We have recently shown that proteasome inhibitor PS-341 induces apoptosis in drug-resistant multiple myelloma (MM) cells, inhibits binding of MM cells in the bone marrow microenvironment, and inhibits cytokines mediating MM cell growth, survival, drug resistance, and I migration in vitro. PS-341 also inhibits human MM cell growth and prolongs survival in a SCID mouse model. Importantly, PS-341 has achieved remarkable clinical res. ponses in patients with refractory relapsed MM. We here demonstrate molecular mechanisms whereby PS-341 mediates anti-MM activity by inducing p53 and MDM2 protein expression; inducing the phosphorylation (Ser15) of p53 protein; activating c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK), caspase-8, and caspase-3; and cleaving the DNA protein kinase catalytic subunit, ATM, and MDM2. Inhibition of JNK activity a abrogates PS-341-induced MM cell death. These studies identify molecular targets of PS-341 and provide the rationale for the development of second-generation, more targeted therapies. (C) 2003 by The American Society of Hematology.
