Project description:Postnatal development of the uterus involves specification of undifferentiated epithelium into uterine-type epithelium. That specification is regulated by stromal-epithelial interactions as well as intrinsic cell-specific transcription factors and gene regulatory networks. This study utilized mouse genetic models of Esr1 deletion, endometrial epithelial organoids (EEO), and organoid-stromal co-cultures to decipher the role of Esr1 in uterine epithelial development. Organoids derived from wild-type (WT) mice developed a normal single layer of columnar epithelium. In contrast, EEO from Esr1 null mice developed a multilayered stratified squamous type of epithelium with basal cells. Co-culturing Esr1 null epithelium with WT uterine stromal fibroblasts inhibited basal cell development. Of note, estrogen treatment of EEO-stromal co-cultures and Esr1 conditional knockout mice increased basal epithelial cell markers. Collectively, these findings suggest that Esr1 regulates uterine epithelium lineage plasticity and homeostasis and loss of ESR1 promotes altered luminal-to-basal differentiation driven by ESR1-mediated paracrine factors from the stroma.

Project description:Estrogens stimulate hypertrophy and hyperplasia in the uterus and exert their activity through estrogen receptor α (ERα). A uterine epithelial ERα conditional knockout mouse model (Wnt7aCre+;Esr1f/f or cKO) demonstrated that ERα in the epithelial cells was dispensable for an early uterine proliferative response to 17β-estradiol (E2), but required for subsequent uterine biological responses. We compared the gene expression profile in the uterus after E2 treatment in the cKO samples with WT samples. We found that approximately 25% of the genes differentially expressed at 2 h were epithelial ERα independent, as they were preserved in the cKO, indicating they are mediated from the stroma and sufficient to promote initial proliferative responses. However, more than 90% of the differentially expressed transcripts at 24 h were absent in the cKO, indicating the majority of later transcriptional regulation required epithelial ERα and suggesting the loss of regulation of these later transcripts results in the blunted growth response 3 days after treatment. These transcription profiles correlate with our previous biological responses, in which the initial proliferative response is independent of epithelial ERα but dependent on stromal ERα, yet epithelial ERα is essential for subsequent tissue responsiveness. These analyses are now allowing for in vivo determination of the cell specific actions of ERα in the female reproductive tract.

Project description:Estrogen improves insulin sensitivity and increases energy expenditure, contributing to sexual dimorphism regarding type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) susceptibility. Estrogen receptor α (ERα) plays a crucial role in mediating estrogen action on glucose and energy homeostasis. However, the underlying mechanisms remain incompletely understood. Here, we found a ligand-independent effect of ERα on the regulation of glucose homeostasis and identified an ERα-derived peptide as a potential insulin sensitizer. Deficiency of ERα but not ERβ in the liver impaired glucose homeostasis in male, female, and ovariectomized (OVX) female mice. Mechanistic studies revealed that ERα promoted hepatic insulin sensitivity by suppressing ubiquitination-induced IRS1 degradation. The ERα 1-280 domain mediated the ligand-independent effect of ERα on insulin sensitivity. Furthermore, we designed a peptide based on ERα 1-280 domain and found that ERα-derived peptide interacted with IRS1, increased IRS1 stability through suppressing its ubiquitination, and enhanced insulin sensitivity. Importantly, administration of ERα-derived peptide into obese mice significantly increased insulin sensitivity, attenuated glucose intolerance, and improved serum lipid profiles. These findings pave the way for the therapeutic intervention of T2DM by targeting the ligand-independent effect of ERα and indicate that ERα-derived peptide is a potential insulin sensitizer for the treatment of T2DM.

Project description:Estrogen receptors play critical roles in both the normal physiological, and disease states of numerous tissues, including breast and uterus. Estrogen receptor alpha (ER) can activate or repress the expression of target genes upon estrogen stimulation. In order to better understand the transcriptional network of ER in breast and uterus, we generated genome wide maps ofM-BM- ER binding sites (ERBS) and gene expression profiles in breast cancer cells (MCF7 and T47D) and uterine cancer cells (ECC1 and Ishikawa) through ChIP-Seq and microarray techniques. Surprisingly, we identified large scale differences in the numbers of ERBS between these cell lines when treated with E2 (17-M-NM-2 estradiol). Besides identification of common and unique ERBS between breast and uterine cancer cell types., our data also suggest that both cell types could recruit a large set of common co-operating transcription factors (Co-TFs) and a few unique Co-TFs as well. Besides the genes that are commonly regulatedM-BM- between the different cell lines, there are a number of genes that are differentially regulated in different cell types. Gene pathway analyses of E2 target genes suggest that ER regulates many biological pathways and processes in both tissue-type dependent and independent manners. Our results showed that cell lines derived from same tissue display a greater similarity for both profiles of ERBS and gene expression, and that the differential profiles of ER and preferential recruitment of some Co-TFs are the main determinants for the differential regulation of E2 signaling in breast and uterine cancer cells. In order to explore common and distinctive features of ERM-NM-1 (estrogen receptor alpha) binding profiles between breast and uterus, we generated eight ChIP-Seq libraries for the four cell lines (MCF7, T47D, ECC1 and Ishikawa) under two different treatments (E2, ethanol). In addition, we generated four control libraries for the four cell lines. For all treatment libraries, we generated about 7-12 million unique tags each. ER antibody catalog number is (Santa Cruz,sc-543).

Project description:At birth, all female mice, including those that either lack estrogen receptor α (ERα-knockout) or that express mutated forms of ERα (AF2ERKI), have a hypoplastic uterus. However, uterine growth and development that normally accompanies pubertal maturation does not occur in ERα-knockout or AF2ERKI mice, indicating ERα mediated estrogen signaling is essential for this process. Mice that lack Cyp19 (aromatase, ArKO mice), an enzyme critical for estrogen (E2) synthesis, are unable to make E2, and lack pubertal uterine development. A single injection of E2 into ovariectomized adult (10 weeks old) females normally results in uterine epithelial cell proliferation, however, we observe that, although ERα is present in the ArKO uterine cells, no proliferative response is seen. We assessed the impact of exposing ArKO mice to E2 during pubertal and post-pubertal windows and observed that E2 exposed ArKO mice acquired growth responsiveness. Analysis of differential gene expression between unexposed ArKO samples and samples from animals exhibiting the ability to mount an E2-induced uterine growth response (WT or E2 exposed ArKO) revealed activation of EZH2 and HAND2 signaling and inhibition of GLI1 responses. EZH2 and HAND2 are known inhibit uterine growth, and GLI1 is involved in IHH signaling, which is a positive mediator of uterine response. Finally, we show that exposure of ArKO females to dietary phytoestrogens results in their acquisition of uterine growth competence. Altogether our findings suggest that pubertal levels of endogenous and exogenous estrogens impact biological function of uterine cells later in life via ERα-dependent mechanisms. We compared uterine RNA from ovariectomized adult aromatase knockout mice (ARKO) mice that were untreated to WT mice and to ARKO that were administered estradiol benzoate (EB) to induce uterine epithelial cell growth competence
