Abstract
Objective: To explore the mechanism of ibrutinib on drug resistance diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) cells. Methods: DLBCL cell line was cultured with mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) , and DLBCL cells which migrated and adhered to MSC under microscope was counted. The secretion of CXCL12 by MSC were measured by ELISA. The expression of CXCR4 on DLBCL cells were measured by flow cytometry, HBL-1 cells were transfected with a CXCR4-lentivector. An Annexin Ⅴ-binding assay was used to detect the induction of apoptosis. Clonogenic growth of DLBCL cells was evaluated on MethoCult media. Ibrutinib was injected into NOD/SCID mice, tumor growth was assessed via caliper measurements every 3 days. Results: MSC promoted migration and adhesion of DLBCL cells to MSC. Ibrutinib inhibited migration and adhesion of DLBCL cells to MSC in a dose-dependent manner (P<0.05) . CXCL12 secreted by MSC and CXCR4 expressed on DLBCL cells could induce each other, which upgraded the levels of secretion and expression. Ibrutinib could inhibit the secretion of CXCL12 (SUDHL10: 660 pg/ml vs 1 400 pg/ml, P=0.004; HBL-1: 720 pg/ml vs 1 490 pg/ml, P=0.018; DLBCL:850 pg/ml vs 1 450 pg/ml, P=0.004) and expression of CXCR4 (P<0.05) . When co-cultured with MSC, the ratio of HBL-1 cells apoptosis in the group of control, mitoxantrone, ibrutinib, mitoxantrone+ibrutinib were respectively 15.1%, 17.5%, 23.5%, 58.7%. After transfected with a CXCR4-lentivector and overexpressed CXCR4, the ratios of HBL-1 cells apoptosis were 14.2%, 16.1%, 22.5%, 38.3% respectively. The ratio of DLBCL cells apoptosis induced by mitoxantrone was lower when co-cultured with MSC (P<0.05) . But with the addition of ibrutinib, the ratio of apoptosis was increaed and it was similar to cultivation without MSC, which suggested ibrutinib could inhibit drug-resistance induced by MSC. But after transfected with a CXCR4-lentivector, the overexpression of CXCR4 was detected and the ratio of apoptosis was significantly lower when co-cultured with MSC which demonstrated that ibrutinib inhibited drug-resistance by inhibiting the expression of CXCR4. MSC enhanced lymphoma clonogenicity in vitro and lymphoma cell growth in vivo. The number of colonies of control, MSC, Ibrutinib, MSC+Ibrutinib were 113±5, 205±4, 62±9, 123±3 (2.5×10(3)/well, x±s) , respectively. The tumor volume of NOD/SCID mice were respectively 6 500, 17 000, 4 000, 10 000 mm(3). Ibrutinib inhibited lymphoma clonogenicity in vitro and lymphoma cell growth in vitro. Conclusion: Ibrutinib targeted the CXCL12/CXCR4 axis, inhibited the expression of CXCR4 and inhibited MSC-mediated drug resistance. Ibrutinib also inhibited lymphoma clonogenicity in vitro and lymphoma cell growth in vivo. These results provided a scientific rationality for relapsed/refractory DLBCL treatment with ibrutinib.

虽然多数弥漫大B细胞淋巴瘤(diffuse large B cell lymphoma,DLBCL)患者对初始治疗非常敏感,但仍有约30%的患者死于耐药和疾病进展[1]。DLBCL预后差被认为可能与肿瘤微环境中的细胞因子和趋化因子有关[2]。有研究者发现白血病和淋巴瘤患者骨髓中CXCL12/CXCR4表达持续上调,导致肿瘤细胞持续增长,造成传统化疗药物耐药和疾病复发[3]。近年来,针对BTK的靶向抑制剂依布替尼因其较好的疗效已被FDA批准应用于慢性淋巴细胞白血病(CLL)的一线治疗和套细胞淋巴瘤(MCL)的二线治疗中;同时,针对复发/难治性DLBCL的多个临床试验也在进行中,初步结果令人鼓舞。但该药是否能克服肿瘤微环境介导的DLBCL的耐药目前鲜有研究。本研究旨在探讨骨髓基质细胞(MSC)通过CXCL12/CXCR4轴介导DLBCL细胞耐药以及依布替尼克服该耐药的机制。
