Transcription profiling of human ER negative cells response to estradiol-ERbeta and estradiol-ERbeta ERE binding defective mutant

ABSTRACT: In addition to the estrogen responsive element (ERE)-dependent gene expression, E2-ERbeta regulates transcription through functional interactions with transfactors bound to their cognate regulatory elements on DNA, hence the ERE-independent signaling pathway. However, the relative importance of the ERE-independent pathway in E2-ERbeta signaling is unclear. Our studies in infected ER-negative cell models with an ERbeta mutant (ERbetaDBD) that functions exclusively at the ERE-independent pathway demonstrated that genomic responses assessed by microarrays from the ERE-independent pathway to E2-ERbeta are not sufficient to alter cellular growth, death or motility. These findings suggest that the ERE-dependent pathway is the canonical E2-ERbeta signaling in model cell lines. Experiment Overall Design: Cells were infected with the recombinant adenovirus bearing no cDNA (CMV) or a cDNA for ERbeta, or cDNA for ERbeta mutant defective in binding to ERE (ERbDBD). for 48 hours. Infected cells were then treated with 1 nM Estradiol 17beta for 6h. All experiments were repeated six independent times conducted at at six different days

Project description:We are using ACI and BN rats, which differ markedly in their susceptibility to 17beta-Estradiol (E2)-induced mammary cancer, to identify genetic variants and environmental factors that determine mammary cancer susceptibility. The objective of this study was to characterize the cellular and molecular responses to E2 in the mammary glands of ACI and BN rats to identify qualitative and quantitative phenotypes that associate with and/or may confer differences in susceptibility to mammary cancer. Female ACI and BN rats were treated with E2 for 1, 3 or 12 weeks and cell proliferation, apoptosis, differentiation and gene expression were evaluated. The luminal epithelium of ACI rats exhibited a rapid and sustained proliferative response to E2. By contrast, the proliferative response exhibited by the mammary epithelium of BN rats was restrained and transitory. Moreover, the epithelium of BN rats appeared to undergo differentiation in response to E2, as evidenced by production of milk proteins as well as luminal ectasia and associated changes in the extracellular matrix (ECM). Marked differences in expression of genes that encode proteins with well-defined roles in mammary gland development (Pgr, Wnt4, Tnfsf11, Prlr, Stat5a, Areg, Gata3), differentiation and milk production (Lcn2, Spp1), regulation of extracellular environment (Mmp7, Mmp9), and cell-cell or cell-ECM interactions (Cd44, Cd24, Cd52) were observed. We propose that these cellular and molecular phenotypes are heritable and may underlie, at least in part, the differences in mammary cancer susceptibility exhibited by ACI and BN rats. Two groups of 17beta-estradiol treated female rats were compared. Five ACI and five BN rats were treated with 17beta-estradiol for 12 weeks. Total RNA was isolated from the mammary glands of these animals, labeled, and hybridized to Affymetrix Rat Genome 230 2.0 Arrays (Affymetrix Inc.). Significantly differentially expressed genes were found between these groups.
