Patient MM cells and bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) were obtained from BM samples after informed consent was obtained. All participants provided their written informed consent to participate in this study. This study was performed in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki and was approved by the Institutional Review Board of the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. Mononuclear cells were separated using Ficoll-Hypaque density sedimentation, and plasma cells were purified (>95% CD138+) by positive selection with anti-CD138 magnetic-activated cell separation microbeads (Miltenyi Biotec, San Diego, CA, USA). Tumor cells were also purified from the BM of MM patients using the RosetteSep negative selection system (StemCell Technologies, Vancouver, BC, Canada). BMSCs were generated by culturing BM mononuclear cells for 4 to 6 weeks in DMEM supplemented with 15% FBS, 100 U/mL penicillin, and 100 μg/mL streptomycin.

PBMCs were obtained from blood samples from healthy volunteers by using Histopaque-1077 (Sigma-Aldrich) gradient fractionation. Bone marrow specimens were obtained from patients with MM after obtaining Sapporo Medical University School of Medicine Review Board approval and informed consent, and were obtained in compliance with the Declaration of Helsinki. Primary CD138+ plasma cells were purified by positive selection with anti-CD138 magnetic-activated cell separation microbeads (Miltenyi Biotec, Auburn, CA) as described [41 (link)]. According to a previous report, primary BMSCs were established from CD138 bone marrow mononuclear cells [35 (link)].

Bone marrow or peripheral blood samples were obtained from MM patients or healthy volunteers with informed consent and approval of the Institutional Review Board of the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. After separating mononuclear cells from patients’ bone marrow by Ficoll-Paque PLUS (GE Healthcare, Little Chalfont, UK), MM cells were purified by CD138-positive selection using anti-CD138 magnetic activated cell separation microbeads (Miltenyi Biotec, Bergisch Gladbach, Germany). Long-term MM patient BMSCs were established and maintained by culturing CD138-negative bone marrow mononuclear cells in DMEM containing 100U/m1 penicillin and 100μg/ml streptomycin, supplemented with 15% (v/v) fetal bovine serum (FBS). PBMNCs were isolated from normal donors’ peripheral blood using Ficoll-Paque centrifugation.

According to the Declaration of Helsinki, primary patient MM cells were obtained from bone marrow aspirates of MM patients with written informed consent. Mononuclear cells were separated using Ficoll-Paque PLUS (GE Healthcare Bio-Sciences, Pittsburgh, PA, USA). Primary MM cells were further purified by CD138+ selection using anti-CD138 magnetic-activated cell separation microbeads (Miltenyi Biotec, San Diego, CA, USA). CD138 mononuclear cells were used to establish long-term BMSCs. All experiments with patient samples were performed according to a protocol approved by the Institutional Review Board of the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.

Blood samples collected from healthy volunteers were processed by Ficoll–Paque (GE Healthcare, Boston, MA, United States) gradient to obtain peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). MM cells from individuals affected by MM were obtained from bone marrow samples after informed consent was obtained in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki and approval by the Institutional Review Board of the Dana–Farber Cancer Institute. Mononuclear cells were separated using Ficoll–Paque density sedimentation, and plasma cells were purified (>95% CD138+) by positive selection with anti–CD138 magnetic activated cell separation micro beads (Miltenyi Biotec, Cambridge, MA, United States).

Bone Marrow Samples from Multiple Myeloma Patients

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Bone marrow (BM) specimens were collected from 36 MM patients (18 males and 18 females; age range, 45–74 years) and 21 healthy donors (HDs) (10 males and 11 females; age range, 23–52 years) from the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from September 2018 to November 2019. The patients’ details are listed in Table 1. Patients’ clinical information is provided as supplementary materials (see supplementary Table S1). Informed written consent was obtained from each MM patient and healthy donor, and the study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of Chongqing Medical University. The use of human samples complies with the standards stipulated in the Declaration of Helsinki. The Ethics Committee Approval is provided as Supporting Information. The study excluded patients undergoing radiotherapy, chemotherapy, immunoregulatory drugs, proteasome inhibitors, and autologous stem cell transplantation. Plasma cells from bone marrow were purified with anti‐CD138 magnetic‐activated cell separation microbeads (Miltenyi, Germany) according to the manufacturer's instructions, and the plasma cell purity was over 95%. The total RNA of the samples was extracted, reverse‐transcribed into cDNA, and stored at −80 °C until use.

Bone marrow or peripheral blood samples were obtained from MM patients or healthy donors with written informed consent after approval of the Institutional Review Board of the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute or Kumamoto University in accordance with Declaration of Helsinki. Mononuclear cells were isolated from samples by Ficoll-Paque PLUS (GE Healthcare). MM cells were enriched by anti-CD138 magnetic activated cell separation microbeads (Miltenyi Biotec). Normal B cells from healthy volunteers’ peripheral blood were enriched by negative selection methods using EasySep Human B Cell Isolation Kit (STEMCELL Technologies). For B cell proliferation, isolated B cells were stimulated by 10 μg/ml of human CD40 antibody (R&D systems) in the presence of 100U/ml of recombinant human IL-4 (R&D systems).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
