Altered expression and molecular abnormalities of cell-cycle-regulatory proteins in rhabdomyosarcoma.
Rhabdomyosarcoma is the most commonly occurring soft-tissue sarcoma in children. Some reports have discussed the altered expression and molecular abnormalities of cell-cycle-regulatory proteins in rhabdomyosarcoma; however, variable frequencies of occurrence have been noted. In the current study, among 72 cases of rhabdomyosarcoma, the authors evaluated for the expression of p53, MDM2, p16, p21/WAF1, p27, cyclin D1, cyclin E, pRb and E2F-1 protein immunohistochemically and assessed for proliferative activities using MIB-1. We also analyzed the mutation of the p53 gene in 45 cases, the amplification of the MDM2 gene in 18 cases and the mutation of the H-ras gene in 29 cases, using formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded materials. Furthermore, we assessed the correlation between clinicopathologic factors and the results of both immunohistochemical and molecular analyses. Alveolar type affected older patients, and it had a significantly higher mitotic rate compared with the embryonal type (P=0.0226). p53 overexpression was detected in 22 (30.6%) of 72 cases, and 10 (22.2%) of 45 cases had p53 gene abnormalities. As for MDM2, its overexpression was found in nine (12.5%) of 72 cases, and three (16.7%) of 18 cases showed MDM2 amplification. A statistically significant association was observed between immunoreaction for MDM2 and p53 overexpression (P=0.0002), and p53 and MDM2 overexpression was significantly correlated with high MIB-1 labeling indices. E2F-1 labeling indices showed a significantly higher score in alveolar type compared with that seen in embryonal type (P=0.0334), but MIB-1 did not. In conclusion, our study suggests that p53 overexpression may be related to tumor progression because tumors with p53 overexpression have a high proliferative activity in the current study. Alveolar type had a significantly higher both mitotic rate and E2F-1 labeling indices when compared with the embryonal type. The current study is the first report of the correlation of E2F-1 with alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma.

Cell division cycle control in embryonal and alveolar rhabdomyosarcomas.
In this study, we investigated the mRNA level of several genes involved in cell cycle regulation in alveolar (ARMS) and embryonal rhabdomyosarcomas (ERMS). p21(Cip1), Cyclin D1, Cyclin D2, Cyclin D3, CDK2, and CDK4 were evaluated by RT-PCR. All (13 out of 13) ERMS expressed the p21(Cip1) gene compared with only 40% (4 out of 10) of the ARMS. Moreover, the amount of p21(Cip1) mRNA was noticeably higher in the ERMS samples than in the positive ARMS specimens. p27(Kip1) protein were analysed by immunohistochemical and immunoblotting. A noticeable difference was observed, in that ERMS had higher amounts of the cell cycle inhibitor compared with the ARMS. Finally, treatment of two rhabdomyosarcoma cell lines, RH-30 and RD, with butyrate, resulted in complete growth inhibition and in the upregulation of the p21(Cip1) and p27(Kip1) levels. Our results demonstrate that ERMS have a much higher level of p27(Kip1) and p21(Cip1) than the alveolar types, explaining, at least in part, the distinct features and outcomes (i.e. a poor prognosis of the alveolar type) of the two forms of this childhood solid cancer. Moreover, the data on butyrate-treated cell lines suggest that the two genes are potential novel therapeutic targets for the treatment of rhabdomyosarcomas.
