Abstract Bortezomib (BTZ) is a standard-of-care treatment in multiple myeloma (MM); however, adverse side effects and development of resistance limit its long term benefit. To improve target specificity, therapeutic efficacy, and overcome resistance, we designed nanoparticles that encapsulate BTZ and are surface-functionalized with BCMA antibodies (BCMA-BTZ-NPs). We confirmed efficient cellular internalization of the BCMA-BTZ-NPs only in BCMA-expressing MM cells, but not in BCMA-knockout (KO) cells. In addition, BCMA-BTZ-NPs showed target-specific cytotoxicity against MM cell lines and primary tumor cells from MM patients. The BCMA-BTZ-NPs entered the cell through receptor-mediated uptake, which escapes a mechanism of BTZ resistance based on upregulating P-glycoprotein. Furthermore, BCMA-BTZ-NPs induced cell death more efficiently than non-targeted nanoparticles or free BTZ, triggering potent mitochondrial depolarization followed by apoptosis. In BTZ-resistant cells, BCMA-BTZ-NPs inhibited proteasome activity more effectively than free BTZ or non-targeted nanoparticles. Additionally, BCMA-BTZ-NPs enhanced immunogenic cell death and activated the autophagic pathway more than free BTZ. Finally, we found that BCMA-BTZ-NPs selectively accumulated at the tumor site in a murine xenograft model, enhanced tumor reduction, and prolonged host survival. These results suggest BCMA-BTZ-NPs provide a promising therapeutic strategy for enhancing the efficacy of BTZ and establish a framework for their evaluation in a clinical setting. |
