research Ornithine Decarboxylase as a Target for Chemoprevention of Basal and Squamous Cell Carcinomas in Ptch1+/– Mice
The study demonstrated that ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) played a crucial role in the development of basal cell carcinomas (BCCs) in Ptch1+/– mice, particularly under UVB exposure. Overexpression of ODC accelerated BCC induction, while inhibition of ODC, both genetically through antizyme (AZ) overexpression and pharmacologically using α-difluoromethylornithine (DFMO), significantly reduced tumor incidence. DFMO treatment notably decreased visible tumors by about 30% and microscopic lesions by over 80%. These findings suggested that targeting ODC could be a viable chemopreventive strategy to reduce BCC risk, with minimal adverse effects observed.
research Ornithine Decarboxylase as a Target for Chemoprevention of Basal and Squamous Cell Carcinomas in Ptch1+/– Mice
The study demonstrated that ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) played a crucial role in the development of basal cell carcinomas (BCCs) in Ptch1+/– mice, which are genetically predisposed to these tumors. Overexpression of ODC in these mice increased the induction of BCCs when exposed to UVB radiation. Conversely, inhibiting ODC activity through genetic or pharmacological means, such as with the ODC inhibitor α-difluoromethylornithine (DFMO), significantly reduced the incidence and size of UVB-induced BCCs. The study involved 60 Ptch1+/– mice and suggested that targeting ODC could be an effective chemopreventive strategy against BCCs in humans, with DFMO showing potential as a chemopreventive agent despite some reversible ototoxicity at high doses.
