Myeloma Cells Down-Regulate Adiponectin in Bone Marrow Adipocytes Via TNF-Alpha.

ABSTRACT: Multiple myeloma is caused by abnormal plasma cells that accumulate in the bone marrow and interact with resident cells of the bone microenvironment to drive disease progression and development of an osteolytic bone disease. Bone marrow adipocytes (BMAds) are emerging as having important endocrine functions that can support myeloma cell growth and survival. However, how BMAds respond to infiltrating tumor cells remains poorly understood. Using the C57BL/KaLwRij murine model of myeloma, bone marrow adiposity was found to be increased in early stage myeloma with BMAds localizing along the tumor-bone interface at later stages of disease. Myeloma cells were found to uptake BMAd-derived lipids in vitro and in vivo, although lipid uptake was not associated with the ability of BMAds to promote myeloma cell growth and survival. However, BMAd-derived factors were found to increase myeloma cell migration, viability, and the evasion of apoptosis. BMAds are a major source of adiponectin, which is known to be myeloma-suppressive. Myeloma cells were found to downregulate adiponectin specifically in a model of BMAds but not in white adipocytes. The ability of myeloma cells to downregulate adiponectin was dependent at least in part on TNF-α. Collectively our data support the link between increased bone marrow adiposity and myeloma progression. By demonstrating how TNF-α downregulates BMAd-derived adiponectin, we reveal a new mechanism by which myeloma cells alter the bone microenvironment to support disease progression. © 2019 The Authors.

Project description:Multiple myeloma (MM) is a lethal B cell neoplasm characterized by clonal expansion of malignant plasma cells in the bone marrow and remains incurable due to disease relapse and drug resistance. Bone marrow adipocytes (BMAs) are emerging as playing active functions that can support myeloma cell growth and survival. The aim of this study is to investigate myeloma-mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) interaction and the impact of such interactions on the pathogenesis of MM using in vitro co-culture assay. Here we provide evidence that MM cell up-regulated MSCs to express PPAR-γ and pushes MSCs differentiation toward adipocytes at the expense of osteoblasts in co-culture manner. The increased BMAs can effectively enhance MM cell to proliferation, migration, and chemoresistance via cell-cell contact and/or cytokines release regulated by PPAR-γ signal pathway. This effect was partially reversed in medium containing PPAR-γ antagonist G3335 and indicated that G3335 distorts the maturation of MSC-derived adipocytes and cytokines release by adipocytes through inhibition of PPAR-γ, a key transcriptional factor for the activation of adipogenesis, or cell to cell contact, or both. In meantime, we observed higher expression of adipocyte differentiation associated genes DLK1, DGAT1, FABP4, and FASN both in MSCs and MSC derived adipocytes, but the osteoblast differentiation-associated gene ALP was down regulated in MSCs. These finding mean that direct consequence of MM/MSC interaction that play a role in MM pathogenesis. Consistent with those in vitro results, our primary clinical observation also showed that bone marrow samples from MM patients had significantly higher bone adiposity in comparison with controls and the number of adipocytes decreased in those who were response to anti-MM therapy. Our finding suggested that BMAs may have an important contribution to MM progression, particularly in drugs resistant of MM cells, and plays an important contribution in MM bone disease and treatment failure, but more clinical studies are needed to confirm its role.

Project description:BackgroundIn osteoporosis, bone loss is accompanied by increased marrow adiposity. Given their proximity in the bone marrow and their shared origin, a dialogue between adipocytes and osteoblasts could be a factor in the competition between human Mesenchymal Stem Cells (hMSC) differentiation routes, leading to adipocyte differentiation at the expense of osteoblast differentiation. The adipocyte/osteoblast balance is highly regulated at the level of gene transcription. In our work, we focused on PPARgamma, CEBPalpha and CEBPdelta, as these transcription factors are seen as master regulators of adipogenesis and expressed precociously, and on leptin and adiponectin, considered as adipocyte marker genes. In 2010, our group has demonstrated, thanks to a coculture model, that in the presence of hMSC-derived adipocytes (hMSC-Adi), hMSC-derived osteoblasts (hMSC-Ost) express lesser amounts of osteogenic markers but exhibit the expression of typical adipogenic genes. Nevertheless, the mechanisms underlying this modulation of gene expression are not clarified. Recently, adipocytes were described as releasing extracellular vesicles (EVs), containing and transferring adipocyte specific transcripts, like PPARgamma, leptin and adiponectin. Here, we investigated whether EVs could be the way in which adipocytes transfer adipogenic RNAs in our coculture model.ResultsWe observed in hMSC-Ost incubated in hAdi-CM an increase in the adipogenic PPARγ, leptin, CEBPα and CEBPδ transcripts as well as the anti-osteoblastic miR-138, miR30c, miR125a, miR-125b, miR-31 miRNAs, probably implicated in the observed osteocalcin (OC) and osteopontin (OP) expression decrease. Moreover, EVs were isolated from conditioned media collected from cultures of hMSC at different stages of adipocyte differentiation and these specific adipogenic transcripts were detected inside. Finally, thanks to interspecies conditioned media exposition, we could highlight for the first time a horizontal transfer of adipogenic transcripts from medullary adipocytes to osteoblasts.ConclusionsHere, we have shown, for the first time, RNA transfer between hMSC-derived adipocytes and osteoblasts through EVs. Additional studies are needed to clarify if this mechanism has a role in the adipocytic switch driven on osteoblasts by adipocytes inside bone marrow and if EVs could be a target component to regulate the competition between osteoblasts and adipocytes in the prevention or in the therapy of osteoporosis and other osteopenia.
