Human T-cell leukemia virus type I (HTLV-I) is
the causative agent for adult T-cell leukemia (ATL). Molecularly, ATL
cells have extensive aneugenic abnormalities that occur, at least in part, from cell cycle dysregulation by the HTLV-I-encoded Tax oncoprotein. Here, we compared six HTLV-I-transformed cells to Jurkat
and primary peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) in their
responses to treatment with microtubule inhibitors. We found that both Jurkat and PBMCs arrested efficiently in mitosis when treated
with nocodazole. By contrast, all six HTLV-I cells failed to arrest
comparably in mitosis, suggesting that ATL cells have a defect in the
mitotic spindle assembly checkpoint. Mechanistically, we observed that
in HTLV-I Tax-expressing cells human spindle assembly checkpoint
factors hsMAD1 and hsMAD2 were mislocated from the nucleus to the
cytoplasm. This altered localization of hsMAD1 and hsMAD2 correlated
with loss of mitotic checkpoint function and chemoresistance to
microtubule inhibitors.
