We have verified the hypothesis that multiple myeloma (MM) may be
disseminated by circulating clonogenic cells that selectively home to the
bone marrow (BM) to receive the signal(s) leading to proliferation,
terminal differentiation, and production of the osteoclast activating
factors. Long-term cultures of stromal cells have been developed from the
BM of nine patients with MM. These cells were mostly fibroblast- like
elements, interspersed with a proportion of scattered macrophages and rare
osteoclasts. BM stromal cells were CD54+, produced high levels of
interleukin-6 (IL-6) and measurable amounts of IL-1 beta, and were used as
feeder layers for autologous peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC).
After 3 weeks of cocultures, monoclonal B lymphocytes and plasma cells,
derived from PBMC, developed and the number of osteoclasts significantly
increased. Both populations grew tightly adherent to the stromal cell layer
and their expansion was matched by a sharp increase of IL-6 and by the
appearance of IL-3 in the culture supernatant. These data attribute to BM
stromal cells a critical role in supporting the growth of B lymphocytes,
plasma cells, and osteoclasts and the in vivo dissemination of MM.
