We postulated that proteasome inhibition (PI) may be useful in the treatment of SLE by targeting plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) and plasma cells (PCs), both critical to disease pathogenesis. Lupus prone mice were treated with the non-selective PIs carfilzomib and bortezomib, the LMP7-selective immunoproteasome inhibitor ONX 0914, or vehicle control. Tissues were harvested and analyzed by flow cytometry using standard markers. Nephritis was monitored by proteinuria and kidney harvest. Serum anti-dsDNA levels were measured by ELISA and total IgG and dsDNA antibody secreting cells (ASC) by ELIspot. Human PBMCs or mouse bone marrow cells were incubated with TLR agonists and PIs and interferon α measured by ELISA and flow cytometry. Early treatment of lupus prone mice with the dual targeting PIs carfilzomib or bortezomib or the immunoproteasome specific inhibitor ONX 0914 prevented disease progression, and treatment of mice with established disease dramatically abrogated nephritis. Treatment had profound effects on plasma cells with greater reductions in autoreactive than total IgG ASCs, an effect that became more pronounced with prolonged treatment, and was reflected in decreasing serum autoantibodies. Remarkably, proteasome inhibition efficiently suppressed production of interferon α by toll-like receptor activated pDCs in vitro and in vivo, an effect mediated by both an inhibition of pDC survival and function. Inhibition of the immunoproteasome is equally efficacious to dual targeting agents in preventing lupus disease progression by targeting two critical pathways in disease pathogenesis, type I interferon activation and autoantibody production by plasma cells.
