HTLV-1 Tax transgenic mice develop spontaneous osteolytic bone metastases prevented by osteoclast inhibition

Abstract: One in 20 carriers of human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) will develop adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL), a disease frequently associated with hypercalcemia, bone destruction, and a fatal course refractory to current therapies. Overexpression of the HTLV-1-encoded Tax oncoprotein under the human granzyme B promoter causes large granular lymphocytic leukemia/lymphomas in mice. We found that Tax ؉ mice spontaneously developed hypercalcemia, highfrequency osteolytic bone metastases, and enhanced osteoc… Show more

“…However, the concentrations of bisphosphonates used in these studies range from 5 to 20 μmol/L for up to 72 hours, compared with the 2 μmol/L circulating plasma concentration detectable in breast cancer patients for 1 to 2 hours following the standard 4-mg infusion of zoledronic acid (17). Antitumor effects of bisphosphonates have also been reported in in vivo model systems that mimic tumorinduced bone disease from a variety of cancer types including breast (18,19), prostate (20), leukemia (21), and multiple myeloma (22). These studies also used high doses and frequent administration of zoledronic acid (from 120 μg/kg 2× per week to 120 μg/kg daily), whereas a clinically relevant dose of zoledronic acid (100 μg/kg 1× per month) was reported not to exert anticancer effects in a model of breast cancer bone metastases (23).…”

“…OC numbers, OC perimeter, bone marrow space, and bone erosion were measured according to a standard protocol as described previously, using ImagePro Plus, version 5.0 software (Media Cybernetics, Bethesda) (19). Peripheral soft tumor, visceral metastatic tumor, and mouse bone samples were processed as described previously (17). For in vivo BrdUrd labeling, 200 l of 1 mg/ml BrdUrd (Pharmingen) dissolved in phosphate-buffered saline was injected intraperitoneally into mice 24 h before mice necropsy.…”

“…RT-PCR was performed using an Invitrogen kit as described previously (17). Primers specific for mouse IFN-␥ receptor were synthesized by IDT, and the sequences are as follows: mouse IFN-␥ receptor forward, 5Ј-CAAATACCAGGATAACTACTG-3Ј, and mouse IFN-␥ receptor reverse, 5Ј-CGAAAGACGTCTG-TATCCCTC-3Ј.…”
