Description | Centrosome amplification (CA) as a potential marker of mitotic disruptions in multiple myeloma (MM) was investigated in two populations of B-cell lineage: B-cells and plasma cells (PCs). There was no significant correlation between CA-positive MM cases (based on PC samples evaluation) and the occurrence of cytogenetic abnormalities in PCs, including del(13)(q14), del(17)(p13), gain(1)(q21) and hyperdiploidy. |
