NRIP1 is activated by C-JUN/C-FOS and activates the expression of PGR, ESR1 and CCND1 in luminal A breast cancer.

ABSTRACT: Using chip array assays, we identified differentially expressed genes via a comparison between luminal A breast cancer subtype and normal mammary ductal cells from healthy donors. In silico analysis confirmed by western blot and immunohistochemistry revealed that C-JUN and C-FOS transcription factors are activated in luminal A patients as potential upstream regulators of these differentially expressed genes. Using a chip-on-chip assay, we identified potential C-JUN and C-FOS targets. Among these genes, the NRIP1 gene was revealed to be targeted by C-JUN and C-FOS. This was confirmed after identification and validation with transfection assays specific binding of C-JUN and C-FOS at consensus binding sites. NRIP1 is not only upregulated in luminal A patients and cell lines but also regulates breast cancer-related genes, including PR, ESR1 and CCND1. These results were confirmed by NRIP1 siRNA knockdown and chip array assays, thus highlighting the putative role of NRIP1 in PGR, ESR1 and CCND1 transcriptional regulation and suggesting that NRIP1 could play an important role in breast cancer ductal cell initiation.

Project description:Decidualization of the uterine mucosa drives the maternal adaptation to invasion by the placenta. Appropriate depth of placental invasion is needed to support a healthy pregnancy; shallow invasion is associated with the development of severe preeclampsia (sPE). Maternal contribution to sPE through failed decidualization is an important determinant of placental phenotype. However, the molecular mechanism underlying the in vivo defect linking decidualization to sPE is unknown. Global RNA sequencing was applied to obtain the transcriptomic profile of endometrial biopsies collected from nonpregnant women who suffer sPE in a previous pregnancy and women who did not develop this condition. Samples were randomized in two cohorts, the training and the test set, to identify the fingerprinting encoding defective decidualization in sPE and its subsequent validation. Gene Ontology enrichment and an interaction network were performed to deepen in pathways impaired by genetic dysregulation in sPE. Finally, the main modulators of decidualization, estrogen receptor 1 (ESR1) and progesterone receptor B (PGR-B), were assessed at the level of gene expression and protein abundance. Here, we discover the footprint encoding this decidualization defect comprising 120 genes-using global gene expression profiling in decidua from women who developed sPE in a previous pregnancy. This signature allowed us to effectively segregate samples into sPE and control groups. ESR1 and PGR were highly interconnected with the dynamic network of the defective decidualization fingerprint. ESR1 and PGR-B gene expression and protein abundance were remarkably disrupted in sPE. Thus, the transcriptomic signature of impaired decidualization implicates dysregulated hormonal signaling in the decidual endometria in women who developed sPE. These findings reveal a potential footprint that could be leveraged for a preconception or early prenatal screening of sPE risk, thus improving prevention and early treatments.

Project description:BackgroundThe purpose of this study was to assess the concordance of real-time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) detection of ESR1, PGR, ERBB2, and MKi67 messenger RNA (mRNA) in breast cancer tissues with central immunohistochemistry (IHC) in women treated within the prospective, randomized Austrian Breast and Colorectal Cancer Study Group (ABCSG) Trial 6.Patients and methodsWe evaluated ESR1, PGR, ERBB2, and MKi67 mRNA expression by Xpert® Breast Cancer STRAT4 (enables cartridge-based RT-qPCR detection of mRNA in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues) and estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), and Ki67 protein expression by IHC [in situ hybridization (ISH) for HER2 IHC 2+] in 1115 surgical formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded specimens from patients of ABCSG Trial 6. Overall percent agreement (concordance), positive percent agreement (sensitivity), and negative percent agreement (specificity) between STRAT4 and IHC were determined for each marker. The primary objective of the study was concordance between STRAT4 mRNA measurements of ESR1, PGR, ERBB2, and MKi67 with central reference laboratory IHC (and ISH for HER2 IHC 2+ cases). Time to distant recurrence was analyzed by Cox models.ResultsAll performance targets for ER, PR, and Ki67 were met. For HER2, the negative percent agreement target but not the positive percent agreement target was met. Concordance between STRAT4 and IHC was 98.9% for ER, 89.9% for PR, 98.2% for HER2, and 84.8% for Ki67 (excluding intermediate IHC 10%-20% staining). In univariable and multivariable Cox regression analyses, all four biomarkers tested by either STRAT4 RT-qPCR or by central IHC (ISH) had a comparable time to distant recurrence indicating similar prognostic value.ConclusionsWith the exception of HER2, we demonstrate high concordance between centrally assessed IHC and mRNA measurements of ER, PR, and Ki67 as well as a high correlation of the two methods with clinical outcome. Thus, mRNA-based assessment by STRAT4 is a promising new tool for diagnostic and therapeutic decisions in breast cancer.
