Introduction
![Page 3: CONDITIONAL KNOCKOUT OF P53 IN MESENCHYMAL CELLS OF MICE RESULTS IN OSTEOSARCOMAS](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042703/5681369c550346895d9e3d1b/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
P53
• Tumor suppressor gene– Most commonly mutated tumor suppressor – Approximately 50% of all cancers
• Guardian of the genome– Activated in response to DNA damage– Cell cycle arrest– Apoptosis

Li-Fraumeni SyndromeGerm-Line P53 Mutation
Hisada, JNCI 90:606, 1998
![Page 5: CONDITIONAL KNOCKOUT OF P53 IN MESENCHYMAL CELLS OF MICE RESULTS IN OSTEOSARCOMAS](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042703/5681369c550346895d9e3d1b/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
P53 Knockout Mice
• Developed in early 1990s
• Mice exhibit a wide spectrum of tumors
• Problem – Homozygous knockout die of lymphomas rapidly
• Within 6 months
• Relatively few sarcomas
– Heterozygous knockout produces sarcomas slowly• Usually about 18 months

Rb
• Another important tumor suppressor gene
• Involved in cell cycle control
![Page 8: CONDITIONAL KNOCKOUT OF P53 IN MESENCHYMAL CELLS OF MICE RESULTS IN OSTEOSARCOMAS](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042703/5681369c550346895d9e3d1b/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Hereditary RetinoblastomaGermline Mutation of Rb
• Osteosarcoma 2nd most common malignancy
• Rb - mutations found in sporadic osteosarcomas also
![Page 9: CONDITIONAL KNOCKOUT OF P53 IN MESENCHYMAL CELLS OF MICE RESULTS IN OSTEOSARCOMAS](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042703/5681369c550346895d9e3d1b/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Rb Knockout Mice
• Homozygous mice are embryonic lethal
• Heterozygous mice only develop pituitary tumors– No osteosarcomas or other sarcomas
![Page 10: CONDITIONAL KNOCKOUT OF P53 IN MESENCHYMAL CELLS OF MICE RESULTS IN OSTEOSARCOMAS](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042703/5681369c550346895d9e3d1b/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Goal of This Study
• Develop genetic mouse model of sarcomas– Effect of specific mutations on tumor phenotype
• Tumor suppressor genes
![Page 11: CONDITIONAL KNOCKOUT OF P53 IN MESENCHYMAL CELLS OF MICE RESULTS IN OSTEOSARCOMAS](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042703/5681369c550346895d9e3d1b/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Strategy
• Conditional knockout of tumor suppressor genes – Early knockout
• Less differentiated cells more likely to give rise to tumors
– Only in mesenchymal tissue • Bone, cartilage, muscle, connective tissue
![Page 12: CONDITIONAL KNOCKOUT OF P53 IN MESENCHYMAL CELLS OF MICE RESULTS IN OSTEOSARCOMAS](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042703/5681369c550346895d9e3d1b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Cre-Lox Recombination
• Cre recombinase– Transgenic mouse expresses Cre under the control of a specific
promoter
• LoxP sites– Short 34 bp sequence recognized by Cre
– Introduce into mouse genome around targeted gene

Preliminary Study
• Establishes framework for future studies
• Larger numbers of mice needed to corroborate initial findings here
![Page 37: CONDITIONAL KNOCKOUT OF P53 IN MESENCHYMAL CELLS OF MICE RESULTS IN OSTEOSARCOMAS](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042703/5681369c550346895d9e3d1b/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Mice Tend to Make Osteosarcomas
• Distribution of tumors is not random– Histology - osteosarcomas– Location - femur – Not predicted
• Prx1-cre knock outs p53 in the limb bud• All mesenchymal tissues in limb should have equal chance of tumor
formation
• There must be strong genetic & developmental influences that favors osteosarcoma in femur
![Page 38: CONDITIONAL KNOCKOUT OF P53 IN MESENCHYMAL CELLS OF MICE RESULTS IN OSTEOSARCOMAS](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042703/5681369c550346895d9e3d1b/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
P53 Conditional Knockout
• Good strategy to create sarcomas– Eliminate nearly all other tumors
• Occasional lymphoma of bone occurs
– Confirms hypothesis that mice bearing homozygous deletion of p53 will almost always develop sarcomas
• P53 mutation is an initiating event for sarcomas– Represents one important pathway for sarcoma formation
– This is generally not believed to be true for carcinomas
![Page 39: CONDITIONAL KNOCKOUT OF P53 IN MESENCHYMAL CELLS OF MICE RESULTS IN OSTEOSARCOMAS](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042703/5681369c550346895d9e3d1b/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Rb Conditional Knockout
• No developmental defects (surprisingly)– Note global Rb knockout is lethal in embryoes
• Poor initiator of sarcoma formation in mice– No tumors with Rb knockout alone
• Accelerates sarcoma formation– Double knockout of p53 & Rb produces sarcomas
more rapidly
![Page 40: CONDITIONAL KNOCKOUT OF P53 IN MESENCHYMAL CELLS OF MICE RESULTS IN OSTEOSARCOMAS](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042703/5681369c550346895d9e3d1b/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Conclusions
• Conditional knockout of p53 produces sarcomas – Majority are osteoblastic osteosarcomas of femur– Poorly differentiated soft tissue sarcomas also form
• Conditional knockout of Rb accelerates sarcoma formation– Does not initiate sarcoma formation in mice
