Interaction between p53 and estradiol pathways in transcriptional responses to chemotherapeutics.

ABSTRACT: Estrogen receptors (ERs) and p53 can interact via cis-elements to regulate the angiogenesis-related VEGFR-1 (FLT1) gene, as we reported previously. Here, we address cooperation between these transcription factors on a global scale. Human breast adenocarcinoma MCF7 cells were exposed to single or combinatorial treatments with the chemotherapeutic agent doxorubicin and the ER ligand 17?-estradiol (E2). Whole-genome transcriptome changes were measured by expression microarrays. Nearly 200 differentially expressed genes were identified that showed limited responsiveness to either doxorubicin treatment or ER ligand alone but were upregulated in a greater than additive manner following combined treatment. Based on exposure to 5-fuorouracil and nutlin-3a, the combined responses were treatment-specific. Among 16 genes chosen for validation using quantitative real-time PCR, seven (INPP5D, TLR5, KRT15, EPHA2, GDNF, NOTCH1, SOX9) were confirmed to be novel direct targets of p53, based on responses in MCF7 cells silenced for p53 or cooperative targets of p53 and ER. Promoter pattern searches and chromatin IP experiments for the INPP5D, TLR5, KRT15 genes supported direct, cis-mediated p53 and/or ER regulation through canonical and noncanonical p53 and ER response elements. Collectively, we establish that combinatorial activation of p53 and ER can induce novel gene expression programs that have implications for cell-cell communications, adhesion, cell differentiation, development and inflammatory responses as well as cancer treatments.

Here, we address cooperation between these transcription factors on a global scale.

Project description:While pathogen-induced immunity is comparatively well characterized, far less is known about plant defense responses to arthropod herbivores. To date, most molecular-genetic studies of plant-arthropod interactions have focused on insects. However, plant-feeding (phytophagous) mites are also pests of diverse plants, and mites induce different patterns of damage to plant tissues than do well-studied insects (e.g., Lepidopteran larvae or aphids). The two-spotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae, is among the most significant mite pests in agriculture. T. urticae is an extreme generalist that has been documented on a staggering number of plant hosts (more than 1,100), and is renowned for the rapid evolution of pesticide resistance. To understand reciprocal interactions between T. urticae and a plant host at the molecular level, we examined mite herbivory using Arabidopsis thaliana. Despite differences in feeding guilds, we found that transcriptional responses of A. thaliana to mite herbivory generally resembled those observed for insect herbivores. In particular, defense to mites was mediated by jasmonic acid (JA) biosynthesis and signaling. Further, indole glucosinolates dramatically increased mite mortality and development times. Variation in both basal and activated levels of these defense pathways might also explain differences in mite damage and feeding success between A. thaliana accessions. On the herbivore side, a diverse set of genes associated with detoxification of xenobiotics was induced upon exposure to increasing levels of in planta indole glucosinolates. Our findings provide molecular insights into the nature of, and response to, herbivory for a representative of a major class of arthropod herbivores. We used microarray to assess global gene expresion in Arabidopsis thaliana upon Tetranychus urticae attack in two A. thaliana accessions: Bla-2, resistant to spider mite herbivory and Kon, susceptible to spider mite herbivory. 3 week old Arabidopsis thaliana plants were subjected to Tetranychus urticae attack through application of 10 mites for various periods of time (timecourse scenario) or hundreds of mites for 1 hour (feeding site scenario).
