Crosstalk between Aurora-A and p53: frequent deletion or downregulation of Aurora-A in tumors from p53 null mice (VSports最新版本)

Jian-Hua Mao et al. Cancer Cell. 2007 Feb.

Abstract

The Aurora-A kinase gene is amplified in a subset of human tumors and in radiation-induced lymphomas from p53 heterozygous mice. Normal tissues from p53-/- mice have increased Aurora-A protein levels, but lymphomas from these mice exhibit heterozygous deletions of Aurora-A and/or reduced protein expression. A similar correlation between low p53 levels and Aurora-A gene deletions and expression is found in human breast cancer cell lines. In vitro studies using mouse embryo fibroblasts demonstrate that inhibition of Aurora-A can have either positive or negative effects on cell growth as a function of p53 status. These data have implications for the design of approaches to targeted cancer therapy involving the crosstalk between Aurora-A kinase and p53 pathways. VSports手机版.

Figure 1. Unsupervised Cluster Analysis of Genetic Changes in Thymic Lympho-mas from p53+/− Compared to p53−/− Mice
p53 status of the mice is denoted by the colored bars. (A) Comparison of genetic changes in radiation-induced thymic lymphomas from p53+/− and p53−/− mice. The locations of the Fbwx7 and c-Myc loci are denoted by arrows. (B) Comparison of genetic changes in spontaneous thymic lymphomas from p53+/− and p53−/− mice. (C) Lack of effect of radiation in determination of tumor latency in p53−/− mice. The graph shows the proportion of surviving mice at different time points after birth. There is no statistically significant difference between mice in both groups (tested by Kaplan-Meier method using SPSS package). p53+/− mice are very sensitive to radiation, and a single dose of 4 Gy decreases their average lifespan by about 30 weeks. The cluster analyses were carried out using Cluster V3.0 (http://rana.stanford.edu/software).

(A) Frequency of somatic gain/loss of Aurora-A in lymphomas as a function of p53 status. (B–D) Representative BAC array profiles of chromosome 2 in tumors from p53+/− mice. The arrows indicate the position of the Aurora-A gene, which is frequently gained in tumors from p53+/− mice. (E and F) Loss of the Aurora-A gene in tumors from p53−/− mice. (G) Detection of Aurora-A genetic alterations in radiation-induced tumors from p53 heterozygous mice (HR) by TaqMan assay. (H) Detection of Aurora-A protein levels in radiation-induced tumors from p53 heterozygous mice (HR) by western blotting. The first four lanes show levels of Aurora-A in normal thymus from unirradiated p53+/− mice. Tumors in lanes labeled HR 1–20 correspond to those labeled HR1–HR20 in (G). (I) Detection of Aurora-A genetic alterations in radiation-induced tumors from p53 null mice (NR) by TaqMan assay. (J) Detection of Aurora-A protein levels in radiation-induced tumors from p53 null mice (NR) by western blotting. The first four lanes show levels of Aurora-A in normal thymus from unirradiated p53−/− mice. These are consistently higher than in corresponding p53+/− mice (H). Tumors in lanes labeled NR 1–20 correspond to those labeled NR1–NR20 in (I).

Figure 3. Alteration of Aurora-A Gene Copy Number and Expression in Human Breast Cancer Cell Lines and Primary Tumors
(A) Detection of Aurora-A gene copy number changes in human breast cancer cell lines by TaqMan assay using Aurora-A-specific probes. The names of the cell lines used are shown below the TaqMan data. (B) Detection of Aurora-A protein levels in same set of human breast cancer cell lines by western blotting. The order of the cell lines used from left to right is the same as in (A). (C) Comparison of Aurora-A RNA levels between p53+VE (on the right, dark bars) and p53−VE (on the left, open bars) human breast cancer cell lines. Aurora-A RNA levels were derived from Affymetrix array data using two separate probes (204092_s_at and 208709_s_at). p53 protein level was determined by western blotting. p53+VE denotes tumors with detectable p53 protein by western blotting, whereas p53−VE denotes tumors with no p53 protein. A low Aurora-A RNA level was significantly correlated with a low p53 protein level. (D) Protein levels of p53 and AURORA-A in human breast cancer cell lines determined by western blotting. (E) Comparison of quantitated Aurora-A protein level between p53+VE and p53−VE human breast cancer cell lines. Low Aurora-A protein level was significantly correlated with low p53 protein level. The thick line represents the median, whereas thin lines are ranges, i.e., minimum and maximum number. The box shows 95% confident intervals of median. (F) Comparison of Aurora-A RNA levels between p53+VE and p53−VE human primary breast tumors. Aurora-A RNA levels were derived from Affymetrix microarray data. P53 protein levels were determined by immunobiochemical staining. For details, see Experimental Procedures.
Figure 4
Figure 4. Aurora-A Downregulation by RNAi in p53 Heterozygous and Null MEFs
Two controls for the experiment were pSUPER vector without RNAi or with scrambled RNAi (see Experimental Procedures), both of which gave the same results. (A) Aurora-A protein levels are downregulated by RNAi in p53−/− MEFs after selection with 2 μg/ml puromycin. (B) Downregulation of Aurora-A in p53+/− MEFS produces a clear growth disadvantage at early passages, but growth advantage at late passages, compared with their untransfected counterparts. p53 null MEFs transfected with the same RNAi construct showed similar behavior independently of the presence of Aurora-A RNAi at early passages, and a clear growth advantage at late passages. (C) Loss of the remaining p53 allele in p53+/− MEFs treated with Aurora-A RNAi. p53+/− cells in the presence of scrambled (control) RNAi maintain the normal p53 allele until around passage 25, but p53+/− cells treated with Aurora-A RNAi lose the wild-type p53 allele between passages 5 and 10. (D) Percentage of BrdU-positive cells in p53−/− cultures treated with Aurora-A RNAi (right column) compared to controls (left column). Experiments were carried out with cells at passages 1 and 6. Inhibition of Aurora-A leads to a net increase in the number of proliferating cells. This experiment was repeated three times and the results are statistically significant (*p < 0.01). Error bars stand for mean ± SD of three different experiments. (E) FACS profiles of p53−/− cells in the presence or absence of Aurora-A RNAi. The same cell populations used for the analyses shown in (D) were analyzed by flow cytometry. The proportion of cells in the G2/M phases of the cell cycle was substantially reduced, suggesting, when taken together with the BrdU incorporation assay shown in (D), that inhibition of Aurora-A releases a G2/M checkpoint and stimulates cell cycle progression. Error bars stand for mean ± SD of three different experiments.
Figure 5
Figure 5. Downregulation of Aurora-A Partially Rescues Genomic Instability in p53 Null MEFs
p53 null MEFs grown in the presence or absence of Aurora-A RNAi were harvested at the passage levels shown and subjected to FACS analysis of cell cycle profiles. The percentage of aneuploid cells (de-fined as cells with >2N DNA content) increases with passage level of both treated and untreated cultures, but the degree of aneuploidy was significantly reduced by expression of the Aurora-A RNAi (*p < 0.01). Error bars stand for mean ± SD of three different experiments.
Figure 6
Figure 6. Proposed Model for the Disruption of the Feedback Loop between Aurora-A and p53 in Mouse Lymphoma-genesis
In normal cells with wild-type p53 function, Aurora-A levels are controlled at least in part by the Fbxw7 ubiquitin ligase (left upper panel) (Mao et al., 2004; Fujii et al., 2006). Loss of p53 in normal thymus leads to downregulation of Fbxw7 expression and consequent upregulation of Aurora-A at the protein level (right upper panel). In transformed cells from p53+/− mice, Aurora-A levels are increased by gene copy number gains or by loss of Fbxw7 (or a combination of both, since Fbxw7 also affects other targets). Subsequent loss of p53 in this case presumably does not change Aurora-A levels, because of disruption of this feedback loop. In p53−/− normal cells, Aurora-A levels are already very high, such that in some cases, additional events are required to reduce the protein level to within an acceptable window. This is accomplished in some cases, both in mouse and human tumors, by single copy gene deletions. The range of levels of Aurora-A seen in tumors from p53+/− and p53−/− mice is quite similar, but the mechanisms that result in these levels can be different depending on p53 status.
