Allele-specific gene regulation, phenotypes, and therapeutic vulnerabilities in estrogen receptor alpha mutant endometrial cancer (ChIP-Seq)

ABSTRACT: Activating estrogen receptor alpha (ER) mutations are present in primary endometrial and metastatic breast cancers, promoting estrogen-independent activation of the receptor. Functional characterizations in breast cancer have established unique molecular and phenotypic consequences of the receptor, yet the impact of ER mutations in endometrial cancer has not been fully explored. In this study, we used CRISPR-Cas9 to model the clinically prevalent ER-Y537S mutation and compared results to ER-D538G to discover allele-specific differences between ER mutations in endometrial cancer. We found that constitutive activity of mutant ER resulted in changes in the expression of thousands of genes, stemming from combined alterations to ER binding and chromatin accessibility. The unique gene expression programs resulted in ER mutant cells developing increased cancer associated phenotypes, including migration, invasion, anchorage independent growth, and growth in vivo. To uncover potential treatment strategies, we identified ER associated proteins via Rapid Immunoprecipitation and Mass Spectrometry of Endogenous Proteins (RIME) and interrogated two candidates, CDK9 and NCOA3. Inhibition of these regulatory protein resulted in decreased growth and migration, representing potential novel treatment strategies for ER mutant endometrial cancer. Taken together, this study provides insight into ER mutant activity in endometrial cancer and identifies potential therapies for women with ER mutant endometrial cancer.

Estrogen-independent molecular actions of mutant estrogen receptor alpha in endometrial cancer [RNA-seq]

Project description:Estrogen receptor alpha (ESR1) mutations have been identified in hormone therapy resistant breast cancer and primary endometrial cancer. Analyses in breast cancer suggests that mutant ESR1 exhibits estrogen independent activity. In endometrial cancer, ESR1 mutations are associated with worse outcomes and less obesity, however experimental investigation of these mutations has not been performed. Using a unique CRISPR/Cas9 strategy, we introduced the D538G mutation, a common endometrial cancer mutation that alters the ligand binding domain of ESR1, while epitope tagging the endogenous locus. We discovered estrogen-independent mutant ESR1 genomic binding that is significantly altered from wildtype ESR1. The D538G mutation impacted expression, including a large set of non-estrogen regulated genes, and chromatin accessibility, with most affected loci bound by mutant ESR1. Mutant ESR1 is unique from constitutive ESR1 activity as mutant-specific changes are not recapitulated with prolonged estrogen exposure. Overall, D538G mutant ESR1 confers estrogen-independent activity while causing additional regulatory changes in endometrial cancer cells that are distinct from breast cancer cells.

ETV4 is necessary for estrogen signaling and growth in endometrial cancer cells [RNA-seq]

Project description:Estrogen signaling through estrogen receptor alpha (ER) plays a major role in endometrial cancer risk and progression; however, the molecular mechanisms underlying ER’s regulatory role in endometrial cancer are poorly understood. In breast cancer cells, ER genomic binding is enabled by FOXA1 and GATA3, but the transcription factors that control ER genomic binding in endometrial cancer cells remain unknown. We previously identified ETV4 as a candidate factor controlling ER genomic binding in endometrial cancer cells and here we explore the functional importance of ETV4. Homozygous deletion of ETV4, using CRISPR/Cas9, led to greatly reduced ER binding at the majority of loci normally bound by ER. Consistent with the dramatic loss of ER binding, the gene expression response to estradiol was dampened for most genes. ETV4 contributes to estrogen signaling in two distinct ways; ETV4 loss impacts chromatin accessibility at some ER bound loci and impairs ER nuclear translocation. The diminished estrogen signaling upon ETV4 deletion led to decreased growth, particularly in 3D culture where hollow organoids were formed. Our results show that ETV4 plays a necessary role in estrogen signaling in endometrial cancer cells.

Modeling the ESR1 tyrosine 537 mutation with CRISPR-Cas9 for mechanistic studies and evaluation of therapeutic approaches for metastatic breast cancer [ChIP-Seq]

Project description:Estrogen receptor-Î± (ERÎ±) is an important driver of breast cancer and is the target for hormonal therapies, anti-estrogens and drugs that limit estrogen biosynthesis (aromatase inhibitors). Mutations in the ESR1 gene identified in metastatic breast cancer provide a potential mechanism for acquired resistance to hormone therapies. We have used CRISPR-Cas9 mediated genome editing in the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line, generating MCF-7-Y537S. MCF-7-Y537S cells encode a wild-type (tyrosine 537) and a mutant (serine 537) allele. Growth of the line is estrogen-independent and expression of ERÎ± target genes is elevated in the absence of estrogen. ER ChIP-seq was carried out to map global ERÎ± binding sites in the presence and absence of estrogen. RNA-seq following estrogen treatment was used for gene expression analysis. We show that expression of ER target genes and ER recruitment to ER binding regions is similar in MCF-7 and MCF-7-Y537S cells, except that ER recruitment to DNA and expression of ER target genes is frequently elevated in the absence of estrogen Hormone depleted MCF-7 LUC /Y537S mutant cells were treated with estrogen (10nM) or ETOH as vehicle control for 45 mins. ErÎ± Chip-seq was performed using Illumnia methodology
