Project description:We developed conditional knockout mice where the transcription factor Elf5 (also called ESE-2) is deleted in the mammary glands. Loss of Elf5 results in block in alveologenesis and epithelial differentiation defects. Mammary gland samples from Elf5 knockout and wild type animals were analyzed for global transcriptome changes.

Project description:Elf5 (or ESE-2) is an ETS transcription factor that is abundantly expressed in the mammary epithelium, where it plays a critical role in dictating cell fate and lineage choices. These changes are in part mediated by alterations in the expression and activity of critical components of the Jak/Stat pathway. While the biological function of Elf5 in mammary gland development has been well characterized, its role in breast cancer remains to be elucidated. Here we show that loss of Elf5 leads to features associated with epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in the mouse mammary gland during pregnancy and lactation. These cellular changes in Elf5-null mammary epithelia are also reflected at the molecular level by the global enrichment of EMT-related gene signatures. ELF5 is expressed in higher level in weakly metastatic breast cancer cells that retained epithelial features compared to highly metastatic cells with mesenchymal features. ELF5 knockdown in T47D breast cancer cells resulted in EMT and increased migration. Conversely, ectopic expression of Elf5 revert mesenchymal-like MDA-MB-231 cells and its lung-tropic variant LM2 to an epithelial phenotype, with reduced migration, invasion and lung metastatic abilities. Finally, we showed that Elf5 binds directly to the promoter of the EMT transcriptional factor Snail2 (Slug) and repress its expression. Taken together, these data established a novel function for Elf5 in inhibiting EMT in normal mammary epithelium and in breast cancer through direct targeting of Snail2. This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE32143: LM2 cell: infected with lentivirus to stably express Elf5 vs GFP GSE32144: MDA-MB-231 cell: infected with lentivirus to stably express mut-Elf5 vs WT-Elf5

Project description:The ETS transcription factor ELF5 drives mammary alveolar development in preparation for lactation by forcing differentiation within the progenitor cell population. In luminal A breast cancer, early disease progression is predicted by high levels of ELF5, and in preclinical models elevated ELF5 is associated with its two key features, the acquisition of resistance to endocrine therapy and increased metastasis. Here we demonstrate using chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing that ELF5 binding overlaps with FOXA1 and ER at enhancers and promoters, and when elevated causes FOXA1 and ER to bind to new regions of the genome involved in resistance to endocrine therapy.

Project description:Prolactin and progesterone act together to regulate mammary alveolar development, and both hormones have been implicated in breast cancer initiation and progression. Here we show that Elf5, a prolactin-induced ETS transcription factor that specifies the mammary secretory cell lineage, is also induced by progestins in breast cancer cells via a direct mechanism. To define the transcriptional response to progestin elicited via Elf5 we made an inducible Elf5 sh-RNA knock down model in T47D breast cancer cells and used it to prevent the progestin-induction of Elf5. Functional analysis of Affymetrix gene expression data using Gene Ontologies and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis showed enhancement of the progestin effects on cell cycle gene expression. Cell proliferation assays showed a more efficacious progestin-induced growth arrest when Elf5 was kept at baseline levels. These results showed that progestin-induction of Elf5 expression tempered the anti-proliferative effects of progestins in T47D cells, providing a further mechanistic link between prolactin and progestin in the regulation of mammary cell phenotype. We used Affymetrix expression arrays to determine to what extent Elf5 mediated the transcriptional effects of progestins in T47D cells. We transcript profiled our inducible Elf5 hold-down model using triplicate independent experiments under three conditions: (1) treatment with ethanol vehicle only (Baseline), (2) ORG2058 treatment for 4 days (Pg), and (3) Dox and ORG2058 treatment for 4 days, (Pg-Elf5) designed to prevent the progestin-induction of Elf5 expression.

Project description:Elf5, an epithelial-specific Ets transcription factor, plays a crucial role in the pregnancy-associated development of the mammary gland. However, the molecular mechanisms employed by Elf5 to exert its effects on the mammary gland are largely unknown. Transcript profiling was used to investigate the transcriptional changes that occur as a result of Elf5 haploinsufficiency. We show that the development of the Elf5+/- gland is delayed at a transcriptional and morphological level, due to the delayed increase in Elf5 protein in these glands. We also identify a number of potential Elf5 target genes, including Mucin 4, whose expression, is directly regulated by the binding of Elf5 to an Ets-binding site within its promoter. We identify novel transcriptional targets of Elf5 and show that Muc4 is a direct target of Elf5, further elucidating the mechanisms through which Elf5 regulates proliferation and differentiation in the mammary gland.

We used Compugen 22,000 oligo arrays from the Adelaide Microarray Centre to determine the transcriptional effects of the loss of one Elf5 allele on mammary gland development. We examined Elf5+/+ and Elf5+/- mammary glands over 5 timepoints of mammary gland development in three experiments. Each experiment used the pooled RNA of 2 mice, resulting in a total of 6 individual mice at each timepoint per genotype. Replica 1 of each condition was labelled with the one fluorophore, and replicas 2 and 3 with the other fluorophore. A common reference design was used for this experiment. RNA extracted from eight pooled 17.5dpc C57BL/6 mouse embryos was used as the reference sample. In total, we performed 30 micraoarray hybridisations, examining 5 timepoints of mammary gland development in 2 genotypes (Elf5+/+ and Elf5+/-). This experiment was repeated with a total of three biological replicates.

Project description:The ETS transcription factor ELF5 drives mammary alveolar development in preparation for lactation by forcing differentiation within the progenitor cell population. In luminal A breast cancer, early disease progression is predicted by high levels of ELF5, and in preclinical models elevated ELF5 is associated with its two key features, the acquisition of resistance to endocrine therapy and increased metastasis. We first created an MCF7 cell line with doxycycline-inducible ELF5 and then examined with ChIP-seq differences in genomic binding of FOXA1, ER and H3K4me3 upon doxycycline treatment, compared to vehicle. In addition we performed RNA-seq experiments to examine changes in gene expression upon induction of ELF5 expression. Here we demonstrate that ELF5 binding overlaps with FOXA1 and ER at enhancers and promoters, and when elevated causes FOXA1 and ER to bind to new regions of the genome involved in resistance to endocrine therapy. RNA-seq demonstrated that these changes altered gene expression to diminish estrogen influence, and that ELF5 regulated the expression of ER transcription-complex genes. These data show that ELF5 modulated estrogen-driven transcription in breast cancer by directing FOXA1 and ER to new genomic locations, and by interaction with, and regulation of, members of the ER transcriptional complex. This provides a mechanistic basis for the influence of ELF5 on the progression of luminal breast cancer to endocrine insensitivity.

Project description:The ets transcription factor ELF5 specifies the differentiation of mammary progenitor cells to establish the milk-secreting lineage. ER- and poor prognosis basal breast cancers arise from this progenitor cell and these cancers express high levels of Elf5. Knockdown of ELF5 expression in basal breast cancer cell lines, or forced expression in luminal breast cancer cell lines, resulted in reduced cell proliferation. Transcript profiling and chromatin immunoprecipitation revealed that the transcriptional activity of ELF5 specified the gene expression patterns that distinguish basal from luminal breast cancer, including suppression of FOXA1, GATA3 and ER, key estrogen-action genes. Tamoxifen treatment of luminal MCF7 cells upregulated Elf5 expression and cells that acquired resistance to Tamoxifen became dependent on ELF5 for proliferation. ELF5 is a regulator of breast cancer cell proliferation, transcriptionally specifies the basal molecular subtype and is utilised by ER+ breast cancer cells to escape proliferative arrest caused by Tamoxifen.
