Overview
The causes of multiple myeloma include sporadic mutations, such as TP53 mutation, and inherited predisposition.
Causes
Common causes
The causes of multiple myeloma include:
- Mutations in the tumor suppressor TP53 (most common)
- Sporadic mutations and genetic predisposition
- Mutations in tumor suppressors or oncogenes
- Chromosomal aberrations such as translocations can trigger the onset of malignancy and allow for uncontrolled plasma cell proliferation.[1]
Less common causes
- Familial causes are less contributory to the development of multiple myeloma compared to sporadic causes.[1]
