Figure 2 CRP Protects Established Myeloma Cell Lines and Primary Myeloma Cells from Induced Apoptosis In Vitro Shown are the percentages of apoptotic cells detected by Annexin-V–binding assay in 48 hr cultures in the presence of various concentrations of CRP. Apoptosis was induced by (A) serum starvation (medium containing no serum) in four myeloma cell lines; (B) IL-6 withdrawal in two IL-6-dependent myeloma cell lines; (C) dexamethasone (10 μM) or (D) melphalan (5 μM) treatment in four myeloma cell lines; and (E) melphalan (5 μM) in primary myeloma cells isolated from 4 MM patients (Pt1–Pt4) in cocultures with osteoclasts with or without addition of CRP (25 μg/ml). Cocultures with medium alone served as control. Details are described in the Experimental Procedures. Similar results were also obtained in cocultures of the primary myeloma cells with BMSCs. (F) Effects of CRP (25 μg/ml), boiled CRP (bCRP, 100°C for 2 hr; 25 μg/ml), LPS (1 ng/ml; Sigma), and serum amyloid P component (SAP; 25 μg/ml; Sigma) on dexamethasone (10 μM)-induced apoptosis in myeloma cells ARP-1 and MM.1S. Higher concentrations of LPS (up to 50 ng/ml) or SAP (up to 100 μg/ml) were also used and showed no protective effects on cell apoptosis (data not shown). The same results were also obtained by TUNEL assay. Results of three independent experiments are shown. Error bars, SEM.

Figure 3 Expression of Surface FcγRs and Their Binding to CRP on Myeloma Cells (A) Flow cytometry analysis showing the expression of FcγRI (CD64), FcγRII (CD32), and FcγRIII (CD16) on four myeloma cell lines. (B and C) Immunoprecipitation (IP) using antibodies against FcγRs (B) or CRP (C) in myeloma cells treated with or without CRP (25 μg/ml). Blotting antibodies (WB) used were against CRP or FcγRs.

Myeloma cells were incubated with CRP (25 μg/ml) and various concentrations of the F(ab′)2 fragments of the FcγR mAbs or IgG controls, followed by extensive washing and incubation with FITC-conjugated anti-CRP antibody. F(ab′)2 fragments of mouse IgG served as control. Isotype control represents cells staining with FITC-conjugated anti-CRP antibody. MFI, mean fluorescence intensity. Same results were obtained with other cell lines and primary myeloma cells. (E) Effects of CRP and FcγR blocking antibody F(ab′)2 fragments (20 μg/ml) on CRP (25 μg/ml)-mediated protection of dexamethasone (10 μM)-induced apoptosis in myeloma cells. Results of three independent experiments are shown. (F) Staining for CRP in bone marrow biopsies of five randomly selected MM patients (Pt1–Pt5) and one representative normal control (N) out of four examined by immunohistochemistry with mAb against CRP and conjugated secondary antibody. The insert on the panel for Pt1 shows a representative control staining with conjugated secondary antibody without the primary anti-CRP mAb. Scale bar, 20 μM. Error bars, SEM.

Figure 4 Expression and Role of Surface FcγRIIs on CRP-Mediated Protection of Myeloma Cell Apoptosis (A) Western blot analysis showing protein expression of FcγRIIA, FcγRIIB, and FcγRIIC by normal blood B cells from two healthy blood donors, 10 myeloma cell lines, and purified primary myeloma cells from 9 MM patients. Immunoprecipitation (IP) using (B) antibodies against FcγRIIA or FcγRIIC (upper panel) and antibody against CRP (lower panel) in ARP-1 cells, or (C) antibodies against FcγRIIB or FcγRIIC (upper panel) and antibody against CRP (lower panel) in MM1-144 cells treated with or without CRP (25 μg/ml). Blotting antibodies (WB) used were against CRP or FcγRIIs. Similar results were obtained from other myeloma cell lines and primary myeloma cells. Results of five independent experiments are shown. (D) Effects of FcγRIIA, FcγRIIA/C, or FcγRIIB blocking antibody F(ab′)2 fragments (20 μg/ml) on CRP (25 μg/ml)-mediated protection of dexamethasone (10 μM)-induced apoptosis in myeloma cell lines. As ARP-1 and MM.1S do not express FcγRIIB, no experiments were performed with FcγRIIB blocking antibody on these two cell lines. nd, not done. Knockdown of surface FcγRIIs by FcγRII-specific siRNA and its effect on CRP-mediated protection of dexamethasone-induced apoptosis in (E) MM.1S (expressing FcγRIIC), (F) ARP-1 (expressing FcγRIIA and FcγRIIC), or (G) MM1-144 (expressing FcγRIIB and FcγRIIC) cells. Controls included mock control, transfection of the cells with control siRNA (control), and detection of FcγRI protein expression. The upper panels represent percentages of specific apoptosis and lower panels represent protein expression detected by western blot analysis. In these experiments, cells were transfected with 400 nM siRNA and, 72 hr later, washed and incubated with or without dexamethasone (10 μM) and/or CRP (25 μg/ml) for 48 hr. Apoptosis was detected by Annexin-V-binding assay. Representative results of three independent experiments are shown. Error bars, SEM.

Figure 5 Elucidation of CRP-Induced Signaling Pathways in Myeloma Cells Western blot analysis showing (A) protein levels of phosphorylated (p) and nonphosphorylated Akt, ERK, IκBα, p38, JNK, and the nuclei (np65) or total (tp65) NF-κB p65 in CRP-treated myeloma cell lines MM.1S and ARP-1 cells for various times. M, minutes. (B) FcγRII antibody inhibited CRP-mediated activation of Akt, ERK, and NF-κB (pIκBα). ARP-1 cells were treated with CRP in the presence of F(ab′)2 fragments (20 μg/ml) of antibody against FcγRII (mAb 7.3) or control IgG (data not shown) for 180 min, and cell lysates were prepared for analysis. Effects of kinase inhibitors on (C) CRP-mediated protein expression of the kinases and (D) CRP-mediated protection of dexamethasone-induced apoptosis in myeloma cells (MM.1S). LY249002 (L; 50 μM) and wortmannin (W; 1 μM) are PI3K-specific inhibitors, PD98059 (P; 50 μM) is an inhibitor for MEK1/2, I (15 μM) is an inhibitor for IκBα phosphorylation, and N (18 μM) is an inhibitor for NF-κB translocation into nuclei. The concentrations of the inhibitors were chosen based on the manufacturer's recommendations and our preliminary tests. In these experiments, myeloma cells (ARP-1) were cultured with the inhibitors at the final concentrations indicated with or without dexamethasone and/or CRP for 180 min (all kinases were activated) and cell lysates were prepared for western blot analysis (C), or for 48 hr and harvested for apoptosis (Annexin V-binding) assay (D). Representative experiment of three performed are shown. Similar results are obtained with other myeloma cell lines and primary myeloma cells. Error bars, SEM.

Figure 7 In Vivo Protective Effects of CRP on Established Myeloma in SCID or SCID-hu Mouse Models Mice were xenografted subcutaneously with ARP-1 (A and B) or MM.1S (C and D), and tumor burdens were monitored as tumor volumes. When palpable tumors (≥ 10 mm in diameter) developed, mice were treated with intraperitoneal injections of either dexamethasone (1 mg per mouse daily for 6 consecutive days; [A] and [C]) or melphalan (0.5 mg per mouse daily for 6 consecutive days; [B] and [D]), or PBS. In some mice, CRP (200 μg per mouse) was injected subcutaneously (around tumors) prior to each chemotherapy treatment. Results from one representative experiment with 5 mice per group of three performed are shown. (E) In SCID-hu mice (3 per group), primary myeloma cells from patients (n = 3) were directly injected to implanted human bones, and tumor growth was monitored as levels of circulating human M-protein or its light chain. Myeloma-bearing SCID-hu mice received the same treatment as SCID mice. ∗p < 0.05; ∗∗p < 0.01. Error bars, SEM.

Figure 8 In Vivo Validation of Signaling and Apoptosis Mechanisms (A) Myeloma (ARP-1)-bearing mice were injected subcutaneously (around tumors) with CRP (200 μg per mouse) or PBS and sacrificed 24 hr later. Tumors were removed for immunohistochemical staining for CRP, phosphorylated Akt (pAkt) and pERK; (B) Myeloma (ARP-1)-bearing mice were injected intraperitoneally with dexamethasone (1 mg per mouse). Prior to each chemotherapy, CRP (200 μg per mouse) was injected subcutaneously (around tumors) to some mice (Dex + CRP). Mice were sacrificed 24 hr later after the second chemotherapy. Tumors were removed for immunohistochemical staining for apoptotic cells detected by in situ TUNEL assay, cleaved caspase-9 (cCasp-9), and caspase-3 (cCasp-3). Representative results of three experiments are shown. Scale bar, 20 μM. Cancer Cell 2007 12, 252-265DOI: (10.1016/j.ccr.2007.08.008) Copyright © 2007 Elsevier Inc. Terms and Conditions
