Abstract: Multiple myeloma (MM) is a currently incurable neoplasm of terminally differentiated B cells. The translocation and/or overexpression of c-MAF have been observed in human MM. Although c-MAF might function as an oncogene in human MM, there has been no report thus far describing the direct induction of MM by c-MAF overexpression in vivo. In this study, we have generated transgenic (TG) mice that express c-Maf specifically in the B-cell compartment. Aged c-Maf TG mice developed B-cell lymphomas with some clinical features that resembled those of MM, namely, plasma cell expansion and hyperglobulinemia. Quantitative RT-PCR analysis demonstrated that Ccnd2 and Itgb7, which are known target genes of c-Maf, were highly expressed in the lymphoma cells. This novel TG mouse model of the human MM t(14;16)(q32;q23) chromosomal translocation should serve to provide new insight into the role of c-MAF in tumorigenesis.
