Two human myeloma cell lines, KMS-12-PE and KMS-12-BM, were established from a 64-year-old woman with a non-producing type of multiple myeloma. The KMS-12-PE line originated from the pleural effusion and the KMS-12-BM from the bone marrow. These two lines showed the same chromosome marker, t(11:14)(q13:q32). However, their phenotypes of surface markers differed from each other. KMS-12-BM cells were positive to CD20, CD38 and PCA-1. showing the plasmacytoid (immature plasma cell) stage of B-cell differentiation, while KMS-12-PE cells were positive to CD38 and PCA-1, but not to CD20, indicating the terminal differentiated stage of B-cells. As seen in the pleural effusion of the patient. KMS-12-PE cells ectopically produced a salivary type of amylase, but KMS-12-BM cells did not. Interestingly, the chromosome abnormality of del(1)(p22----pter) near the region of 1p21, where the amylase gene was assigned, was noticed in as many as 76% of KMS-12-PE cells.

Since 1980 five human myeloma cell lines, KMM-1, KMS-5, KMS-11, KMS-12-PE and KMS-12-BM, have been established in Kawasaki Medical School. Histologically, all the cell lines resembled plasma cells and were EBNA negative. KMM-1, KMS-11, KMS-12-PE and KMS-12-BM reacted with PCA-1, while KMM-1, KMS-12-PE and KMS-12-BM with CD38. KMM-1 and KMS-11 secreted immunoglobulins into culture medium. Karyologically, all the cell lines were abnormal. Only KMS-5 was tumorigenic when transplanted subcutaneously into nude mice.

Five human myeloma cell lines, KMM-1, KMS-5, KMS-11, KMS-12-PE, and KMS-12-BM, have been established at Kawasaki Medical School since 1980. As the KMS-12-PE and KMS-12-BM lines were obtained from the same patient, these five cell lines have been derived from four patients with multiple myeloma. The five myeloma cell lines are stably growing at present in RPMI 1640 medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum. They can also grow in a defined culture medium without serum. That these cell lines were human myeloma cells was confirmed by the following findings. Ultrastructurally, all five cell lines showed features characteristic of plasma cells. KMM-1 and KMS-11 cells secreted lambda and kappa chains into the culture medium, respectively, but the other cell lines produced no immunoglobulins. KMM-1 expressed cytoplasmic lambda antigen, KMS-5 showed cytoplasmic delta, and KMS-11 expressed surface kappa, whereas KMS-12-PE and KMS-12-BM cells showed no surface or cytoplasmic immunoglobulins. Regarding reaction with a monoclonal plasma cell antibody (PCA-1), four of the five lines were positive, the exception being KMS-5. Another monoclonal antibody (CD38), which also recognizes plasma cells, responded to KMM-1, KMS-12-PE, and KSM-12-BM. KMS-5 cells expressed acute lymphoblastic leukemia antigens (CALLA). These data suggest that such lines as KMM-1, KMS-11, KMS-12-PE, and KMS-12-BM represent later stages of B-cell differentiation, and that KMS-5 represents a relatively early stage of B-cell differentiation. All the cell lines lacked Epstein-Barr virus nuclear antigen, showed abnormal karyotypes of human origin, and differed from each other in the isozyme patterns examined. Only KMS-5 was tumorigenic when transplanted subcutaneously into nude mice.
