Full description or Abstract
Our previous study demonstrated that 2-methoxyestradiol (2ME2),
an estrogen derivative, induces apoptosis in multiple myeloma
(MM) cells; however, the related transcriptional events are unclear.
In the present study, we used oligonucleotide microarrays to identify
genes altered during 2ME2-induced apoptosis in MM cells. 2ME2
triggers an early transient induction of genes known to trigger
cell death and repression of growth/survival-related genes. Many
genes regulating cell defense/repair machinery also were transiently
induced. Since 2ME2 also induces apoptosis in MM cells resistant
to conventional therapies such as dexamethasone (Dex), we compared
the gene profiles of 2ME2-treated and Dex-resistant MM cells.
Our results suggest that 2ME2 overcomes Dex resistance by modulating
genes that confer chemoresistance in MM cells. Microarray results
were confirmed by Northern and Western blot analyses. A comparative
analysis of selected genes from freshly isolated MM patient cells
and 2ME2-treated MM.1S MM cells further provides an in vivo relevance
of our in vitro studies. Collectively, these findings suggest
genetic events mediating anti-MM activity of 2ME2, as well as
mechanisms whereby 2ME2 overcomes Dex resistance in MM cells.
These studies may therefore allow improved therapeutic use of
2ME2, based upon targeting genes that regulate MM cell growth
and survival.
