It was reported that MAGE‐C1/CT7 and MAGE‐A3 played an important role in promoting the survival of myeloma cells and clonogenic precursors by reducing the rate of apoptosis.24 Additionally, MAGE‐C1/CT7 played a role in the regulation of the myeloma cell cycle. This evidence concerns the gene MAGEC1 and plasma cell myeloma.
