Project description:The androgen receptor (AR) mediates the action of androgens by binding to androgen-responsive elements (AREs) and subsequently regulating target genes involved in prostate carcinogenesis. The precise locations, true nature, and functional roles of AREs in human prostate cancer are still unknown. Here we redefine AREs by motif-resolution AR chromatin immunoprecipitation-exonuclease (ChIP-exo) assay in human prostate cancer cells and tumors. Surprisingly, we find that, in addition to canonical full-length AREs and half-site-like AREs, a significant portion of the four redefined ARE categories comprises non-canonical full-length AREs. The redefined AREs in enhanced AR binding regions in prostate tumors versus paired non-malignant adjacent tissues regulate a prostate cancer-relevant gene network not only centered on AR, but more interestingly, on novel AR target genes mTOR, BIRC5 and BCL2L1 involved in prostate cancer cell growth and survival. The precise redefinition of AREs has important implications for understanding how AR contributes to prostate carcinogenesis. FOXA1 ChIP-exo

The precise redefinition of AREs has important implications for understanding how AR contributes to prostate carcinogenesis. To examine the differential AR binding in LNCaP cells before and after androgen stimulation, ChIP-Seq of androgen receptor is performed in LNCaP cells under the two conditions. To profile histone modification status in control LNCaP cells, MNase-Seq is performed with five different antibodies specific to certain histone marks. Each experiment includes two replicates.

Project description:Androgen receptor (AR) signalling pathway plays an important role in carcinogenesis and development of prostate cancer. The involvement of microRNA (miRNA) in this process is still largely unknown. In this study, we performed a matched miRNA-mRNA time-course expression profiling to reveal androgen response in hormone-sensitive prostate cancer cells.We introduced novel statistics Response Score (RS) and Modulation Score (MS) to identify significant androgen-regulated target genes and miRNA-modulated target mRNAs. Based on the analysis, we found several novel androgen-regulated targets, which had significant androgen response in expression pattern, and were highly enriched in predicted androgen responsive elements (AREs). AR-bindings to these AREs were validated with ChIP assay. Furthermore, a set of target mRNAs involved in crucial processes of tumor progression were identified to be significantly regulated by these miRNAs. Therefore, a miRNA-mediated androgen signalling network was inferred, including three novel feedback mechanisms for AR self-modulation. In conclusion, our study provides new approaches to further miRNA regulation research and contributes novel findings into miRNA-mediated pathological effects in prostate cancer. Total RNA obtained from androgen dihydrotestosterone (DHT) subjected to LNCaP cells in vitro at 20min, 40min, 1h, 2h, 4h, 8h, 16h, 24h and 48h, compared to the control at 0h.

Project description:Although the vital role of the androgen receptor (AR) has been well demonstrated in primary prostate cancers, its role in the androgen-insensitive prostate cancers still remains unclear. Here, we used a small hairpin RNA approach to directly assess AR activity in prostate cancer cells. Reduction of AR expression in the two androgen-sensitive prostate cancer cell lines, LNCaP and LAPC4, significantly decreased AR-mediated transcription and cell growth. Intriguingly, in two androgen-insensitive prostate cell lines, LNCaP-C42B4 and CWR22Rv1, knockdown of AR expression showed a more pronounced effect on AR-induced transcription and cell growth than androgen depletion. Using cDNA microarrays, we also compared the transcriptional profiles induced by either androgen depletion or AR knockdown. Although a significant number of transcripts appear to be regulated by both androgen depletion and AR knockdown, we observed a subset of transcripts affected only by androgen depletion but not by AR knockdown, and vice versa. Finally, we demonstrated a direct role for AR in promoting tumor formation and growth in a xenograft model. Taken together, our results elucidate an important role for the AR in androgen-insensitive prostate cancer cells, and suggest that AR can be used as a therapeutic target for androgen-insensitive prostate cancers.

Project description:In castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), clinical response to androgen receptor (AR) antagonists is limited mainly due to AR-variants expression and restored AR signaling. The metabolite spermine is most abundant in prostate and it decreases as prostate cancer progresses, but its functions remain poorly understood. Here, we show spermine inhibits full-length androgen receptor (AR-FL) and androgen receptor splice variant 7 (AR-V7) signaling and suppresses CRPC cell proliferation by directly binding and inhibiting protein arginine methyltransferase PRMT1. Spermine reduces H4R3me2a modification at the AR locus and suppresses AR binding as well as H3K27ac modification levels at AR target genes. Spermine supplementation restrains CRPC growth in vivo. PRMT1 inhibition also suppresses AR-FL and AR-V7 signaling and reduces CRPC growth. Collectively, we demonstrate spermine as an anticancer metabolite by inhibiting PRMT1 to transcriptionally inhibit AR-FL and AR-V7 signaling in CRPC, and we indicate spermine and PRMT1 inhibition as powerful strategies overcoming limitations of current AR-based therapies in CRPC.
