2 Tumorigeneze = onkogeneze = karcinogeneze = vznik a růst nádorů Nádor = abnormální populace se změněnou genetickou informací neletální poškození normální genetické informace  získané Chemické Fyzikální Viry  vrozené (germline)

3 Tumour monoclonal proliferation Clonal expansion Clonality testing 1. women heterozyg. for X-linked markers 2. specific translocations 3. gene rearrangements – B, T- cells Carcinogenesis: multistep process Základní hypotéza

4 Gene expression regulation in somatic body cells Specific Universal Regulation of gene expression

5 Základní třídy regulačních genů dělení, růst, diferenciace, smrt buňky I. Protoonkogeny „podporují růst“, mutantní alely dominantní II. Nádorové supresorové geny (antionkogeny) normálně brzdí proliferaci, tzv. recesivní onkogeny III. Geny regulující apoptózu dominantní nebo recesívní vliv mutantní alely IV. Geny regulující opravu DNA mismatch repair genes, recesívní vliv mutantní al.

6 I. Protoonkogeny → onkogeny alelické formy téhož strukturního genu Protoonkogeny - v normálních buňkách strukturní geny → translační produkty protoonkoproteiny: Normální role v regulaci: vedou k růstu, dělení a diferenciaci VERSUS onkoproteiny – v nádorových buňkách vedou k neregulovanému dělení abnormálně dlouhému přežívání → vznik nádoru

7 Fyziologická proliferace 1.Vazba: růstový faktor - specifický receptor na buněčné membráně 2.Přechodná aktivace receptoru růstového faktoru, aktivuje další proteiny na vnitřní straně membrány 3.Přenos signálu cytosolem do jádra - second messengers 4.Indukce a aktivace jaderných regulačních faktorů, které iniciují transkripci DNA 5.Zahájení a postup buňky buněčným cyklem (dělení)

8 I. Protoonkogeny kódují: A. Růstové faktory B. Receptory růstových faktorů C. Proteiny transdukující signály, nereceptorové proteinkinázy D. Transkripční proteiny v jádře E. Cykliny a cyklin-dependentní kinázy

9 I. A. Growth factors Normal: Stimulation of proliferation when increased = overexpression Carcinogenesis Autostimulation of tumour cells PDGF – protooncogene c-sis; Epidermal growth factor; Granulocyte macrophage stimulating factor

10 I. B. Growth factor receptors Transmembrane proteins Tyrosine kinase cytoplasmic domain Activation: transient (normal) versus persistent (tumour) Mechanisms  Hyperexpression of normal forms  Mutations  Gene rearrangements EGFR family: cerb B1, c-erbB2-Her2/neu RET

11 I. C. Signal transducing proteins biochemically heterogeneous Ras proteins = G proteins, bind GTP ras – GTP (act.) x GDP (inact.) ras: GTPase activity GTPase activating proteins (GAP) Mutated ras binds GAP but persistent activation (GTP), pathologic mitogenic influence ras mutation: the most frequent abnormality of dominant oncogenes in human tumors (20%)

12 Non-receptor protein kinases Tyrosine kinase activity protooncogene abl t(9;22)(q34;q11) - bcr-abl chronic myelogenous leukemia; a subset of acute lymphoblastic leukemia I. C. Other signal transducing proteins

13 Burkitt lymphoma t(8; 14)(q24;q32) c-myc, expression dysregulation nuclear transcription factor Chronic myelogenous leukemia Reciprocal balanced t(9; 22)(q34;q11) Bcr-abl 210 kDa fusion protein Tyrosine kinase activity

14 I. D. Nuclear transcription factors Myc, myb, jun, fos C-myc gene of immediate early phase of growth Regulation of cell growth and apoptosis Dysregulated expression: Burkitt lymphoma Amplification: carcinoma of the breast, colon, lung

15 Mechanisms of oncogene activation Change of the gene  structure abnormal protein  expression regulation abundant protein 1. Point mutations (ras) 2. Chromosomal lesions (transloc., inversion; hematology) 3. Gene amplification - double minutes - homogeneous staining regions

16 II. Tumour suppressor genes = brakes of cell proliferation, antioncogenes Gene Rb Gene P53, P73 BRCA, APC, NF-1, DCC, VHL, WT1
