Telomere dysfunction and shortening induce chromosomal instability and tumorigenesis. In this study, we analyze the adrenocortical dysplasia (acd) mouse, harboring a mutation in Tpp1/Acd. Additional loss of p53 dramatically rescues the acd phenotype in an organ-specific manner, including skin hyperpigmentation and adrenal morphology, but not germ cell atrophy. Survival to weaning age is significantly increased in ACd(acd/acd) p53(-/-) mice. On the contrary, p53(-/-) and p53(+/-) mice with the Acd(acd/acd) genotype show a decreased tumor-free survival, compared with Acd(+/+) mice. Tumors from ACd(acd/acd) p53(+/-) mice show a striking switch from the classic spectrum of p53(-/-) mice toward carcinomas. The acd mouse model provides further support for an in vivo role of telomere deprotection in tumorigenesis.
