Project description:Combination therapy with estrogen and a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) is a promising approach to safely alleviate important side effects related to estrogen deficiency in women at high risk for breast cancer. Data related to endometrial safety of estrogen+SERM co-therapies are limited, however. The primary goal of this study was to evaluate the endometrial profile of low-dose E2 and Tam alone and in combination. In this study 16 postmenopausal female cynomolgus macaques were randomized to receive placebo, low-dose micronized estradiol (E2, 0.25 mg/1800 kcal), the SERM tamoxifen (Tam, 20 mg/1800 kcal), or E2+Tam in a parallel-arm design. Endometrial samples were collected after 4 months of treatment and used for microarray analysis.

Project description:To investigate molecular mechanisms of resistance, we used two different in vivo xenograft models of estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer, with or without HER2 over-expression (MCF7/HER2-18 and MCF7 wt, respectively). Mice with established tumors were assigned to the following treatment groups: continued estrogen supplementation (E2), estrogen deprivation (ED), ED plus tamoxifen (Tam), all with or without the EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor gefinitinib (G). Another group received ED plus the antiestrogen fulvestrant (MCF7 wt only). Tumors with acquired or de novo resistance to these endocrine therapies were profiled for mRNA expression using Affymetrix Genechip arrays. Experiment Overall Design: MCF7 xenografts were established in ovariectomized five to six week-old nu/nu athymic nude mice supplemented with 0.25 mg 21 day release estrogen pellets by inoculating subcutaneously (s.c.) 5E-6 cells. When tumors reached the size of 150-200 mm3 (3-5 weeks), the animals were randomly allocated to continued estrogen (E2), continued estrogen with gefitinib (E2+G; 100mg/kg, 5 days/week), estrogen withdrawal alone (ED; by removal of the estrogen pellets), and estrogen withdrawal plus tamoxifen citrate (Tam; 500 microg/animal s.c. in peanut oil, 5 days/week), with either gefitinib (Tam+G; 100mg/kg, 5 days/week) or vehicle (1% Tween 80) administered via gavage, as well as estrogen withdrawal plus fulvestrant (ICI 182,780) in the MCF7 wt model (Fulv; 5mg/mouse s.c. once weekly), and estrogen withdrawal with gefitinib (ED+G). Tumors were harvested for molecular studies when they became resistant to treatment and reached the size of 1000 mm3 (n=7).

Project description:The goal of this study was to identify a set of hepatic genes regulated by ligand-dependent activation of the estrogen receptor in juvenile rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) that can serve as a biomarker of estrogen exposure. A custom rainbow trout oligo DNA microarray, which contains probes targeting approximately 1450 genes relevant to carcinogenesis, toxicology, endocrinology and stress physiology was utilized to identify transcriptional “fingerprints” of in vivo dietary exposure to 17β-estradiol (E2), tamoxifen (TAM), estradiol + tamoxifen (E2+TAM), diethylstilbestrol (DES), dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), dihydrotestosterone (DHT) and cortisol (CORT). Estrogen exposure altered the expression of up to 49 genes involved in reproduction, immune response, cell growth, transcriptional regulation, protein synthesis and modification, drug metabolism, redox regulation and signal transduction. E2, DES and DHEA regulated 18 genes in common, mostly those associated with vitellogenesis, cell proliferation and signal transduction. Interestingly, DHEA uniquely regulated several complement component genes of importance to immune response. While the effect of TAM on E2-induced changes in gene expression was mostly antagonistic, TAM alone increased expression of VTG1 and other genes associated with egg development and immune response. Few genes responded to CORT treatment, and DHT significantly altered expression of only one gene targeted by the OSUrbt array. Hierarchical cluster and principal components analyses revealed distinct patterns of gene expression corresponding to estrogens and non-estrogens, though unique patterns could also be detected for individual chemicals. A set of estrogen-responsive genes has been identified that can serve as a biomarker of environmental exposure to xenoestrogens.

Project description:Treatment with the breast cancer drug tamoxifen confers a risk of developing uterine tumors or other endometrial pathologies. Tamoxifen is a selective estrogen receptor modulator, which demonstrates tissue-specific activity although the mechanisms remain poorly understood. Both estradiol and tamoxifen act as estrogen agonists on the human uterus, and therefore have the potential to promote carcinogenicity. Estradiol and tamoxifen elicit cellular responses via the estrogen receptors (ER), which are involved in multiple signalling pathways. The effects at the molecular level are further influenced by the differential recruitment of co-factors and the presence of specific promoter motifs in target genes. In this study, ER positive (+) Ishikawa cells are used as a model to investigate the overall effect of treatment with either 17b-estradiol or 4-hydroxytamoxifen on the gene expression profiles. Ishikawa cells were serum-starved for 72 hours prior to treatment with 10-8M 17b-estradiol (E2) or 10-6M 4-hydroxytamoxifen (tam) for 24 or 48 hours. Cells were collected for total RNA extraction, and the quality and quantity of the RNA was determined spectrophotometrically. cDNA was prepared from treated (tam or E2) and control (vehicle only) Ishikawa cells, and was both forward and reverse labelled using Cy-3 dUTP/ Cy-5 dUTP and hybridised to oligo microarray slides representing >19,000 human genes (MRC HGMP-RFC). The data were analysed using GenePix Pro 3.0 software (Axon instruments) and statistical analyses applied to select significant gene changes (p<0.05).

Project description:<p><strong>INTRODUCTION:</strong> Postmenopausal hormone use is linked to several health outcomes and the risk associated with some may differ depending on whether estrogen is used alone or in combination with progestin.</p><p><strong>OBJECTIVE:</strong> Metabolomic analyses of postmenopausal hormone use and differences between hormone regimes was carried out to identify metabolites associated with each type of hormone treatment.</p><p><strong>METHODS:</strong> Untargeted metabolomics analysis was carried out on serum from 1,336 women enrolled in the Cancer Prevention II Nutrition Cohort. Levels of 781 named metabolites were compared between 667 nonusers with 332 estrogen-only and with 337 estrogen plus progestin users using linear regression. Metabolite levels were also compared between estrogen-only and estrogen plus progestin users.</p><p><strong>RESULTS:</strong> Compared to nonusers, 276 metabolites were statistically significantly (P<6.40 x 10-5) associated with estrogen-only use and 222 were associated with estrogen plus progestin use. The metabolites associated with both types of hormones included numerous lipids, acyl carnitines, and amino acids as well as the thyroid hormone thyroxine and the oncometabolite fumarate. The 65 metabolites that differed significantly between estrogen-only and estrogen plus progestin users included 19 steroids and 12 lipids that contained the bioactive fatty acid arachidonic acid.</p><p><strong>CONCLUSIONS:</strong> These findings suggest that postmenopausal hormone use influences metabolic pathways linked to a variety of cellular processes, including the regulation of metabolism and stress responses, energy production, and inflammation. The differential association of numerous lipids that could influence cellular signaling suggests that differences in signal transduction may contribute to the disparate risks for some diseases between estrogen-only and estrogen plus progestin users.</p>

Project description:NCoR1 (Nuclear receptor Co-Repressor) and SMRT (Silencing Mediator of Retinoid and Thyroid hormone receptor) are well-recognized coregulators of nuclear receptor (NR) action. However, their unique roles in the regulation of thyroid hormone (TH) signaling in specific cell types have not been determined. To accomplish this we generated a mouse model that lacked function of either NCoR1 or SMRT or both in the liver only. Despite both corepressors being present in the liver, SMRT had no ability to regulate TH signaling when deleted in either euthyroid or hypothyroid animals. In contrast, disruption of NCoR1 action confirmed that it is the principal mediator of TH sensitivity in vivo. While SMRT played little role in TH signaling alone, when disrupted in combination with NCoR1 it greatly accentuated the activation of hepatic lipogenesis regulated by NCoR1. Thus, corepressor specificity exists in vivo and NCoR1 is the principal regulator of TH action in the liver. However, both NCoR1 and SMRT collaborate to control hepatic lipogenesis and lipid storage, which likely reflects their cooperative activity in regulating the action of multiple NRs including the thyroid hormone receptor (TR). RNA was extracted from livers from 3 individual mice for each group (Double-floxed, Liver specific-SMRT knock out, and Liver specific-double knock out); all were euthyroid, female mice
