Description The aim of this study was to evaluate the posibility of using these genes as molecular markers of the progression MGUS to MM and the early relapse of the MM. Due to rare extramedullary location of malignant plasma cells we tried to undercover if expression is detecable in PB simultaneously with expression in the BM. Total of 151 samples from BM were evaluated: 83 samples from advanced myeloma, 12 samples of patients with early stage of MM who did not required treatment (smoldering MM 4x, stage IA 8x), 41 samples of MGUS patiens and 15 samples of normal healthy donors served as control group. In 15 advanced myeloma patients we simultaneously assessed BM sample and PB sample. Total RNA was evaluated by RT-PCR and then by real-time PCR using FRET probes. For relative quantification we used G6PDH housekeeping gene as external standard. As positive control we used myeloma cell line U266.
