Estrogen-related receptor ? decreases RHOA stability to induce orientated cell migration.

ABSTRACT: Several physiopathological processes require orientated cellular migration. This phenomenon highly depends on members of the RHO family of GTPases. Both excessive and deficient RHO activity impair directional migration. A tight control is thus exerted on these proteins through the regulation of their activation and of their stability. Here we show that the estrogen-related receptor ? (ERR?) directly activates the expression of TNFAIP1, the product of which [BTB/POZ domain-containing adapter for Cullin3-mediated RhoA degradation 2 (BACURD2)] regulates RHOA protein turnover. Inactivation of the receptor leads to enhanced RHOA stability and activation. This results in cell disorientation, increased actin network, and inability to form a lamellipodium at the migration edge. As a consequence, directional migration, but not cell motility per se, is impaired in the absence of the receptor, under pathological as well as physiological conditions. Altogether, our results show that the control exerted by ERR? on RHOA stability is required for directional migration.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Breast cancer (BC) is highly heterogeneous with ~?60-70% of estrogen receptor positive BC patient's response to anti-hormone therapy. Estrogen receptors (ERs) play an important role in breast cancer progression and treatment. Estrogen related receptors (ERRs) are a group of nuclear receptors which belong to orphan nuclear receptors, which have sequence homology with ERs and share target genes. Here, we investigated the possible role and clinicopathological importance of ERR? in breast cancer. METHODS:Estrogen related receptor ? (ERR?) expression was examined using tissue microarray slides (TMA) of Breast Carcinoma patients with adjacent normal by immunohistochemistry and in breast cancer cell lines. In order to investigate whether ERR? is a direct target of ER?, we investigated the expression of ERR? in short hairpin ribonucleic acid knockdown of ER? breast cancer cells by western blot, qRT-PCR and RT-PCR. We further confirmed the binding of ER? by electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA), chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP), Re-ChIP and luciferase assays. Fluorescence-activated cell sorting analysis (FACS) was performed to elucidate the role of ERR? in cell cycle regulation. A Kaplan-Meier Survival analysis of GEO dataset was performed to correlate the expression of ERR? with survival in breast cancer patients. RESULTS:Tissue microarray (TMA) analysis showed that ERR? is significantly down-regulated in breast carcinoma tissue samples compared to adjacent normal. ER?+?ve breast tumors and cell lines showed a significant expression of ERR? compared to ER-ve tumors and cell lines. Estrogen treatment significantly induced the expression of ERR? and it was ER? dependent. Mechanistic analyses indicate that ER? directly targets ERR? through estrogen response element and ERR? also mediates cell cycle regulation through p18, p21cip and cyclin D1 in breast cancer cells. Our results also showed the up-regulation of ERR? promoter activity in ectopically co-expressed ER? and ERR? breast cancer cell lines. Fluorescence-activated cell sorting analysis (FACS) showed increased G0/G1 phase cell population in ERR? overexpressed MCF7 cells. Furthermore, ERR? expression was inversely correlated with overall survival in breast cancer. Collectively our results suggest cell cycle and tumor suppressor role of ERR? in breast cancer cells which provide a potential avenue to target ERR? signaling pathway in breast cancer. CONCLUSION:Our results indicate that ERR? is a negative regulator of cell cycle and a possible tumor suppressor in breast cancer. ERR? could be therapeutic target for the treatment of breast cancer.
