The generation of micronuclei is a reflection of
DNA damage, defective mitosis, and loss of genetic material. The
involvement of the MAPK pathway in mediating v-ras-induced
micronuclei in NIH 3T3 cells was examined by inhibiting MAPK
activation. Conversely, the MAPK pathway was constitutively activated
by infecting cells with a v-mos retrovirus. Micronucleus
formation was inhibited by the MAPK kinase inhibitors PD98059 and
U0126, but not by wortmannin, an inhibitor of the
Ras/phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase pathway. Transduction of cells with
v-mos resulted in an increase in micronucleus formation,
also consistent with the involvement of the MAPK pathway. Staining with
the anti-centromeric CREST antibody revealed that instability induced
by constitutive activation of MAPK is due predominantly to aberrant
mitotic segregation, since most of the micronuclei were CREST-positive,
reflective of lost chromosomes. A significant fraction of the
micronuclei were CREST-negative, reflective of lost acentric chromosome
fragments. Some of the instability observed was due to mitotic events,
consistent with the increased formation of bi-nucleated cells, which
result from perturbations of the mitotic spindle and failure to undergo
cytokinesis. This chromosome instability, therefore, is a consequence
of mitotic aberrations, mediated by the MAPK pathway, including
centrosome amplification and formation of mitotic chromosome bridges.
