Fine mapping of androgen regulated genes in LNCaP cells

ABSTRACT: Detailed analysis of androgen regulated gene expression in the LNCaP prostate cancer cell line. Since androgens and the AR are known to be important for prostate cancer cell proliferation and invasion we aimed to identify androgen receptor (AR) regulated genes by combining this detailed Illumina beadarray study of androgen regulated gene expression with AR ChIP-sequencing data. LNCaP cells were grown in RPMI medium supplemented with 10% charcoal dextran stripped (steroid depleted) FBS for 72h, before treatment with 1nM R1881 or vehicle control. Total RNA was harvested every 30min for 4h and then every hour up to 24h using trizol (Sigma), quantified using a Nanodrop spectrophotometer (ND-1000). RNA samples were prepared for analysis on Illumina Human 6 v2 BeadArrays and Biotrove Realtime PCR panels according to the manufacturers protocols (see Supplementary Methods for details). Expression array data were normalised in R using the beadarray software and BASH (see Supplementary Methods for details) (Cairns et al., 2008; Dunning et al., 2007). 48 total RNA samples from LNCaP cells grown for 72h in RPMI supplemented with 10% charcoal dextran stripped FBS, comprising: 3 time zero samples; 10 vehicle (ethanol) control samples taken at 2h, 4h, 8h, 12h, 24h in duplicate; 36 androgen (R1881) treated samples taken every 30min for 4h then every hour until 24h following treatment (with replicates at 1h, 2h, 4h, 8h, 12h, 16h, 20h, 24h) The Illumina HumanWG v2 BeadArrays consist of two replicate sections that we treat as technical replicate arrays for the purposes of this analysis due to small but systematic shifts between sections that need to be addressed in the normalization. Data were analysed from the raw bead-level using the beadarray software, with spatial artefacts identified and removed automatically (BASH) and curated manually (Cairns et al., 2008; Dunning et al., 2007)

Project description:Enzalutamide (ENZ) is a potent androgen receptor (AR) antagonist with activity in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC); however, progression to ENZ-resistant (ENZ-R) CRPC frequently occurs with rising serum PSA levels, implicating AR full length (ARFL) or variants (AR-Vs) in disease progression. To define functional roles of ARFL and AR-Vs in ENZ-R CRPC, we designed 3 antisense oligonucleotides (ASO) targeting exon 1, intron 1, and exon 8 in AR pre-mRNA to knockdown either ARFL alone, or ARFL plus AR-Vs, and examined their respective effects in LNCaP-derived ENZ-R, as well as M12 and 22Rv1, cells. ENZ-R LNCaP xenografts express high levels of both ARFL and AR-V7 compared to CRPC LNCaP xenografts. In particular, ARFL levels were ~20-fold higher than AR-V7. ENZ-R LNCaP sub-lines, derived by selection from the ENZ xenografts, also expressed uniformly high levels of ARFL and AR-V7 compared to CRPC LNCaP cells. In addition, both ARFL and AR-V7 are highly expressed in the nuclear fractions of ENZ-R-LNCaP. In ENZ-R LNCaP cells, knockdown of ARFL alone, or ARFL plus AR-Vs, similarly induced apoptosis, suppressed cell growth and AR-regulated gene expression in vitro, and delayed tumour growth in vivo. In 22Rv1 cells that are inherently resistant to ENZ, knockdown of both ARFL and AR-Vs more potently suppressed cell growth, AR transcriptional activity and AR-regulated gene expression than knockdown of ARFL alone. These data indicate the AR is an important driver of ENZ resistance, and while the contributions of ARFL and AR-Vs can vary across cell systems, ARFL is the key driver in the ENZ-R LNCaP model. AR targeting strategies against both ARFL and AR-Vs is a rational approach for AR-dependent CRPC. CRPC and ENZ-R LNCaP xenografts were generated as described in: Gleave, M.E., et al., Serum prostate specific antigen levels in mice bearing human prostate LNCaP tumors are determined by tumor volume and endocrine and growth factors.
