タイトル PAX5 functions as a tumor suppressor by RB-E2F-mediated cell cycle arrest in Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus-infected primary effusion lymphoma.
ジャーナル Neoplasia
Abstract Primary effusion lymphoma (PEL) is a malignant B-cell lymphoma attributable to Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) infection. PEL is characterized by invasive behavior, showing recurrent effusions in body cavities. The clinical outcome and typical prognosis in patients with PEL are poor and potentially lethal. Clarification of the pathogenesis in PEL is urgently needed in order to develop novel therapies. PEL cells generally lack B-cell surface markers, and we therefore hypothesized that the B-cell transcription factor, PAX5, would be down-regulated in PEL. The expression of PAX5 is detected from the pro-B to the mature B-cell stage and is indispensable for the differentiation of B-cells. PAX5 was silenced in PEL cells via its promoter methylation. Up-regulation of PAX5 induced several genes coding for B-cell surface marker mRNA, but not protein level. PAX5 inhibited cell growth via G1 cell cycle arrest. PAX5 bound to RB and increased its protein expression. RB/E2F-regulated genes were significantly down-regulated in microarray analysis and PCR experiments. To elucidate the in vivo role of PAX5, we examined the restoration of PAX5 in a PEL mouse model. The ascites volume and organ invasions were significantly suppressed by PAX5 restoration. Reduction of PAX5 has played a crucial role in the oncogenesis of PEL, and PAX5 is a tumor suppressor in PEL. Targeting PAX5 could represent a novel therapeutic strategy for patients with PEL.
