Abstract
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematological cancer characterized by an uncontrolled proliferation of antibody-secreting plasma cells within the bone marrow. Currently, cell therapy such as chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) based on induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) has received attention for treating MM. However, the generation of iPSCs from MM patients appears to be very rarely reported. Here we generated an iPSC line from CD34+ bone marrow cells of a patient with MM using human placenta-derived cell conditioned medium (hPCCM), offering a relatively high efficiency in humanized conditions. This iPSC line might be a useful model for research on MM.
