The plasma cells also may cause the bone to break down.

Beta-2-microglobulin is a protein found on the surface of plasma cells.

Age can affect the risk of developing plasma cell neoplasms.

The diagnosis rests primarily on the presence of plasma cells.

Multiple myeloma is a type of cancer involving the plasma cells.

The overproduction of plasma cells causes an increase in antibodies.

As a result, there is a characteristic normal distribution of plasma cells in the blood by molecular weight.

Just before the season began, Baylor was found to have multiple myeloma, cancer of the blood plasma cells.

Be aware that marrow plasma cell distribution may vary in different sites.

Treatment of plasma cell leukemia is by supportive care and systemic chemotherapy.

The abnormal plasma cells often form tumors in bones or soft tissues of the body.

The plasma cells can collect in the bone to make small tumors called plasmacytomas.

The antibodies are produced by plasma cells, derived from B-cells.

It is sometimes considered equivalent to plasma cell dyscrasia.

Normally, plasma cells are responsible for producing antibodies that help fight infections.

The abnormal plasma cells produce M protein that may be found during a routine blood or urine test.

Plasma cell neoplasms are found most often in people who are middle aged or older.

There are different types of treatment for patients with multiple myeloma and other plasma cell neoplasms.

The clusters of perivascular plasma cells still appears from the established lesion.

There are several types of plasma cell neoplasms.

Sometimes, determine the percentage of marrow plasma cells.

A bone marrow examination from an uninvolved site contains less than 10% plasma cells.

Detection of more than 10% of plasma cells on a bone marrow examination.

Some patients with primary amyloidosis respond to chemotherapy focused on the abnormal plasma cells.

The plasma cells also cause problems inside bones, where they multiply and crowd out normal blood cells.
