studies on the IL-6 receptor (IL-6R) polymorphism were included. No significant association was found between the IL-6 promoter rs1800795 (G>C) polymorphism and MM susceptibility. A significantly increased risk of MM was observed with the IL-6R rs8192284 (A>C) polymorphism. In subgroup analyses, grouped by ethnicity, region, quality of studies, and Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium of control group, similar results were found. CONCLUSION Unlike the IL-6 promoter rs1800795 (G>C) polymorphism, the IL-6R rs8192284 (A>C) polymorphism may be associated with MM risk. However, large-scale studies are needed to validate our findings since they are based on a relatively small number of studies.

Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) is a highly pleiotropic cytokine involved in a spectrum of physiological processes that control inflammation, anti-tumor responses and homeostasis through two receptors, TNF-R1 and TNF-R2. In general, TNF-R1 mediates cytotoxicity, resistance to infection and stimulation of NF-κB. By contrast, TNF-R2 has been implicated in proliferation of T-cell line, thymocytes and human mononuclear cells. Hematological malignancies are the types of cancer that affect normal hematopoiesis, have a speedy development, high lethal rate and until now still have no effective treatment. Several studies have shown that inflammatory cytokines play an important role in the onset and progress of these diseases. In this review, we summarize the recent studies and evaluate the positive or negative role of TNF-α in some hematological malignancies or diseases with a malignant tendency.

Abstract
SUMMARY Our understanding of multiple myeloma biology over the last two decades has led to a marked improvement in progression-free and overall survival for the majority of patients. The introduction of novel agents, improvement in administration of high-dose therapy with autologous stem cell support, along with supportive care measures have enabled the myeloma researchers to once again debate the curability of this disease. The present article is a succinct review of the progress that has been made and the impediments to curability of this disease.

Abstract
Results of available literatures, which concerned the association between TNF-α promoter -238/-308 gene polymorphisms and multiple myeloma (MM), are of great controversy. A review was performed in studies reporting on the association between them. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence interval (CI) were used to evaluate the association. The pooled ORs indicated that there was no association between TNF-α -238/-308 polymorphisms and MM susceptibility in overall population. Sub-group analysis also confirmed that no evidence supported the relevance of TNF-α promoter -238/-308 gene polymorphisms with MM. Studies with large sample size and multi-ethnics may be needed to further explore the association between them.
