Abstract:
:Human T-cell leukemia/lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I) infection causes a variety of human diseases, including adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma. The viral transactivator Tax has been implicated as a key factor in the HTLV-I-induced transformation pathway. To investigate the components of this pathway, we derived fibroblast-like cell lines, designated T6 and T9, from tail biopsies of tax-transgenic C57BL/6 mice that do not develop tumors. Phenotypic characterization of T6 and T9 cells and T6-derived subclones revealed that they differ in their abilities to form foci in vitro and tumors in vivo. The observed differences in the levels of Tax expression did not correlate with their degree of neoplastic potential. However, a control cell line derived from a nontransgenic C57BL/6 mouse did not form foci in vitro or tumors in vivo, indicating that Tax was required for the transformation process. Results of Northern analyses showed that the T9 cells and the highly malignant derivatives of T6 cells expressed elevated levels of c-myc mRNA. These findings suggest that progression of the tax-transgenic cells toward a more malignant phenotype might involve c-myc deregulation.
