Abstract

Cyclin D1 is a positive-regulator of the cell cycle and is overexpressed in myeloma cells with t(11;14)(q13;q32). First, we analyzed whether there was a correlation between cyclin D1 overexpression and the presence of Ki67-positive myeloma cells in multiple myeloma (MM). Cyclin D1 overexpression was examined by competitive RT-PCR. Then we found these two markers were present independently in a given case. FISH analysis revealed that cyclin D1 over-expression was caused by t(11;14)(q13;q32) or extra copies of B-cell leukemia/lymphoma-1 (BCL-1/CCND1), and unknown mechanism without them. We compared the gene expression between myeloma cells with cyclin D1 overexpression and those without it using cDNA microarray analysis. Analysis of the expression profiles showed that the significantly up-regulated genes included cyclin D1, cell division cycle 37 (CDC37) and B-cell leukemia/lymphoma-2 (BCL-2), while the down-regulated genes included cyclin D2 and CD9 antigen (p24) in MM cases with cyclin D1 overexpression. However, hierarchical clustering analysis of the data showed that myeloma cells of MM cases with cyclin D1 overexpression could not be distinguished clearly from those without it. Real-time RT-PCR showed that the expression of CDC37 gene was significantly up-regulated in MM patients with cyclin D1 overexpression compared with those without it (p=0.0418). However, there was no significant difference in BCL-2 gene (p=0.5748). These results suggested that MM cases with cyclin D1 overexpression do not constitute a specific group, and cyclin D1 overexpression may not be caused only by abnormality of the BCL-1/CCND1 gene. The CDC37 may collaborate with cyclin D1 in progression of MM.
