Project description:The transcription factor BACH1 is a master regulator of human breast cancer metastasis. Here we use gene expression array analysis to identify and compare the genes regulated by BACH1 depletion in a metastatic human breast cancer cell line. Total RNAs were extracted from vector control 1833 cells or 1833 cells with shBACH mRNA BACH1 depletion. Affymetrix GeneChip Human Gene 1.0 ST Arrays were performed to detail the gene expression and identify the genes regulated by BACH1in metastatic human breast cancer cells.

Project description:The t(8;21) translocation fuses the DNA binding domain of the hematopoietic master regulator RUNX1 to the ETO protein. The resultant RUNX1/ETO fusion protein is a leukemia-initiating transcription factor that interferes with RUNX1 function. The result of this interference is a block in differentiation and, finally, the development of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). To obtain insights into RUNX1/ETO-dependant alterations of the epigenetic landscape we measured genome-wide RUNX1- and RUNX1/ETO bound regions in t(8;21) cells and assessed to what extent the effects of RUNX1/ETO on the epigenome depend on its continued expression in established leukemic cells. To this end we determined dynamic alterations of histone acetylation, RNA Polymerase II binding and RUNX1 occupancy in the presence or absence of RUNX1/ETO using a knockdown approach. Combined global assessments of chromatin accessibility and kinetic gene expression data show that RUNX1/ETO controls the expression of important regulators of hematopoietic differentiation and self-renewal. We show that selective removal of RUNX1/ETO leads to a widespread reversal of epigenetic reprogramming and a genome-wide re-distribution of RUNX1 binding, resulting in the inhibition of leukemic proliferation and self-renewal and the induction of differentiation. This demonstrates that RUNX1/ETO represents a pivotal therapeutic target in AML.

Project description:We report the high-throughput profiling of histone modification and DNase I hypersensitivity sites in prostate cancer and breaset cancer cells. We found that while AR binding is associated with nucleosome depletion, ER binding is not. We showed that a quantitative measure of DNase I hypersensitivity changes is a powerful tool in indentifying transcription factor cistromes. Examination of histone modification marked nucleosomes and Dnase I hypersensitivity in prostate cancer and breast cancer cells with and without hormone treatment.
