Leukemia cells bearing the Philadelphia (Ph) chromosome express a Bcr-Abl fusion protein with deregulated protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) activity, which plays a central role in the malignant transformation. Many different signal transduction pathways are activated by Bcr-Abl, but little is known about their downstream targets in specific cell lineages. We show here that Ph-positive cell lines as well as primary cells derived from chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in lymphoid blast crisis or from acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) consistently express high levels of cyclin D2, whereas expression of this protein is low or absent in comparable Ph-negative lines and Ph-positive myeloid lines. Inhibition of Bcr-Abl with STI571 resulted in down-regulation of cyclin D2 and reduction of the number of cells in S phase, although complete G 1 arrest was not induced. The expression of cyclin D2 in Ph-positive lymphoblasts was mediated via the phosphatidyl-inositol-3 kinase pathway. Analogous results were seen

E2F transcription factors control diverse biological processes through regulation of target gene expression. However, the mechanism by which this regulation is established, and the relative contribution of each E2F member are still poorly defined. We have investigated the role of E2F2 in regulating cellular proliferation. We show that E2F2 is required for the normal G

(Requests for offprints should be addressed to R I Nicholson) Multiple lines of evidence implicate steroid hormone and growth factor cross-talk as a modulator of endocrine response in breast cancer and that aberrations in growth factor signaling pathways are a common element in the endocrine resistant phenotype. Delineation of these relationships is thus an important diagnostic goal in cancer research, while the targeting of aberrant growth factor signaling holds the promise of improving therapeutic response rates.

Genetic disorders arising from copy number variations in the ERK (extracellular signal-regulated kinase) MAP (mitogen-activated protein) kinases or mutations in their upstream regulators that result in neuro-cardio-facial-cutaneous syndromes are associated with developmental abnormalities, cognitive deficits, and autism.Wedevelopedmurinemodels of these disorders by deleting the ERKs at the beginning of neurogenesis and report disrupted cortical progenitor generation and proliferation, which leads to altered cytoarchitecture of the postnatal brain in a gene-dose-dependentmanner.We show that these changes are due to ERK-dependent dysregulation of cyclin D1 and p27Kip1, resulting in cell cycle elongation, favoring neurogenic over self-renewing divisions. The precocious neurogenesis causes premature progenitor pool depletion, altering the number and distribution of pyramidal neurons. Importantly, loss of ERK2 alters the intrinsic excitability of cortical neurons and contributes to perturbations in global network activity. These changes are associated with elevatedanxiety and impairedworkingandhippocampal-dependentmemory in thesemice.Thisstudyprovidesanovelmechanistic insight into the basis of corticalmalformationwhichmay provide a potential link to cognitive deficits in individuals with altered ERKactivity.

Cytochrome P450-1A1 (CYP1A1) is an extrahepatic phase I metabolizing enzyme whose expression is suppressed under physiologic conditions but can be induced by substrates via the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR). Recent studies have shown that the majority of breast cancer tumors constitutively express CYP1A1. These findings led us to test the hypothesis that CYP1A1 promotes breast cancer progression by evaluating the effects of CYP1A1 knockdown on the proliferation and survival of the MCF7 and MDA-MB-231 lines. Independently of estrogen receptor status, CYP1A1 knockdown decreased colony formation, decreased cell proliferation, blocked the cell cycle at G0-G1 associated with reduction of cyclin D1, and increased apoptosis associated with reduction of survivin. CYP1A1 knockdown markedly increased phosphorylation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and decreased phosphorylation of AKT, extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1 and 2 (ERK1/2), and 70-kDa ribosomal protein S6 kinase (P70S6K). AMPK inhibition by compound C partially abrogated the proapoptotic effects of CYP1A1 knockdown, suggesting that effects of CYP1A1 knockdown are mediated in part through AMPK signaling. Consistent with CYP1A1 knockdown, pharmacologic reduction of CYP1A1 levels by the phytopolyphenol carnosol also correlated with impaired proliferation and induced AMPK phosphorylation. These results indicate that reduction of basal CYP1A1 expression is critical for inhibition of proliferation, which is not affected by a-naphthoflavone-mediated inhibition of CYP1A1 activity nor modulated by AhR silencing. This study supports the notion that CYP1A1 promotes breast cancer proliferation and survival, at least in part, through suppression of AMPK signaling and that reduction of CYP1A1 levels is a potential strategy for breast cancer therapeutics.
