Abstract

Although benign, uterine leiomyomas occur with high frequency and significant morbidity in reproductive-age women, and they present a significant health problem. Leiomyomas develop in the uterine myometrium and are sensitive to ovarian hormones, making them potential target sites for endocrine disruptors. Here we utilize cell lines derived from rat uterine leiomyomas to determine if a panel of 7 organochlorine pesticides have potential agonist activity in myometrial cells using cellular and molecular in vitro assays. The organochlorine pesticides investigated have been previously characterized as having agonist activity in other hormonally responsive tissues, but their effects have not been studied in uterine myometrial cells. In Eker rat leiomyoma-derived cells, HPTE, kepone, and the α isomer of endosulfan stimulated proliferation, an effect dampened by the antiestrogen ICI 182,780. In addition, these compounds stimulated transcription of the vitellogenin estrogen-response element via the ER in a transcriptional reporter gene assay and induced the expression of an endogenous estrogen-responsive gene, the progesterone receptor (PR). This contrasted with the agonist profile of methoxychlor, dieldrin, toxaphene, and endosulfan-β. These compounds, unable to stimulate proliferation of uterine leiomyoma cells, did exhibit agonistic activity in these cells at the transcriptional level in the estrogen-sensitive reporter gene assay, and they were also able to upregulate PR message. These data demonstrate that organochlorine pesticides act as estrogen receptor agonists in Eker rat uterine myometrial cells, and they indicate a need for further investigation of the potential tissue-specific agonist activity of these pesticides and their role in the pathogenesis of uterine leiomyoma.

153. An in vivoin vitroModel to Assess Endocrine Disrupting Activity of Xenoestrogens in Uterine Leiomyoma

Author

HODGES, LESLIE C., HUNTER, DEBORAH S., BERGERSON, JILL S., FUCHS-YOUNG, ROBIN, and WALKER, CHERYL L.

Abstract

Xenoestrogens with endocrine disrupting activity have been associated with the dysregulation of reproductive function and promotion of malignancies in experimental animals and human populations. The high incidence of uterine leiomyomas, a benign estrogen-responsive neoplasm of the uterine myometrium, calls into question the potential influence of xenoestrogens in the pathogenesis of these tumors. An in vivoin vitroanimal model, the Eker rat, that can be used to assess the estrogen-like agonist activity of potential endocrine disruptors in the uterine myometrium is discussed. Using this model, several in vitroassays are developed that demonstrate that compounds from three major classes of xenoestrogens can mimic the effect of estrogen on leiomyoma cells and act as estrogen receptor (ER) agonists: phytoestrogens, organochlorine pesticides and pharmacologic agents. These compounds can stimulate transcription via the ER and upregulate the expression of an estrogen-responsive gene in uterine leiomyoma cells. The use of these in vitroassays has also advanced our ability to predict the agonist activity of potential therapeutic agents in the uterine myometrium. Selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs), while able to act as agonists in some tissues such as the bone and uterine endometrium, act as antagonists in vivoin the uterine myometrium and in our in vitroassays. This antagonist activity in the uterine myometrium suggests that SERMs may be useful in the treatment of uterine leiomyoma.

154. Genetic variants of the tuberous sclerosis 2 tumour suppressor gene in mouse <e1>t</e1> haplotypes

Author

*, ELENA V. KLEYMENOVA, ‡, DECLUE, JEFFREY E., and WALKER, CHERYL L.

Abstract

The murine t complex on chromosome 17 contains a number of homozygous lethal and semi-lethal mutations that disrupt development of the mouse embryo. We recently characterized an embryonic lethality in the rat that results from a germ-line mutation in the tuberous sclerosis 2 (Tsc-2) tumour suppressor gene (the Eker mutation). Remarkably, mouse embryos homozygous for tw8 mutation display cranial defects reminiscent of those observed in rat embryos homozygous for the Eker mutation. To determine whether the Tsc-2 gene, which is in the t complex, is mutated in tw8 or other t haplotypes, we characterized this gene in a series of t haplotype mice. Four Tsc-2 polymorphisms were identified: three in the coding region and one intronic that appeared to be common to all t haplotypes analysed. No evidence was found to argue that the Tsc-2 gene is altered in tw8 haplotype mice. However, in the tw5 haplotype we found a G to T mutation in Tsc-2 that was present only in this t haplotype. In contrast to other polymorphisms within the Tsc-2 coding region which did not result in amino acid changes in Tsc-2 gene product tuberin, this mutation substituted a phenylalanine for a conserved cysteine in tw5 tuberin. Within the t complex, the Tsc-2 gene and the putative tw5 locus appeared to map to different positions, complicating identification of Tsc-2 as a candidate for the tw5 locus and suggesting that the G to T mutation in the Tsc-2 gene may have arisen independently of the tw5 functional mutation.
