We report the cases of six men, 40 to 89 years of age, with testicular (6 cases) or epididymal (1 case) plasmacytoma. Patients presented with a mass in five cases. One tumor was found during evaluation of progressive myeloma. In the final case, the testicular lesion was identified when the patient
We have analyzed a murine plasmacytoma minus highly differentiated B lymphoma subtractive cDNA library and identified eight genes that are expressed in most plasmacytomas but at a much lower level, or not at all, in most B lymphomas. Four of the genes are markers of the terminal differentiation of B
The effect of the tumor promoter okadaic acid on cell cycle progression and on vimentin expression in MPC-11 mouse plasmacytoma cells was compared with that of the tumor promoter 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA). Cell cycle progression of asynchronously grown MPC-11 cells was inhibited by
Total serum alkaline phosphatase activity and its isoenzymes were studied in 126 patients sent to hospital with a neoplastic blood disease. They comprised 63 patients with a lymphoreticular neoplastic disease, 17 with immature stem-cell leukaemia, 11 with a plasmocytoma, 16 with lymphocytic
The properties of a DNA-repair endonuclease isolated from mouse plasmacytoma cells have been further studied. It acted on ultraviolet-light-irradiated supercoiled DNA, and the requirement for a supercoiled substrate was absolute at ultraviolet light doses below 1.5 kJ m-2. At higher doses relaxed
Studies on the mechanisms of inducible and constitutive activity of NF-kappaB transcription factors have been hampered by the lack of appropriate mutant cell lines. We have analyzed the defect in the murine S107 plasmacytoma cell line, which was previously found to lack both constitutive and
A protein kinase activity with high specificity for histone H1 was isolated from mouse plasmacytoma, Morris hepatoma and normal mouse liver and compared by ion exchange chromatography after DEAE-cellulose, hydroxylapatite and Sephadex G-200 chromatography. This cAMP-independent histone H1 kinase is
A 64-year-old man died of IgD plasmocytoma only two months after onset of first symptoms. The course of the disease was characterized by marked renal insufficiency, hypercalcaemia with cardiac arrhythmias and bone destruction, in addition to raised phosphate concentration and alkaline phosphatase
Alkaline phosphatase (ALPase), concentrated in the membranes of matrix vesicles, is believed to play a role in initial calcification. To further purify, characterize, and identify this enzyme in tissue, a monoclonal antibody was developed against the ALPase of isolated fetal calf matrix vesicles.
Alkaline phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.1) was assayed in a large number of cultured mouse tumor cell line using p-nitrophenylphosphate as the substrate. Of 19 lines of the B lymphoid lineage, including Abelson pre-B, B lymphoma, and plasma cell tumor lines, all but 1 had substantial activity averaging 407
We have developed a strategy by which the nature of phosphodiester bond breaks produced by various DNA-repair endonucleases and also other nucleases, can be characterized. A purified apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) specific endonuclease from a permanently established mouse plasmacytoma cell-line (MPC-11)
Activity and isoelectric focusing (IEF) pattern of lysosomal acid phosphatase (E.C.3.1.3.2.) were investigated in 55 cases of low-grade malignant B-cell lymphoma, classified as chronic B-lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL), centroblastic/centrocytic follicular lymphoma (CB/CC),
The interleukin-6 (IL-6) stimulates growth in cells such as multiple myeloma and B-cell plasmacytomas/hybridomas, while it inhibits growth in several myeloid leukemia cells. The IL-6 receptor has subunit called gp130. It was reported that Ser-782 of gp130 is phosphorylated by unidentified kinase(s)
