Project description:AR binding in prostate cancer cell lines VCaP and VCS2
Project description:We investigated the composition of chromatin protein network around endogenous androgen receptor (AR) in VCaP castration resistant prostate cancer cells using recently developed chromatin-directed proteomic approach called ChIP-SICAP . The androgen-induced AR chromatin protein network contained expected TFs, e.g. HOXB13, chromatin remodeling proteins, e.g. SMARCA4, and several novel candidates not previously associated with AR, e.g. prostate cancer biomarker SIM2. Based on these findings, the role of SMARCA4 and SIM2 was further characterized at AR chromatin domains . Silencing of SIM2 altered chromatin accessibility at a similar number of AR-binding sites as SMARCA4, an established ATPase subunit of the BAF chromatin remodeling complex, often aberrantly expressed in prostate cancer. Despite the wide co-occurrence on chromatin of SMARCA4 and AR, depletion of SMARCA4 influenced chromatin accessibility and expression of a restricted set of AR target genes, in particular those involved in cell morphogenetic changes in epithelial-mesenchymal transition. Silencing of SIM2, in turn, affected the expression of a much larger group of androgen-regulated genes, e.g. those involved in cellular responses to external stimuli and steroid hormone stimulus. The silencing also reduced proliferation of VCaP cells and tumor size in chick embryo chorioallantoic membrane assay, further suggesting the importance of SIM2 in the regulation prostate cancer cells.

Project description:Although well characterized as a transcriptional activator, androgen receptor (AR) can also function as a direct transcriptional repressor in prostate cancer cells. The major targets of the AR repressive function are genes mediating DNA synthesis. In this study, we found that AR was recruited to the majority of these DNA synthesis genes and rapidly repressed their transcription. This direct AR mediated repression was enhanced in prostate cancer cells expressing higher levels of AR, and was mediated by recruitment of hypophosphorylated retinoblastoma protein (Rb).

Project description:Androgen receptor (AR) is a transcription factor that plays a central role in the growth and development of the normal prostate and its malignant transformation. More recently, a majority of prostate cancers have been shown to harbor recurrent gene fusions of the androgen-regulated gene, TMPRSS2, to the oncogenic ETS transcription factor ERG. Here we employed chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled to massively parallel sequencing (ChIP-Seq) to explore the genome-wide localization of these transcription factors in human prostate cancer cell lines as well as tissues. Unexpectedly, transcriptional networks emanating from AR and ERG were found to be highly overlapping. Furthermore, AR was found to regulate known 5’ fusion partners in prostate cancer including TMPRSS2, as well as negatively regulating its own expression. While induced by androgen through fusion to TMPRSS2, ERG itself was shown to inhibit AR expression and positively regulate the genomic locus of wild-type ERG, thus revealing multiple levels of molecular cross-talk between AR and ERG. Importantly, androgen-sensitive prostate cancer cells in which ERG is overexpressed are able to proliferate and invade in the absence of androgen. Thus, we dissected the intertwined genomic landscape of two master transcriptional regulators of prostate cancer and suggest a role for ERG in maintaining transcriptional networks necessary for androgen-independent prostate cancer growth. These studies may suggest that future therapies against prostate cancer should target both AR and ERG, rather than AR alone, in order to achieve maximum effectiveness. ChIP_Seq examination of histone modifications and key transcription factors in LNCaP and VCaP prostate cancer cell lines in un-treated, vehicle treated or 10nM R1881 treated conditions. LNCaP ChIP-Seq experiments include samples GSM353609-GSM353618, GSM353625-GSM353628, GSM353633-GSM353635, GSM353641-GSM353644, and GSM353648. VCaP ChIP-Seq experiments include samples GSM353601-GSM353608, GSM353619-GSM353624, GSM353629-GSM353632, and GSM353645-GSM353647. In addition, we performed re-ChIP of AR and ERG in VCaP cells (GSM356767), and examined the effect of ERG knockdown on AR and ERG binding (samples GSM353636-GSM353639). To study ectopic ERG binding we performed ERG ChIP-Seq in stable RWPE+ERG or control cells (samples GSM353649-GSM353650). AR ChIP-Seq was also done in the AR-positive but ETS fusion-negative 22RV1 cells (GSM353640). To further study transcription factor binding and chromatin state we performed ChIP-Seq of AR, ERG, H3K4me3, H3K9me3, H3K27me3 and RNA Pol II in a metastatic prostate tumor tissue (samples GSM353651-GSM353656). To couple the ChIP-Seq experiments with gene expression, we have also done Illumian SAGE-tag profiling in LNCaP cells following androgen treatment for 0, 24 and 48hrs. These DGE experiments correspond to samples GSM353657-GSM353659.
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.
