Abstract | :
Objective: To investigate the effects of proteasome beta 5 subunit (PSMB5) on proliferation and bortezomib (BTZ) chemo-sensitivity of multiple myeloma (MM) and its related molecular mechanisms. Methods: We used two MM cell lines, RPMI 8226 and BTZ drug-resistant cell line RPMI 8226/BTZ100 (hereinafter referred to as BTZ100) , as the research object. PSMB5 was overexpressed or knocked down in two myeloma cell lines via lentivirus transfection. CCK8 assay was used to detect the impact of PSMB5 on cell viability and bortezomib sensitivity in human myeloma cells; Using flow cytometry to test the effects of PSMB5 on apoptosis rate of human myeloma cells under the treatment of bortezomib; Apoptosis-related gene expression of Bax, Bcl-2, p-Akt and cleaved caspase-3 were detected by Western blot. Results: ①PSMB5 overexpression and knockdown were successfully constructed in RPMI 8226 and BTZ100 cells. ②PSMB5 expression was positively correlated with cell proliferation of RPMI 8226 and BTZ100 cells (P<0.05) . ③The cell viability was lower after PSMB5 knockdown in RPMI 8226 cells than control cells under the same concentration of BTZ[IC(50) at 24 h: (7.01±0.47) and (9.64±0.55) nmol/L respectively, t=6.289, P=0.003]. The cell viability was higher after PSMB5 overexpression in RPMI 8226 cells than control cells under the same concentration of BTZ[IC(50) at 24 h: (10.99±0.58) and (9.51±0.37) nmol/L respectively, t=3.724, P=0.020) . PSMB5 expression was negatively correlated with the sensitivity of RPMI 8226 cells to BTZ. The results of BTZ100 cells were similar. ④The expression of PSMB5 was negatively correlated with the apoptosis of RPMI 8226 and BTZ100 under the treatment of BTZ. ⑤Meanwhile, PSMB5 knockdown could increase the expression of pro-apoptosis gene Bax and cleaved caspase-3 and decrease the expression of anti-apoptotic gene Bcl-2 and p-Akt. PSMB5 over-expression has the opposite results. Conclusion: PSMB5 knockdown could improve the bortezomib sensitivity of MM cells via activation of apoptosis signaling. PSMB5 may be a potential therapeutic target for MM. |
