MDM2 is a key negative regulator of the tumor suppressor p53, however, the prognostic significance of MDM2 overexpression in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) has not been defined convincingly. In a p53 genetically-defined large cohort of de novo DLBCL patients treated with rituximab, cyclophosphamide, hydroxydaunorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CHOP) chemotherapy, we assessed MDM2 ...
We have reported earlier that ectopic expression of mouse double minute-2 (MDM2) induces G1 arrest in normal cells. To explain occasional overexpression of MDM2 in cancer cells, we searched for deletion or substitution mutation in the growth suppressor domains of MDM2 in several breast cancer cell lines that overexpress the oncoprotein. Our results suggest the absence of alteration (deletion or...
The tumor suppressor protein p53 is a transcription factor that induces G1 arrest of the cell cycle and/or apoptosis. The murine double-minute protein MDM2 and its homologue MDM4 (also known as MDMX) are critical regulators of p53. Altered transcripts of the human homologue of mdm2, MDM2 , have been identified in human tumors, such as invasive carcinoma of the breast, lung carcinoma, and liposa...
The ubiquitin ligase Mdm2 targets the p53 tumor suppressor protein for proteasomal degradation. Mutating phosphorylation sites in the central domain of Mdm2 prevents p53 degradation, although it is still ubiquitylated, indicating that Mdm2 has a post-ubiquitylation function for p53 degradation. We show that Mdm2 associates with several subunits of the 19S proteasome regulatory particle in a ubi...
Following stress signals, the p53 tumor suppressor protein plays a critical role in regulation of cell proliferation, mainly through induction of growth arrest or apoptosis. Therefore, this protein needs to be strictly regulated and numerous studies have shown that the MDM2 protein is an essential element for p53 regulation in normal cells and, most importantly, that overexpression of MDM2 is r...
The tumor suppressor p53 is a potent transcription factor of which the ability to mediate transcription is inhibited through an interaction with the oncoprotein mouse double minute 2 (Mdm2). The present study has tested the hypothesis that Mdm2 inhibits the p53 response in normally growing cells by binding to chromatin-associated p53. Using chromatin immunoprecipitation, we show that Mdm2 local...
MDM2 is a ubiquitin ligase that is best known for its essential function in the negative regulation of p53. In addition, MDM2 expression is associated with tumor progression in a number of common cancers, and in some cases, this has been shown to be independent of p53 status. MDM2 has been shown to promote the degradation of a number of other proteins involved in the regulation of normal cell g...
Murine double minute 2 (MDM2) inhibits p53-mediated functions, which are essential for therapies using DNA-damaging agents. The purpose of this study was to determine whether MDM2 inhibition enhances the radiosensitivity of a lung cancer model. The effects of MDM2 inhibition on tumor vasculature were also studied. Transient transfection of H460 lung cancer cells and human umbilical vascular end...
Overexpression of MDM2 has been related to oncogenesis. In this communication, we present evidence to show that MDM2 controls the cell cycle-dependent expression of cyclin A by using a pathway that ensures its timely expression. MDM2 does not inhibit cyclin D or E expression. Silencing of endogenous MDM2 expression elevates cyclin A expression. The p53-binding domain of MDM2 harbors a SWIB regi...
The p53 inhibitor murine double-minute gene 2 (Mdm2) is a target for potential cancer therapies, however increased p53 function can be lethal. To directly address whether reduced Mdm2 function can inhibit tumorigenesis without causing detrimental side effects, we exploited a hypomorphic murine allele of mdm2 to compare the effects of decreased levels of Mdm2 and hence increased p53 activity on ...
