Figures & data
Notes: (A) CS1 is highly expressed in CD138+ NPC (n=24), patients with MGUS (n=14), SMM (n=35), and MM BS (n=532) and MM REL (n=79), while expression in MMCL (n=45) is lower. CS1 is expressed in NK cells but at a lower level (NK, n=16), and is nearly negligible in other NT (15 tissue samples). (B) Strong CS1 expression in plasma cells from BM samples of two patients with MM by immunohistochemical staining with mAb IG9 (400×). Images shown in (B) are reproduced from Hsi et al. CS1, a potential new therapeutic antibody target for the treatment of multiple myeloma. Clin Cancer Res. 2008;14(9):2775–2784.Citation18 Copyright © 2008, American Association for Cancer Research.
