Project description:Higher levels of aneuploidy, characterized by imbalanced chromosome numbers, are associated with lethal progression in prostate cancer. However, how aneuploidy contributes to prostate cancer aggressiveness remains poorly understood. In this study, we assessed in patients which genes on chromosome 8q, one of the most frequently gained chromosome arms in prostate tumors, were most strongly associated with long-term risk of cancer progression to metastases and death from prostate cancer (lethal disease) in 403 patients and found the strongest candidate was cohesin subunit gene, RAD21, with an odds ratio of 3.7 (95% CI 1.8, 7.6) comparing the highest vs. lowest tertiles of mRNA expression and adjusting for overall aneuploidy burden and Gleason score, both strong prognostic factors in primary prostate cancer. Studying prostate cancer driven by the TMPRSS2-ERG oncogenic fusion, found in about half of all prostate tumors, we found that increased RAD21 alleviated toxic oncogenic stress and DNA damage caused by oncogene expression. Data from both organoids and patients indicate that increased RAD21 thereby enables aggressive tumors to sustain tumor proliferation, and more broadly suggests one path through which tumors benefit from aneuploidy.

Project description:Deregulation of the Androgen Receptor (AR) transcriptional network is a common hallmark in prostate cancers. To achieve its precise transcriptional role, AR needs to co-operate specifically with a plethora of cofactors. In prostate cancers, AR transcription collaborators are frequently aberrantly over-expressed, altering the AR signaling pathway to one that promotes oncogenesis. Recently, the prostate cancer recurrent fusion gene, ERG, was shown to promote tumor progression by acting as a repressor of AR signaling. However, the exact mechanics and the functional consequences associated with this crosstalk between ERG and AR still remains relatively unknown. Interestingly, through chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled with massively parallel sequencing, we discover that ERG and other commonly over-expressed transcriptional co-repressors (HDAC1, HDAC2, HDAC3 and EZH2) are wired into an AR-centric transcriptional network via a spectrum of distal enhancers and/or proximal promoters. We show that ERG represses several AR target genes involved in epithelial differentiation. Furthermore, we demonstrated that suppression of the androgen-induced gene, Vinculin, by ERG and histone deacetylases increases cancer cell invasiveness. From our results, we propose that ERG, histone deactelyases and the histone methyltransferase, EZH2, could impede epithelial differentiation and contribute to prostate cancer progression, in part through modulating the transcriptional output of AR. Genome-wide binding analysis of AR, ERG, HDAC1, HDAC2, HDAC3 and EZH2 in VCaP with and without DHT (dihydrotestosterone) stimulation using ChIP-Seq. 15 samples including 1 control (input).

Project description:<p>Molecularly-targeted therapies for advanced prostate cancer include castration modalities that suppress ligand-dependent transcriptional activity of the androgen receptor (AR). However, persistent AR signaling undermines therapeutic efficacy and promotes progression to lethal castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), even when patients are treated with potent second-generation AR-targeted therapies abiraterone and enzalutamide. Here we define diverse AR genomic structural rearrangements (AR-GSRs) as a class of molecular alterations occurring in one third of CRPC-stage tumors. AR-GSRs occur in the context of copy-neutral and amplified AR and display heterogeneity in breakpoint location, rearrangement class, and sub-clonal enrichment in tumors within and between patients. Despite this heterogeneity, one common outcome in tumors with high sub-clonal enrichment of AR-GSRs is outlier expression of diverse AR variant species lacking the ligand binding domain and possessing ligand-independent transcriptional activity. Collectively, these findings reveal AR-GSRs as important drivers of persistent AR signaling in CRPC.</p>

Project description:PIM1 is an oncogenic serine/threonine kinase that promotes and maintains prostate
tumorigenesis. To more fully understand the mechanism by which PIM1 promotes oncogenesis,
we performed a chemical genetic screen to identify direct PIM1 substrates in prostate cancer
cells. To identify PIM1 substrates and their phosphorylation sites in LNCaP cells, we coupled a
chemical genetic screen with a peptide capture, mass spectrometry (MS)-based approach. We
mutated the PIM1 gatekeeper residue in the ATP binding site to accept a bulky ATP analog. By
using an ATP analog labeled with a thiol group on the gamma-phosphate, we were able specifically
label PIM1 substrates even in the presence of other cellular kinases.

Project description:The TMPRSS2-ERG gene fusion is the most frequent alteration observed in human prostate cancer but its role in disease progression is still debated. In this study, we uncovered a novel molecular mechanism promoting progression in ERG-fusion positive prostate cancer. We show that ERG is methylated by Enhancer of zest homolog 2 (EZH2) at a specific lysine residue (K362) located within the internal auto-inhibitory domain. Mechanistically, K362 mono- methylation prevents intra-domain interactions, favors DNA binding and promotes ERG transcriptional and oncogenic activity in cellular and mouse models. Consistently with the involvement in ERG oncogenesis, we found that K362 methylation was associated with disease progression in ERG transgenic mouse models and was enhanced by PTEN deficiency and AKT activation, which promoted EZH2 substrate switching from histone H3K27 to ERG. Conversely, EZH2 inhibition blocked ERG methylation along with ERG-induced transcriptional and phenotypic reprogramming in cell cultures and ERG/PTEN mice. We found that ERG and EZH2 co-occupy several genomic regions forming prevalently co-activating complexes. The network of ERG/EZH2 co-regulated target genes was enriched of functionally aggressive features and was associated preferentially with concomitant ERG gain and PTEN loss, castration-resistance and adverse clinical outcome in prostate cancer patients. Collectively, these findings identify ERG methylation as a novel post-translational modification sustaining disease progression in ERG-positive prostate cancers. Our data also provide an attractive rationale for developing molecularly targeted therapeutics to antagonize ERG oncogenic activity.
