Cooperative interaction between retinoic acid receptor-alpha and estrogen receptor in breast cancer.

ABSTRACT: Retinoic acid receptor-alpha (RAR alpha) is a known estrogen target gene in breast cancer cells. The consequence of RAR alpha induction by estrogen was previously unknown. We now show that RAR alpha is required for efficient estrogen receptor-alpha (ER)-mediated transcription and cell proliferation. RAR alpha can interact with ER-binding sites, but this occurs in an ER-dependent manner, providing a novel role for RAR alpha that is independent of its classic role. We show, on a genome-wide scale, that RAR alpha and ER can co-occupy regulatory regions together within the chromatin. This transcriptionally active co-occupancy and dependency occurs when exposed to the predominant breast cancer hormone, estrogen--an interaction that is promoted by the estrogen-ER induction of RAR alpha. These findings implicate RAR alpha as an essential component of the ER complex, potentially by maintaining ER-cofactor interactions, and suggest that different nuclear receptors can cooperate for effective transcriptional activity in breast cancer cells. RAR alpha silenced breast cancer MCF-7 cell lines or control siRNA in the presence of estrogen or a vehicle. MCF-7 cells were hormone-depleted for 3 d and treated with 100 nM estrogen for 12 h. There were three biological replicates for each of the four different groups.

FoxA1 is a critical determinant of Estrogen Receptor function and endocrine response (part I)

Project description:Estrogen Receptor-a (ER) is the key feature in the majority of breast cancers and ER binding to the genome correlates with the Forkhead protein FOXA1 (HNF3a), but mechanistic insight is lacking. We now show that FOXA1 is the defining factor that governs differential ER-chromatin interactions. We show that almost all ER-chromatin interactions and gene expression changes are dependent on the presence of FOXA1 and that FOXA1 dictates genome-wide chromatin accessibility. Furthermore, we show that CTCF is an upstream negative regulator of FOXA1-chromatin interactions. In ER responsive breast cancer cells, the dependency on FOXA1 for tamoxifen-ER activity is absolute and in tamoxifen resistant cells, ER binding occurs independently of ligand, but in a FOXA1 dependent manner. Importantly, expression of FOXA1 in non-breast cancer cells is sufficient to alter ER binding and response to endocrine treatment. As such, FOXA1 is the primary determinant that regulates estrogen-ER activity and endocrine response in breast cancer cells and is sufficient to program ER functionality in non-breast cancer contexts. breast cancer MCF-7 cell lines were treaated in the presence of Estrogen, Estrogen plus Tamoxifen, Tamoxifen or a vehicle. MCF-7 cells were hormone-depleted for 3 d and treated with 100 nM estrogen or 1 microM Tamoxifen for 6 h. There were four biological replicates for each of the four different groups.

Hyperactivation of PI3K promotes escape from hormone dependence in estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer

Project description:Hyperactivation of phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K) promotes escape from hormone dependence in estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer. A significant fraction of breast cancers exhibit de novo or acquired resistance to estrogen deprivation. We used gene expression microarrays to identify genes and pathways that are commonly dysregulated in ER+ cell lines with acquired hormone-independent growth. MCF-7, ZR75-1, MDA-361, and HCC-1428 ER+, estrogen-responsive breast cancer cells were cultured under hormone-depleted conditions (10% DCC-FBS) for several months until sustainable hormone-independent cell populations emerged.

Modeling the ESR1 tyrosine 537 mutation with CRISPR-Cas9 for mechanistic studies and evaluation of therapeutic approaches for metastatic breast cancer [RNA-Seq]

Project description:Estrogen receptor-α (ERα) is an important driver of breast cancer and is the target for hormonal therapies, anti-estrogens and drugs that limit estrogen biosynthesis (aromatase inhibitors). Mutations in the ESR1 gene identified in metastatic breast cancer provide a potential mechanism for acquired resistance to hormone therapies. We have used CRISPR-Cas9 mediated genome editing in the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line, generating MCF-7-Y537S. MCF-7-Y537S cells encode a wild-type (tyrosine 537) and a mutant (serine 537) allele. Growth of the line is estrogen-independent and expression of ERα target genes is elevated in the absence of estrogen. ER ChIP-seq was carried out to map global ERα binding sites in the presence and absence of estrogen. RNA-seq following estrogen treatment was used for gene expression analysis. We show that expression of ER target genes and ER recruitment to ER binding regions is similar in MCF-7 and MCF-7-Y537S cells, except that ER recruitment to DNA and expression of ER target genes is frequently elevated in the absence of estrogen.

RNA interference screening identifies the Insulin/IGF-1 receptor pathway as a mechanism of escape from hormone dependence in breast cancer

Project description:A significant fraction of breast cancers exhibit de novo or acquired resistance to estrogen deprivation. A kinome-wide siRNA screen identified a role for Insulin Receptor (InsR) in the hormone-independent growth of ER+ breast cancer cells We used gene expression microarrays to identify genes and pathways that are altered by insulin stimulation of ER+ MCF-7 human breast cancer cells. MCF-7 cells were treated with serum-free medium +/- insulin for 4 or 24 hrs prior to RNA harvest for analysis.

Modeling the ESR1 tyrosine 537 mutation with CRISPR-Cas9 for mechanistic studies and evaluation of therapeutic approaches for metastatic breast cancer [ChIP-Seq]

Project description:Estrogen receptor-Î± (ERÎ±) is an important driver of breast cancer and is the target for hormonal therapies, anti-estrogens and drugs that limit estrogen biosynthesis (aromatase inhibitors). Mutations in the ESR1 gene identified in metastatic breast cancer provide a potential mechanism for acquired resistance to hormone therapies. We have used CRISPR-Cas9 mediated genome editing in the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line, generating MCF-7-Y537S. MCF-7-Y537S cells encode a wild-type (tyrosine 537) and a mutant (serine 537) allele. Growth of the line is estrogen-independent and expression of ERÎ± target genes is elevated in the absence of estrogen. ER ChIP-seq was carried out to map global ERÎ± binding sites in the presence and absence of estrogen. RNA-seq following estrogen treatment was used for gene expression analysis. We show that expression of ER target genes and ER recruitment to ER binding regions is similar in MCF-7 and MCF-7-Y537S cells, except that ER recruitment to DNA and expression of ER target genes is frequently elevated in the absence of estrogen Hormone depleted MCF-7 LUC /Y537S mutant cells were treated with estrogen (10nM) or ETOH as vehicle control for 45 mins. ErÎ± Chip-seq was performed using Illumnia methodology
