Overview
Pathologically, the lesion in Monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance is in fact very similar to that in multiple myeloma. What causes Monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance to transform into multiple myeloma is as yet unknown.
Pathophysiology
- Pathologically, the lesion in MGUS is in fact very similar to that in multiple myeloma.
- There is a predominance of clonal plasma cells in the bone marrow with an abnormal immunophenotype (CD38+ CD56+ CD19−) mixed in with cells of a normal phenotype (CD38+ CD56− CD19+).[1][2]
- In MGUS, more than 3% of the clonal plasma cells have the normal phenotype, whereas in multiple myeloma, less than 3% of the cells have the normal phenotype.[3] What causes MGUS to transform into multiple myeloma is as yet unknown.
- The transformation of normal plasma cells to MGUS to multiple myeloma involves several steps of gene mutations.[4]
- After the stimulation by the antigens due to toll-like cell receptors expression, overexpression of interleukin receptors for example IL-6 and loss of regulation of cyclin D gene.[5][6][7]
- Patients with MGUS may have a "gamma-spike" on serum electrophoresis, as shown below:
