Comparing oestrogen-responsive genes in endometrial and breast cancer cell lines

ABSTRACT: Up to 80% of endometrial and breast cancers express the oestrogen receptor ERa. Unlike breast cancer, anti-oestrogen therapy has had limited success in endometrial cancer, raising the possibility that oestrogen has different effects in the two cancer types. We investigated the role of oestrogen in endometrial and breast cancers using cell lines and found that oestrogen-responsive genes were predominantly unique between the two cancer types.

APOBEC3B facilitates a functional and necessary link between oestrogen receptor mediated transcription and DNA repair

Project description:Oestrogen receptor-α (ER) is the principal transcription factor in the majority of breast cancers, driving expression of genes that control cell growth and endocrine response. Understanding the mechanisms of ER action is crucial for improving response to endocrine treatments. Recent studies show that cytosine deaminase (CD) activity is an important source of cancer mutations. In particular, APOBEC3B (A3B) promotes mutagenesis in breast cancer cells1. Our analysis of breast cancer expression datasets showed that A3B expression predicts for poor survival in ER-positive, but not in ER-negative patients, indicative of a link with ER activity. Chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled to deep sequencing (ChIP-seq) used to map global A3B binding sites showed a remarkable oestrogen-stimulated recruitment of A3B to ER binding sites. Functionally, A3B was critical for ER transcriptional activity and regulated breast cancer cell proliferation. We show that A3B regulates ER transcription by promoting cytosine deamination and activation of DNA strand break repair at ER binding regions. We propose that cytosine deamination and DNA strand break generation by A3B facilitates gene expression by aiding chromatin remodeling at ER target genes. Our findings also suggest a mechanism by which subversion of transcription factor mediated recruitment of cytosine deaminases promotes cancer mutations.

Transcription profiling of endometrial epithelial cells (EECs) to understand actions of tamoxifen in the uterus and its molecular effectors in endometrial carcinogenesis

Project description:The molecular explanation for tamoxifen serving as a breast cancer treatment but displaying partial estrogenic in the uterus is not known. Previously, we reported that differential promoter context and cofactor recruitment contribute to the tissue specificity of tamoxifen. Here, we investigated the genomic basis for the partial oestrogenic activity of tamoxifen in the endometrium. We showed that tamoxifen not only affects the rate of transcription of oestrogen target genes but also targets a unique set of genes. Since oestrogen and tamoxifen are both able to bind to oestrogen receptors (ERs) and because both promote endometrial carcinogenesis, we hypothesized that the molecular effectors for ERs in endometrial carcinogenesis most likely reside in genes that are commonly targeted by oestrogen and tamoxifen. Among those target genes, we identified a paired-box gene PAX2 that is critically involved in cell proliferation and carcinogenesis in the endometrium. Our experiments also demonstrated that PAX2 is activated by oestrogen and tamoxifen in endometrial carcinomas but not in normal endometrium, and this activation is associated with cancer-linked hypomethylation of the PAX2 promoter. Experiment Overall Design: each experiment repeat 2 times.

ERa profiling in human breast tumors reveals high inter-patient heterogeneity with enrichment of risk SNPs and enhancer activity at most-conserved regions [Hi-C]

Project description:Estrogen Receptor alpha (ERa) is the main driver of luminal breast cancer development and progression, and represents the main drug target in patient care. ERa chromatin binding has been extensively studied in breast cancer cell lines and a number of human tumors, often focused on differential binding patterns between groups or conditions. However, little is known about the inter-tumor heterogeneity of ERa chromatin action. Here, we use a large set of ERa ChIP-seq data from 70 ERa+ breast cancers (40 women and 30 men) to explore general inter-patient heterogeneity in ERa DNA binding in breast cancers. We found a total universe of 84,565 and 101,653 ERa sites in females and males respectively, with merely 1.2% and 5% of sites shared in at least half of the tumors analyzed, reflecting a high level of inter-patient heterogeneity. This heterogeneity was found to be most variable at putative enhancers as opposed to promoter regions, potentially reflecting a level of functional redundancy in enhancer action. Interestingly, commonly shared ERa sites showed the highest estrogen-driven enhancer activity, as determined using a massive parallel reporter assay, and were most-engaged in long-range chromatin interactions. In addition, the most-commonly shared ERa-occupied enhancers were found enriched for breast cancer risk SNP loci. We experimentally illustrate such SNVs can impact chromatin binding potential for ER and its pioneer factor FOXA1. Finally, in the TCGA breast cancer cohort, we could confirm these variations to associate with differences in expression for the target gene. Cumulatively, our data reveal a natural hierarchy of ERa-chromatin interactions in breast cancers within a highly heterogeneous inter-tumor ERa landscape, with the most-common shared regions being most active and affected by germline functional risk SNPs for breast cancer development.

Genome-wide reprogramming of the chromatin landscape underlies endocrine therapy resistance in breast cancer

Project description:The estrogen receptor alpha (ERa) drives the growth of two-thirds of all breast cancers. Endocrine therapy impinges on estrogen-induced ERa activation to block tumor growth. However, half of ERa-positive breast cancers are tolerant or acquire endocrine therapy resistance. Here we demonstrate that breast cancer cells undergo genome-wide reprogramming of their chromatin landscape, defined by epigenomic maps and chromatin openness, as they acquire resistance to endocrine therapy. This reveals a role for the Notch pathway while excluding classical ERa signaling. In agreement, blocking Notch signaling, using gamma-secretase inhibitors, or targeting its downstream gene PBX1 abrogates growth of endocrine therapy-resistant breast cancer cells. Moreover Notch signaling through PBX1 directs a transcriptional program predictive of tumor outcome and endocrine therapy response.
