    Description: Myeloma-related bone disease leads to progressive destruction of the skeleton and is the most severe cause of morbidity in multiple myeloma (MM). Although the mechanisms ofosteolytic activity in MM are not fully understood, current evidence points to osteoclast (OC) hyperactivity coupled with bone resorption. Osteoclasts are generated in the bone marrow (BM) by myeloid progenitors through increased levels of NF-κB ligand and M-CSF whose intracellular pathways propagate signals that could activate key transcription factors, resulting in the degradation of the bone matrix. In this context, recent reports onthe expression of Netrin-1 in osteoclasts prompted us to further investigate whether secreted Netrin-1 from MM cells contributes to bone-related osteolytic activities in MM patients. Netrin-1 is a member of the axonal guidance protein family that regulates cell migration and promotes inflammation which subsequently increases macrophage activity in the BM. In contrast to other organs, the BM has long been accepted to be a naturally hypoxic organ. Given that Netrin-1 also is an indicator of oxidative stress, we investigated its potential role in promoting osteoclast activity in MM under hypoxic conditions. Sample description and assays: We used (a) U266 MM cells, (b) cells isolated from BM aspirates (mesenchymal stem cells-MSCs) of MM patients and (c) mouse MM cells (5TGM1). Patient samples were obtained with written informed consent and approved by the Institutional Review Board of NYU School of Medicine,andsamples from healthy volunteers were used for relevant controls. Cells were exposed to hypoxic conditions (1% oxygen) for 7 days vs. normal oxygen. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) activity assay was measured in cell culture samples in triplicate (100 μl each). To measure Netrin-1 activity, ELISA was performed using a specific antibody. Osteoclast activity and Netrin-1 expression was assessed in cells exposed to hypoxic conditions in the presence of M-CSF and RANKL for 14 days. After confirming the presence of differentiated osteoclast (〉80%) confirmed by TRAPC assays, cells were further treated with the RANKL inhibitor denosumab (30 ng). Results: Human MM cells refractory to velcade treatment grown under hypoxic conditions for 7 days exhibited a significant increase in proliferation (〉 3 fold) compared with the control (0.2/0.56±0.1-OD) and an increase in migratory colonies in a hyaluronic acid (HA)-based 3D matrix (17/87 〉 5 fold increase) in contrast to that observed in a 2D culture showing (5/15) 〉2 fold. We observed an elevated level of RANKL (350±9 pgs 〉5 fold compared with that in the control (47±2 pgs). In addition, increased secreted Netrin-1was observed in the cell culture medium. Netrin-1 activity measured by ELISA was enhanced by treatment with TNFα and inhibited by 〉 5 fold upon treatment with denosumab. Preliminary findings on Crisper-cas-9-directed knockdown of Netrin-1 in M-CSF-RANKL treated pre-osteoclasts will potentially confirm its specific role in promoting osteolytic activities particularly under hypoxia-mediated oxidative stress conditions. The above preliminary findings on decreased pre-osteoclasts associated with a decline in ROS activity and Netrin-1 levels after treatment with denosumab is significant. Conclusion: Our data provide preliminary evidence on hypoxia-dependent release of Netrin-1 in the promotion of osteoclast activity that is potentially modulated by a RANKL inhibitor in MM refractory patients who are at high risk for bone-related MM.

    Description: Abstract 5012 Development and progression of multiple myeloma is dependent on the bone marrow (BM) microenvironment. Bone marrow stromal cells (BMSC) secrete Wnt ligands that activate the Wnt signaling pathway. The canonical Wnt pathway, which is mediated through the key transcriptional effector β-catenin (β-cat), is commonly deregulated in many cancers. Cells with β-cat-regulated transcription (CRT) are protected against apoptosis; conversely inhibition of CRT may inhibit cell proliferation. In this study we tested the efficacy of recently described inhibitors of CRT (iCRTs) for their selective antagonistic effect on Wnt-β-cat in MM cells. Although, earlier studies have documented Wnt signaling in human MM cells, in order to test the chemosensitivity of iCRTs in myeloma cells, we first confirmed the expression of β-cat in human MM cell types. An immunofluorescence detection of β-cat in U266 cells showed nuclear localization in 〉 70% of the cells, a similar trend of nuclear β-cat was observed in MM1 and patient derived BMMC cells. This observation is consistent with the Western blot analysis of the total protein from three cell types. The above data on the expression of nuclear β-cat in MM cell lines and cells from patient sample (n=16) provides the rationale for using these cells to test the efficacy of iCRTs (Oxazole-iCRT-3 and Thiazole-iCRT-5), that are designed to target β-cat signaling. Wnt reporter plasmid STF16-transfected MM cells treated with iCRTs at the doses of 10, 25, and 50 μM showed a dose dependent decrease (2–3 fold) in the Wnt/β-cat reporter activity, with a significant decline at a maximum dose of 50 μM (p3 fold determined by qRT-PCR analysis. To determine whether the effect of iCRTs on the VEGF activity is specific to its ability to antagonize b-cat activity, we used culture medium collected from cells transiently transfected with siRNA for β-cat. siRNA mediated down regulation of β-cat showed a decrease in the VEGF levels, thereby confirming that the effect of iCRTs is indeed mediated by their inhibitory effect on b-cat. Although several aspect of our key findings are yet to be confirmed in preclinical in vivo models for MM, this part of the study provide evidence that indicate a VEGF-dependent increase in cell proliferation and migration of MM cells that can be antagonized by specific inhibitors of nuclear b-cat, thereby underscoring the importance of developing iCRTs as a novel class of Wnt-directed therapeutics in human MM.
