The phosphorylation of Mdm2 by Akt was found to reduce p53 levels and prevent senescence in cells exposed to oxidative stress. This resulted in the promotion of lung cancers driven by Kras(G12D) and carcinogen-induced papilloma and hepatocellular carcinomas in mouse models of ROS-induced cancer. These findings highlight a unique physiological role for Akt-Mdm2-p53 signaling in regulating cell growth and tumorigenesis in response to oxidative stress.
We have shown previously that phosphorylation of Mdm2 by ATM and c-Abl regulates Mdm2-p53 signaling and alters the effects of DNA damage in mice, including bone marrow failure and tumorigenesis induced by ionizing radiation. Here, we examine the physiological effects of Mdm2 phosphorylation by Akt, another DNA damage effector kinase. Surprisingly, Akt phosphorylation of Mdm2 does not alter the p53-mediated effects of ionizing radiation in cells or mice but regulates the p53 response to oxidative stress. Akt phosphorylation of Mdm2 serine residue 183 increases nuclear Mdm2 stability, decreases p53 levels, and prevents senescence in primary cells exposed to reactive oxidative species (ROS). Using multiple mouse models of ROS-induced cancer, we show that Mdm2 phosphorylation by Akt reduces senescence to promote Kras(G12D)-driven lung cancers and carcinogen-induced papilloma and hepatocellular carcinomas. Collectively, we document a unique physiologic role for Akt-Mdm2-p53 signaling in regulating cell growth and tumorigenesis in response to oxidative stress.
