There is a continuous search for new therapeutic targets for treatment of multiple myeloma (MM). Here we investigated the mechanisms involved in cAMP-induced apoptosis of human MM cells, cAMP-increasing agents rapidly inhibited activation of JAK1 and its substrate STAT3. In line with STAT3 being a regulator of Mcl-1 transcription, the expression of this pro-survival factor was rapidly and selectively reduced. Notably, exogenous interleukin-6 neither prevented the inhibition of JAK1/STAT3 nor the death of MM cells induced by cAMP. Our results suggest that cAMP-mediated killing of MM cells involves inhibition of the JAK/STAT pathway, making the cAMP-pathway a promising target for treatment of MM. (c) 2013 Elsevier Ireland Ltd.
