RESUMO

PURPOSE: Multiple myeloma (MM) is the second most common hematologic malignancy in the USA, with higher rates observed in older adults and African Americans (AA). Survivors experience fatigue, bone pain, reduced functioning, and obesity, highlighting the value of developing lifestyle interventions for this diverse group. This study explores lifestyle behaviors and supportive care needs to inform future programs tailored to the MM community. METHODS: MM survivors, ≥ 100 days post autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) with a BMI ≥ 20 kg/m2, were recruited from two university hospitals. Diet, physical activity, and quality of life (QOL) were measured using validated measures. Qualitative interviews gathered information on survivorship needs and interests related to supportive interventions. Quantitative data was analyzed using descriptive statistics; qualitative data were analyzed using deductive strategies. RESULTS: Seveny-two MM survivors participated (65% white, 35% black). Participants were 62.5 ± 15.8 years of age. Fifty percent were classified as obese and 65% were insufficiently active. Participants reported diets high in added sugars and saturated fats. QOL measures indicated clinically significant challenges in physical and sexual function. Most (87%) were interested in a lifestyle program. Predominant themes regarding survivors' desires for a lifestyle program included social support, guided exercise, meal preparation support, and disease management information. CONCLUSION: This study demonstrates the need for and interest in lifestyle change support among a racially diverse sample of MM survivors. Interventions that are group-based, target knowledge gaps, social connections, accountability, and provide structured framework with professional instruction will best address the needs of this survivor population.

RESUMO

Tubulin polyglutamylation is a predominant axonemal post-translational modification. However, if and how axoneme polyglutamylation is essential for primary cilia and contribute to ciliopathies are unknown. Here, we report that Joubert syndrome protein ARL13B controls axoneme polyglutamylation, which is marginally required for cilia stability but essential for cilia signaling. ARL13B interacts with RAB11 effector FIP5 to promote cilia import of glutamylase TTLL5 and TTLL6. Hypoglutamylation caused by a deficient ARL13B-RAB11-FIP5 trafficking pathway shows no effect on ciliogenesis, but promotes cilia disassembly and, importantly, impairs cilia signaling by disrupting the proper anchoring of sensory receptors and trafficking of signaling molecules. Remarkably, depletion of deglutamylase CCP5, the predominant cilia deglutamylase, effectively restores hypoglutamylation-induced cilia defects. Our study reveals a paradigm that tubulin polyglutamylation is a major contributor for cilia signaling and suggests a potential therapeutic strategy by targeting polyglutamylation machinery to promote ciliary targeting of signaling machineries and correct signaling defects in ciliopathies.
