    IntroductionMultiple myeloma (MM) is a heterogeneous disease where cancer-driver mutations and aberrant signaling may lead to disease progression and drug resistance. Drug responses vary greatly, and there is an unmet need for biomarkers that can guide precision cancer medicine in this disease.MethodsTo identify potential predictors of drug sensitivity, we applied integrated data from drug sensitivity screening, mutational analysis and functional signaling pathway profiling in 9 cell line models of MM. We studied the sensitivity to 33 targeted drugs and their association with the mutational status of cancer-driver genes and activity level of signaling proteins.ResultsWe found that sensitivity to mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 1 (MEK1) and phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K) inhibitors correlated with mutations in NRAS/KRAS, and PI3K family genes, respectively. Phosphorylation status of MEK1 and protein kinase B (AKT) correlated with sensitivity to MEK and PI3K inhibition, respectively. In addition, we found that enhanced phosphorylation of proteins, including Tank-binding kinase 1 (TBK1), as well as high expression of B cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2), correlated with low sensitivity to MEK inhibitors.DiscussionTaken together, this study shows that mutational status and signaling protein profiling might be used in further studies to predict drug sensitivities and identify resistance markers in MM.</p

    The concentration in a 10 ml PCR was 1xThermopol Reaction Buffer with 2 mM MgS04, 0.3 μM “reverse” primers, 0.15 μM “forward” primer, 0.1 μM, 6-Carboxyfluorescein-GC clamp primer, 600 μM dNTP, 100 μg Bovine Serum Albumine (Sigma-Aldrich, Oslo, Norway) and 0.75 U Taq DNA polymerase. Plates were sealed with two strips of electrical tape (Clas Ohlson, Oslo, Norway). The temperature cycling was repeated 35 times; 94 °C for 30 s, annealing temperature held for 30 s and extension at 72 °C for 60 s (Eppendorf Mastercycler ep gradient S (Eppendorf, Hamburg, Germany)). Table S1. primers used to amplify PCR product to be analysed by cycling temperature capillary electrophoresis. (DOCX 16 kb
