Daratumumab-mediated disruption of mitochondrial transfer reduced the mitochondrial content in MM cells, prevented the boost in OXPHOS, significantly impaired MM cell growth and migration, and mitigated drug-resistance. In conclusion, we reveal a crucial metabolic interplay between monocytes and MM cells within the BM microenvironment that promotes tumor growth and induces therapy resistance, providing the rationale for treatment strategies that combine targeting tumor metabolism with existing anti-MM agents.
