Project description:Exogenous glucocorticoids are frequently used to treat inflammatory disorders and as adjuncts in solid cancers. However, their use is associated with severe side effects and therapy resistance. Novel glucocorticoid receptor (GR) ligands with a patient-validated reduced side effect profile have not yet reached the clinic. GR is a member of the nuclear receptor family of transcription factors and heavily relies on interactions with coregulator proteins for its transcriptional activity. To elucidate the role of the GR interactome in the altered transcriptional activity of GR following treatment with agonists, antagonists or lead selective GR agonists and modulators (SEGRAMs), we generated comprehensive interactome maps by high-confidence proximity proteomics in lung epithelial carcinoma cells. We found that the GR antagonist RU486 and the SEGRAM Dagrocorat both reduced GR interaction with CREB-binding protein (CBP)/p300 and the mediator complex compared to the full agonist Dexamethasone. Our data offer new insights into the role differential coregulator protein recruitment in shaping specific GR-mediated transcriptional responses.

Project description:HGU133+2.0 Microarray on TNBC cells (MDA-MB-231) treated for 4, 8, or 12h with vehicle, 100nM dexamethasone, 100nM Dex/100nM Mifepristone, or 100nM Dex/100nM CORT108297 Purpose: Although high glucocorticoid receptor (GR) expression in early-stage estrogen receptor (ER)-negative breast cancer (BC) is associated with shortened relapse-free survival (RFS), how associated GR transcriptional activity contributes to aggressive BC behavior is not well understood. Using potent GR antagonists and primary tumor gene expression data, we sought to identify a tumor-relevant gene signature based on GR activity that would be more predictive than GR expression alone. Design: Global gene expression and GR ChIP-sequencing were performed to identify GR-regulated genes inhibited by two chemically distinct GR antagonists, mifepristone and CORT108297. Differentially expressed genes from MDA-MB-231 cells were cross-evaluated with significantly expressed genes in GR-high versus GR-low ER-negative primary BCs. The resulting subset of GR targeted genes was analyzed in two independent ER-negative BC cohorts to derive and then validate the GR activity signature (GRsig). Results: Gene expression pathway analysis of glucocorticoid-regulated genes (inhibited by GR antagonism) revealed cell survival and invasion functions. GR ChIP-seq analysis demonstrated that GR antagonists decreased GR chromatin association for a subset of genes. A GRsig comprised of n=74 GR activation-associated genes (also reversed by GR antagonists) was derived from an adjuvant chemotherapy-treated Discovery cohort and found to predicted probability of relapse in a separate Validation cohort (HR=1.9; p= 0.012). Conclusions: The GRsig discovered herein identifies high-risk ER-negative/GR-positive BCs most likely to relapse despite administration of adjuvant chemotherapy. Because GR antagonism can reverse expression of these genes, we propose that addition of a GR antagonist to chemotherapy may improve outcome of these high-risk patients.

Project description:We report the androgen receptor recruitment to the chromatin of androgen responsive prostate cancer cell lines, LNCaP-1F5 and VCaP in response to physiological androgen 5a-dihydrotestosterone (DHT) using ChIP-sequencing. We compare the AR recruitment by DHT to that by partial agonist/antagonist cyproterone acetate (CPA), mifepristone (RU486) and bicalutamide (Bica) in LNCaP-1F5 cells. We also report the role of glucocorticoid receptor recruitment in presence of dexamethasone (Dex) in androgen responsive prostate cancer cells. The AR and GR cistrome analysis is subsequently compared with gene expression data and RNA Pol II analysis. The ChIP-seq has been performed using AR, GR, RNA Pol II antibodies. Examination of AR and GR binding sites in LNCaP-1F5 and VCaP cells in presence of DHT and Dex respectively. Further analysis of AR binding sites in LNCaP-1F5 cells treated with partial agonist/antagonists, CPA, RU486 and Bica. Additionally RNA Pol II mapping is performed in cells treated with DHT and Dex.

Project description:The glucocorticoid receptor (GR) is a ubiquitously expressed transcription factor that controls metabolic and homeostatic processes essential for life. Although numerous crystal structures of the GR ligand-binding domain (GR-LBD) have been reported, the functional oligomeric state of the full-length receptor, which is essential for its transcriptional activity, remains disputed. Here we present five new crystal structures of agonist-bound GR-LBD, along with a thorough analysis of previous structural work. Biologically relevant homodimers were identified by studying a battery of GR point mutants including crosslinking assays in solution and quantitative fluorescence microscopy in live cells. Our results highlight the relevance of non-canonical dimerization modes for GR, especially of contacts made by loop L1-3 residues such as Tyr545. Our work unveils likely pathophysiologically relevant quaternary assemblies of the nuclear receptor with important implications for glucocorticoid action and drug design.

Project description:Long-term glucocorticoid treatment in multiple myeloma is hampered by deleterious side effects. Glucocorticoids bind to the glucocorticoid receptor (GR), which is a crucial drug target because its activation triggers myeloma cell death. The mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) is a closely related nuclear receptor but its impact on glucocorticoid responsiveness in myeloma is unknown. Here we reveal a functional crosstalk between GR and MR that culminates in improved myeloma cell killing. We show that the GR agonist Dexamethasone (Dex) downregulates MR levels in a GR-dependent way in myeloma cells. Co-treatment of Dex with the MR antagonist Spironolactone enhances Dex-induced cell killing in (primary) myeloma cells. The crosstalk is further evidenced by an endogenous interaction between GR and MR in myeloma cells that is ligand-inducible and by a distinctive gene expression profile. Our study demonstrates that GR-MR crosstalk is therapeutically relevant in myeloma and presents a glucocorticoid-based dose-reduction strategy that could diminish glucocorticoid-related side effects in patients.

Project description:Muscle fibers have the capacity to modulate their size in response to hormones, including glucocorticoids. Their effects are mediated by the ubiquitously expressed glucocorticoid receptor (GR). However, GR-mediated transcriptional regulation in skeletal muscle at physiological glucocorticoid levels remains elusive. Our study reveals an increased expression of numerous anabolic factors in GR-deficient myofibers, and a reduced expression of antianabolic factors, leading to fiber hypertrophy. Genome-wide analyses demonstrate that myofiber GR controls broad gene networks by binding to glucocorticoid response elements (GREs) at enhancers. Moreover, we provide topological and molecular insights into the chromatin landscape of GR-controlled genes in myofibers. We demonstrate that cooperative binding of GR with the transcription factors Myod1 and Foxf2 in enhancer regions, in collaboration with Nrf1 at promoters, plays a key role in the negative regulation of muscle mass. Thus, these results open new perspectives to counteract muscle weakness in various diseases.

Project description:The glucocorticoid receptor (GR) is a crucial drug target in multiple myeloma as its activation with glucocorticoids effectively triggers myeloma cell death. However, as high-dose glucocorticoids are also associated with deleterious side effects, novel approaches are urgently needed to improve GR’s action in myeloma. Here we reveal a functional crosstalk between GR and the mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) that culminates in improved myeloma cell killing. We show that the GR agonist Dexamethasone (Dex) downregulates MR levels in a GR-dependent way in myeloma cells. Co-treatment of Dex with the MR antagonist Spironolactone (Spi) enhances Dex-induced cell killing in primary, newly diagnosed GC-sensitive myeloma cells, while in a relapsed GC-resistant setting, Spi alone induces distinct myeloma cell killing. On a mechanistic level, we find that a GR-MR crosstalk is arising from an endogenous interaction between GR and MR in myeloma cells. Quantitative dimerization assays show that Spi reduces Dex-induced GR-MR heterodimerization and completely abolishes Dex-induced MR MR homodimerization but leaves GR-GR homodimerization intact. Unbiased transcriptomics further reveals that c-myc and many of its target genes are downregulated most by Dex and Spi combined, while proteomics analyses identify that several metabolic hallmarks are modulated most by this combination treatment. Finally, we identified a subset of Dex+Spi downregulated genes and proteins that may predict prognosis in the CoMMpass patient cohort. Our study demonstrates that GR-MR crosstalk is therapeutically relevant in myeloma as it provides novel strategies towards glucocorticoid-based dose-reduction.

Project description:A mutation in the dimerization domain of the mouse glucocorticoid receptor (GR), dim1, has recently been shown to bind DNA and regulate gene expression. To expand these studies we created a stable osteosarcoma (U-2 OS) cell line expressing four mutations in the dimerization domain of the human GR, dim4 (N454D, A458T, R460D, D462C), and used whole human genome microarray analysis to compare differences in gene regulation between vehicle treated (CON) and those treated with the glucocorticoid receptor agonist dexamethasone (DEX) at 100nM concentration for 6 hours.

Project description:Agonists for the nociceptin/orphanin FQ opioid peptide NOP receptor, a member of the opioid receptor family, are under active investigation as novel analgesics, but their modes of signaling are less well characterized than those for other members of the opioid receptor family. Therefore, we investigated whether different NOP receptor ligands show differential signaling or functional selectivity at the NOP receptor. Using newly developed phosphosite-specific antibodies to NOP receptor, we found that agonist-induced NOP receptor phosphorylation occurred primarily at four carboxyl-terminal serine (S) and threonine (T) residues, namely Ser346, Ser351, Thr362 and Ser363, and proceeded with a temporal hierarchy, with Ser346 as the first site of phosphorylation. G protein-coupled receptor kinases 2 and 3 (GRK2/3) cooperated during agonist-induced phosphorylation, which in turn facilitated NOP receptor desensitization and internalization. A comparison of structurally distinct NOP receptor agonists revealed dissociation in functional efficacies between G protein-dependent signaling and receptor phosphorylation. Furthermore, in vivo, in NOP-eGFP and NOP-eYFP mice, NOP receptor agonists induced multisite phosphorylation and internalization in a dose-dependent and agonist-selective manner that could be blocked by specific antagonists. Together, our study provides novel tools to study ligand-activated NOP receptor signaling in vitro and in vivo. Differential agonist-selective NOP receptor phosphorylation by chemically diverse NOP receptor agonists suggests that differential signaling by NOP receptor agonists may play a role in NOP receptor ligand pharmacology.

Project description:The glucocorticoid receptor (GR) recruits many coregulators via the well characterized AF2 interaction surface in the GR ligand binding domain, but LIM domain coregulator Hic-5 binds to the relatively uncharacterized tau2 activation domain in the hinge region of GR. Requirement of Hic-5 for glucocorticoid-regulated gene expression in U2OS osteosarcoma cells was defined by Hic-5 depletion and global gene expression analysis. Hic-5 depletion had selective and dramatic effects, positive and negative, on both activation and repression of GR target genes. For some hormone-induced genes, Hic-5 facilitated recruitment of the Mediator complex and RNA polymerase II. In contrast, many genes were not regulated by hormone until Hic-5 was depleted. On these genes Hic-5 acted at a very early step of the regulatory process, preventing efficient GR binding on enhancers, chromatin remodeling, and thus preventing glucocorticoid-driven transcriptional regulation. Overall, Hic-5 has selective and diverse roles on GR target genes, functioning as coactivator on some genes and corepressor on others, and either facilitating or opposing the glucocorticoid-driven actions of GR. Hic-5 exhibits multiple mechanisms of action, either regulating GR binding to DNA and chromatin remodeling, or facilitating later steps in transcription complex assembly. We investigate the relationship between GR and Hic5 and identify classes of genes that respond differently when cells are induced with hormone and when Hic5 is knocked down We knock down Hic-5 (TGFB1I1) in U2OS cells using siRNA (siHic5_2) along with nonspecific siRNA (shNS) and assay gene expression changes at 4 different time points of hormone treatment. We also include non-infected control (NI) as a second control at each time point.
