Overexpression of c-Myc antagonises transcriptional output of the androgen receptor in prostate cancer [expression]

ABSTRACT: Prostate cancer is the most common non-cutaneous cancer in men. The androgen receptor (AR) a ligand-activated transcription factor, constitutes the main drug target for advanced cases of the disease. However, a variety of other transcription factors and signalling networks have been shown to be altered in patients and to influence AR activity. The oncogenic transcription factor c-Myc has been studied extensively in multiple malignancies, but its impact on AR activity in prostate cancer remains elusive. In this study we assessed the impact of clinically relevant levels of c-Myc overexpression on AR activity and transcriptional output. We found that c-Myc and the AR share a substantial amount of binding sites, which exhibit enhancer-like characteristics. Interestingly, c-Myc overexpression altered global AR chromatin occupancy and antagonised a subset of androgen-induced genes. Furthermore, c-Myc overexpression modified histone marks, most notably H3K4me1 and H3K27me3. Lastly, we validated the antagonistic relationship between c-Myc and two AR target genes, KLK3 and GNMT, in patient samples.

Gene expression data from treated LNCaP prostate cells.

Project description:Prostate cancer is dependent on androgen receptor (AR) signaling at all stages of the disease and cyclin D1 has been shown to negatively modulate the expression of the AR-dependent gene prostate specific antigen (KLK3/PSA). Unbiased gene expression profiling was performed to determine the androgen-regulated geneset that is sensitive to cyclin D1. Androgen-sensitive LNCaP cells were straved of androgen, then transduced with control green fluorescent protein (GFP) or cyclin D1 (CCND1) adenovirus, then subsequently stimulated with control (Ethanol) or dihydrotestosterone (DHT).

MYC drives aggressive prostate cancer by disrupting transcriptional pause release at androgen receptor targets

Project description:c-MYC (MYC) is a major driver of prostate cancer tumorigenesis and progression. Although MYC is overexpressed in both early and metastatic disease and associated with poor survival, its impact on prostate transcriptional reprogramming remains elusive. We demonstrate that MYC overexpression significantly diminishes the androgen receptor (AR) transcriptional program (the set of genes directly targeted by the AR protein) in luminal prostate cells without altering AR expression. Importantly, analyses of clinical specimens revealed that concurrent low AR and high MYC transcriptional programs accelerate prostate cancer progression toward a metastatic, castration-resistant disease. Data integration of single-cell transcriptomics together with chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing (ChIP-seq) revealed an increased RNA polymerase II (Pol II) promoter-proximal pausing at AR-dependent genes following MYC overexpression without an accompanying deactivation of AR-bound enhancers. Altogether, our findings suggest that MYC overexpression antagonizes the canonical AR transcriptional program and contributes to prostate tumor initiation and progression by disrupting transcriptional pause release at AR-regulated genes.

Activation of the P-TEFb Complex by Lethal Prostate Cancer-Associated Enhancer RNAs [ChIP-Seq]

Project description:Castration resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) is a lethal disease1-4. Aberrant activation of the androgen receptor (AR) becomes a central mechanism contributing to the resistance of endocrine therapies2,3. Here we demonstrate that non-coding RNAs transcribed from the AR bound-enhancers RNAs (AR-eRNAs) are upregulated in human CRPC cells in vitro, xenografts in vivo and patient tissues. Expression of a subset of genes with elevated AR-eRNAs, including TLE1 and HTR3A, is inversely correlated with biochemical recurrence-free survival of CRPC patients. We identify aan HIV-1 TAR-like (TAR-L) motif in AR-eRNAs of AR target genes including KLK3 (or PSA) and TMPRSS2. The TAR-L motif is important for these eRNAs to bind to CYCLIN T1 of the positive transcription elongation factor b (P-TEFb) complex. Knockdown of PSA eRNA diminishes RNA polymerase II (Pol II) serine-2 (Ser-2) phosphorylation at the PSA promoter. The TAR-L motif in KLK3 eRNA is crucial for effective transcription of PSA mRNA. Together, wWe demonstrate a P-TEFb activation function of eRNA and reveal aberrant eRNA expression as a functional indicator of AR abnormality in CRPC. Our results also suggest that eRNAs as amay be a potential target for CRPC therapy. Androgen receptor (AR) binding sites in human prostate cancer cell lines, LNCaP and C4-2, were studied using ChIP-seq. ChIP enriched and input DNA were sequenced using Illumina HiSeq 2000.

Prostate cancer androgen receptor activity dictates efficacy of bipolar androgen therapy through MYC [RNA-seq: patient biopsies]

Project description:Testosterone is the canonical growth factor of prostate cancer but can paradoxically suppress its growth when present at supraphysiological levels. We have previously demonstrated that the cyclical administration of supraphysiological androgen (SPA), entitled Bipolar Androgen Therapy (BAT), can result in tumor regression and clinical benefit for patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer. However, predictors and mechanisms of response and resistance have been ill-defined. Here we show that growth inhibition of prostate cancer models by SPA requires high androgen receptor (AR) activity and is driven in part by downregulation of MYC. Using matched sequential patient biopsies, we show that high pre-treatment AR activity predicts downregulation of MYC, clinical response, and prolonged progression-free and overall survival for patients on BAT. BAT induced strong downregulation of AR in all patients, which is shown to be a primary mechanism of acquired resistance to SPA. Acquired resistance can be overcome by alternating SPA with the AR inhibitor enzalutamide, which induces adaptive upregulation of AR and re-sensitizes prostate cancer to SPA. This work identifies high AR activity score as a predictive biomarker of response to BAT and supports a new treatment paradigm for prostate cancer involving alternating between AR inhibition and activation
