Description Objective
Membrane type-matrix metalloproteinases (MT-MMPs) are known as key regulators of cancer progression/metastasis. However, their roles in the growth and progression of multiple myeloma (MM) have not been yet elucidated. Methods and materials
The expression of 6 MT-MMPs in MM, B cell lines, and normal peripheral blood (PB) cells were measured by RT-PCR, qRT-PCR, flow cytometry, western blotting, and immunocytochemistry. B lymphocytes, CD197/CD138, and CD197/CD138+ cells, known as malignant plasma cells (MPC), were sorted from bone marrow (BM) aspirations of 10 MM patients, and MT2-MMP expression was examined in these cells using qRT-PCR, flow cytometry and immunohistochemistry, and western blotting. Moreover, the expression of MT2-MMP in BM biopsies from 13 normal individuals and 14 MM patients was analyzed by immunohistochemistry. MT2-MMP was also …
