Overexpression of MDM‐2 mRNA and mutation of the p53 tumor suppressor gene in bladder carcinoma cell lines

Abstract: To investigate the importance of oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes in bladder carcinogenesis, we determined the status of the expression of the MDM-2 and p53 genes and genetic alterations in the p53 gene in five bladder carcinoma cell lines and one kidney urothelial carcinoma cell line. Overexpression of MDM-2 mRNA was observed in three bladder carcinoma cell lines, J82, SCaBER, and BFTC-905. Amplification of the MDM-2 gene was not detected in any of the six cell lines by southern analysis. The deletion in … Show more

“…The human urinary bladder carcinoma J82 cell line hosts wild-type ras genes and is not tumorigenic to immunedeficient mice (15,16,21). In our studies, introduction of the oncogenic H-ras gene into J82 cells promoted cells to acquire the tumorigenic ability to develop xenograft tumors in immune-deficient mice; however, it was also accompanied by the novel proapoptotic property for FR901228 and TSA to induce selective apoptosis.…”

“…J82 cells host the mutant p53 gene (15), and the mutant p53 protein was progressively and substantially reduced in J82 and J82-Ras cells undergoing FR901228-induced growth arrest followed by apoptosis. It has been suggested that FR901228 induces a novel p53-related feedback activity that results in depletion of mutant p53 protein in association with increased cytotoxicity of FR901228 to tumor cells (40,41).…”

“…It is plausible that tumour cells in which high levels of MDM2 suppress p53 may allow E1B-deleted adenovirus replication. BFTC-905 cells have been shown to overexpress MDM2 mRNA (Cheng et al, 1995), which may explain in part why Ad5WS1 at high doses caused CPE, albeit to a very small extent, in bladder cancer cells harbouring wild-type p53. Further analysis of the p53 pathway in bladder cancer cells may answer part of this question.…”

“…These levels were consistent with those recorded after overexpression of p53 through DNA damage or apoptotic insult . Although allelic exclusion or mutations in MDM2 have been associated with abnormalities in p53 in numerous cell lines (Cheng et al, 1995), it appears that differential MDM2 expression was not responsible for the differences in apoptotic response demonstrated by U87-Lux.8 and U87-175.4.…”
