| Abstract |
Several autocrine soluble factors, including macrophage inflammatory protein-1α (MIP-1α), tumor necrosis factor-α, and hepatocyte growth factor, promote cell survival and growth in multiple myeloma (MM) cells. We hypothesized that inhibition of the MIP-1α autocrine loop may enhance the cytotoxic effect of anticancer drugs in MM cell lines. In the present study, an MIP-1α neutralizing antibody suppressed cell proliferation and enhanced the cytotoxic effect of melphalan or bortezomib on MM cells. In addition, melphalan resistance cells (RPMI8226/L-PAM and HS-sultan/L-PAM cells) secreted MIP-1α and neutralizing antibody of MIP-1α partially overcame melphalan resistance. Moreover, combination treatment with MIP-1α neutralizing antibody and melphalan or bortezomib inhibited extracellular signal regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2), Akt, and mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) activation, Bcl-2, Bcl-xL, and Survivin expression, and upregulated the expression of Bim and cleaved Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP). Treatment of IM9 cells with MIP-1α siRNA suppressed the activation of ERK1/2, Akt, and mTOR, and enhanced the cytotoxic effect of melphalan and bortezomib. These results indicate that MIP-1α neutralizing antibodies or MIP-1α siRNA enhance the cytotoxic effect of melphalan and bortezomib by suppressing the chemokine receptor/ERK and chemokine receptor/Akt/mTOR pathways. The inhibition of MIP-1α may thus provide a new therapeutic approach to control tumor progression and bone destruction in patients with MM.
