TNF? signaling exposes latent estrogen receptor binding sites to alter the breast cancer cell transcriptome.

ABSTRACT: The interplay between mitogenic and proinflammatory signaling pathways plays key roles in determining the phenotypes and clinical outcomes of breast cancers. Using GRO-seq in MCF-7 cells, we defined the immediate transcriptional effects of crosstalk between estradiol (E2) and TNF?, identifying a large set of target genes whose expression is rapidly altered with combined E2 + TNF? treatment, but not with either agent alone. The pleiotropic effects on gene transcription in response to E2 + TNF? are orchestrated by extensive remodeling of the ER? enhancer landscape in an NF-?B- and FoxA1-dependent manner. In addition, expression of the de novo and synergistically regulated genes is strongly associated with clinical outcomes in breast cancers. Together, our genomic and molecular analyses indicate that TNF? signaling, acting in pathways culminating in the redistribution of NF-?B and FoxA1 binding sites across the genome, creates latent ER? binding sites that underlie altered patterns of gene expression and clinically relevant cellular responses.

Project description:The interplay between mitogenic and proinflammatory signaling pathways play key roles in determining the phenotypes and clinical outcomes of breast cancers. We have used global nuclear run-on coupled with deep sequencing to characterize the immediate transcriptional responses of MCF-7 breast cancer cells treated with estradiol, TNFα, or both. In addition, we have integrated these data with chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled with deep sequencing for estrogen receptor alpha (ERα), the pioneer factor FoxA1 and the p65 subunit of the NF-κB transcription factor. Our results indicate extensive transcriptional interplay between these two signaling pathways, which is observed for a number of classical mitogenic and proinflammatory protein-coding genes. In addition, GRO-seq has allowed us to capture the transcriptional crosstalk at the genomic locations encoding for long non-coding RNAs, a poorly characterized class of RNAs which have been shown to play important roles in cancer outcomes. The synergistic and antagonistic interplay between estrogen and TNFα signaling at the gene level is also evident in the patterns of ERα and NF-κB binding, which relocalize to new binding sites that are not occupied by either treatment alone. Interestingly, the chromatin accessibility of classical ERα binding sites is predetermined prior to estrogen treatment, whereas ERα binding sites gained upon co-treatment with TNFα require NF-κB and FoxA1 to promote chromatin accessibility de novo. Our data suggest that TNFα signaling recruits FoxA1 and NF-κB to latent ERα enhancer locations and directly impact ERα enhancer accessibility. Binding of ERα to latent enhancers upon co-treatment, results in increased enhancer transcription, target gene expression and altered cellular response. This provides a mechanistic framework for understanding the molecular basis for integration of mitogenic and proinflammatory signaling in breast cancer.
