Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Jesús Delgado‐Calle's research focuses on the intricate signaling mechanisms within the bone marrow microenvironment, particularly in the context of multiple myeloma and bone metastasis. His work investigates the roles of osteocytes and Notch signaling in promoting tumor growth and bone destruction. He has received funding from the NIH/National Cancer Institute for two grants totaling over $1.3 million, focusing on the contribution of osteocytes to the musculoskeletal effects of multiple myeloma and the development of bone-targeted therapies for the disease.

Delgado‐Calle's publications explore the multifunctional role of Notch signaling in multiple myeloma, including how Notch3 signaling between myeloma cells and osteocytes drives tumor progression and bone damage. His research also examines how targeting Notch inhibitors can reduce tumor growth and bone destruction while mitigating gut toxicity. Furthermore, his work has identified senescent osteocytes that trigger bone destruction in breast cancer metastasis and investigated Notch3-CXCL12-driven signaling axes that promote chemoresistance in multiple myeloma.

His scholarship metrics include an h-index of 29, 191 total publications, and 3,464 total citations, designating him as a highly cited researcher. He actively collaborates with several researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including Hayley M. Sabol, Teresita Bellido, Aric Anloague, and Japneet Kaur, with whom he has co-authored numerous publications.
