Project description:Heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) is a key regulator of transcriptional responses to proteotoxic stress. It has been recently linked to signaling of estrogen via ESR1. To study the cooperation of HSF1 and ESR1 in the transcriptional response to estrogen, we established estrogen receptor (ER)-positive breast cancer cell lines with reduced HSF1 levels using specific shRNA or CRISPR/Cas9 approach. HSF1 deficiency led to the inhibition of the mitogenic effect of estrogen in MCF7 and T47D cells. RNA-seq analyses revealed that the stimulatory effect of E2 on the transcriptome was smaller in HSF1-deficient MCF7 cells. This could partially result from the higher basal expression of E2-dependent genes in these cells as a consequence of the enhanced binding of unliganded ESR1 to chromatin, which was revealed by ChIP-seq analyses. Thus, we postulate that some fraction of ESR1 could be released from the inhibitory complex with HSP90 and gain transcriptional competence without E2-stimulation.

Project description:Sustained expression of the estrogen receptor-α (ESR1) drives two-thirds of breast cancer and defines the ESR1-positive subtype. ESR1 engages enhancers upon estrogen stimulation to establish an oncogenic expression program1. Somatic copy number alterations involving the ESR1 gene occur in approximately 1 % of ESR1-positive breast cancers2–5, suggesting that other mechanisms underlie the persistent expression of ESR1. We report significant enrichment of somatic mutations within the set of regulatory elements (SRE) regulating ESR1 in 7% of ESR1-positive breast cancers. These mutations regulate ESR1 expression by modulating transcription factor binding to the DNA. The SRE includes a recurrently mutated enhancer whose activity is also affected by rs9383590, a functional inherited single-nucleotide variant (SNV) that accounts for several breast cancer risk–associated loci. Our work highlights the importance of considering the combinatorial activity of regulatory elements as a single unit to delineate the impact of noncoding genetic alterations on single genes in cancer.

Project description:Transcriptionally active ESR1 fusions promote endocrine therapy (ET)-resistant growth and metastasis of estrogen receptor-alpha positive (ERα+) breast cancer. Currently, there are no targeted treatment options for tumors harboring active fusions because the ESR1 ligand binding domain (LBD) has been replaced with non-drug binding sequences from the 3’ partner gene. A mass spectrometry (MS)-based Kinase Inhibitor Pulldown Assay (KIPA) demonstrated an increase of multiple receptor tyrosine kinases including RET in T47D cells expressing active ESR1 fusions. Integrated proteogenomics defined tumor subsets that could be responsive to RET and CDK4/6 directed therapy from 22 biologically heterogeneous ERα+ patient-derived xenograft (PDX) tumors. Inhibition of RET by repurposing an FDA-approved drug significantly suppressed ESR1 fusion-driven growth of cell, PDX-derived organoid (PDXO) and PDX models. CDK4/6 inhibitor treatment showed similar tumor reductions to RET inhibition. Here, we reveal therapeutic kinase vulnerabilities in ESR1 fusion-driven tumors, which will lay the framework for future clinical trials.

Project description:Three quarters of all breast cancer cases express the estrogen receptor (ER, ESR1 gene), which promotes tumor growth and constitutes a direct target for endocrine therapies. ESR1 mutations have been implicated in therapy resistance in metastatic breast cancers, in particular to aromatase inhibitors. ESR1 mutations promote constitutive ER activity and affect other signaling pathways, allowing cancer cells to proliferate by employing mechanisms within and outwith direct regulation by the ER. Although subjected to extensive genetic and transcriptomic analyses, understanding of protein alterations remains poorly investigated. Towards this, we employed an integrated mass spectrometry (MS) based proteomic approach to profile the protein and phosphoprotein differences in breast cancer cell lines expressing the frequent Y537N and Y537S ER mutations. Global proteome analysis revealed enrichment of mitotic and immune signaling pathways in ER mutant cells, while phosphoprotein analysis evidenced enriched activity of proliferation associated kinases, in particular CDKs and MTOR. Integration of protein expression and phosphorylation data revealed pathway-dependent discrepancies (motility vs proliferation) that were observed at varying degrees across mutant and wt ER cells. Additionally, protein expression and phosphorylation patterns, while under different regulation, still recapitulated the estrogen-independent phenotype of ER mutant cells.
