Project description:GATA3 transcription factor is considered critical for luminal development and differentiation in normal and malignant mammary epithelial cells (MECs). The androgen receptor (AR) has also been associated with luminal gene expression profiles in breast cancer, independent of the estrogen receptor (ER), and has been shown to promote a basal to luminal phenotype transition in mouse MECs. To date, the potential interaction of GATA3 and AR in transcriptional regulation of lineage driver genes in breast cancer has never been investigated. Our unbiased proteomic analysis identified GATA3 as a novel AR interacting protein in a variety of breast cancer cell types regardless of ER expression. We showed that AR and GATA3 interact in the cytoplasm and nucleus of normal and malignant breast epithelia, an interaction increased by androgen treatment. Androgen stimulation of breast cancer cells also induced nuclear translocation of AR and GATA3 and resulted in enrichment of co-localized AR and GATA3 chromatin binding events. Using ER+ and/or ER- breast cancer cell lines and ER+ patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models of breast cancer, we identified a conserved subset of AR agonist-induced AR and GATA3 co-occupied cis-regulatory elements across all models. Knockdown experiments indicated that GATA3 acts as an AR co-regulator to upregulate transcription of known luminal-lineage genes (e.g. EHF, AQP3, and KDM4B) and downregulate basal-lineage genes (e.g. SMAD3 and ELK3). Also, we showed an induction in the chromatin accessibility at those subsets of common AR-GATA3 cis-regulatory elements, which drive the luminal lineage identity in breast cancer upon androgen stimulation. Collectively, AR-GATA3 interaction and function provide a mechanism underpinning epithelial breast cancer cells that are classified as having a luminal mature transcriptome independent of ER status, through regulating the expression of lineage-restricted markers.

Project description:BackgroundThe androgen receptor (AR) is a tumor suppressor in estrogen receptor (ER) positive breast cancer, a role sustained in some ER negative breast cancers. Key factors dictating AR genomic activity in a breast context are largely unknown. Herein, we employ an unbiased chromatin immunoprecipitation-based proteomic technique to identify endogenous AR interacting co-regulatory proteins in ER positive and negative models of breast cancer to gain new insight into mechanisms of AR signaling in this disease.ResultsThe DNA-binding factor GATA3 is identified and validated as a novel AR interacting protein in breast cancer cells irrespective of ER status. AR activation by the natural ligand 5α-dihydrotestosterone (DHT) increases nuclear AR-GATA3 interactions, resulting in AR-dependent enrichment of GATA3 chromatin binding at a sub-set of genomic loci. Silencing GATA3 reduces but does not prevent AR DNA binding and transactivation of genes associated with AR/GATA3 co-occupied loci, indicating a co-regulatory role for GATA3 in AR signaling. DHT-induced AR/GATA3 binding coincides with upregulation of luminal differentiation genes, including EHF and KDM4B, established master regulators of a breast epithelial cell lineage. These findings are validated in a patient-derived xenograft model of breast cancer. Interaction between AR and GATA3 is also associated with AR-mediated growth inhibition in ER positive and ER negative breast cancer.ConclusionsAR and GATA3 interact to transcriptionally regulate luminal epithelial cell differentiation in breast cancer regardless of ER status. This interaction facilitates the tumor suppressor function of AR and mechanistically explains why AR expression is associated with less proliferative, more differentiated breast tumors and better overall survival in breast cancer.
