Abstract:
1. Serum Beta2-M and many cytokins level increase in MM patients than normal people with statistical. 2. Stage III Beta2-M levels were significantly higher than stage I and II. Serum Beta2-M levels correlate with many predictive factors such as serum creatinin, calci and uric acid. 3. Serum values of TNFapha, IL-6 and IL-1Beta increased along with levels of disease and correlated with paramenters of disease activity determined simultaneously in MM. On the basis of our results, Beta2-M and IL-6 appear to be extremly useful marker in myeloma patients.
