Project description:In immunosurveillance, bone-derived immune cells infiltrate the tumor and secrete inflammatory cytokines to destroy cancer cells. However, cancer cells have evolved mechanisms to usurp inflammatory cytokines to promote tumor progression. In particular, the inflammatory cytokine, interleukin-1 (IL-1), is elevated in prostate cancer (PCa) patient tissue and serum and promotes PCa bone metastasis. IL-1 also represses androgen receptor (AR) accumulation and activity in PCa cells, yet the cells remain viable; suggesting that IL-1 may also contribute to AR-targeted therapy resistance. Furthermore, IL-1 and AR protein levels negatively correlate in PCa tumor cells. Taken together, we hypothesize that IL-1 reprograms AR positive (AR+) PCa cells into AR negative (AR-) PCa cells that co-opt IL-1 signaling to ensure AR-independent survival in the inflammatory tumor microenvironment. Thus, we employed RNA sequencing to identify pathways that are modulated by IL-1 concomitant with IL-1-induced AR repression in PCa cells. Comparative analysis of sequencing data from the AR+ LNCaP PCa cell line versus the AR- PC3 PCa cell line reveals an IL-1-conferred gene suite in LNCaP cells that is constitutive in PC3 cells, and includes AR and AR target gene repression and the induction of prosurvival, lineage, and cancer stem cell genes. Bioinformatics analysis of the IL-1 regulated gene suite revealed that inflammatory and immune response pathways are primarily elicited; likely facilitating PCa cell survival in an inflammatory tumor microenvironment. Our data supports that IL-1 reprograms AR+ PCa cells to mimic AR- PCa gene expression patterns that favor AR-targeted treatment resistance and cell survival.

Project description:The Androgen Receptor (AR) is the master regulator of Prostate Cancer (PCa) development, and inhibition of AR signalling is the most effective PCa treatment. AR is expressed in PCa cells and also in the PCa-associated stroma, including infiltrating macrophages ). Macrophages play a decisive role in PCa initiation and progression, however, the role of AR in these cells remains largely unexplored. Here we show that AR signalling in macrophage-like THP-1 cell line supports PCa cell line migration and invasion in culture via increased Triggering REceptor of Macrophage-1 (TREM-1) signalling and expression of its downstream cytokines.

Project description:Due to the urgent need of new targeting strategies in PCa, AR interacting proteins should be considered. In this study we aimed to test the effect of a long-term knockdown of NCOA1, an AR coactivator, in PCa progression and metastatogenesis and whether NCOA1 could be used as a possible therapeutic target. To test the consequences of NCOA1 knockdown on proliferation, we performed by 3H thymidine incorporation assays revealing a strong reduction in castration resistant MDA PCa 2b and androgen-dependent LNCaP cells, without affecting AR negative PC3 cells. Furthermore, Boyden chamber assays revealed a strong decrease in migration and invasion upon NCOA1 knockdown. Using a cDNA microarray, we identified protein kinase D1 (PRKD1) as one prominent upregulated gene in MDA PCa 2b, which was not seen in PC3 cells. Knockdown of PRKD1 clearly reverted the reduced migratory potential. Moreover, we found phospholipase A2, group7 (PLA2G7) and eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5A2 (EIF5A2), which might be involved in migration of PC3 cells. Further, we can clearly demonstrate that PRKD1 is negatively regulated by the AR/NCOA1 complex. In addition, immunhistochemical staining revealed a strong increase in NCOA1 expression in matched and unmatched patientsâ samples, respectively between normal prostate and primary tumor. Regarding the PRKD1 staining, no final conclusion can be drawn in terms of a tumor suppressor function. Thus, our findings directly associate NCOA1/AR complex with PRKD1 regulation and further suggest NCOA1 as a potential therapeutic target also due to the effect on PC3 cell migration. Cell lines with a stable knockdown of NCOA1 were generated by lentiviral-based transduction of shRNA vectors. For each of the two cell lines MDA and PC3, gene expression profiles were generated for KO and CTRL samples with 3 biological replicates for each. Differential expression analysis was performed by comparing the gene expression estimates between KO and CTRL samples for each cell line.

Project description:Fibroblasts are abundantly present in the prostate tumor microenvironment (TME), including cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) which play a key role in cancer development. Androgen receptor (AR) signaling is the main driver of prostate cancer (PCa) progression, and stromal cells in the TME also express AR. High‐grade tumor and poor clinical outcome are associated with low AR expression in the TME, which suggests a protective role of AR signaling in the stroma against PCa development. However, the mechanism of this relation is not clear. In this study, we isolated AR‐expressing CAF‐like cells. Testosterone (R1881) exposure did not affect CAF‐like cell morphology, proliferation, or motility. PCa cell growth was not affected by culturing in medium from R1881‐exposed CAF‐like cells; however, migration of PCa cells was inhibited. AR chromatin immune precipitation sequencing (ChIP‐seq) was performed and motif search suggested that AR in CAF‐like cells bound the chromatin through AP‐1‐elements upon R1881 exposure, inducing enhancer‐mediated AR chromatin interactions. The vast majority of chromatin binding sites in CAF‐like cells were unique and not shared with AR sites observed in PCa cell lines or tumors. AR signaling in CAF‐like cells decreased expression of multiple cytokines; most notably CCL2 and CXCL8 and both cytokines increased migration of PCa cells. These results suggest direct paracrine regulation of PCa cell migration by CAFs through AR signaling.

Project description:Background: Breast (BCa) and prostate (PCa) cancers are hormone receptor (HR)-driven cancers. Estrogen receptor alpha (ERa) is overexpressed in 70% of diagnosed BCa patients and androgen receptor (AR) is overexpressed in 80-90% of diagnosed PCa patients. Thus, BCa and PCa patients are given therapy that reduces hormone levels or directly blocks HR activity; but most patients eventually develop treatment resistance. 15-30% of BCa patients and ≥ 30% of PCa patients that acquire treatment resistance develop tumors enriched in cancer cells with low or no HR accumulation. Furthermore, 15-20% of BCa patients and 10-20% of PCa patients are intrinsically HR-negative (HR-), and thus, have intrinsic resistance to therapy. We have previously reported that interleukin-1 (IL-1) inflammatory cytokine downregulates ERa and AR mRNA in HR-positive (HR+) BCa and PCa cell lines. Additionally, we had identified pro-survival proteins and processes upregulated by IL-1 in HR+ BCa and PCa cells, that are basally high in HR- BCa and PCa cells. Therefore, we hypothesize that IL-1 confers a conserved gene expression pattern in HR+ BCa and PCa cells that mimics conserved basal gene expression patterns in HR- BCa and PCa cells, to promote HR-independent survival and tumorigenicity. Methods: To identify changes in global gene expression we performed RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) for HR+ BCa and PCa cell lines exposed to IL-1 and for untreated HR- BCa and PCa cell lines. We confirmed expression patterns of select genes by RT-qPCR and used siRNA and/or drug inhibition to silence select genes in BCa and PCa cell lines. We also compared our gene expression data with publicly available data sets from hormone receptor-independent sublines. Finally, we performed Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) to identify signaling pathways encode by our RNA-seq data set. Results: We identified 350 genes in common between BCa and PCa cells that are induced or repressed by IL-1 in HR+ cells that are, respectively, basally high or low in HR- cells. Among these genes, we identified Sequestome-1 (SQSTM1/p62) and SRY (Sex-Determining Region Y)-Box 9 (SOX9) to be essential for survival of HR- BCa and PCa cell lines. Analysis of publicly available data indicates that p62 and SOX9 expression are elevated in hormone receptor-independent BCa and PCa sublines generated in vitro, suggesting that p62 and SOX9 have a role in acquired treatment resistance. We also assessed HR- cell line viability in response verteporfin, an FDA approved therapy for macular degeneration known to target p62, and we found that verteporfin is cytotoxic for HR- cells lines. Conclusions: Taken together, our 350 gene set can be used to identify novel therapeutic targets and/or biomarkers conserved among acquired (e.g. due to inflammation) or intrinsic hormone receptor-independent BCa and PCa.
