Abstract
This research aimed to find which treatment worked better for mice with a complete immune system: the herbal treatment or SAC treatment when treating multiple myeloma. Previous studies have shown that the HE treatment improved life expectancy in mice with a compromised immune system. It is expected that the HE treatment will enhance the life expectancy of the mice at a greater rate than the PBS or SAC treatments in immune-competent mice. Unfortunately, this research was unable to be finished and given results will be quantified using cBioportal analysis of the genes DIS3, CCND1, COL1A1, and FGFR3.
