ß5 Integrin in SUDHL-1 Cells Derived from Anaplastic Large-Cell Lymphoma1
Human Gene Therapy Research Institute [F. T., P. S., J. L.], John Stoddard Cancer Center, Iowa Methodist Medical Center, and VA Central Iowa Health Care System, Des Moines, IA [F. T.]
Adenoviral
vector-mediated p53 expression induced apoptosis is a well established
gene therapy approach that has been evaluated extensively in epithelial
tumors but only recently in lymphoid malignancies mainly due to the
known resistance of the lymphoid lineage to adenovirus infection.
Recently, it was shown that this resistance is not absolute and that
cell lines derived from anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) and some
other lymphoid malignancies are efficiently transduced by adenoviral
vectors. Normal circulating T lymphocytes do not express
coxsackie-adenovirus receptor (CAR) and 
ß integrins
and are relatively resistant to infection by adenovirus. These
molecules serve as receptors for adenovirus entry into the cells.
ALCL-derived SUDHL-1 cells were evaluated for transduction efficiency
and expression of p53 after infection with an adenoviral vector
containing wild-type p53 (AdWTp53). Cells derived from ALCL and
circulating mononucleated cells (MNCs) were also evaluated for
expression of CAR and 
ß integrins. AdWTp53-mediated
expression of p53 resulted in p21/WAF1 induction, G1
arrest, and apoptosis in SUDHL-1 cells. The expression of CAR and

ß5 integrin was high in SUDHL-1 cells
and comparable to levels observed with epithelial tumor cells, but it
was absent in MNCs. The susceptibility to adenoviral vector
transduction of the tumor-derived cells implies an important biological
difference between them and circulating MNCs, possibly underlying the
malignant transformation that ALCL cells undergo. Further studies will
be required to evaluate this initial observation in more cell lines and
tissue derived from ALCL.
