Ramkissoon, MD, PhD1,6; and Julia A. Elvin, MD, PhD1 abstract PURPOSE Leiomyosarcoma (LMS) harbors frequent mutations in TP53 and RB1 but few actionable genomic alterations. Here, we searched for recurrent actionable genomic alterations in LMS that occur in the absence of common untreatable oncogenic drivers. METHODS Tissues from 276,645 unique advanced cancers, including 2,570 uterine and soft tissue LMS, were sequenced by hybrid-capture–based next-generation DNA and RNA sequencing/comprehensive genomic profiling of up to 406 genes. We characterized clinicopathologic features of relevant patient cases. RESULTS Overall, 77 LMS exhibited homozygous copy loss of CDKN2C at chromosome 1p32.3 (3.0% of LMS). Genomic alterations (GAs) in TP53, RB1, and ATRX were rare compared with the remainder of the LMS cohort (11.7% v 73.4%, 0% v 54.5%, 2.6% v 24.5%, respectively; all P , .0001). CDKN2C-null LMS patient cases were significantly enriched for GAs in CIC (40.3% v 1.4%) at 19q13.2, CDKN2A (46.8% v 7.0%), and RAD51B (16.9% v 1.7%; all P , .0001).

As such, this review will provide a brief history of the treatment options. Homozygous deletion of the p16 / INK4c p14ARF/p15INK4b locus is among the most common genetic discovery of p18 , summarize the studies that link it to cancers in mice and humans, and provide a forward-looking alterations in GBM. Two recent studies have shown that INK4c deletion and mutation of another INK4 family member, assessment of the role of p18 inactivation in the pathogenesis p18INK4c, also drives the pathogenesis of GBM. This minireview of GBM (Fig. 1). INK4c will discuss the known roles for p18 in the initiation and INK4c progression of cancer and suggest opportunities for future Discovery of p18 studies. [Cancer Res 2008;68(21):8657–60] The human p18INK4c gene was initially discovered in 1994 by Guan and colleagues (8) in a yeast two-hybrid screen to identify Introduction proteins that interacted with human cdk6. The mouse homologue was reported the following year by Hirai and colleagues (9).

Ross,2 Selina Chen-Kiang,3 Faith E. Davies,1and Gareth J. Morgan1 Abstract Purpose: Deletions of chromosome 1have been described in 7% to 40% of cases of myeloma with inconsistent clinical consequences. CDKN2C at 1p32.3 has been identified in myeloma cell lines as the potential target of the deletion.We tested the clinical impact of 1p deletion and used high-resolution techniques to define the role of CDKN2C in primary patient material. Experimental Design: We analyzed 515 cases of monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS), smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM), and newly diagnosed multiple mye- loma using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) for deletions of CDKN2C.In78myeloma cases, we carried out Affymetrix single nucleotide polymorphism mapping and U133 Plus 2.0 ex- pression arrays. In addition, we did mutation, methylation, andWestern blotting analysis. Results: By FISH we identified deletion of 1p32.3 (CDKN2C)in3of66MGUS(4.5%),4of39 SMM (10.3%), and 55 of 369 multiple myeloma cases (15%).We examined the impact of copy number change at CDKN2C on overall survival (OS), and found that the cases with either hemi- zygous or homozygous deletion of CDKN2C had a worse OS compared with cases that were intact at this region (22 months versus 38 months; P = 0.003). Using gene mapping we identified three homozygous deletions at 1p32.3, containing CDKN2C,allofwhichlackedexpressionof CDKN2C.

Simple Summary: Altered regulation of the cell cycle is a hallmark of cancer. The recent clinical success of the inhibitors of CDK4 and CDK6 has convincingly demonstrated that targeting cell cycle components may represent an effective anti-cancer strategy, at least in some cancer types. However, possible applications of CDK4/6 inhibitors in patients with ovarian cancer is still under evaluation.

  • The Role of Cdks and Cdkis in Murine Development
    International Journal of Molecular Sciences Review The Role of CDKs and CDKIs in Murine Development Grace Jean Campbell , Emma Langdale Hands and Mathew Van de Pette * Epigenetic Mechanisms of Toxicology Lab, MRC Toxicology Unit, Cambridge University, Cambridge CB2 1QR, UK; [email protected] (G.J.C.); [email protected] (E.L.H.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 8 July 2020; Accepted: 26 July 2020; Published: 28 July 2020 Abstract: Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) and their inhibitors (CDKIs) play pivotal roles in the regulation of the cell cycle. As a result of these functions, it may be extrapolated that they are essential for appropriate embryonic development. The twenty known mouse CDKs and eight CDKIs have been studied to varying degrees in the developing mouse, but only a handful of CDKs and a single CDKI have been shown to be absolutely required for murine embryonic development. What has become apparent, as more studies have shone light on these family members, is that in addition to their primary functional role in regulating the cell cycle, many of these genes are also controlling specific cell fates by directing differentiation in various tissues. Here we review the extensive mouse models that have been generated to study the functions of CDKs and CDKIs, and discuss their varying roles in murine embryonic development, with a particular focus on the brain, pancreas and fertility. Keywords: cyclin-dependent kinase; CDK inhibitors; mouse; development; knock-out models 1. Introduction Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are proteins that, by definition, require the binding of partner cyclin proteins in order to phosphorylate a series of target proteins.

MEN1 is characterized by primary f MEN1 hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) and functional or nonfunctional pancreatic neuroendocrine f neuroendocrine tumors tumors and pituitary adenomas. Approximately 10% of patients with familial or sporadic f CDKN1B MEN1-like phenotype do not have MEN1 mutations or deletions. A novel MEN syndrome f p27 was discovered, initially in rats (MENX), and later in humans (MEN4), which is caused by germline mutations in the putative tumor suppressor CDKN1B. The most common phenotype of the 19 established cases of MEN4 that have been described to date is PHPT Endocrine-Related Cancer Endocrine-Related followed by pituitary adenomas. Recently, somatic or germline mutations in CDKN1B were also identified in patients with sporadic PHPT, small intestinal neuroendocrine tumors, lymphoma and breast cancer, demonstrating a novel role for CDKN1B as a tumor susceptibility gene for other neoplasms.

  • Mutations in CDKN2C (P18) and CDKN2D (P19) May Cause Sporadic Parathyroid Adenoma
    T Gluick et al. CDKI in parathyroid adenoma 20:6 L27–L29 Research Letter Mutations in CDKN2C (p18) and CDKN2D (p19) may cause sporadic parathyroid adenoma Dear Editor Hyperparathyroidism (HPT) can arise from germline 2008, van Veelen et al. 2009). CDKN2D encodes p19, mutation of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 which is closely related to p18 but not previously (MEN1), CASR,orHRPT (HRPT1; Marx 2011). Recent considered as a tumor suppressor. studies also suggested that germline mutation of several One parathyroid tumor showed a deletion in the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors (CDKIs) is an uncom- p18 gene and one showed an insertion in p18; mon cause of HPT (Pellegata et al. 2006, Agarwal et al. neither change was found in the patient’s germline. 2009). A gene that predisposes to tumor via germline In the first (p18F71Ter), a 25-nucleotide deletion mutation may also predispose to similar tumor by somatic at c.1427_1454del causes a stop codon at Phe 71. In mutation; in fact, the MEN1 gene is mutated in about 30% the second (p18V118fs*6), a two-nucleotide insertion of sporadic parathyroid tumors (Marx 2011). Screening a c.1567_1568insGG causes a frameshift, followed by small number of sporadic parathyroid tumors by others, new sequence GWSSWWstop, also predicting a shortened using whole exome sequencing analysis, did not show protein. The chromatograms in Fig. 1AandBshow any CDKI gene mutation (Cromer et al. 2012, Newey et al. overlapping WT and mutant sequences, indicating hetero- 2012). In a recent study, all seven CDKI genes were zygosity or normal admixture. Western blots show stable sequenced in 81 sporadic parathyroid adenomas.
