Abstrakt: | The protein product of the cyclin D1 oncogene functions by activating partner cyclin-dependent kinases (cdk)4 or cdk6 to phosphorylate, thereby inactivating, the retinoblastoma protein pRB. Nonclassical, cdk-independent, functions of cyclin D1 have been described but their role in cyclin D1-driven neoplasia, with attendant implications for recently approved cdk4/6 chemotherapeutic inhibitors, requires further examination. We investigated whether cyclin D1's role in parathyroid tumorigenesis in vivo is effected primarily through kinase-dependent or kinase-independent mechanisms. Using a mouse model of cyclin D1-driven parathyroid tumorigenesis (PTH-D1), we generated new transgenic lines harboring a mutant cyclin D1 (KE) that is unable to activate its partner kinases. While this kinase-dead KE mutant effectively drove mammary tumorigenesis in an analogous model, parathyroid-overexpressed cyclin D1 KE mice did not develop the characteristic biochemical hyperparathyroidism or parathyroid hypercellularity of PTH-D1 mice. These results strongly suggest that in parathyroid cells, cyclin D1 drives tumorigenesis predominantly through cdk-dependent mechanisms, in marked contrast with the cdk-independence of cyclin D1-driven mouse mammary cancer. These findings highlight crucial tissue-specific mechanistic differences in cyclin D1-driven tumorigenesis, suggest that parathyroid/endocrine cells may be more tumorigenically vulnerable to acquired genetic perturbations in cdk-mediated proliferative control than other tissues, and carry important considerations for therapeutic intervention.
