Expression of the bcl-2 gene in human multiple myeloma cell lines and normal plasma cells
15 Jan 1992
Abstract excerpt
The bcl-2 gene, encoding a mitochondrial membrane protein suggested to play an important role in cell survival, is translocated into the Ig loci in about 80% of human follicular lymphomas, which results in a high level of expression. This report shows that bcl-2 was expressed in eight of eight human multiple myeloma cell lines and in normal lymph node and bone marrow plasma cells. In the majority of the myeloma...
