Tp53-dependentpati'ern of Cdkn2a/arfpathway Inactivation
Acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) is known to prevent cancer development, but its mechanism of action remains unclear. In this study, we compared the efTicacies of this nonspecific cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitor with N-[2(cyclohexyloxy)-4-nitrophenyl]-methanesulfonamide (NS-398), a specific COX-2 inhibitor. COX-2-specificinhibitors are less toxic than ASA. Lung tumorigenesis was induced in A/J mice by...
متن کاملMolecular and Epigenetic Mechanisms of MLL in Human Leukemogenesis
Epigenetics is often defined as the study of heritable changes in gene expression or chromosome stability that don't alter the underlying DNA sequence. Epigenetic changes are established through multiple mechanisms that include DNA methylation, non-coding RNAs and the covalent modification of specific residues on histone proteins. It is becoming clear not only that aberrant epigenetic changes a...
متن کاملBMI-1 promotes ewing sarcoma tumorigenicity independent of CDKN2A repression.
Deregulation of the polycomb group gene BMI-1 is implicated in the pathogenesis of many human cancers. In this study, we have investigated if the Ewing sarcoma family of tumors (ESFT) expresses BMI-1 and whether it functions as an oncogene in this highly aggressive group of bone and soft tissue tumors. Our data show that BMI-1 is highly expressed by ESFT cells and that, although it does not sig...
متن کاملAn insertional mutagenesis screen identifies genes that cooperate with Mll-AF9 in a murine leukemogenesis model.
Patients with a t(9;11) translocation (MLL-AF9) develop acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and while in mice the expression of this fusion oncogene also results in the development of myeloid leukemia, it is with long latency. To identify mutations that cooperate with Mll-AF9, we infected neonatal wild-type (WT) or Mll-AF9 mice with a murine leukemia virus (MuLV). MuLV-infected Mll-AF9 mice succumbed...
متن کاملPresence and location of TP53 mutation determines pattern of CDKN2A/ARF pathway inactivation in bladder cancer.
Transformation and immortalization require the inactivation of key cell cycle regulatory genes. We examined 19 bladder cancer cell lines derived from 17 patients for alterations in TP53, RB1, CDKN2A, and ARF. Twelve cell lines had a mutation in exons 5-11 of TP53 and, with only one exception, a concomitant loss of RB1 protein expression. Another group of seven cell lines had a wild-type TP53 ge...
