Expression of BCMA, BAFF-R, and TACI mRNA was determined by RT-PCR in 17 HMCLs. TACI and BCMA expressions were also determined with Affymetrix microarrays. The probeset for BAFF-R was not available on the Affymetrix HG U133 A + B DNA microarrays. The expression of BAFF binding was determined by flow cytometry using biotinylated human BAFF-murine CD8 fusion protein and phycoerythrin-conjugated streptavidin.

+ indicates the presence of the receptor; –, the receptor's absence; P, present cell; and A, absent cell.
