Project description:We developed conditional knockout mice where the transcription factor Elf5 (also called ESE-2) is deleted in the mammary glands. Loss of Elf5 results in block in alveologenesis and epithelial differentiation defects. Mammary gland samples from Elf5 knockout and wild type animals were analyzed for global transcriptome changes. We used microarrays to performing transcriptional profiling of Elf5KO and control mammary glands at Lac1 (Lactation day 1)

Project description:Elf5, an epithelial-specific Ets transcription factor, plays a crucial role in the pregnancy-associated development of the mammary gland. However, the molecular mechanisms employed by Elf5 to exert its effects on the mammary gland are largely unknown. Transcript profiling was used to investigate the transcriptional changes that occur as a result of Elf5 haploinsufficiency. We show that the development of the Elf5+/- gland is delayed at a transcriptional and morphological level, due to the delayed increase in Elf5 protein in these glands. We also identify a number of potential Elf5 target genes, including Mucin 4, whose expression, is directly regulated by the binding of Elf5 to an Ets-binding site within its promoter. We identify novel transcriptional targets of Elf5 and show that Muc4 is a direct target of Elf5, further elucidating the mechanisms through which Elf5 regulates proliferation and differentiation in the mammary gland.

We identify novel transcriptional targets of Elf5 and show that Muc4 is a direct target of Elf5, further elucidating the mechanisms through which Elf5 regulates proliferation and differentiation in the mammary gland. We used Compugen 22,000 oligo arrays from the Adelaide Microarray Centre to determine the transcriptional effects of the loss of one Elf5 allele on mammary gland development. We examined Elf5+/+ and Elf5+/- mammary glands over 5 timepoints of mammary gland development in three experiments. Each experiment used the pooled RNA of 2 mice, resulting in a total of 6 individual mice at each timepoint per genotype. Replica 1 of each condition was labelled with the one fluorophore, and replicas 2 and 3 with the other fluorophore. A common reference design was used for this experiment. RNA extracted from eight pooled 17.5dpc C57BL/6 mouse embryos was used as the reference sample. In total, we performed 30 micraoarray hybridisations, examining 5 timepoints of mammary gland development in 2 genotypes (Elf5+/+ and Elf5+/-). This experiment was repeated with a total of three biological replicates.

Project description:Elf5 (or ESE-2) is an ETS transcription factor that is abundantly expressed in the mammary epithelium, where it plays a critical role in dictating cell fate and lineage choices. These changes are in part mediated by alterations in the expression and activity of critical components of the Jak/Stat pathway. While the biological function of Elf5 in mammary gland development has been well characterized, its role in breast cancer remains to be elucidated. Here we show that loss of Elf5 leads to features associated with epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in the mouse mammary gland during pregnancy and lactation. These cellular changes in Elf5-null mammary epithelia are also reflected at the molecular level by the global enrichment of EMT-related gene signatures. ELF5 is expressed in higher level in weakly metastatic breast cancer cells that retained epithelial features compared to highly metastatic cells with mesenchymal features. ELF5 knockdown in T47D breast cancer cells resulted in EMT and increased migration. Conversely, ectopic expression of Elf5 revert mesenchymal-like MDA-MB-231 cells and its lung-tropic variant LM2 to an epithelial phenotype, with reduced migration, invasion and lung metastatic abilities. Finally, we showed that Elf5 binds directly to the promoter of the EMT transcriptional factor Snail2 (Slug) and repress its expression. Taken together, these data established a novel function for Elf5 in inhibiting EMT in normal mammary epithelium and in breast cancer through direct targeting of Snail2. This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below.

Project description:The Th-inducing POK (Th-POK, also known as cKrox or ZBTB7B) transcription factor is a key regulator of lineage commitment of immature T cell precursors. It is yet unclear the physiological functions of Th-POK besides helper T cell differentiation. We found that Th-POK is restrictedly expressed in the luminal epithelial cells in the mammary glands. Th-POK is not required for mammary gland development in puberty and alveologenesis in pregnancy. Th-POK-deficient mice are defective in secretory activation upon parturition with large cellular lipid droplets retained within alveolar epithelial cells. We compared microarray gene expression in mammary glands of lactating wild-type or Th-POK-deficient mice. We show that Th-POK directly regulates expression of insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) and insulin-induced Akt-mTOR-SREBP signaling. Th-POK deficiency compromises IRS-1 expression and Akt-mTOR-SREBP signaling in the mammary glands. Thus, Th-POK function as an important regulator of insulin signaling in mammary gland lactation.

Project description:Transcriptomic analysis of adipocyte Tsc1 knockout mammary glands.
| PRJNA733105 | ENA
Project description:We report here the adipocyte-specific ablation of Tsc1 and its affects on lactation and mammary gland function. In this dataset, mammary glands from wild-type and adipocyte Tsc1 knockout mice were isolated during lactation and analysed by RNAseq. Deletion of Tsc1 is predicted to activate mTORC1 in both peripheral and mammary adipocytes. This study demonstrates that deletion of Tsc1 in adipocytes changes mammary gland histology, and function resulting in changes to breastmilk composition.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Elf5, an epithelial specific Ets transcription factor, plays a crucial role in the pregnancy-associated development of the mouse mammary gland. Elf5(-/-) embryos do not survive, however the Elf5(+/-) mammary gland displays a severe pregnancy-associated developmental defect. While it is known that Elf5 is crucial for correct mammary development and lactation, the molecular mechanisms employed by Elf5 to exert its effects on the mammary gland are largely unknown. PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Transcript profiling was used to investigate the transcriptional changes that occur as a result of Elf5 haploinsufficiency in the Elf5(+/-) mouse model. We show that the development of the mouse Elf5(+/-) mammary gland is delayed at a transcriptional and morphological level, due to the delayed increase in Elf5 protein in these glands. We also identify a number of potential Elf5 target genes, including Mucin 4, whose expression, is directly regulated by the binding of Elf5 to an Ets binding site within its promoter. CONCLUSION: We identify novel transcriptional targets of Elf5 and show that Muc4 is a direct target of Elf5, further elucidating the mechanisms through which Elf5 regulates proliferation and differentiation in the mammary gland.
