PG - 1009-15 LID - 10.1158/0008-5472.CAN-08-2419 [doi] AB - The bone marrow microenvironmental components interleukin (IL)-6 and fibronectin (FN) individually influence the proliferation and survival of multiple myeloma (MM) cells; however, in vivo, these effectors most likely work together. We examined signaling events, cell cycle progression, and levels of drug response in MM cells either adhered to FN via beta1 integrins, stimulated with IL-6, or treated with the two combined. Although G(1)-S cell cycle arrest associated with FN adhesion was overcome when IL-6 was added, the cell adhesion-mediated drug resistance (CAM-DR) was maintained in the presence of IL-6. Concomitant exposure of MM cells to IL-6 and FN adhesion revealed a dramatic increase in signal transducers and activators of transcription 3 (STAT3) phosphorylation, nuclear translocation, and DNA binding, compared with either IL-6 or FN adhesion alone in four MM cell lines. Importantly, this increase in STAT3 activation correlated with a novel association between STAT3 and gp130 in cells adhered to FN before stimulation with IL-6, relative to nonadherent cells. Taken together, these results suggest a mechanism by which collaborative signaling by beta1 integrin and gp130 confers an increased survival advantage to MM cells.
