Recent studies suggest that regulatory T cells (Tregs) are associated with disease severity and progression in papilloma virus induced neoplasia. Bovine papilloma virus (BPV) is recognised as the most important aetiological factor in equine sarcoid (ES) disease. The aim of this study was to compare expression levels of Treg markers and associated cytokines in tissue samples of ES-affected equids with skin samples of healthy control horses. Eleven ES-affected, and 12 healthy horses were included in the study. Expression levels of forkhead box protein 3 (FOXP3), interleukin 10 (IL10), interleukin 4 (IL4) and interferon gamma (IFNG) mRNA in lesional and tumour-distant samples from ES-affected horses, as well as in dermal samples of healthy control horses were measured using quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Expression levels were compared between lesional and tumour-distant as well as between tumour-distant and control samples. Furthermore, BPV-1 E5 DNA in samples of ES-affected horses was quantified using quantitative PCR, and possible associations of viral load, disease severity and gene expression levels were evaluated. Expression levels of FOXP3, IL10 and IFNG mRNA and BPV-1 E5 copy numbers were significantly increased in lesional compared to tumour-distant samples. There was no difference in FOXP3 and cytokine expression in tumour-distant samples from ES- compared with control horses. In tumour-distant samples viral load was positively correlated with IL10 expression and severity score. The increased expression of Treg markers in tumour-associated tissues of ES-affected equids indicates a local, Treg-induced immune suppression.

Though E2F1 is deregulated in most human cancers by mutations of the p16-cyclin D-Rb pathway, it also exhibits tumor suppressive activity. A transgenic mouse model overexpressing E2F1 under the control of the bovine keratin 5 (K5) promoter exhibits epidermal hyperplasia and spontaneously develops tumors in the skin and other epithelial tissues after one year of age. In a p53-deficient background, aberrant apoptosis in K5 E2F1 transgenic epidermis is reduced and tumorigenesis is accelerated. In sharp contrast, K5 E2F1 transgenic mice are resistant to papilloma formation in the DMBA/TPA two-stage carcinogenesis protocol. K5 E2F4 and K5 DP1 transgenic mice were also characterized and both display epidermal hyperplasia but do not develop spontaneous tumors even in cooperation with p53 deficiency. These transgenic mice do not have increased levels of apoptosis in their skin and are more susceptible to papilloma formation in the two-stage carcinogenesis model. These studies show that deregulated proliferation does not necessarily lead to tumor formation and that the ability to suppress skin carcinogenesis is unique to E2F1. E2F1 can also suppress skin carcinogenesis when okadaic acid is used as the tumor promoter and when a pre-initiated mouse model is used, demonstrating that E2F1's tumor suppressive activity is not specific for TPA and occurs at the promotion stage. E2F1 was thought to induce p53-dependent apoptosis through upregulation of p19ARF tumor suppressor, which inhibits mdm2-mediated p53 degradation. Consistent with in vitro studies, the overexpression of E2F1 in mouse skin results in the transcriptional activation of the p19ARF and the accumulation of p53. Inactivation of either p19ARF or p53 restores the sensitivity of K5 E2F1 transgenic mice to DMBA/TPA carcinogenesis, demonstrating that an intact p19ARF-p53 pathway is necessary for E2F1 to suppress carcinogenesis. Surprisingly, while p53 is required for E2F1 to induce apoptosis in mouse skin, p19ARF is not, and inactivation of p19ARF actually enhances E2F1-induced apoptosis and proliferation in transgenic epidermis. This indicates that ARF is important for E2F1-induced tumor suppression but not apoptosis. Senescence is another potential mechanism of tumor suppression that involves p53 and p19ARF. K5 E2F1 transgenic mice initiated with DMBA and treated with TPA show an increased number of senescence cells in their epidermis. These experiments demonstrate that E2F1's unique tumor suppressive activity in two-stage skin carcinogenesis can be genetically separated from E2F1-induced apoptosis and suggest that senescence utilizing the p19ARF-p53 pathway plays a role in tumor suppression by E2F1. ^

Purpose. We performed a case-comparison study to describe the characteristics of LUS tumors and their association with risk factors for endometrial cancer. ^ Patients and Methods. From January 1996 through October 2007, 3,892 women were identified with a diagnosis of primary endometrial carcinoma or primary cervical adenocarcinoma. Pathology records from the 1,009 women who had a hysterectomy were reviewed. Subjects were included in the LUS group only if the tumor was clearly originating from the area between the lower corpus and upper cervix in the hysterectomy specimen. The LUS group was compared to all patients with endometrial corpus carcinoma who underwent hysterectomy at our institution in a 12-month period randomly selected from the study period. Risk factors for endometrial carcinoma such as body mass index (BMI) and Lynch Syndrome were assessed. Expression of estrogen receptor (ER), vimentin, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), p16, and human papilloma virus DNA (HPV DNA) was assessed; this panel is known to be effective in distinguishing adenocarcinomas of endometrial versus endocervical origin. Fisher's Exact, Chi-square, Mann-Whitney, and Student's t-tests were utilized for statistical analysis. ^ Results. Thirty-five of 1,009 women had endometrial carcinoma of the LUS (3.5%; 95% CI: 2–4%). Compared to patients with corpus tumors, LUS patients were younger (54.2 vs. 62.9 years, P = .001), had higher stage (P < .001), and more invasive tumors (P = .001). Preoperative diagnosis of the LUS tumors more frequently included the possibility of endocervical adenocarcinoma ( P < .001), leading to preoperative radiation therapy in 4 patients. Median BMI was similar in the LUS and corpus groups. Seventy-three percent of the available LUS tumors had a similar immunohistochemical expression pattern to conventional endometrioid adenocarcinoma. Because of the young median age for the LUS group, we performed immunohistochemistry for Lynch syndrome-associated DNA mismatch repair proteins MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, and PMS2. Microsatellite instability testing (MSI) and MLH1 promoter hypermethylation were performed when indicated. Thirty-six percent of the LUS tumors were MSI-high. Ten of thirty-five (29%) women with LUS tumors were either confirmed to have Lynch Syndrome or were strongly suspected to have Lynch Syndrome based on tissue-based molecular assays (95% CI, 16 to 45%). ^ Conclusions. Endometrial carcinoma arising in the LUS is a clinical and pathologic entity which can be diagnostically confused with cervical adenocarcinoma. In general, LUS tumors can be correctly identified as being endometrial carcinoma using the immunohistochemical panel noted above. The prevalence of Lynch Syndrome in patients with LUS tumors is much greater than that of the general endometrial cancer population (1.8%) or in endometrial cancer patients younger than 50 years of age (8–9%). Based on our results, the possibility of Lynch Syndrome should be considered in women with LUS tumors. ^

The present study was designed to determine the potential anticarcinogenic activity of naturally occurring coumarins and their mechanism of action. The results indicated that several naturally occurring coumarins including bergamottin, coriandrin, imperatorin, isopimpinellin, and ostruthin, to which humans are routinely exposed in the diet, were effective inhibitors and/or inactivators of CYP1A1-mediated ethoxyresorufin-O-dealkylase (EROD) or CYP2B1-mediated pentoxyresorufin-O-dealkylase (PROD) in mouse liver microsomes. In addition, bergamottin and corandrin were also found to be inhibitors of purified human P450 1A1 in vitro. Further studies with coriandrin revealed that this compound was a mechanism-based inactivator of P450 1A1 and covalently bound to the P450 1A1 apoprotein. In cultured mouse keratinocytes, bergamottin and coriandrin effectively inhibited the B(a) P metabolism and significantly decreased covalent binding of B(a) P and DMBA to keratinocyte DNA and anti-diol-epoxide-DNA adducts derived from both B(a) P and DMBA in keratinocytes. The data from in vivo experiments showed that bergamottin and coriandrin were potent inhibitors of covalent binding of B (a) P to epidermal DNA and the formation of (+) anti BPDE-DNA adduct, whereas imperatorin and isopimpinellin were more potent inhibitors of covalent binding of DMBA to epidermal DNA. The ability of coumarins to inhibit covalent binding of B (a) P to DNA in mouse epidermis was positively correlated with their inhibitory effect P450 1A1 in vitro, while the inhibitory effect of coumarins on covalent binding of DMBA to epidermal DNA was positively correlated with their inhibitory effects on P450 2B1 and negatively to their inhibitory activity toward P450 1A1. The data from tumor experiments indicated that bergamottin, ostruthin, and coriandrin inhibited tumor initiation by B (a) P in a two-stage carcinogenesis protocol. Bergamottin was most effective in this regard and produced a dose dependent inhibition of papilloma formation in these experiments. In addition, imperatorin was an effective inhibitor of skin tumorigenesis induced by DMBA in SENCAR mouse skin using both a two-stage and a complete carcinogenesis protocol. At dose levels higher than those effective against DMBA, imperatorin also inhibited tumor initiation by B (a) P. The results to date demonstrate that several naturally occurring coumarins possess the ability to block tumor initiation and tumorigenesis by PAHs such as B (a) P and DMBA through inhibition of the P450s involved in the metabolic activation of these hydrocarbons. A working model for the involvement of specific P450s in the metabolic activation of these two PAHs was proposed. ^

Previous studies from our lab have shown distinctive patterns of expression of bcl-2 gene family members in human nonmelanoma skin cancer (NMSC). To further evaluate the significance of these observations and to study the effects of cell death deregulation during skin carcinogenesis, we generated a transgenic mouse model (HK1.bcl-2) using the human keratin 1 promoter to target the expression of a human bcl-2 minigene to the epidermis. Transgenic protein expression was confirmed in all the layers of the epidermis except the stratum corneum using immunohistochemistry. Multifocal epidermal hyperplasia, without associated hyperkeratosis, was observed in newborn HK1.bcl-2 mice. Immunofluorescence staining using monoclonal antibodies specific for a variety of differentiation markers revealed aberrant expression of keratin 6 (K6) in the transgenic epidermis. Epidermal proliferative indexes, assessed by anti-BrdUrd immunofluorescence staining, were similar in control and transgenic newborn mice, but suprabasal proliferating cells were seen within the hyperplastic areas of the transgenic mouse skin. Spontaneous apoptotic indices of the epidermis were similar in both control and HK1.bcl-2 transgenic newborn mice, however, after UV-B irradiation, the number of "sunburn cells" was significantly higher in the control compared to the HK1.bcl-2 transgenic animals.^ Adult HK1.bcl-2 and control littermate mice were used in UV-B and chemical carcinogenesis protocols including DMBA + TPA. UV-B irradiated control and HK1.bcl-2 mice had comparable incidence of tumors than the controls, but the mean latency period was significantly shorter in the HK1.bcl-2 transgenic. Both control and transgenic animals included in chemical carcinogenesis protocols required application of both the initiating (DMBA) and promoting (TPA) agents to develop tumors. The frequency, number, and latency of tumor formation was similar in both groups of animals, however, HK1.bcl-2 mice exhibited a rate of conversion from benign papilloma to carcinoma 2.5 times greater than controls.^ Similar carcinogenesis experiments were performed using newborn mice. HK1.bcl-2 mice treated with UV-B plus TPA have a three fold greater incidence of tumor formation compared to controls littermates. HK1.bcl-2 transgenic animals also exhibited a shorter latency for papilloma formation when treated with DMBA plus TPA.^ HK1.bcl-2/v-Ha-ras double transgenic mice shared phenotypic features of both HK1.v-Ha-ras and HK1.bcl-2 transgenic mice, and exhibited focal areas of augmented hyperplasia. These double transgenic mice were susceptible to tumor formation by treatment with TPA alone.^ Cultures of primary keratinocytes were established from control, HK1.bcl-2, HK1.Ha-ras, and HK1.bcl-2/v-Ha-ras newborn mice. Cell viability was determined after exposure of the cells to UV-B irradiation, DMBA, TPA, or TGF-$\beta$1. Internucleosomal DNA fragmentation ("ladders") and morphological cellular changes compatible with apoptotic cell death were observed after the application of all these agents. HK1.bcl-2 keratinocytes were resistant to cell death induction by all of these agents except TGF-$\beta$1. HK1.Ha-ras cells had a higher spontaneous rate of cell death which could be compensated by co-expression of bcl-2.^ These findings suggest that bcl-2 dependent cell death suppression may be an important component of multistep skin carcinogenesis. ^

To assess the effect of deregulated Ha-ras and bcl-2, individually and in combination on epidermal keratinocyte homeostasis and during multistep skin carcinogenesis, we generated skin-specific transgenic mice and keratinocyte transfectants constitutively expressing oncogenic Ha-ras and bcl-2 proteins. The deregulated Ha-ras and bcl-2 expression contributing to homeostatic imbalances in the skin had an additive effect on the probability of tumor development. They were also cooperative in incidence, growth, and latency of tumor formation, and they exhibited synergistic cooperation in malignant transformation of benign papillomas. To explain the homeostatic imbalances by Ha-ras and bcl-2 overexpression in the skin, we investigated the three major cellular processes of proliferation, cell death, and differentiation. Epidermal expression of Bcl-2 retarded keratinocyte proliferation in the epidermis of neonatal mice compared with results for control littermates. Constitutive expression of Ha-ras increased keratinocyte proliferation, and co-expression of bcl-2 modestly suppressed the ras-mediated abnormal proliferation of neonatal keratinocytes. Bcl-2 proteins in keratinocytes protected UV-treated cells from apoptotic cell death regardless of oncogenic ras expression in both non-neoplastic neonatal epidermis and human keratinocyte cell lines. The spontaneous apoptotic index (AI) was also lower in papillomas constitutively expressing bcl-2 compared with the ones that developed in control mice. Ras-overexpressing epidermis, including that in ras/bcl-2 double transgenic mice, had abnormal differentiation patterns compared with controls. The oncogenic ras protein had alterations in both epidermal distribution and the extent of cytokeratin 14 and involucrin expression. Abnormal expression of the hyperproliferation marker cytokeratin 6 and modest down regulation of cytokeratin 1 were also detected. Late appearance of filaggrin was another abnormal phenotype of the ras-expressing epidermis. Overexpression of bcl-2 had no effect on epidermal differentiation. Together, these findings suggest that constitutive expression of oncogenic Ha-ras and bcl-2 are important determinants of epidermal proliferation, viability and differentiation. In summary, our results demonstrated that the disruption of epidermal homeostasis by overexpressed ras and bcl-2 predisposes to hyperplastic growth of the epidermis and to papilloma development and that these proteins with distinct mechanisms for oncogenesis are functionally synergistic for malignant transformation of chemically induced skin carcinogenesis. ^

El virus del papiloma humano (VPH) (HPV en su sigla en inglés) es un virus ADN con especial afinidad por células epiteliales, tanto cutáneas como mucosas, que incluyen el epitelio del cérvix, región anogenital y orofaríngea. Existen más de 120 subtipos de VPH subdivididos en dos grupos según su bajo o alto riesgo de inducir actividad oncogénica. En cavidad oral la manifestación clínica benigna de la infección es el papiloma plano.Sin embargo, un 12% de los carcinoma~ o rofaríngeos son causados por este virus. Se ha demostrado que la infección por VPH tiene un papel independiente como factor de riesgo para el desarrollo de carcinoma espinocelular en cavidad oral.

Cancer is a progressive multigenic disorder characterized by defined changes in the transformed phenotype that culminates in metastatic disease. Determining the molecular basis of progression should lead to new opportunities for improved diagnostic and therapeutic modalities. Through the use of subtraction hybridization, a gene associated with transformation progression in virus- and oncogene-transformed rat embryo cells, progression elevated gene-3 (PEG-3), has been cloned. PEG-3 shares significant nucleotide and amino acid sequence homology with the hamster growth arrest and DNA damage-inducible gene gadd34 and a homologous murine gene, MyD116, that is induced during induction of terminal differentiation by interleukin-6 in murine myeloid leukemia cells. PEG-3 expression is elevated in rodent cells displaying a progressed-transformed phenotype and in rodent cells transformed by various oncogenes, including Ha-ras, v-src, mutant type 5 adenovirus (Ad5), and human papilloma virus type 18. The PEG-3 gene is transcriptionally activated in rodent cells, as is gadd34 and MyD116, after treatment with DNA damaging agents, including methyl methanesulfonate and γ-irradiation. In contrast, only PEG-3 is transcriptionally active in rodent cells displaying a progressed phenotype. Although transfection of PEG-3 into normal and Ad5-transformed cells only marginally suppresses colony formation, stable overexpression of PEG-3 in Ad5-transformed rat embryo cells elicits the progression phenotype. These results indicate that PEG-3 is a new member of the gadd and MyD gene family with similar yet distinct properties and this gene may directly contribute to the transformation progression phenotype. Moreover, these studies support the hypothesis that constitutive expression of a DNA damage response may mediate cancer progression.

We recently cloned an inward-rectifying K channel (Kir) cDNA, CCD-IRK3 (mKir 2.3), from a cortical collecting duct (CCD) cell line. Although this recombinant channel shares many functional properties with the “small-conductance” basolateral membrane Kir channel in the CCD, its precise subcellular localization has been difficult to elucidate by conventional immunocytochemistry. To circumvent this problem, we studied the targeting of several different epitope-tagged CCD-IRK3 in a polarized renal epithelial cell line. Either the 11-amino acid span of the vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) G glycoprotein (P5D4 epitope) or a 6-amino acid epitope of the bovine papilloma virus capsid protein (AU1) was genetically engineered on the extreme N terminus of CCD-IRK3. As determined by patch-clamp and two-microelectrode voltage-clamp analyses in Xenopus oocytes, neither tag affected channel function; no differences in cation selectivity, barium block, single channel conductance, or open probability could be distinguished between the wild-type and the tagged constructs. MDCK cells were transfected with tagged CCD-IRK3, and several stable clonal cell lines were generated by neomycin-resistance selection. Immunoprecipitation studies with anti-P5D4 or anti-AU1 antibodies readily detected the predicted-size 50-kDa protein in the transfected cells lines but not in wild-type or vector-only (PcB6) transfected MDCK cells. As visualized by indirect immunofluorescence and confocal microscopy, both the tagged CCD-IRK3 forms were exclusively detected on the basolateral membrane. To assure that the VSV G tag was not responsible for the targeting, the P5D4 epitope modified by a site-directed mutagenesis (Y2F) to remove a potential basolateral targeting signal contained in this tag. VSV(Y2F) was also detected exclusively on the basolateral membrane, confirming bona fide IRK3 basolateral expression. These observations, with our functional studies, suggest that CCD-IRK3 may encode the small-conductance CCD basolateral K channel.

Studies of mouse models of human cancer have established the existence of multiple tumor modifiers that influence parameters of cancer susceptibility such as tumor multiplicity, tumor size, or the probability of malignant progression. We have carried out an analysis of skin tumor susceptibility in interspecific Mus musculus/Mus spretus hybrid mice and have identified another seven loci showing either significant (six loci) or suggestive (one locus) linkage to tumor susceptibility or resistance. A specific search was carried out for skin tumor modifier loci associated with time of survival after development of a malignant tumor. A combination of resistance alleles at three markers [D6Mit15 (Skts12), D7Mit12 (Skts2), and D17Mit7 (Skts10)], all of which are close to or the same as loci associated with carcinoma incidence and/or papilloma multiplicity, is significantly associated with increased survival of mice with carcinomas, whereas the reverse combination of susceptibility alleles is significantly linked to early mortality caused by rapid carcinoma growth (χ2 = 25.22; P = 5.1 × 10−8). These data indicate that host genetic factors may be used to predict carcinoma growth rate and/or survival of individual backcross mice exposed to the same carcinogenic stimulus and suggest that mouse models may provide an approach to the identification of genetic modifiers of cancer survival in humans.

Vaccines harboring genes that encode functional oncoproteins are intrinsically hazardous, as their application may lead to introduction of these genes into normal cells and thereby to tumorigenesis. On the other hand, oncoproteins are especially attractive targets for immunotherapy of cancer, as their expression is generally required for tumor growth, making the arisal of tumor variants lacking these antigens unlikely. Using murine tumor models, we investigated the efficacy of polyepitope recombinant adenovirus (rAd) vaccines, which encode only the immunogenic T cell epitopes derived from several oncogenes, for the induction of protective anti-tumor immunity. We chose to employ rAd, as these are safe vectors that do not induce the side effects associated with, for example, vaccinia virus vaccines. A single polyepitope rAd was shown to give rise to presentation of both H-2 and human leukocyte antigen-restricted cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) epitopes. Moreover, vaccination with a rAd encoding H-2-restricted CTL epitopes, derived from human adenovirus type 5 early region 1 and human papilloma virus type 16-induced tumors, elicited strong tumor-reactive CTL and protected the vaccinated animals against an otherwise lethal challenge with either of these tumors. The protection induced was superior compared with that obtained by vaccination with irradiated tumor cells. Thus, vaccination with polyepitope rAd is a powerful approach for the induction of protective anti-tumor immunity that allows simultaneous immunization against multiple tumor-associated T cell epitopes, restricted by various major histocompatibility complex haplotypes.

The epithelial-specific integrin alpha 6 beta 4 is suprabasally expressed in benign skin tumors (papillomas) and is diffusely expressed in carcinomas associated with an increase in the proliferating compartment. Analysis of RNA samples by reverse transcriptase-PCR and DNA sequencing revealed that chemically or oncogenically induced papillomas (n = 8) expressed a single transcript of the alpha 6 subunit, identified as the alpha 6 A splice variant. In contrast, carcinomas (n = 13) expressed both alpha 6A and an alternatively spliced form, alpha 6B. Primary keratinocytes and a number of keratinocyte cell lines that vary in biological potential from normal skin, to benign papillomas, to well-differentiated slowly growing carcinomas exclusively expressed alpha 6A. However, I7, an oncogene-induced cell line that produces highly invasive carcinomas, expressed both alpha 6A and alpha 6B transcript and protein. The expression of alpha 6B in I7 cells was associated with increased attachment to a laminin matrix compared to cell lines exclusively expressing alpha 6A. Furthermore, introduction of an alpha 6B expression vector into a papilloma cell line expressing alpha 6A increased laminin attachment. When a papilloma cell line was converted to an invasive carcinoma by introduction of the v-fos oncogene, the malignant cells expressed both alpha 6A and alpha 6B, while the parent cell line and cells transduced with v-jun or c-myc, which retained the papilloma phenotype, expressed only alpha 6A. Comparative analysis of alpha 6B expression in cell lines and their derived tumors indicate that alpha 6B transcripts are more abundant in tumors than cell lines, and alpha 6B is expressed to a greater extent in poorly differentiated tumors. These results establish a link between malignant conversion and invasion of squamous tumor cells and the regulation of transcript processing of the alpha 6 beta 4 integrin.
