Popis: | Mitotic arrest–deficient protein 1 (MAD1) is a component of the mitotic spindle assembly checkpoint. We have created a knockout mouse model to examine the physiologic consequence of reduced MAD1 function. Mad1+/− mice were successfully generated, but repeated paired mating of Mad1+/− with Mad1+/− mice failed to produce a single Mad1−/− animal, suggesting that the latter genotype is embryonic lethal. In aging studies conducted for >18 months, Mad1+/− mice compared with control wild-type (wt) littermates showed a 2-fold higher incidence of constitutive tumors. Moreover, 42% of Mad1+/− (P < 0.03), but 0% of wt, mice developed neoplasia after treatment with vincristine, a microtubule depolymerization agent. Mad1+/− mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEF) were found to be more prone than wt cells to become aneuploid; Mad1+/−, but not wt, MEFs produced fibrosarcomas when explanted into nude mice. Our results indicate an essential MAD1 function in mouse development and correlate Mad1 haploinsufficiency with increased constitutive tumors. [Cancer Res 2007;67(1):160–6] |
