The t(4;14) translocation occurs frequently in multiple myeloma
(MM) and results in the simultaneous dysregulated expression of 2 potential oncogenes, FGFR3 (fibroblast growth factor receptor 3) from
der(14) and multiple myeloma SET domain protein/Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome candidate gene 1 from der(4). It is now shown that myeloma cells carrying a t(4;14) translocation express a functional FGFR3 that
in some cases is constitutively activated by the same mutations that
cause thanatophoric dysplasia. As with activating mutations of
K-ras and N-ras, which are reported in
approximately 40% of patients with MM, activating mutations of
FGFR3 occur during tumor progression. However, the
constitutive activation of ras and FGFR3 does
not occur in the same myeloma cells. Thus the activated forms of these
proteins appear to share an overlapping role in tumor progression,
suggesting that they also share the signaling cascade. Consistent with
this prediction, it is shown that activated FGFR3 when expressed at levels similar to those seen in t(4;14) myeloma is an
oncogene that acts through the MAP kinase pathway to transform NIH 3T3
cells, which can then generate tumors in nude mice. Thus, FGFR3, when overexpressed in MM, may be not only oncogenic
when stimulated by FGF ligands in the bone marrow microenvironment, but
is also a target for activating mutations that enable FGFR3 to play a ras-like role in tumor progression.
