Popis: The serum levels of soluble CD23 (sCD23) were examined in patients with multiple myelomas and related diseases and were compared with levels of sCD23 in healthy, age- and sex-matched controls. The mean levels (95% confidence intervals) of sCD23 in the sera of 40 patients with multiple myelomas, nine patients with myeloma-related diseases (seven primary macroglobulinemia and two chronic lymphatic leukemia) and 30 matched controls were 2.7 (1.9-3.8), 9.9 (5.1-19.2) and 1.5 (1.3-1.7) ng/mL, respectively, showing a significant increase in sCD23 in the circulation of patients with myelomas (P
