title: Two human myeloma cell lines, amylase-producing KMS-12-PE and amylase-non-producing KMS-12-BM, were established from a patient, having the same chromosome marker, t(11;14)(q13;q32).
abstract: Two human myeloma cell lines, KMS-12-PE and KMS-12-BM, were established from a 64-year-old woman with a non-producing type of multiple myeloma. The KMS-12-PE line originated from the pleural effusion and the KMS-12-BM from the bone marrow. These two lines showed the same chromosome marker, t(11:14)(q13:q32). However, their phenotypes of surface markers differed from each other. KMS-12-BM cells were positive to CD20, CD38 and PCA-1. showing the plasmacytoid (immature plasma cell) stage of B-cell differentiation, while KMS-12-PE cells were positive to CD38 and PCA-1, but not to CD20, indicating the terminal differentiated stage of B-cells. As seen in the pleural effusion of the patient. KMS-12-PE cells ectopically produced a salivary type of amylase, but KMS-12-BM cells did not. Interestingly, the chromosome abnormality of del(1)(p22----pter) near the region of 1p21, where the amylase gene was assigned, was noticed in as many as 76% of KMS-12-PE cells.
