ARSD, a novel ERα downstream target gene, inhibits proliferation and migration of breast cancer cells via activating Hippo/YAP pathway.

ABSTRACT: Advanced breast cancer (BC), especially basal like triple-negative BC (TNBC), is a highly malignant tumor without viable treatment option, highlighting the urgent need to seek novel therapeutic targets. Arylsulfatase D (ARSD), localized at Xp22.3, is a female-biased gene due to its escaping from X chromosome inactivation (XCI). Unfortunately, no systematic investigation of ARSD on BC has been reported. In this study, we observed that ARSD expression was positively related to ERα status either in BC cells or tissue specimens, which were associated with good prognosis. Furthermore, we found a set of hormone-responsive lineage-specific transcription factors, FOXA1, GATA3, ERα, directly drove high expression of ARSD through chromatin looping in luminal subtype BC cells. Opposingly, ARSD still
