Abstract

Summary: The TP 53 (p53) pathway can be inhibited by TP 53 mutation or deletion or by MDM 2 overexpression. Both occur in B urkitt lymphoma (BL), but many cases lack either abnormality. Expression patterns of the TP 53 inhibitor MDM 4 have not been reported in BL, and increased MDM 4 could deregulate the TP 53 pathway in cases without TP 53 or MDM 2 abnormalities. We investigated TP 53 pathway disruption in paediatric BL patient samples (n = 30) by studying MDM 4, MDM 2, and CDKN 1 A (p21) protein and m RNA expression; TP 53 mutations; TP 53 protein expression; and gene copy number abnormalities. MDM 4 protein was expressed in 30/30 tumours, and MDM 2 protein was weakly expressed in 7/30 (23%). All cases were negative for CDKN 1 A protein, and CDKN 1 A m RNA levels were decreased. TP 53 mutations were detected in 5/28 (18%) cases and confirmed by sequencing. TP 53 protein was expressed in 15/30 (50%) cases, including 7/8 with TP 53 genetic alterations. MDM 2 protein and m RNA expression levels did not correlate with lack of TP 53 genetic changes or TP 53 protein expression; however, there was an inverse relationship between detectable TP 53 protein expression and MDM 4 copy number gains and m RNA expression. The TP 53 pathway is deregulated in paediatric BL cases, and increased MDM 4 expression may be the primary mechanism in some cases.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
