Role of NF-kappa B in the Rescue of Multiple Myeloma Cells From Glucocorticoid-Induced Apoptosis by Bcl-2

Rena Feinman, Jadd Koury, Michael Thames, Bart Barlogie, Joshua Epstein, and David S. Siegel

From Myeloma and Transplantation Research Center, Arkansas Cancer Research Center, University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, Little Rock, AR.

The molecular mechanisms by which multiple myeloma (MM) cells evade glucocorticoid-induced apoptosis have not been delineated. Using a human IgAkappa MM cell line (ARP-1), we found that dexamethasone (Dex)-induced apoptosis is associated with decreased NF-kappa B DNA binding and kappa B-dependent transcription. Both nuclear p50:p50 and p50:p65 NF-kappa B complexes are detected in ARP-1 cells by supershift electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA). Dex-mediated inhibition of NF-kappa B DNA binding precedes a notable increase in annexin V binding, thereby indicating that diminished NF-kappa B activity is an early event in Dex-induced apoptosis. Overexpression of bcl-2 in ARP-1 cells prevents Dex-mediated repression of NF-kappa B activity and apoptosis. Sustained NF-kappa B DNA binding is also observed in two previously characterized Dex-resistant MM cell lines (RPMI8226 and ARH-77) that express moderate levels of endogenous bcl-2 and Ikappa Balpha proteins. In addition, enforced bcl-2 expression in ARP-1 cells did not prevent the augmentation of Ikappa Balpha protein by Dex. We also noted a possible association between Dex-mediated downregulation of NF-kappa B in freshly obtained primary myeloma cells and the patients' responsiveness to glucocorticoid-based chemotherapy. Collectively, our data suggest that the protective effects of bcl-2 in MM cells act upstream in the NF-kappa B activation-signaling pathway and the potential use of NF-kappa B as a biomarker in progressive MM.
