Bortezomib has been introduced recently in the therapy of multiple myeloma (MM), a disease that is frequently associated with progressive renal failure. Because bortezomib-based therapy has been reported to lead to a rapid recovery of kidney function in patients with MM, we decided to study its direct effects in proximal tubular epithelial cells (PTCs) compared with glomerular mesangial cells (GMCs). After 24 h of stimulation, 50 nM bortezomib led to a 6.37-fold induction of apoptosis and markedly activated caspase-9 and -3 in GMCs but not in PTCs. In PTCs but not in GMCs, bortezomib led to a strong time-dependent degradation of IkappaB-alpha and to a long-lasting phosphorylation of both NF-kappaBp65 and extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2. Microarray analysis in bortezomib-treated PTCs revealed a time-dependent predominance of antiapoptotic genes compared with proapoptotic genes. Bortezomib (50 nM) induced heat shock protein (Hsp) 70 mRNA and protein levels in PTCs, whereas basal and bortezomib-stimulated Hsp70 protein expression was much weaker in GMCs. Moreover, bortezomib induced Bcl-2-associated athanogene (BAG) 3 mRNA and protein expression but inhibited BAG5 mRNA levels in PTCs. These data suggest that the reduced susceptibility of PTCs to bortezomib-induced cell apoptosis is because of cell type-specific effects of this compound on apoptosis/survival genes and pathways. The concept of bortezomib representing a blocker of both NF-kappaB activation and cell survival should be carefully examined in particular renal cell types. |
