Abstract Patients with multiple myeloma (MM) experience relapse and drug resistance; therefore, novel treatments are essential. Clotrimazole (CTZ) is a wide-spectrum antifungal drug with antitumor activity. However, CTZ’s effects on MM are unclear. We investigated CTZ’s effect on MM cell proliferation and apoptosis induction mechanisms. CTZ’s effects on MM.1S, NCI- H929, KMS-11, and U266 cell growth were investigated using Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay. The apoptotic cell percentage was quantified with annexin V-fluorescein isothiocyanate/7-amino actinomycin D staining. Mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) and cell cycle progression were evaluated. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels were measured via fluorescence microscopy. Expression of apoptosis-related and nuclear factor (NF)-κB signaling proteins was analyzed using western blotting. The CCK-8 assay indicated that CTZ inhibited cell proliferation based on both dose and exposure time. Flow cytometry revealed that CTZ decreased apoptosis and MMP and induced G0/G1 arrest. Immunofluorescence demonstrated that CTZ dose-dependently elevated in both total and mitochondrial ROS production. Western blotting showed that CTZ enhanced Bax and cleaved poly ADP-ribose polymerase and caspase-3 while decreasing Bcl-2, p-p65, and p-IκBα. Therefore, CTZ inhibits MM cell proliferation by promoting ROS-mediated mitochondrial apoptosis, inducing G0/G1 arrest, inhibiting the NF-κB pathway, and has the potential for treating MM. |
