Imprinting of Mesenchymal Stromal Cell Transcriptome Persists even after Treatment in Patients with Multiple Myeloma.

ABSTRACT: INTRODUCTION:Multiple myeloma (MM) is a B-cell neoplasm characterized by clonal expansion of malignant plasma cells (MM cells) in the bone-marrow (BM) compartment. BM mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) from newly diagnosed MM patients were shown to be involved in MM pathogenesis and chemoresistance. The patients displayed a distinct transcriptome and were functionally different from healthy donors' (HD) MSC. Our aim was to determine whether MM-MSC also contributed to relapse. METHODS:We obtained and characterized patients' MSC samples at diagnosis, two years after intensive treatment, without relapse and at relapse. RESULTS:Transcriptomic analysis revealed differences in gene expression between HD and MM-MSC, whatever the stage of the disease. An easier differentiation towards adipogenesis at the expense of osteoblatogeneis was observed, even in patients displaying a complete response to treatment. Although their transcriptome was similar, we found that MSC from relapsed patients had an increased immunosuppressive ability, compared to those from patients in remission. CONCLUSION:We demonstrated that imprinting of MSC transcriptome demonstrated at diagnosis of MM, persisted even after the apparent disappearance of MM cells induced by treatment, suggesting the maintenance of a local context favorable to relapse.

Project description:INTRODUCTION: Recent studies indicate that bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) derived from patients with multiple myeloma (MM) differ from those of healthy donors in their expression of extracellular matrix compounds and in cytokine production. It is not known whether these abnormalities are primary or are acquired by BMSCs on contact with MM cells. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Interleukin (IL)-6, IL-11, IL-10, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha production by CD166+ mesenchymal BMSCs and the CD38+/CD138+ RPMI8226 myeloma cell line cultivated in vitro in monocultures or co-cultivated under cell-to-cell contact or non-contact conditions in the presence of a tissue culture insert were measured. Intracellular cytokines were measured by flow cytometry analysis as the percentage of cytokine-producing cells or by mean fluorescence intensity as the level of cytokine expression in cells. Additionally, ELISA was used to measure IL-6, soluble IL-6 receptor (sIL-6R), IL-11, IL-10, TNF-alpha, B-cell-activating factor of the TNF family (BAFF), hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), and osteopontin (OPN) production in the supernatants of the cultures and co-cultures. RESULTS: A higher ability of the BMSCs of MM patients than in controls was detected to produce IL-6, IL-10, TNF-alpha, OPN, and especially HGF and BAFF in response to the RPMI8226 cells. Moreover, the BMSCs of the MM patients significantly enhanced the production of sIL-6R by the RPMI8226 cells. DISCUSSION: Cytokines over-expressed by BMSCs of MM patients can function as growth factors for myeloma cells (IL-6, IL-10, HGF), migration stimulatory factors for tumor plasma cells (TNF-alpha, HGF), adhesion stimulatory factors (HGF, BAFF and OPN), stimulators of osteoclastogenesis (IL-6, TNF-alpha), and angiogenic factors (TNF-alpha). The results of this experiment strongly suggest that the BMSCs from MM patients differed in spontaneous and myeloma cell-induced production of cytokines, especially of HGF and BAFF, and these abnormalities were both primary and acquired by the BMSCs on contact with the MM cells. This in turn suggests the presence of an undefined, autocrine stimulation pathway resulting in a prolonged production of cytokines even in long-term cultures in vitro and in vivo. These abnormalities might provide optimal conditions for the proliferation and differentiation of residual tumor cells or their precursors in the affected bone marrow.
