Regulation of mammary luminal cell differentiation and tumorigenesis by p38α

ABSTRACT: Mammary stem and progenitor cells are essential for mammary gland homeostasis and are also candidates for cells of origin of mammary tumors. Here, we provide evidence that the protein kinase p38a is required for the differentiation of luminal progenitor cells through modulation of the transcription factors Runx1 and Foxa1. Moreover, using a mouse model for breast cancer initiated by luminal cells, we show that p38a downregulation in mammary epithelial cells reduces tumorigenesis, which correlates with reduced numbers of tumor-initiating cells. Our results identify p38a as a key regulator of luminal progenitor cell fate that facilitates mammary tumor formation.

Microarray expression profiling study of Runx1-null and wild type luminal mammary epithelial cells

Project description:RUNX1 encodes a RUNX family transcription factor (TF) and was recently identified as a novel mutated gene in human luminal breast cancers. We found that Runx1 is expressed in all subpopulations of murine mammary epithelial cells (MECs) except the secretory alveolar luminal cells. Conditional knockout of Runx1 in MECs by MMTV-Cre led to a decrease in luminal MECs, largely due to a profound reduction in the estrogen receptor (ER)-positive mature luminal subpopulation, a phenotype that could be rescued by loss of either Trp53 or Rb1. Mechanistically RUNX1 represses Elf5, a master regulatory TF gene for alveolar cells, and activates Foxa1, a key mature luminal TF gene involved in the ER program. Collectively, our data identified a key regulator of the ER+ luminal lineage whose disruption may contribute to development of ER+ luminal breast cancer when under the background of either TP53 or RB1 loss. Thoracic and inguinal mammary glands from 3 MMTV-Cre;Runx1L/L;R26Y and 3 MMTV-Cre;Runx1+/+;R26Y adult virgin females were dissected out, minced and digested to single cell suspension. Runx1L is the floxed conditional knockout allele of Runx1. R26Y is a conditional YFP reporter that would be turned on upon Cre-mediated recombination. FACSaria machine was used to sort out the YFP-marked luminal epithelial cell population of each of these 6 mice. Total RNA was isolated with Qiagen RNeasy kit and subsequently amplified by Nugen V2 and applied to Affymetrix mouse genome 430 2.0 arrays.

A Runx1-enhancer element eR1 identified lineage restricted mammary luminal stem cells

Project description:Mammary gland homeostasis is maintained by adult tissue stem-progenitor cells residing within the luminal and basal epithelia. Dysregulation of mammary stem cells is a key mechanism for cancer development. However, stem cell characterization is challenging because reporter models using cell-specific promoters do not fully recapitulate the mammary stem cell populations. We previously found that a 270-basepair Runx1 enhancer element, named eR1, marked stem cells in the blood and stomach. Here, we identified eR1 activity in a rare subpopulation of the ERα-negative luminal epithelium in mouse mammary glands. Lineage-tracing using an eR1-CreERT2 mouse model revealed that eR1+ luminal cells generated the entire luminal lineage and milk-secreting alveoli – eR1 therefore specifically marks lineage-restricted luminal stem cells. eR1-targeted-conditional knockout of Runx1 led to the expansion of luminal epithelial cells, accompanied by elevated ERα expression. Our findings demonstrate a definitive role for Runx1 in the regulation of the eR1-positive luminal stem cell proliferation during mammary homeostasis. Our findings identify a mechanistic link for Runx1 in stem cell proliferation and its dysregulation in breast cancer. Runx1 inactivation is therefore likely to be an early hit in the cell-of-origin of ERα+ luminal type breast cancer.

Transcription profiling of human primitive bipotent and committed luminal progenitor cells as well as mature luminal and myoepithelial cells from normal mammary tissue

Project description:Highly purified subpopulations of primitive bipotent and committed luminal progenitor cells as well as mature luminal and myoepithelial cells from normal human mammary tissue were isolated and compared their transcriptomes obtained using the Affymetrix GeneChip Human X3P Array. Experiment Overall Design: 12 Afffymetrix array hybridizations were performed on RNA samples extracted from highly purified subpopulations of primitive bipotent and committed luminal progenitor cells as well as mature luminal and myoepithelial cells isolate from 3 different normal human mammary tissue.

Tumor Suppressor Role for the c-Myb Oncogene in Luminal Breast Cancer

Project description:The transcription factor c-Myb has been well characterized as an oncogene in several human tumor types, and its expression in the hematopoietic stem/progenitor cell population is essential for proper hematopoiesis. However, the role of c-Myb in mammopoeisis and breast tumorigenesis is poorly understood, despite its high expression in the majority of breast cancer cases (60-80%). We find that c-Myb high expression in human breast tumors correlates with the luminal/ER+ phenotype and a good prognosis. RNAi knock-down of endogenous c-Myb levels in the MCF7 luminal breast tumor cell line increases tumorigenesis both in vitro and in vivo, suggesting a tumor suppressor role in luminal breast cancer. We created a mammary-derived c-Myb expression signature and found it to be highly correlated with a published mature luminal mammary cell signature and least correlated with a mammary stem/progenitor lineage gene signature. These data describe, for the first time, a tumor suppressor role for the c-Myb proto-oncogene in breast cancer that has implications for understanding luminal tumorigenesis and for guiding treatment. refXsample

The ets transcription factor ELF5 suppresses the estrogen sensitive phenotype and contributes to antiestrogen resistance in luminal breast cancer. [mouse]

Project description:The ets transcription factor ELF5 specifies the differentiation of mammary progenitor cells to establish the milk-secreting lineage. ER- and poor prognosis basal breast cancers arise from this progenitor cell and these cancers express high levels of Elf5. Knockdown of ELF5 expression in basal breast cancer cell lines, or forced expression in luminal breast cancer cell lines, resulted in reduced cell proliferation. Transcript profiling and chromatin immunoprecipitation revealed that the transcriptional activity of ELF5 specified the gene expression patterns that distinguish basal from luminal breast cancer, including suppression of FOXA1, GATA3 and ER, key estrogen-action genes. Tamoxifen treatment of luminal MCF7 cells upregulated Elf5 expression and cells that acquired resistance to Tamoxifen became dependent on ELF5 for proliferation. ELF5 is a regulator of breast cancer cell proliferation, transcriptionally specifies the basal molecular subtype and is utilised by ER+ breast cancer cells to escape proliferative arrest caused by Tamoxifen. Elf5 was induced via doxycycline treated PyMT mouse tumours, in triplicate

Development of mammary luminal progenitor cells is controlled by the transcription factor STAT5A

Project description:Mammary alveologenesis is abrogated in the absence of the transcription factors STAT5A/5B that mediate cytokine signaling. To reveal the underlying causes for this developmental block we studied mammary stem and progenitor cells. While loss of STAT5A/5B did not affect the stem cell population and their ability to form mammary ducts, luminal progenitors were greatly reduced and unable to form alveoli during pregnancy. Temporally-controlled expression of transgenic STAT5A in mammary epithelium lacking STAT5A/5B restored the luminal progenitor population and rescued alveologenesis in a reversible fashion in vivo. Taken together, STAT5A is necessary and sufficient for the establishment of luminal progenitor cells. The mammary tissues from two mice of each genotype were collected 6 days (sample 9 and 11 were WT)
