Description To clarify the pathophysiology of multiple myeloma (MM) it is necessary to investigate the various developmental stages of B-cells. We provide a detailed phenotypic profile and enumeration of B-cell subpopulations in monoclonal gammopathy patients. A reduction of B-cells and differentiation shift to more numerous antigenstimulated forms was observed in MM. This might indicate a potential source of myeloma-initiating cells in one of these subpopulations.
