Estradiol-dependent 3D chromatin structure changes in MCF7 cells assessed by Capture-C, covering GREB1 and NRIP1 gene and enhancer regions

ABSTRACT: Estrogen-receptor alpha (ERα)-dependent enhancers in the human breast cancer cell line MCF7 are a well-studied model system that allows high temporal resolution tracking of the different molecular events after hormone treatment and in which the enhancer and their target genes, as well as many of the molecular mechanisms operating in enhancer activation, are well defined. We use Capture-C to look at enhancer-promoter contact frequencies of GREB1 and NRIP1 genes across a time course (5, 30 and 60 min) after E2 addition to MCF7 cells which had been extensively starved of hormone. Additionally, ee look at the E2-dependent enhancer-promoter contact frequencies at these two loci in different contexts: in cells where the enhancer regions have been deleted; in cells treated with tamoxifen as well as with estradiol to assess the effect of different ERα ligands; and in cells pre-treated with the transcription inhibitors Flavopiridol and Triptolide to assess the role of active transcription.

Regulation of DNA Methylation at Enhancers by TET2 Finetunes Gene Transcription in ERα-Positive Breast Cancer Cells

Project description:Background: Aberrant DNA methylation is an epigenetic hallmark of most malignant tumors including breast cancer. However, the exact role of TET2-mediated DNA demethylation in ERα-positive luminal breast cancer is not well understood. Results: Here we showed by TCGA analyses that lower TET2 mRNA expression level is associated with worse clinical outcomes (i.e., overall survival) in ERα-positive but not ERα-negative breast cancer. Moreover, depletion of TET2 by CRISPR/Cas9 results in increased tumorigenesis capability of MCF7 cells in vitro. Whole genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS) analysis revealed that DNA hypermethylation (gain-of-5mC) occurs within a subgroup of enhancers including estrogen responsive element (EREs) in MCF7 cells upon TET2 depletion. ChIP-seq and RNA-seq analysis showed that TET2 depletion impairs E2-induced ERα binding to these ‘gain-of-5mC’ EREs and gene transcription. Conclusions: Our data suggest that TET2-mediated enhancer DNA demethylation fine-tunes ERα-dependent and independent gene transcription in ERα-positive breast cancer cells.

A distal super enhancer mediates estrogen-dependent mouse uterine–specific gene transcription of Insulin-like growth factor 1 (Igf1)

Project description:Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) is primarily synthesized in and secreted from the liver; however, estrogen (E2), through E2 receptor α (ERα), increases uterine Igf1 mRNA levels. Previous ChIP-Seq analyses of the murine uterus have revealed a potential enhancer region distal from the Igf1 transcription start site (TSS) with multiple E2-dependent ERα-binding regions. Here, we show E2-dependent super enhancer–associated characteristics and suggest contact between the distal enhancer and the Igf1 TSS. We hypothesized that this distal super-enhancer region controls E2-responsive induction of uterine Igf1 transcripts. We deleted 430 bp, encompassing one of the ERα-binding sites, thereby disrupting interactions of the enhancer with gene-regulatory factors. As a result, E2-mediated induction of mouse uterine Igf1 mRNA is completely eliminated, whereas hepatic Igf1 expression remains unaffected. This highlights the central role of a distal enhancer in the assembly of the factors necessary for E2-dependent interaction with the Igf1 TSS and induction of uterus-specific Igf1 transcription. Of note, loss of the enhancer did not affect fertility or uterine growth responses. Deletion of uterine Igf1 in a PgrCre;Igf1f/f model decreased female fertility, but did not impact the E2-induced uterine growth response. Moreover, E2-dependent activation of uterine IGF1 signaling was not impaired by disrupting the distal enhancer or by deleting the coding transcript. This indicated a role for systemic IGF1, suggested that other growth mediators drive uterine response to E2, and that uterine-derived IGF1 is essential for reproductive success. Our findings elucidate the role of a super enhancer in Igf1 regulation and uterine growth.

A non-canonical role of YAP/TEAD is required for activation of estrogen-regulated enhancers in breast cancer [GRO-seq]

Project description:Estrogen and estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) signaling plays an essential role in ERα-positive breast cancer. ERα mainly occupies on distal enhancers within genome and requires the cooperation of additional co-factors to tune the enhancer activity. Through in vivo proximity-dependent labeling technique BioID, we identified YAP1 and TEAD4 protein as novel co-regulators of ERα. YAP and TEAD are nuclear effectors of the Hippo pathway regulating cell proliferation, organ size and tumorigenesis. Their non-canonical function as transcriptional co-regulators for other signals have been reported but remains under investigated. Our ChIP-seq data in both MCF7 and T47D breast cancer cell lines indicated that YAP1 and TEAD4 co-bind to the strongest estrogen-responsive ERα-bound enhancers, and their bindings are augmented upon E2 stimulation. Knockdown of YAP1 or TEAD4 showed a global effect on the induction of E2/ERα target genes as examined by RNA-seq, also on E2-induced oncogenic growth of ER-positive breast cancer cells. We used Global Run-on sequencing (GRO-seq) assays to test the expression of enhancer non-coding RNAs (eRNAs), which are sensitive markers for estrogen-induced enhancer activation. Our results supported our hypothesis that the recruitment YAP/TEAD to ERα-bound enhancers is required for enhancer activation. Further studies revealed that the binding of YAP1 on ERα enhancers is a prerequisite for the recruitment of the enhancer activation machinery component MED1. These findings indicate that ERα collaborates with YAP1 and TEAD4 to activate or maintain its enhancer activity. Our data reveals a non-canonical function of YAP1 and TEAD4, which is independent of their canonical target genes, in regulating cancer growth, highlighting the potential of YAP1 and TEAD4 as actionable drug targets for ERα-positive breast cancer.

Regulation of TET2 gene expression and 5mC oxidation in breast cancer cells by estrogen signaling [hMeDIP-seq]

Project description:Estrogen signaling plays important roles in diverse physiological and pathophysiological processes. However, the relationship between estrogen signaling and epigenetic regulation is not fully understood. Here, we explored the effect of estrogen signaling on the expression of Ten-Eleven Translocation (TET) family genes and DNA hydroxylmethylation in estrogen receptor alpha positive (ERα+) breast cancer cells. By analyzing the RNA-seq data, we identified TET2 as an estradiol (E2)-responsive gene in ERα+ MCF7 cells. RT-qPCR and Western blot analyses confirmed that both the mRNA and protein levels of TET2 gene were upregulated in MCF7 cells by E2 treatment. ChIP-seq and qPCR analyses showed that the enrichment of ERα and H3K27ac on the upstream regulatory regions of TET2 gene was increased in MCF7 cells upon E2 treatment. Moreover, E2 treatment also led to a significant increase in the global 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) level, while knockout of TET2 abolished such E2-induced 5hmC increase. Conversely, treatment with ICI 182780, a potent and selective estrogen receptor degrader (SERD), inhibited TET2 gene expression and down-regulated the 5hmC level in MCF7 cells. Taken together, our study identified an ERα/TET2/5hmC epigenetic pathway, which may participate in the estrogen-associated physiological and pathophysiological processes.

Functional Importance of eRNAs for Estrogen-dependent Gene Transcriptional Activation

Project description:The functional importance of gene enhancers in regulated gene expression is well established. In addition to widespread transcription of long non-coding RNA (ncRNA) transcripts in mammalian cells, bidirectional ncRNAs referred to as eRNAs are present on enhancers. However, it has remained unclear whether these eRNAs are functional, or merely a reflection of enhancer activation. Here, we report that 17 β-estradiol (E2)-bound estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) on enhancers causes a global increase in eRNA transcription on enhancers adjacent to E2 upregulated coding genes. These induced eRNAs, as functional transcripts, appear to exert important roles for the observed ligand-dependent induction of target coding genes, causing an increased strength of specific enhancer:promoter looping initiated by ERα binding. Cohesin, present on many ERα-regulated enhancers even prior to ligand treatment, apparently contributes to E2-dependent gene activation by stabilizing E2/ERα/eRNA-induced enhancer:promoter looping. Our data indicate that eRNAs are likely to exert important functions in many regulated programs of gene transcription.

Overlapping and distinct functions between ERα and ERβ homodimers and corresponding transcriptomes in the same cellular context

Project description:The two estrogen receptors, ERα and ERβ function as ligand-inducible transcription factors. Most in vitro studies have reported that ERα drives breast cancer growth whereas ERβ, if expressed, suppresses growth. To dissect function and gene expression profile regulated by ERα or ERβ, respectively, we generated a novel cell model expressing only ERβ, by applying CRISPR-cas9 to delete ERα in MCF7 cells with stable Tet-Off-inducible ERβ expression. This model with ERβ expression only, exhibited regulation of known estrogen responsive genes in a ligand-dependent manner. By cell proliferation assay, we found that either ER was required for proliferation, and that while E2 increased proliferation of ERα (only) MCF7, it reduced proliferation of ERβ (only) MCF7 cells. RNA-Seq analysis revealed 768 and 984 specific target genes regulated by ERα and ERβ in response to E2, respectively. Furthermore, functional enrichment analysis showed that the two ER isoforms regulated cell proliferation in opposite direction. In conclusion, within the same cellular context the two ERs regulated cell proliferation in opposite manner by regulating distinct sets of target genes in response to E2. The novel developed cell model provides a novel and valuable resource to further complement the mechanistic understanding of the two different ER isoforms.

Cyclin D1 determines estrogen dependent signaling in human breast cancer cell line MCF7

Project description:The CCND1 gene, which is frequently overexpressed in cancers, encodes the regulatory subunit of a holoenzyme that phosphorylates the retinoblastoma protein (pRb). It is known that cyclin D1 regulates ERα transactivation using heterologous reporter systems, the significance of this observation to E2 dependent gene activation is unknow. E2 stimulated MCF7 cells treated with cyclin D1 siRNA in order to analyze the genes regulated by estradiol in a cyclin D1 dependent manner. Hormone deprived MCF7 cells were treated with cyclin D1 siRNA or control siRNA and stimulated with E2 or vehicle

ChIP-seq of estrogen receptor α in wild type MCF7-V and in MCF7-V breast carcinoma cell line transduced with a doxycyline-inducible construct to express ZEB1.

Project description:The epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) is implicated in the metastatic spread of breast cancer cells. EMT transcription factors (TF) regulate different stages of EMT states. In breast cancers, estrogen receptor α (ERα) maintains the epithelial characteristics of breast tumors and is indispensable for efficient endocrine therapy. In this study we investigate whether and how ZEB1, an EMT-TF affects ERα signaling at early stages of EMT and metastasis. We did ERα ChIP-seq in wild type MCF7-V cells for comparative studies. We also did ERα ChIP-seq in cells stably expressing a doxycycline-inducible construct to express ZEB1. This was to determine the impact of ZEB1 on the ERα cistrome in MCF7-V breast cancer cells induced with DMSO, 17-beta estradiol (E2), and forskolin + 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX) (FI).
