Comparison of Interleukin-1beta Expression by In Situ Hybridization in Monoclonal Gammopathy of Undetermined Significance and Multiple Myeloma

Martha Q. Lacy, Kathleen A. Donovan, Julie K. Heimbach, Gregory J. Ahmann, and John A. Lust

From the Division of Hematology and Internal Medicine, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN.

We investigated whether interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta ) is differentially expressed in plasma cells from monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) and multiple myeloma (MM) patients because IL-1beta appears to play a major role in the development of lytic bone lesions, the major clinical feature distinguishing MGUS from myeloma. In situ hybridization (ISH) for IL-1beta was performed using bone marrow aspirates from 51 MM, 7 smoldering MM, 21 MGUS, and 5 normal control samples. Using the ISH technique IL-1beta mRNA was detectable in the plasma cells from 49 of 51 patients with active myeloma and 7 of 7 patients with smoldering myeloma. In contrast, 5 of 21 patients with MGUS and 0 of 5 normal controls had detectable IL-1beta message. Bone lesions were present in 40 of the 51 MM patients analyzed, and all 40 patients had IL-1beta mRNA by ISH. These results show that greater than 95% of MM patients but less than 25% of MGUS patients are positive for IL-1beta production. In the future, continued follow-up of IL-1beta positive and negative MGUS patients should determine whether aberrant expression of plasma cell IL-1beta is predictive of those MGUS patients that will eventually progress to active myeloma.
