CD86 regulates myeloma cell survival.

ABSTRACT: Although prognosis for patients with multiple myeloma has improved over the past decade, research toward discovery of new therapeutic avenues is important and could lead to a cure for this plasma cell malignancy. Here we show that blocking the CD28-CD86 pathway via silencing of either CD28 or CD86 leads to myeloma cell death. Inhibiting this pathway leads to downregulation of integrins and IRF4, a known myeloma survival factor. Our data also indicate that CD86, the canonical ligand in this pathway, has prosurvival activity that is dependent on its cytosolic domain. These findings indicate that targeting of this pathway is a promising therapeutic avenue for myeloma, because it leads to modulation of different processes important in cell viability.

CD86 regulates a pro-survival signal in myeloma cells

Project description:While multiple myeloma patient prognosis has improved over the past decade, research towards discovery of new therapeutic avenues is important, and could lead to a cure for this chronic plasma cell malignancy. Data analysis from a myeloma patient database shows that the CD28-CD86 signaling module may provide a survival advantage in myeloma cells that negatively impacts patient outcome. Here we show that blocking the CD28-CD86 pathway, by silencing or with CTLA-4-Ig, leads to myeloma cell death. Blockade of this pathway leads to downregulation of nutrient transporters, integrins, and IRF4, a known myeloma survival factor. Our data also indicate that CD86, the canonical "ligand" in this pathway, is mediating a pro-survival signal via the cytosolic domain that has not been previously described. These findings indicate that blockade of this pathway is a promising therapeutic avenue for myeloma, as it leads to modulation of different processes important in cell viability.

MMSET regulates transcription factors critical for survival of t(4;14) myeloma myeloma cells

Project description:Multiple myeloma (MM) is characterized by recurrent chromosomal translocations. The multiple myeloma SET domain (MMSET), identified by its fusion to the IgH locus in t(4;14) MM, is universally overexpressed and has been suggested to play an important role in tumorigenicity in t(4;14) MM. In order to identify downstream functional targets of MMSET, we knocked down MMSET expression with shRNAs in KMS11, a t(4;14) MM cell line, and identified differentially expressed genes by gene expression microarray analysis. KMS11 cells were treated with shRNAs for 48 h. Total RNA was extracted by using the Qiagen RNeasy Mini kit (Germany). Gene expression was performed using the GeneChip Human Genome U133A Array (Affymetrix) following the manufacturerM-bM-^@M-^Ys instructions. Data analysis was performed using GeneSpring software from Agilent Technologies.

Loss of FAM46C Promotes Cell Survival in Myeloma.

Project description:FAM46C is one of the most recurrently mutated genes in multiple myeloma; however its role in disease pathogenesis has not been determined. Here we demonstrate that wild-type (WT) FAM46C overexpression induces substantial cytotoxicity in multiple myeloma cells. In contrast, FAM46C mutations found in multiple myeloma patients abrogate this cytotoxicity, indicating a survival advantage conferred by the FAM46C mutant phenotype. WT FAM46C overexpression downregulated IRF4, CEBPB, and MYC and upregulated immunoglobulin (Ig) light chain and HSPA5/BIP Furthermore, pathway analysis suggests that enforced FAM46C expression activated the unfolded protein response pathway and induced mitochondrial dysfunction. CRISPR-mediated depletion of endogenous FAM46C enhanced multiple myeloma cell growth, decreased Ig light chain and HSPA5/BIP expression, activated ERK and antiapoptotic signaling, and conferred relative resistance to dexamethasone and lenalidomide treatments. Genes altered in FAM46C-depleted cells were enriched for signaling pathways regulating estrogen, glucocorticoid, B-cell receptor signaling, and ATM signaling. Together these results implicate FAM46C in myeloma cell growth and survival and identify FAM46C mutation as a contributor to myeloma pathogenesis and disease progression via perturbation in plasma cell differentiation and endoplasmic reticulum homeostasis.

Signaling Pathway Mediating Myeloma Cell Growth and Survival.

Project description:The multiple myeloma (MM) bone marrow (BM) microenvironment consists of different types of accessory cells. Both soluble factors (i.e., cytokines) secreted from these cells and adhesion of MM cells to these cells play crucial roles in activation of intracellular signaling pathways mediating MM cell growth, survival, migration, and drug resistance. Importantly, there is crosstalk between the signaling pathways, increasing the complexity of signal transduction networks in MM cells in the BM microenvironment, highlighting the requirement for combination treatment strategies to blocking multiple signaling pathways.

The KDM3A-KLF2-IRF4 axis maintains myeloma cell survival.

Project description:KDM3A is implicated in tumorigenesis; however, its biological role in multiple myeloma (MM) has not been elucidated. Here we identify KDM3A-KLF2-IRF4 axis dependence in MM. Knockdown of KDM3A is toxic to MM cells in vitro and in vivo. KDM3A maintains expression of KLF2 and IRF4 through H3K9 demethylation, and knockdown of KLF2 triggers apoptosis. Moreover, KLF2 directly activates IRF4 and IRF4 reciprocally upregulates KLF2, forming a positive autoregulatory circuit. The interaction of MM cells with bone marrow milieu mediates survival of MM cells. Importantly, silencing of KDM3A, KLF2 or IRF4 both decreases MM cell adhesion to bone marrow stromal cells and reduces MM cell homing to the bone marrow, in association with decreased ITGB7 expression in MAF-translocated MM cell lines. Our results indicate that the KDM3A-KLF2-IRF4 pathway plays an essential role in MM cell survival and homing to the bone marrow, and therefore represents a therapeutic target.

C/EBPbeta regulates transcription factors critical for proliferation and survival of multiple myeloma cells.

Project description:CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein beta (C/EBPbeta), also known as nuclear factor-interleukin-6 (NF-IL6), is a transcription factor that plays an important role in the regulation of growth and differentiation of myeloid and lymphoid cells. Mice deficient in C/EBPbeta show impaired generation of B lymphocytes. We show that C/EBPbeta regulates transcription factors critical for proliferation and survival in multiple myeloma. Multiple myeloma cell lines and primary multiple myeloma cells strongly expressed C/EBPbeta, whereas normal B cells and plasma cells had little or no detectable levels of C/EBPbeta. Silencing of C/EBPbeta led to down-regulation of transcription factors such as IRF4, XBP1, and BLIMP1 accompanied by a strong inhibition of proliferation. Further, silencing of C/EBPbeta led to a complete down-regulation of antiapoptotic B-cell lymphoma 2 (BCL2) expression. In chromatin immunoprecipitation assays, C/EBPbeta directly bound to the promoter region of IRF4, BLIMP1, and BCL2. Our data indicate that C/EBPbeta is involved in the regulatory network of transcription factors that are critical for plasma cell differentiation and survival. Targeting C/EBPbeta may provide a novel therapeutic strategy in the treatment of multiple myeloma.

Myocilin regulates cell proliferation and survival.

Project description:Myocilin, a causative gene for open angle glaucoma, encodes a secreted glycoprotein with poorly understood functions. To gain insight into its functions, we produced a stably transfected HEK293 cell line expressing myocilin under an inducible promoter and compared gene expression profiles between myocilin-expressing and vector control cell lines by a microarray analysis. A significant fraction of differentially expressed genes in myocilin-expressing cells was associated with cell growth and cell death, suggesting that myocilin may have a role in the regulation of cell growth and survival. Increased proliferation of myocilin-expressing cells was demonstrated by the WST-1 proliferation assay, direct cell counting, and immunostaining with antibodies against Ki-67, a cellular proliferation marker. Myocilin-containing conditioned medium also increased proliferation of unmodified HEK293 cells. Myocilin-expressing cells were more resistant to serum starvation-induced apoptosis than control cells. TUNEL-positive apoptotic cells were dramatically decreased, and two apoptotic marker proteins, cleaved caspase 7 and cleaved poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase, were significantly reduced in myocilin-expressing cells as compared with control cells under apoptotic conditions. In addition, myocilin-deficient mesenchymal stem cells exhibited reduced proliferation and enhanced susceptibility to serum starvation-induced apoptosis as compared with wild-type mesenchymal stem cells. Phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and its upstream kinases, c-Raf and MEK, was increased in myocilin-expressing cells compared with control cells. Elevated phosphorylation of ERK1/2 was also observed in the trabecular meshwork of transgenic mice expressing 6-fold higher levels of myocilin when compared with their wild-type littermates. These results suggest that myocilin promotes cell proliferation and resistance to apoptosis via the ERK1/2 MAPK signaling pathway.

EPS8-mediated regulation of multiple myeloma cell growth and survival.

Project description:Epidermal growth factor receptor pathway substrate 8 (EPS8), which acts as an oncoprotein in various carcinomas, is associated with tumor progression. However, its impact on multiple myeloma (MM) has not been determined. Here, we investigate the role of EPS8 in MM and consider the potential of EPS8 as an anti-MM target. We confirmed overexpression of EPS8 in MM cells compared with plasma cells derived from healthy volunteers. Knockdown of EPS8 significantly abrogated MM cell survival, migration and invasion. Moreover, depletion of EPS8 overcomes drug resistance. TNFα or bone marrow stromal cell culture supernatants induce EPS8, which is blocked by the IKKβ inhibitor MLN120B, suggesting that EPS8 is regulated by NF-κB signaling in MM cells. Mithramycin (MTM), a selective EPS8 inhibitor, suppressed MM cell proliferation and exerted potent anti-MM activity in xenograft tumor models. A synergistic effect of MTM and bortezomib (BTZ) was also observed in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, treatment of MM cells with MTM reduced the expression of EPS8 and related pathways. Additionally, the EPS8-knockdown phenotype can be rescued by shRNA-resistant EPS8. Taken together, we describe overexpression of EPS8 in MM by highlighting its role as a potential target and reveal therapeutic targeting of EPS8 by MTM as a novel therapy for MM.

Pro-survival signaling regulates lipophagy essential for multiple myeloma resistance to stress-induced death.

Project description:Pro-survival metabolic adaptations to stress in tumorigenesis remain less well defined. We find that multiple myeloma (MM) is unexpectedly dependent on beta-oxidation of long-chain fatty acids (FAs) for survival under both basal and stress conditions. However, under stress conditions, a second pro-survival signal is required to sustain FA oxidation (FAO). We previously found that CD28 is expressed on MM cells and transduces a significant pro-survival/chemotherapy resistance signal. We now find that CD28 signaling regulates autophagy/lipophagy that involves activation of the Ca2+→AMPK→ULK1 axis and regulates the translation of ATG5 through HuR, resulting in sustained lipophagy, increased FAO, and enhanced MM survival. Conversely, blocking autophagy/lipophagy sensitizes MM to chemotherapy in vivo. Our findings link a pro-survival signal to FA availability needed to sustain the FAO required for cancer cell survival under stress conditions and identify lipophagy as a therapeutic target to overcome treatment resistance in MM.
