MED12 Mutation Activates Tryptophan-Kynurenine-AHR pathway and Promotes Cell Growth in Human Uterine Leiomyoma [RNA-seq]

Project description:Uterine leiomyoma (LM) is the most common tumor in women. Estrogen and progesterone, via their receptors ERα and PR, play essential roles in LM growth. Mediator complex subunit 12 (MED12) mutations occur in 70% of all LM and are thought to drive tumor growth in a steroid hormone-dependent manner; however, the mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we performed ChIP-seq (ERα, PR, and MED12) and RNA-seq on LM expressing mutant MED12 (mut-MED12) or wild-type MED12 and matched myometrium. Mut-MED12 altered PR and chromatin interaction landscapes, with significant PR-binding site loss in proximal promoter regions in mut-MED12 LM. Integration of cistrome and transcriptome data identified tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase (TDO2) as a PR and MED12 target gene, which was aberrantly upregulated in mut-MED12 LM. Kynurenine, the catabolic product of TDO2, was significantly elevated in mut-MED12 LM. Tryptophan or kynurenine treatment of primary LM cells activated the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) pathway, increased cell proliferation, and inhibited apoptosis; blocking the TDO2-kynurenine-AHR pathway by siRNA knockdown or pharmacologic inhibition abolished these effects. Mut-MED12 LM cells showed higher sensitivity to these treatments. These findings suggest that activation of the TDO2-kynurenine-AHR pathway in mut-MED12 LM induces tumor growth, and may inform the development of targeted treatments and precision medicine in LM.
