Project description:The Estrogen Receptor alpha (ERα) controls key cellular functions in hormone responsive breast cancer by assembling in large functional multiprotein complexes. ERα ligands are classified as agonists and antagonist, according to the response they elicit, thus the molecular characterization of the of ERα nuclear iteractome composition following estrogen and antiestrogen stimulation whose is needed to understand their effects on estrogen target tissues, in particular breast cancer. To this aim interaction proteomics coupled to mass spectrometry (MS) was applied to map the ERα nuclear interacting partners in MCF7 breast cancer cell nuclei following estrogen and antiestrogen stimuli.

Project description:The estrogen receptor-α (ERα) is a transcription factor which plays a critical role in controlling cell proliferation and tumorigenesis by recruiting various cofactors to estrogen response elements (EREs) to induce or repress gene transcription. A deeper understanding of these transcriptional mechanisms may uncover novel therapeutic targets for ERα-dependent cancers. Here we show for the first time that BRD4 regulates ERα−induced gene expression by affecting elongation-associated phosphorylation of RNA Polymerase II (RNAPII P-Ser2) and histone H2B monoubiquitination (H2Bub1). Consistently, BRD4 activity is required for estrogen-induced proliferation of ER+ breast and endometrial cancer cells and uterine growth in mice. Genome-wide occupancy studies revealed an enrichment of BRD4 on transcriptional start sites as well as EREs enriched for H3K27ac and demonstrate a requirement for BRD4 for H2B monoubiquitination in the transcribed region of estrogen-responsive genes. Importantly, we further demonstrate that BRD4 occupancy correlates with active mRNA transcription and is required for the production of ERα-dependent enhancer RNAs (eRNAs). These results uncover BRD4 as a central regulator of ERα function and potential therapeutic target.

Project description:ERα is essential for the anti-proliferative response of breast cancer cells not only to estrogen antagonists, but also to estrogen withdrawal by means of aromatase inhibitors. We explored here one of the simplest explanation for this, consisting in the possibility that ERα may have a wide genomic function in absence of ligands. The genomic binding of ERα in the complete absence of estrogen was then studied using hormone-dependent MCF7 cells, by chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing. From these data, 4.2K highly significant binding events were identified, which were further confirmed by comparing binding events in cells expressing ERα to cells silenced for ERα. Apo-ERα binding sites were distributed close to genes with functions associated to cell growth and epithelial maintenance and show significant overlap with binding of other transcription factors important for luminal epithelial breast cancer. Interestingly, we found that upon ERα silencing cognate gene transcription in absence of estrogen is downregulated and this is accompanied by increased H27Kme3 at ERα binding sites. RNA-Seq experiments showed that unliganded ERα controls basal transcription widely, including both coding and noncoding transcripts. Genes affected by ERα silencing can be easily functionally related to mammary epithelium differentiation and maintenance, especially when considering downregulated genes. Additional functions related to inflammatory and immune response was observed. Our data unravel unexpected actions of ERα in breast cancer cells and provide a novel framework to understand success and failure of hormone therapy in breast cancer.

Project description:The closely related transcription factors (TFs), estrogen receptors ERα and ERβ, regulate divergent gene expression programs and proliferative outcomes in breast cancer. Utilizing MCF-7 breast cancer cells with ERα, ERβ, or both receptors as a model system to define the basis of differing response specification by related TFs, we show that these TFs and their key coregulators, SRC3 and RIP140, generate overlapping as well as unique chromatin-binding and transcription-regulating modules. Cistrome and transcriptome analyses and use of clustering algorithms delineated 11 clusters representing different chromatin-bound receptor and coregulator assemblies that could be functionally associated through enrichment analysis with distinct patterns of gene regulation and preferential coregulator usage, RIP140 with ERβ and SRC3 with ERα. The receptors modified each other’s transcriptional effect, and ERβ countered the proliferative drive of ERα through several novel mechanisms associated with specific binding site clusters. Our findings delineate distinct TF-coregulator assemblies that function as control nodes specifying precise patterns of gene regulation, proliferation, and metabolism, as exemplified by two of the most important nuclear hormone receptors in human breast cancer. MCF-7 cells expressing endogenous ERalpha were infected with adenovirus carrying either estrogen receptor beta (AdERb) or no insert (Ad) at multiplicity of infection (moi) of 50. ERβ only cells were generated from these cells by knockdown of ERα in parental cells using the following siERα sequences from Dharmacon: forward, 5’-UCAUCGCAUUCCUUGCAAAdTdT-3’, and reverse, 5’-UUUGCAAGGAAUGCGAUGAdTdT-3’. siRNA experiments were performed as previously described, and resulted in knocknown of ERα mRNA and protein by greater than 95% (GSE4006, PMID 16809442). Briefly, cells were transfected with 20 nM siCtrl [GSE4006] or siERα for 48 h after infection. Then cells were treated with 0.1% EtOH (Veh) or 10 nM E2 (Sigma-Aldrich) for 24h. All experiments were conducted with two replicates. key words; Adenovirus infection,siRNA knock-down, ligand treatment

Project description:MOF is a histone acetyltransferase specific for H4K16 acetylation. It has been demonstrated that MOF is lower expressed in series of human cancers. However, the molecular mechanism underlying the detailed biological function of MOF in endometrial carcinomas (ECa) has not been fully defined. The estrogen receptor α (ERα) action plays a crucial role in endometrial cancer tumorigenesis and progression. Here, our data have demonstrated that estrogen/ERα induces MOF gene transcription, meanwhile MOF stabilizes ERα via acetylating ERα in ECa, indicating that MOF forms a positive feedback loop with ERα. In the whole genome-wide level, RNA microarray analyses have shown that MOF modulates a subset of endogenous ERα-regulated genes, such as apoptosis associated factor DRAM1 and oncogene FXYD3. Knockdown of MOF leads to a G2/M cell cycle arrest and promotes ECa cell growth and proliferation. MOF depletion promotes xenograft tumor growth in mice. In addition, our results have demonstrated that MOF expression is lower in ECa than that in benign endometrial tissues. Importantly, the expression of MOF is positively correlated with that of ERα in clinical samples. Cumulatively, our results suggest a positive feedback regulation involving MOF and ERα is essential for suppression of endometrial cancer.

Project description:The estrogen receptor-alpha (ERα) determines breast cancer cell phenotype and is a prognostic indicator. A better understanding of the mechanisms controlling ERα function may uncover improved strategies for the treatment of breast cancer. Proteasome inhibition was previously reported to regulate estrogen-induced transcription but the mechanisms by which it influences ERα function remain controversial. In this study we investigated the transcriptome-wide effects of the proteasome inhibitor Velcade on estrogen-regulated transcription in MCF7 human breast cancer cells and demonstrate a specific global decrease in estrogen-induced transcription. This set contains 12 microarray samples. 3 controls, 3 estrogen stimulated, 3 Bortezomib stimulated, 3 Bortezomib + estrogen stimulated

Project description:Hormone-dependent gene expression requires dynamic and coordinated epigenetic changes. Estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer is particularly dependent upon extensive chromatin remodeling and changes in histone modifications for the induction of hormone-responsive gene expression. Our previous studies established an important role of bromodomain-containing protein-4 (BRD4) in promoting estrogen-regulated transcription and proliferation of ER+ breast cancer cells. Here, we investigated the association between genome-wide occupancy of histone H4 acetylation at lysine 12 (H4K12ac) and BRD4 in the context of estrogen-induced transcription. Similar to BRD4, we observed that H4K12ac occupancy increases near the transcription start sites (TSS) of estrogen-induced genes as well as at distal ERα binding sites in an estrogen-dependent manner. Interestingly, H4K12ac occupancy highly correlates with BRD4 binding and enhancer RNA production on ERα-positive enhancers. Consistent with an importance in estrogen-induced gene transcription, H4K12ac occupancy globally increased in ER-positive cells relative to ER-negative cells and these levels were further increased by estrogen treatment in an ERα-dependent manner. Together, these findings reveal a strong correlation between H4K12ac and BRD4 occupancy with estrogen-dependent gene transcription and further suggest that modulators of H4K12ac and BRD4 may serve as new therapeutic targets for hormone-dependent cancers. ChIP-seq profiles of H4K12ac in MCF7 cells treated with +/- estrogen treatment and MCF10A cells.

Project description:This microarray analysis was designed to determine (1) the impact of ERα expression on cellular TNFα response and estrogen-TNFα signaling crosstalk and (2) whether cigarette sidestream smoke particulates had estrogen-like action in human lung adenocarcinoma cells. The lung adenocarcinoma cell line CL1-5(TO-ERα)#18 was used as a model. Expression of ERα in this cell line is under Tet-on regulation and can be induced by addition of doxycycline. For the Objective 1, we found three types of TNFα responsive genes: estrogen/ERα-dependent, estrogen/ERα-enhanced, and estrogen/ERα-independent. For the Objective 2, the microarray data revealed that cigarette sidestream smoke particulates regulated given genes via ERα as 17β-estradiol in lung adenocarcinoma cells. Some of these ERα target genes had been identified previously.
