Although multiple myeloma (MM) patients benefit from standard bortezomib (BTZ) chemotherapy, they develop drug resistance, resulting in relapse. We investigated whether histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) inhibitor A452 overcomes bortezomib resistance in MM. We show that HDAC6-selective inhibitor A452 significantly decreases the activation of BTZ-resistant markers, such as extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERK) and nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB), in acquired BTZ-resistant MM cells. Combination treatment of A452 and BTZ or carfilzomib (CFZ) synergistically reduces BTZ-resistant markers. Additionally, A452 synergizes with BTZ or CFZ to inhibit the activation of NF-κB and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), resulting in decreased expressions of low-molecular-mass polypeptide 2 (LMP2) and LMP7. Furthermore, combining A452 with BTZ or CFZ leads to synergistic cancer cell growth inhibition, viability decreases, and apoptosis induction in the BTZ-resistant MM cells. Overall, the synergistic effect of A452 with CFZ is more potent than that of A452 with BTZ in BTZ-resistant U266 cells. Thus, our findings reveal the HDAC6-selective inhibitor as a promising therapy for BTZ-chemoresistant MM.
尽管多发性骨髓瘤(MM)患者受益于标准硼替佐米(BTZ)化疗,但他们会产生耐药性,导致复发。我们研究了组蛋白去乙酰化酶 6(HDAC6)抑制剂 A452 是否可以克服 MM 中的硼替佐米耐药性。我们发现,HDAC6 选择性抑制剂 A452 可显著降低获得性 BTZ 耐药 MM 细胞中 BTZ 耐药标志物(如细胞外信号调节激酶(ERK)和核因子 kappa B(NF-κB))的激活。A452 与 BTZ 或卡非佐米(CFZ)联合治疗可协同降低 BTZ 耐药标志物。此外,A452 与 BTZ 或 CFZ 协同抑制 NF-κB 和信号转导和转录激活因子 3(STAT3)的激活,导致低分子质量多肽 2(LMP2)和 LMP7 的表达减少。此外,A452 与 BTZ 或 CFZ 联合使用可导致 BTZ 耐药 MM 细胞协同抑制癌细胞生长、降低细胞活力和诱导细胞凋亡。总体而言,A452 与 CFZ 的协同作用在 BTZ 耐药 U266 细胞中比 A452 与 BTZ 的协同作用更强。因此,我们的研究结果表明,HDAC6 选择性抑制剂是一种有前途的治疗硼替佐米耐药 MM 的方法。
