ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
The question as to whether stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1) stimulated myeloma cell growth has been controversial. We explored the possibility that SDF-1 may function as an autocrine growth factor of myeloma cells.METHODS:
CD138+ primary bone marrow myeloma cells and myeloma cell lines (RPMI8226, U266, and ARH77) were used. Chemotaxis in response to SDF-1 of the cells was analyzed using Transwells(TM). Cell proliferation was measured by a colorimetric assay. SDF-1 mRNA expression was analyzed by RT-PCR (reverse-transcription-polymerase chain reaction). SDF-1 and interleukin-6 (IL-6) receptor expression as well as signaling molecule phosphorylation levels, were examined using Western blot analysis. Concentrations of SDF-1 in the cell culture supernatants were measured by ELISA assay.RESULTS:
SDF-1 alone had no discernible effect on the proliferation of CD138+ primary myeloma cells or myeloma cell lines. In contrast, SDF-1 significantly enhanced IL-6-induced proliferation of these cells. SDF-1 up-regulated the expression of IL-6 receptor and enhanced phosphorylation of AKT in an additive manner with IL-6. Co-culture of the myeloma cells with umbilical vein endothelial cells over-expressing the SDF-1 gene revealed that SDF-1 played an important role in not only the migration of the cells underneath the stromal cells but also the proliferation of the cells in contact with stromal cells. All the myeloma cell lines expressed SDF-1 mRNA, and SDF-1 was detected in the culture supernatants of the cells. The G protein-coupled receptor inhibitor, pertussis toxin, inhibited the proliferation of these cells in suspension cultures.CONCLUSION:
SDF-1, most likely in concert with IL-6, enhanced the proliferation of myeloma cells in a both paracrine and autocrine manner.
