Cells were incubated with or without IL-15 (10 ng/mL) for 16 hours prior to treatment with CH11 mAb (50 ng/mL) for 24 hours. The percentages of apoptotic cells were determined using the annexin V/FITC/PI assay. Mean values of four independent experiments ± SEM are given. Induction of apoptosis by CH11 mAb treatment is significantly different in myeloma cells without or with IL-15 pretreatment as determined by the Fisher PLSD test (ARH-77:P = .038; IM-9: P = .035; LP-1: P = .018; MC-Car: P = .01; OPM-2: P = .007; RPMI 8226:P = .004).
