Translocations involving fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (fgfr3) have been identified in about 25% of patients with
myeloma. To directly examine the oncogenic potential of
fgfr3, murine bone marrow (BM) cells were transduced with
retroviral vectors containing either wild-type fgfr3 or an
activated mutant form of the receptor, fgfr3-TD. Mice
transplanted with FGFR3-TD-expressing BM developed a marked
leukocytosis and lethal hematopoietic cell infiltration of multiple
tissues within 6 weeks of transplantation. Secondary and tertiary
recipients of spleen or BM from primary fgfr3-TD mice also
developed tumors within 6 to 8 weeks. Analysis of the circulating tumor
cells revealed a pre-B-cell phenotype in most mice, although immature
T-lymphoid or mature myeloid populations also predominated in some
animals. Enhanced lymphoid but not myeloid colony formation was
observed in the early posttransplantation period and only interleukin 7 and FGF-responsive pre-B-cell lines could be established from tumors.
Cell expansions in primary recipients appeared polyclonal, whereas
tumors in later passages exhibited either clonal B- or T-cell receptor
gene rearrangements. Mice transplanted with wild-type FGFR3-expressing
BM developed delayed pro-B-cell lymphoma/leukemias approximately
1 year after transplantation. These studies confirm that FGFR3 is
transforming and can produce lymphoid malignancies in mice.
