Project description:Estrogen receptorï? beta (ER beta) has potent anti-proliferative and anti-inflammatory properties, suggesting that ER beta-selective agonists might be a new class of therapeutic and chemopreventative agents. To understand how ER beta regulates genes, we identified genes regulated by the unliganded and liganded forms of ER alpha and ER beta in U2OS cells. Microarray data demonstrated that virtually no gene regulation occurred with unliganded ER alpha, whereas many genes were regulated by estradiol (E2). These results demonstrate ER alpha requires a ligand to regulate a single class of genes. In contrast, ER beta regulated three classes of genes. Class I genes were regulated primarily by unliganded ER beta. Class II genes were regulated only with E2, whereas Class III genes were regulated by both unliganded ER beta and E2. There were 453 Class I genes, 258 Class II genes and 83 Class III genes. To explore the mechanism whereby ER beta regulates different classes of genes ChIP-seq was performed to identify ER beta binding sites and adjacent transcription factor motifs in regulated genes. AP1 binding sites were more enriched in Class I genes, whereas ERE, NFKB1 and SP1 sites were more enriched in class II genes. ER beta bound to all three classes of genes demonstrating that ER beta binding is not responsible for differential regulation of genes by unliganded and liganded ER beta. The coactivator, NCOA2 was differentially recruited to several target genes. Our findings indicate that the unliganded and liganded forms of ER beta regulate three classes of genes by interacting with different transcription factors and coactivators. U2OS cell lines are stably transfected with a doxycycline-inducible ER alpha or beta. 18 samples are analyzed with triplicate for each of the 6 conditions. The 6 conditions include ER alpha transfected without doxycycline added, ER alpha transfected with doxycycline added, ER alpha transfected with doxycycline added and E2 treatment, ER beta transfected without doxycycline added, ER beta transfected with doxycycline added, and ER beta transfected with doxycycline added and E2 treatment.

Project description:Genome wide analysis of ER beta in U2OS cells
Project description:We performed ChIP seq experiment in MDA-MB-134 cell line in order to map the estrogen receptor alpha (ER) binding sites following the estrogen treatment in an ILC model. We have characterized the genome wide recruit of ER and scaned the binding sites for the presence of cofactor motifs. The binding peaks were also correlated to E2 regulated genes in this ILC model.
Project description:Estrogens are steroid hormones that play critical roles in the initiation, development, and metastasis of breast and uterine cancers. The estrogen (E2) response in breast cancer cells is predominantly mediated by the estrogen receptor-alpha (ER alpha), a ligand-activated transcription factor. ER alpha regulates transcription of target genes through direct binding to its cognate recognition sites, known as estrogen response elements (EREs), or by modulating the activity of other DNA-bound transcription factors at alternative DNA sequences. The proto-oncogene c-myc is upregulated by ER¦à in response to E2 and encodes a transcription factor, c-MYC, which regulates a cascade of gene targets whose products mediate cellular transformation. This study aims at mapping the binding sites of these two transcription factors (ER alpha and c-MYC) in one ER alpha positive breast cancer cell line (MCF7 cell line). Keywords: ChIP-Chip Analysis This series contains ChIP-on-Chip data sets for two transcription factors (ER alpha and c-MYC) and control samples (INPUT). All the experiments are done in triplicates. MCF7 Cells were E2-deprived for 3 days and then were treated with 10 nM E2 (45 minutes and 2 hours for mapping ER alpha and c-MYC binding sites, respectively) at 80% confluence.
Project description:This experiment investigates the functional roles of estrogen receptor alpha and beta in peripheral blood leukocytes by using selective estrogen receptor agonists. The agonists that are used are estradiol (E2), the selective ER-alpha agonist PPT (4,4',4''-(4-Propyl-[1H]-pyrazole-1,3,5-triyl)trisphenol) and the selective ER-beta agonist DPN (2,3-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)-propionitrile).
Project description:We performed ChIP seq experiment in MDA-MB-134 cell line in order to map the estrogen receptor alpha (ER) binding sites following the estrogen treatment in an ILC model. We have characterized the genome wide recruit of ER and scaned the binding sites for the presence of cofactor motifs. The binding peaks were also correlated to E2 regulated genes in this ILC model. Four samples were subjected to high throughput sequencing: E-ER (estrogen treated followed by ER IP), E-IgG (estrogen treated followed by IgG), V-ER (EtOH treated followed by ER IP) and Input (MCF7 genomic DNA)
