RESUMO

The chromosomal region 12q13-15 is recurrently amplified in osteosarcoma (OS), but its importance in bone tumor development remains unknown. Although there are two major candidate genes (MDM2, a TP53 downregulator, and CDK4, involved in cell cycle progression) considered to be the driving genes in this region, the size of the amplicon and number of genes involved have not been determined. In this study, we used 130 classical OS and 15 parosteal OS to determine MDM2 and CDK4 amplification frequency in OS. Tumors in which these genes were amplified were used to map the 12q13-15 amplified region and to determine its correlation with clinical prognosis. The 12q13-15 amplification was more prevalent in parosteal OS (67% of cases) than in high-grade classical OS (12%). Quantitative real-time PCR of MDM2, CDK4, and 25 other genes showed that this region contains two different amplicons: one at 12q15 centered on MDM2 and one at 12q13-14 centered on CDK4. Both regions were frequently co-amplified in both types of OS, and MDM2 and CDK4 amplification was correlated with higher expression levels for both genes. Univariate and multivariate analyses of clinical data indicated that classical OS patients whose tumors exhibited MDM2 amplification were more likely to be older at diagnosis (median age 32.6 vs. 17.8 years) and female (66.7 vs. 33.3%) than those without gene amplification. There was no association with other clinical parameters. In conclusion, co-amplification of MDM2 and CDK4 in two separate amplicons occurs frequently in parosteal OS and less so in classical high-grade OS.
