Background: Inositol-requiring enzyme 1α (IRE1α), along with protein kinase R-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase (PERK), is a principal regulator of the unfolded protein response (UPR). Recently, the 'mono'-specific IRE1α inhibitor, kinase-inhibiting RNase attenuator 6 (KIRA6), demonstrated a promising effect against multiple myeloma (MM). Side-stepping the clinical translation, a detailed UPR phenotype in patients with MM and the mechanisms of how KIRA8 works in MM remains unclear. Methods: We characterized UPR phenotypes in the bone marrow of patients with newly diagnosed MM. Then, in human MM cells we analyzed the possible anti-tumor mechanisms of KIRA8 and a Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved drug, nilotinib, which we recently identified as having a strong inhibitory effect against IRE1α activity. Finally, we performed an RNA-sequence analysis to detect key IRE1α-related molecules against MM. Results: We illustrated the dominant induction of adaptive UPR markers under IRE1α over the PERK pathway in patients with MM. In human MM cells, KIRA8 decreased cell viability and induced apoptosis, along with the induction of C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP); its combination with bortezomib exhibited more anti-myeloma effects than KIRA8 alone. Nilotinib exerted a similar effect compared with KIRA8. RNA-sequencing identified Polo-like kinase 2 (PLK2) as a KIRA8-suppressed gene. Specifically, the IRE1α overexpression induced PLK2 expression, which was decreased by KIRA8. KIRA8 and PLK2 inhibition exerted anti-myeloma effects with apoptosis induction and the regulation of cell proliferation. Finally, PLK2 was pathologically confirmed to be highly expressed in patients with MM. Conclusion: Dominant activation of adaptive IRE1α was established in patients with MM. Both KIRA8 and nilotinib exhibited anti-myeloma effects, which were enhanced by bortezomib. Adaptive IRE1α signaling and PLK2 could be potential therapeutic targets and biomarkers in MM.
