MDM2 is a key regulator of the p53 tumor suppressor acting primarily as an E3 ubiquitin ligase to promote its degradation. MDM2 also inhibits p53 transcriptional activity by recruiting histone deacetylase and corepressors to p53. Here, we show that immunopurified MDM2 complexes have significant histone H3-K9 methyltransferase activity. The histone methyltransferases SUV39H1 and EHMT1 bind speci...
PURPOSE MDM2 is a major negative regulator of p53, and a single nucleotide polymorphism in the MDM2 promoter region SNP309 (rs2279744) has been shown to increase the affinity of the transcriptional activator Sp1, resulting in elevated MDM2 transcription and expression in some cancers. There is currently no information about the role of MDM2 polymorphism in renal cell carcinoma (RCC). We investi...
Serdemetan (JNJ-26854165), an antagonist to Mdm2, was anticipated to promote the activation of p53. While regulation of p53 by Mdm2 is important, Mdm2 also regulates numerous proteins involved in diverse cellular functions. We investigated if Serdemetan would alter the Mdm2-HIF1α axis and affect cell survival in human glioblastoma cells independently of p53. Treatment of cells with Serdemetan u...
pRB activates transcription by a poorly understood mechanism that involves relieving negative regulation of the promoter specificity factor Sp1. We show here that MDM2 inhibits Sp1-mediated transcription, that MDM2 binds directly to Sp1 in vitro as well as in vivo, and that MDM2 inhibits the DNA-binding activity of Sp1. Forced expression of pRB relieves MDM2-mediated repression, and interaction...
BACKGROUND The MDM2 oncogene functions as a negative feedback regulator of the p53 tumor suppressor. Abnormal expression of MDM2 in tumors may attenuate the p53-mediated growth arrest and apoptosis response, resulting in increased cell proliferation and resistance to chemotherapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS We have developed phosphorothioate antisense oligodeoxynucleotides optimized for inhibition...
The ubiquitin-specific protease USP7 stabilizes both Mdm2 and p53 by removing ubiquitins, hence playing an important enzymatic role in the p53-Mdm2 pathway. However, it is poorly understood how USP7 executes its dual-stabilization effect on Mdm2 and p53 in cellular context. Here, we report that STIP is a novel macromolecular scaffold that links USP7 to the p53-Mdm2 pathway. STIP and a fraction ...
Purpose. Amplification of genetic sequences on chromosome 12q13 is frequently found in soft tissue tumours. However, for the MDM2 gene, over-expression of the MDM2 protein has not always been shown to accompany gene amplification, raising the possibility that amplification of genetic sequences targets alternative genes on chromosome 12q13 for over-expression. To investigate this discrepancy, we...
The MDM2-p53 pathway plays a prominent role in well-differentiated liposarcoma (LPS) pathogenesis. Here, we explore the importance of MDM2 amplification and p53 mutation in LPS independently, to determine whether HDACi are therapeutically useful in LPS. We demonstrated that simultaneous knockdown of MDM2 and p53 in p53-mutant LPS lines resulted in increased apoptosis, anti-proliferative effects...
A single nucleotide polymorphism (T to G) in the mdm2 P2 promoter, mdm2 SNP309, leads to MDM2 overexpression promoting chemotherapy resistant cancers. Two mdm2 G/G SNP309 cancer cell lines, MANCA and A875, have compromised wild-type p53 that co-localizes with MDM2 on chromatin. We hypothesized that MDM2 in these cells inhibited transcription initiation at the p53 target genes p21 and puma. Surp...
The P53 tumor suppressor pathway plays an important role in cancer development. The auto-regulatory feedback mechanism of the P53 and MDM2 expression is critical in keeping proper tumor suppressor function of this pathway. This study examined the effect of P53 Arg72Pro variants on transactivation of polymorphic MDM2 promoter (T309G) and their associations with risk of developing gastric cardia ...
