MAF Amplification licenses Estrogen Receptor α to Drive Breast Cancer Metastasis [RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: We performed mRNA profiling of control and MAF-overexpressing MCF7 cells to assess the transcriptional consequences of estrogen receptor (ER) activation upon metastatic MAF expression. To this end, we cultured MCF7 cells in hormone-deprived (HD) medium for 72 h and then estrogen (E2) or vehicle was added for 6h prior to RNA extraction. Samples were generated in triplicate. We report that MAF supports the expression of genes involved in metastatic functions and that E2 treatment correlates with E2 early and late gene responses and cell cycle regulation. Additionally, a set of MAF and E2-dependent gene responses was identified. Our results show that MAF expression causes an expansion of ER-mediated transcriptional events in MCF7 cells exposed to E2. Additionally, we silenced KDM1A expression in MAF-overexpressing MCF7 cells to test whether this histone demethylase mediates the transcriptional consequences of MAF overexpression. Samples with KDM1A knockdown were generated in duplicates. We report that KDM1A partially regulates MAF/E2-dependent gene responses.

Project description:Altered expression of microRNAs (miRNAs), an abundant class of small non-protein-coding RNAs that mostly function as negative regulators of protein-coding gene expression, is common in cancer. Here we analyze the regulation of miRNA expression in response to estrogen, a steroid hormone that is involved in the development and progression of breast carcinomas and that is acting via the estrogen receptors (ER) transcription factors. We set out to thoroughly describe miRNA expression, by using miRNA microarrays and real time RTPCR experiments, in various breast tumor cell lines in which estrogen signaling has been induced by 17β-estradiol (E2). We show that the expression of a broad set of miRNAs decreases following E2 treatment in an ER-dependent manner. We further show that enforced expression of several of the repressed miRNAs reduces E2-dependent cell growth, thus linking expression of specific miRNAs with estrogen-dependent cellular response. In addition, a transcriptome analysis revealed that the E2-repressed miR-26a and miR-181a regulate many genes associated with cell growth and proliferation, including the progesterone receptor gene, a key actor in estrogen signaling. Strikingly, miRNA expression is also regulated in breast cancers of women who had received antiestrogen neoadjuvant therapy thereby showing an estrogen-dependent in vivo regulation of miRNA expression. Overall, our data indicates that the extensive alterations in miRNA regulation upon estrogen signalling pathway plays a key role in estrogen-dependent functions and highlights the utility of considering miRNA expression in the understanding of antiestrogen resistance of breast cancer. 9 samples analyzed. Triplicates were done. MCF-7+miR26a+E2 (n=1 to 3) ; MCF7+miRctrl+E2 (n=1 to 3) ; MCF7+miRctrl+vehicle (n=1 to 3). We generated pairwise comparisons using EASANA from GenoSplice technology: MCF-7+miR26a+E2 versus MCF7+miRctrl+E2 and MCF-7+miRctrl+E2 versus MCF7+miRctrl+vehicle. Fold change ≥1.5 were selected.
