Description | Karyotypic abnormalities seen in MM cells correlate with the disease stage and drug responses. Here, we investigate the nuclear arrangement of the 1q21 region; amplification of this region is an important diagnostic and prognostic marker of MM. We examined the lymphoblastoid cell line CD138- ARH-77, multiple myeloma CD138+ MOLP-8 cells, and the CD138+ bone marrow fraction of patients diagnosed with MM. |
