Mechanism of Telapristone Acetate (CDB4124) on Progesterone Receptor Action in Breast Cancer Cells.

Project description:Progesterone is a steroid hormone that plays an important role in the breast. Progesterone exerts its action through binding to progesterone receptor (PR), a transcription factor. Deregulation of the progesterone signaling pathway is implicated in the formation, development, and progression of breast cancer. Next-generation selective progesterone receptor modulators (SPRMs) have potent antiprogestin activity and are selective for PR, reducing the off-target effects on other nuclear receptors. To date, there is limited information on how the newer generation of SPRMs, specifically telapristone acetate (TPA), affect PR function at the molecular level. In this study, T47D breast cancer cells were used to investigate the molecular mechanism by which TPA antagonizes PR action. Global profiling of the PR cistrome and interactome was done with chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq) and rapid immunoprecipitation mass spectrometry. Validation studies were done on key genes and interactions. Our results demonstrate that treatment with the progestin (R5020) alone resulted in robust PR recruitment to the chromatin, and addition of TPA reduced PR recruitment globally. TPA significantly changed coregulator recruitment to PR compared with R5020. Upon conservative analysis, three proteins (TRPS1, LASP1, and AP1G1) were identified in the R5020+TPA-treated group. Silencing TRPS1 with small interfering RNA increased PR occupancy to the known PR regulatory regions and attenuated the inhibition of gene expression after TPA treatment. TRPS1 silencing alleviated the inhibition of proliferation by TPA. In conclusion, TPA decreases PR occupancy on chromatin and recruits coregulators such as TRPS1 to the PR complex, thereby regulating PR target gene expression and associated cellular responses.

Progesterone regulation of stem and progenitor cells in normal and malignant breast.

Project description:Progesterone plays an important, if not controversial, role in mammary epithelial cell proliferation and differentiation. Evidence supports that progesterone promotes rodent mammary carcinogenesis under some conditions, progesterone receptors (PR) are necessary for murine mammary gland tumorigenesis, and exogenous progestin use in post-menopausal women increases breast cancer risk. Thus, the progesterone/PR signaling axis can promote mammary tumorigenesis, albeit in a context-dependent manner. A mechanistic basis for the tumor promoting actions of progesterone has thus far remained unknown. Recent studies, however, have identified a novel role for progesterone in controlling the number and function of stem and progenitor cell populations in the normal human and mouse mammary glands, and in human breast cancers. These discoveries promise to reshape our perception of progesterone function in the mammary gland, and have spawned new hypotheses for how progestins may increase the risk of breast cancer. Here we review studies on progesterone regulation of mammary stem cells in normal and malignant tissue, and their implications for breast cancer risk, tumorigenesis, and tumor behavior.

The progesterone-receptor modulator, ulipristal acetate, drastically lowers breast cell proliferation.

Project description:PurposeThe proliferation of breast epithelial cells increases during the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle, when they are exposed to progesterone, suggesting that ulipristal acetate, a selective progestin-receptor modulator (SPRM), may reduce breast cell proliferation with potential use in breast cancer chemoprevention.MethodsWomen aged 18-39 were randomized 1:1 to ulipristal 10-mg daily or to a combination oral contraceptive (COC) for 84 days. Participants underwent a breast biopsy and breast MRI at baseline and at end of study treatment. Proliferation of breast TDLU cells was evaluated by Ki67 immunohistochemical stain. We evaluated the breast MRIs for background parenchymal enhancement (BPE). All slides and images were masked for outcome evaluation.ResultsTwenty-eight treatment-compliant participants completed the study; 25 of whom had evaluable Ki67 results at baseline and on-treatment. From baseline to end of treatment, Ki67 % positivity (Ki67%+) decreased a median of 84% in the ulipristal group (N = 13; 2-sided p (2p) = 0.040) versus a median increase of 8% in the COC group (N = 12; 2p = 0.85). Median BPE scores decreased from 3 to 1 in the ulipristal group (p = 0.008) and did not decrease in the COC group.ConclusionUlipristal was associated with a major decrease in Ki67%+ and BPE. Ulipristal would warrant further investigation for breast cancer chemoprevention were it not for concerns about its liver toxicity. Novel SPRMs without liver toxicity could provide a new approach to breast cancer chemoprevention.Trial registrationNCT02922127, 4 October 2016.

Progesterone receptor isoform functions in normal breast development and breast cancer.

Project description:Progesterone acting through two isoforms of the progesterone receptor (PR), PRA and PRB, regulates proliferation and differentiation in the normal mammary gland in mouse, rat, and human. Progesterone and PR have also been implicated in the etiology and pathogenesis of human breast cancer. The focus of this review is recent advances in understanding the role of the PR isoform-specific functions in the normal breast and in breast cancer. Also discussed is information obtained from rodent studies and their relevance to our understanding of the role of progestins in breast cancer etiology.

Alterations in Progesterone Receptor Isoform Balance in Normal and Neoplastic Breast Cells Modulates the Stem Cell Population.

Project description:To investigate the role of PR isoforms on the homeostasis of stem cells in the normal and neoplastic mammary gland, we used PRA and PRB transgenic mice and the T47D human breast cancer cell line and its derivatives, T47D YA and YB (manipulated to express only PRA or PRB, respectively). Flow cytometry and mammosphere assays revealed that in murine breast, overexpression of PRB leads to an increase in luminal and basal progenitor/stem cells. Ovariectomy had a negative impact on the luminal compartment and induced an increase in mammosphere-forming capacity in cells derived from WT and PRA mice only. Treatment with ICI 182,780 augmented the mammosphere-forming capacity of cells isolated from WT and PRA mice, whilst those from PRB remained unaltered. T47D YB cells showed an increase in the CD44+/CD24Low/- subpopulation; however, the number of tumorspheres did not vary relative to T47D and YA, even though they were larger, more irregular, and had increased clonogenic capacity. T47D and YA tumorspheres were modulated by estrogen/antiestrogens, whereas YB spheres remained unchanged in size and number. Our results show that alterations in PR isoform balance have an impact on normal and tumorigenic breast progenitor/stem cells and suggest a key role for the B isoform, with implications in response to antiestrogens.

Differential response of MDA‑MB‑231 breast cancer and MCF10A normal breast cells to cytoskeletal disruption.

Project description:Metastasis remains a major clinical problem in cancer diagnosis and treatment. Metastasis is the leading cause of cancer‑related mortality but is still poorly understood. Cytoskeletal proteins are considered potential therapeutic targets for metastatic cancer cells because the cytoskeleton serves a key role in the migration and invasion of these cells. Vimentin and F‑actin exhibit several functional similarities and undergo quantitative and structural changes during carcinogenesis. The present study investigated the effects of vimentin and F‑actin deficiency on the survival and motility of breast cancer cells. In metastatic breast cancer cells (MDA‑MB‑231) and breast epithelial cells (MCF10A), vimentin was knocked down by small interfering RNA and F‑actin was depolymerized by latrunculin A, respectively. The effect of reduced vimentin and F‑actin content on cell viability was analyzed using the MTT assay and the proliferative capacity was compared by analyzing the recovery rate. The effect on motility was analyzed based on two processes: The distance traveled by tracking the cell nucleus and the movement of the protrusions. The effects on cell elasticity were measured using atomic force microscopy. Separately reducing vimentin or F‑actin did not effectively inhibit the growth and motility of MDA‑MB‑231 cells; however, when both vimentin and F‑actin were simultaneously deficient, MDA‑MB‑231 cells growth and migration were severely impaired. Vimentin deficiency in MDA‑MB‑231 cells was compensated by an increase in F‑actin polymerization, but no complementary action of vimentin on the decrease in F‑actin was observed. In MCF10A cells, no complementary interaction was observed for both vimentin and F‑actin.

Growth hormone is secreted by normal breast epithelium upon progesterone stimulation and increases proliferation of stem/progenitor cells.

Project description:Using in vitro and in vivo experimental systems and in situ analysis, we show that growth hormone (GH) is secreted locally by normal human mammary epithelial cells upon progesterone stimulation. GH increases proliferation of a subset of cells that express growth hormone receptor (GHR) and have functional properties of stem and early progenitor cells. In 72% of ductal carcinoma in situ lesions, an expansion of the cell population that expresses GHR was observed, suggesting that GH signaling may contribute to breast cancer development.
