Host-Derived Matrix Metalloproteinase-13 Activity Promotes Multiple Myeloma-Induced Osteolysis and Reduces Overall Survival.

ABSTRACT: Multiple myeloma promotes systemic skeletal bone disease that greatly contributes to patient morbidity. Resorption of type I collagen-rich bone matrix by activated osteoclasts results in the release of sequestered growth factors that can drive progression of the disease. Matrix metalloproteinase-13 (MMP13) is a collagenase expressed predominantly in the skeleton by mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) and MSC-derived osteoblasts. Histochemical analysis of human multiple myeloma specimens also demonstrated that MMP13 largely localizes to the stromal compartment compared with CD138⁺ myeloma cells. In this study, we further identified that multiple myeloma induces MMP13 expression in bone stromal cells. Because of its ability to degrade type I collagen, we examined whether bone stromal-derived MMP13 contributed to myeloma progression. Multiple myeloma cells were inoculated into wild-type or MMP13-null mice. In independent in vivo studies, MMP13-null mice demonstrated significantly higher overall survival rates and lower levels of bone destruction compared with wild-type controls. Unexpectedly, no differences in type I collagen processing between the groups were observed. Ex vivo stromal coculture assays showed reduced formation and activity in MMP13-null osteoclasts. Analysis of soluble factors from wild-type and MMP13-null MSCs revealed decreased bioavailability of various osteoclastogenic factors including CXCL7. CXCL7 was identified as a novel MMP13 substrate and regulator of osteoclastogenesis. Underscoring the importance of host MMP13 catalytic activity in multiple myeloma progression, we demonstrate the in vivo efficacy of a novel and highly selective MMP13 inhibitor that provides a translational opportunity for the treatment of this incurable disease. SIGNIFICANCE: Genetic and pharmacologic approaches show that bone stromal-derived MMP13 catalytic activity is critical for osteoclastogenesis, bone destruction, and disease progression.

Project description:BackgroundFibrostenotic disease is a common complication in Crohn's disease (CD) patients hallmarked by transmural extracellular matrix (ECM) accumulation in the intestinal wall. The prevention and medical therapy of fibrostenotic CD is an unmet high clinical need. Although targeting IL36R signaling is a promising therapy option, downstream mediators of IL36 during inflammation and fibrosis have been incompletely understood. Candidate molecules include matrix metalloproteinases which mediate ECM turnover and are thereby potential targets for anti-fibrotic treatment. Here, we have focused on understanding the role of MMP13 during intestinal fibrosis.MethodsWe performed bulk RNA sequencing of paired colon biopsies taken from non-stenotic and stenotic areas of patients with CD. Corresponding tissue samples from healthy controls and CD patients with stenosis were used for immunofluorescent (IF) staining. MMP13 gene expression was analyzed in cDNA of intestinal biopsies from healthy controls and in subpopulations of patients with CD in the IBDome cohort. In addition, gene regulation on RNA and protein level was studied in colon tissue and primary intestinal fibroblasts from mice upon IL36R activation or blockade. Finally, in vivo studies were performed with MMP13 deficient mice and littermate controls in an experimental model of intestinal fibrosis. Ex vivo tissue analysis included Masson's Trichrome and Sirius Red staining as well as evaluation of immune cells, fibroblasts and collagen VI by IF analysis.ResultsBulk RNA sequencing revealed high upregulation of MMP13 in colon biopsies from stenotic areas, as compared to non-stenotic regions of patients with CD. IF analysis confirmed higher levels of MMP13 in stenotic tissue sections of CD patients and demonstrated αSMA+ and Pdpn+ fibroblasts as a major source. Mechanistic experiments demonstrated that MMP13 expression was regulated by IL36R signaling. Finally, MMP13 deficient mice, as compared to littermate controls, developed less fibrosis in the chronic DSS model and showed reduced numbers of αSMA+ fibroblasts. These findings are consistent with a model suggesting a molecular axis involving IL36R activation in gut resident fibroblasts and MMP13 expression during the pathogenesis of intestinal fibrosis.ConclusionTargeting IL36R-inducible MMP13 could evolve as a promising approach to interfere with the development and progression of intestinal fibrosis.
