Project description:Expression of estrogen receptor (ESR1) determines whether a breast cancer patient receives endocrine therapy as part of their adjuvant care, but does not guarantee patient response. However, the molecular factors that define endocrine response in ESR1-positive breast cancer patients remain poorly understood. Here, we characterize the DNA methylome of endocrine sensitivity and demonstrate the potential impact of differential DNA methylation on endocrine response in breast cancer. We show that DNA hypermethylation occurs predominantly at estrogen-responsive enhancers and is associated with reduced ESR1 binding and decreased gene expression of key regulators of ESR1-activity; thus providing a novel mechanism by which endocrine response is abated in ESR1-positive breast cancers. Conversely, we delineate that ESR1-responsive enhancer hypomethylation is critical in transition from normal mammary epithelial cells to endocrine responsive ESR1-positive cancer. Cumulatively these novel insights highlight the potential of ESR1-responsive enhancer methylation to both predict ESR1-positive disease and stratify ESR1-positive breast cancer patients as responders to endocrine therapy. Methylation profiling with Illumina's HumanMethylation450K array was performed on ESR1-positive hormone sensitive MCF7 cells, and three different well characterised endocrine resistant MCF7-derived cell lines; tamoxifen-resistant (TAMR), fulvestrant-resistant (FASR) and estrogen deprivation resistant (MCF7X) cells. For each cell line two biological replicates were profiled bringing the number of samples to eight.

Abstract
A type of cancer which originates from the breast tissue is referred to as breast cancer. Globally, it is the most common cause of death in women. Treatments such as radiotherapy, chemotherapy, hormone therapy, immunotherapy, and gene therapy are the main strategies in the fight against breast cancer. The present study aims at investigating the effects of the combined radiotherapy and chemotherapy as a way to treat breast cancer, and different treatment approaches are incorporated into the model. Also, the model is fitted to data on patients with breast cancer in Tanzania. We determine new treatment strategies, and finally, we show that when sufficient amount of chemotherapy and radiotherapy with a low decay rate is used, the drug will be significantly more effective in combating the disease while health cells remain above the threshold.

Project description:In breast cancer models, combination epigenetic therapy with a DNA methyltransferase inhibitor and a histone deacetylase inhibitor led to reexpression of genes encoding important therapeutic targets, including the estrogen receptor (ER). We conducted a multicenter phase II study of 5-azacitidine and entinostat in women with advanced hormone-resistant or triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Purpose: In breast cancer models, combination epigenetic therapy with a DNA methyltransferase inhibitor and a histone deacetylase inhibitor led to re-expression of genes encoding important therapeutic targets including the estrogen receptor (ER). We conducted a multicenter phase II study of 5-azacitidine (AZA) and entinostat in women with advanced hormone-resistant or triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Patients and Methods: Patients received AZA 40 mg/m2 (days 1-5, 8-10) and entinostat 7 mg (days 3,10) of 28 day cycle. Continuation of epigenetic therapy was offered with addition of endocrine therapy at time of progression (optional continuation, OC phase). Primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR) in each cohort. We hypothesized that ORR would be >20% against null of 5% using Simon two-stage design. At least 1 response was required in 1st of 13 patients per cohort to continue accrual to 27 per cohort. Type I error 4%, power 90%. Results: There was one partial response among 27 women with hormone-resistant disease (ORR=4%, 95% CI=0-19%), and none in 13 women with TNBC. One additional partial response was observed in the OC phase in the hormone-resistant cohort (n=12). Mandatory tumor samples were obtained pre- and post-treatment (58% paired) with either up- or down-regulation of ER observed in approximately 50% of post-treatment biopsies in the hormone-resistant, but not TNBC cohort. Conclusion: Combination epigenetic therapy was well tolerated but our primary endpoint was not met. OC phase results suggest that some women benefit from epigenetic therapy and/or reintroduction of endocrine therapy beyond progression but further study is needed.

Project description:Elf5 expression in mammary progenitor cells regulates a cell fate decision that establishes the alveolar cell lineage. In luminal breast cancer cells, increased Elf5 expression suppressed estrogen receptor and FoxA1 expression and was implicated in the acquisition of resistance to the cytostatic effects of antiestrogen therapy. We show that in the PyMT model of luminal breast cancer, increased Elf5 expression drives lung metastasis by recruiting myeloid-‐derived suppressor cells, and that this activity overcomes the epithelializing influence of Elf5. Breast cancer expression signatures identify a similar process in humans, and increased Elf5 immunohistochemical staining predicts poor prognosis in the luminal A subgroup. Thus Elf5 may promote escape from hormonal therapy and drive metastasis in luminal breast cancer.

Project description:Combined menopausal hormone therapy is associated with increased breast cancer risk in postmenopausal women. In our previous studies, progesterone receptor membrane component 1 (PGRMC1) was shown to play a role in progestins’ mode of action, resulting in enhanced proliferation of breast cancer cells. Here we describe a potential mechanism by which PGRMC1 contributes to breast cancer progression via interaction with prohibitins, inhibiting their function as transcription factor repressors, thereby facilitating estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) transcriptional activity and enhancing oncogenic signaling upon treatment with certain progestins, such as norethisterone and dydrogesterone.

Project description:Oestrogen receptor-α (ER) is the principal transcription factor in the majority of breast cancers, driving expression of genes that control cell growth and endocrine response. Understanding the mechanisms of ER action is crucial for improving response to endocrine treatments. Recent studies show that cytosine deaminase (CD) activity is an important source of cancer mutations. In particular, APOBEC3B (A3B) promotes mutagenesis in breast cancer cells1. Our analysis of breast cancer expression datasets showed that A3B expression predicts for poor survival in ER-positive, but not in ER-negative patients, indicative of a link with ER activity. Chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled to deep sequencing (ChIP-seq) used to map global A3B binding sites showed a remarkable oestrogen-stimulated recruitment of A3B to ER binding sites. Functionally, A3B was critical for ER transcriptional activity and regulated breast cancer cell proliferation. We show that A3B regulates ER transcription by promoting cytosine deamination and activation of DNA strand break repair at ER binding regions. We propose that cytosine deamination and DNA strand break generation by A3B facilitates gene expression by aiding chromatin remodeling at ER target genes. Our findings also suggest a mechanism by which subversion of transcription factor mediated recruitment of cytosine deaminases promotes cancer mutations. Hormone-depleted MCF-7 breast cancer cell line was treated with estrogen (100 nM), H2O2 (10 mM) or vehicle for 45 minutes. H2AX ChIP-seq was performed using Illumina methodology.

Project description:Standard cancer therapy targets tumor cells while not considering the possible collateral damage on the tumor microenvironment that could impair therapy response. Employing patient-derived tumor organoids and primary stroma cells or a novel murine rectal cancer model, we show that tumor cell-derived IL-1a polarizes cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) towards a pro-inflammatory phenotype causing an elevated oxidative DNA damage mediated by reactive nitrogen species (NOS) and subsequently sensitizing iCAFs to a p53-mediated therapy-induced senescence, which triggers changes in matrisome composition culminating in chemoradiotherapy resistance and disease progression. Consequently, IL-1 inhibition, prevention of iCAF senescence or senolytic therapy sensitizes mice to irradiation. Importantly, rectal cancer patients with poor response to radiotherapy are characterized by an increased number of CAFs, a dominant inflammatory CAF gene signature as well as lower IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1RA) serum levels. Low baseline IL1RA gene expression predicts poor outcome while IL-1RA serum levels are associated with a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in IL1RA (rs4251961 T/C). Moreover, conditioned supernatant from patient tumor organoids sensitizes fibroblasts to undergo radiation-induced senescence in an IL-1-dependent manner. Collectively, we unravel a critical role for inflammatory CAFs in cancer therapy and identify IL-1 signaling as an attractive target for stroma-repolarization and prevention of CAF senescence.
