AbstractThe wild-type tumor suppressor gene p53 is known as a transcription factor in activating or suppressing target genes that encode proteins in regulating genome stability, DNA damage, cell arrest, and apoptosis. However, the role of mutant p53 in the process of cell transformation is still unclear. Our recent work indicated that overexpression of mutant p53(val135) induced high incidence of spontaneous transformation in prolonged cultures of Rat 6 fibroblasts. In order to identify genes related to neoplastic transformation induced by the mutant p53, the p53(val135)-overexpressor R6 13-8 and its derived spontaneously transformed cell line T2 were analyzed by mRNA differential display. In a systematic screening with 80 primer sets of RT-PCR reactions, three genes were found to be differentially expressed between R6 13-8 and T2 cells. Two genes, identified as homologues of the growth factor inducible immediate-early gene Cyr61 and the human nonmuscle myosin heavy chain-B, were down-regulated in T2 cells. Interestingly, both genes were also suppressed in Rat 6 cells transformed by c-H-ras and v-myc, but not by v-src genes. The third gene is a homologue of the frizzled related protein, a gene family that acts, in some cases, as an antagonist to the Wnt signaling pathway. It is intriguing that the rat homologue of the frizzled related protein was only expressed in p53(val135)-overexpressing cells, but not in the parental Rat 6 cells. However, the same gene was also highly expressed in ras-transformed Rat 6 cells, and moderately expressed in v-src-transformed Rat 6 cells. This is the first study in which the association of mutant p53 to these three genes is revealed. Our current report may provide new clues to the role of mutant p53 in the process of cell transformation.
