Chemical compound and disease context of Plasmacytoma

  • The growth of primary plasmacytomas in transplant that is dependent on the pristane-conditioned peritoneal environment was not inhibited by indomethacin treatment [3].
  • The many binding studies of monoclonal immunoglobulin (Ig) produced by plasmacytomas have found no universally common binding properties, but instead, groups of plasmacytomas with specific antigen-binding activities to haptens such as phosphorylcholine, dextrans, fructofuranans, or dinitrophenyl [11].
  • The role of indomethacin in inhibiting plasmacytoma development was not established; two possibilities are that it inhibits production of mutagenic and tissue destructive oxidants by inflammatory cells, and it inhibits prostaglandin synthesis and intracellular production of oxidant biproducts [3].
  • The present study deals with the identification of effector-cytotoxic cells that may be developed as a result of chemotherapy-induced tumor regression and their possible potentiation by active, specific immunization with melphalan- and glutaraldehyde-treated MOPC-315 plasmacytoma cells [12].
  • BALB/c mice with the plasmacytoma MOPC 104E were cured of palpable tumors (6-15x10(7) cells) with a single injection of cyclophosphamide (10 mg/kg) [13].

Gene context of Plasmacytoma

  • Since IL-6 functions as a potent growth factor for murine plasmacytomas, over-expression of abnormal IL-6-R may function as a positive selection element for the development of certain plasmacytomas [23].
  • Oncostatin M, leukemia inhibitory factor, and interleukin 6 induce the proliferation of human plasmacytoma cells via the common signal transducer, gp130 [24].
  • These results demonstrate that mast cell-derived Ang-1 promotes the growth of plasmacytomas by stimulating neovascularization and provide further evidence supporting a causal relationship between inflammation and tumor growth [25].
  • Rapamycin, a specific inhibitor of FRAP, did not inhibit growth of plasmacytoma cell lines [26].
  • However, the kappaB binding complex in the plasmacytomas that were examined lacked c-Rel and instead contained only a p50-related protein [27].
