Effect of FOS and JUN expression in inmortalized human mesenchymal progenitor cells


ABSTRACT: Mesenchymal progenitor cells (MPCs) have been proposed as cells of origin for sarcomas, while c-Fos and c-Jun transcription factors have been proposed has a oncogenes in sarcoma tumors. Here we study the effects of the induction of c-fos or c-Jun expression in immortalized hMPCs. C-Fos expression in these cells not only generated modifications in cell cycle, but also morphological changes, reduced mobility capacity and impaired adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation potentials. Even more interesting, c-Fos expressing immortalized hMPCs generated tumors with chondrogenic phenotype when implanted in immunodeficient mice. In accordance with these results, c-Fos is expressed at protein level in many human bone tumors, specifically in chondrosarcomas (76% c-fos positive samples) and osteosarcomas (49% c-fos positive samples). c-Jun expression in immortalized hMPCs induces increased proliferation and cell transformation and, once implanted in immunodeficient mice, these cells generate fibroblastic osteosarcomas. Doble c-jun and c-fos expression in immortalized hMPCs also induces cell transformation and yields high grade pleomorphic osteosarcoma tumors when implanted in immunodeficient mice.
