Abstract:
:We have screened 57 cases of primary, nonfunctional, pituitary adenomas for loss of heterozygosity of markers on chromosome 9p. Using a panel of 11 microsatellite markers, we found hemizygous deletion with at least one of the markers in 18 tumors (31.5%). The frequency of loss was similar in both noninvasive (8 of 26; 31%) and invasive tumors (10 of 31; 32%), suggesting that loss on this chromosome might be an early event in pituitary tumorigenesis. Two discrete areas of loss were punctuated by a region of retention of heterozygosity between the markers D9S171 and IFNA, indicative of homozygous deletion. However, multiplex PCR analysis (MTS1 and MTS2) and the presence of a 3' untranslated region polymorphism in MTS1 suggested that neither of these tumor suppressor genes was homozygously deleted. In 6 of the 18 tumors showing LOH, sufficient DNA was also available for Southern blot analysis and, in all cases, showed retention of MTS1. Cell mixing experiments of tumor cell DNA homozygously deleted for MTS1 with DNA in which neither copy of the gene was deleted only gave rise to a signal at contamination levels greater than 30% and could discriminate homozygous and hemizygous loss. These studies support the recent findings that mechanisms other than hemi- and homozygous deletion are most likely responsible for the loss of MTS1 gene product in pituitary tumors (M. Woloschak et al., Cancer Res., 56: 2493-2486, 1996.). These data show that losses on either side of 9p21-22, both or either of which may be deleted, are involved in pituitary tumorigenesis and provide evidence for distinct suppressor gene loci, in addition to MTS1, on chromosome 9p.
