Popis: | We have earlier described the presence of phenotypically unusual monoclonal B cells within the peripheral blood of multiple myeloma (MM) patients. To determine the biological properties of these B cells as compared to B cells from normal donors, we investigated the potential of CD19+ MM blood B cells to adhere to endothelial cell and bone marrow (BM)-fibroblast monolayers. We find that 30-60% of freshly isolated CD19+ MM blood B cells adhere to endothelial cell monolayers, and 50-80% adhere to BM fibroblast monolayers. The adhesion of MM blood B cells to either monolayer was not increased by in vitro activation, suggesting that these cells were activated in vivo. In contrast, fewer than 10% of CD19+ B cells from peripheral blood of normal donors adhered. Function-blocking monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) were used to determine which adhesion receptors were involved in CD19+ MM blood B cell interaction with BM fibroblasts. mAbs against very late antigen 4, the beta7-integrin subunit, and CD44, but not mAbs against very late antigen 5 and beta1, inhibited adhesion 61, 50, and 30%, respectively. The lack of inhibition with mAbs against beta1 implicates alpha4beta7 but not alpha4beta1 in adhesion of CD19+ MM blood B cells. To determine the alpha4beta7 ligand that mediated MM blood B cell adhesion, mAbs against vascular cellular adhesion molecule 1 and fibronectin, as well as CS1 and RGD peptides, were used as inhibitors. These were unable to reduce the adhesion of CD19+ MM blood B cells to BM fibroblasts, suggesting that fibronectin and vascular cellular adhesion molecule 1 are not involved in adhesion. Also, adhesion of MM blood B cells to mucosal addressin cell adhesion molecule 1-transfected Chinese hamster ovary cells was not enhanced compared to control-transfected Chinese hamster ovary cells, suggesting that mucosal addressin cell adhesion molecule 1 was not promoting adhesion of these cells. These data implicate CD44:HA interactions, as well as alpha4beta7 and an as yet unidentified ligand in the adhesion of in vivo activated MM blood B cell adhesion to BM fibroblasts. The adhesion properties of MM CD19+ B cells distinguishes them from normal B cells. Although the malignant status of these cells is as yet undefined, their adhesion properties implicate MM blood B cells in migratory spread of the disease. |
