Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 and 3 (FGFR1, FGFR3) impact on tissue homoeostasis, embryonic development and carcinogenesis. Murine double minute protein 4 (MDM4) and mouse double minute 2 homologue (MDM2) are regulators of p53-protein and may be the origin of an apoptosis overpowering cascade. A collective of 266 carcinomas of salivary glands were investigated for MDM2, MDM4, FGFR1 and FGFR3 aberrations by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). The results were matched with clinicopathological parameters and with expression of PTEN and p53. MDM2 gene amplification (n = 9) and chromosomal aberrations (trisomy, n = 47; high polysomy, n = 7) are linked to high-grade malignancy (P < 0.001), lymph node metastasis (P = 0.001), advanced tumour size (P = 0.013) and stage (P < 0.001), gender (P = 0.002) and age (P = 0.001). MDM4 gene amplification (n = 19) and chromosomal aberrations (trisomy, n = 34; high polysomy, n = 31) are correlated to high-grade malignancy (P < 0.001), lymph node metastasis (P = 0.008), advanced tumour size (P = 0.039), stage (P = 0.004) and loss of PTEN (P < 0.001). Only, high-grade malignancy (P < 0.001), lymph node metastasis (P = 0.036) and advanced tumour stage (P = 0.025) are associated with FGFR3 amplification (n = 1) or chromosomal aberrations (low polysomy, n = 61; high polysomy, n = 55) but not with MDM4 alterations. FGFR1 amplifications (n = 5) and chromosomal aberrations (trisomy, n = 38; high polysomy, n = 30) are associated with high-grade malignancy (P < 0.001), advanced tumour size (P = 0.026) and stage (P = 0.004), gender (P = 0.016) and age (P = 0.023). Aberrations of MDM2, MDM4, FGFR1 and FGFR3 correlate with aggressive tumour growth and nodal metastasis. MDM2 (P < 0.001), MDM4 (P = 0.005) and FGFR3 (P = 0.006) alterations are associated with worse overall survival of patients with salivary gland cancer.
