Altered Cofactor Recruitment and Nucleosome Dynamics Underlie Bisphenol A's Impact on Estrogen Receptor-Mediated Transcriptional Bursting [ATAC-seq]

ABSTRACT: Gene regulation is complex, involving the coordination of hundreds of proteins to initiate transcription. At individual loci, transcriptional initiation is stochastic, resulting in short periods of nascent RNA synthesis known as transcriptional bursts. To understand how altered Estrogen Receptor α (ERα) function and cofactor recruitment regulates transcriptional bursting, we utilized single molecule imaging of estrogen responsive genes in Bisphenol A (BPA) treated cells. We observe that cells treated with BPA exhibited TFF1 burst initiation rates and sizes which were indistinguishable from cells induced with Estradiol (E2). However, we observed a 50% reduction in the number of active alleles in BPA treated cells. This effect is gene specific, as GREB1 was unperturbed. Although we observed no difference in chromatin accessibility, the TFF1 promoter exhibited an altered structure which coincided with reduced ERα and cofactor binding. Lastly, deletion of the enhancer locus removed the BPA effect, indicating that enhancer function was perturbed. Our results demonstrate gene specific effects of altered ERα recruitment and function which lead to a reduction of transcriptionally permissive states. Our work supports the model that the initial estrogen response occurs from alleles in primed transcriptionally permissive states with additional inactive alleles contributing to the cellular response over time.

Transcriptomal profiling of C57BL/6 wild type and ER-alpha KO mice fetal mammary gland after fetal exposure to Bisphenol A (BPA) and 17alpha-ethynylestradiol (EE2)

Project description:To examine whether the BPA-induced morphological alterations of the fetal mouse mammary glands are a) associated with changes in mRNA expression reflecting estrogenic actions and/or b) dependent on the estrogen receptor α (ERα), we compared the transcriptomal effects of BPA and the steroidal estrogen ethinylestradiol (EE2) on fetal mammary tissues of wild type and ERα knock-out mice. Mammary glands from fetuses of dams exposed to vehicle, 250 ng BPA/kg BW/d or 10 ng EE2/kg BW/d from embryonic day (E) 8 were harvested at E19. Total RNA was subjected to transcriptomal profiling using Affymetrix mouse genome 430 2.0 microarray.

In vitro transcriptomic analyses reveal pathway perturbations, estrogenic activities, and potencies of data-poor BPA alternative chemicals

Project description:Since initial regulatory action in 2010 in Canada, bisphenol A (BPA) has been progressively replaced by structurally related alternative chemicals. Unfortunately, many of these chemicals are data-poor, limiting toxicological risk assessment. We used high-throughput transcriptomics to evaluate potential hazards and compare potencies of BPA and 15 BPA alternative chemicals in cultured breast cancer cells. MCF-7 cells were exposed to BPA and 15 alternative chemicals (0.0005 – 100 µM) for 48 hrs. TempO-Seq sequencing (BioSpyder Inc.) was used to examine general toxicological effects and estrogen receptor alpha (ERα)-associated transcriptional changes. Benchmark concentration (BMC) analysis was conducted to identify two global transcriptomic points of departure (tPODs): (a) the lowest pathway median gene BMC and (b) the 25th lowest rank-ordered gene BMC. ERα activation was evaluated using a published transcriptomic biomarker and an ERα-specific tPOD was derived. Genes fitting BMC models were subjected to upstream regulator and canonical pathway analysis in Ingenuity Pathway Analysis. Biomarker analysis identified BPA and eight alternative chemicals as ERα active. Global and ERα tPODs produced highly similar potency rankings with BPAF as the most potent chemical tested, followed by BPA, BPC, 4,4’-BPF, BPAP, BPS, BADGE, 2,4’-BPF, Pergafast201®, D-8, 2,4’-BPS, TGSA, and BPS-MAE. Further, BPA and transcriptionally active alternative chemicals enriched similar gene sets associated with increased cell division and cancer-related processes. These data provide support for future read-across applications of transcriptomic profiling for risk assessment of data-poor chemicals and suggest that several BPA alternative chemicals may cause hazards at similar concentrations to BPA.

Heat Shock Factor 1 (HSF1) acquires transcriptional competence under 17b-estradiol in ERa-positive breast cancer cells [ChIP-seq]

Project description:Heat Shock Transcription Factor 1 (HSF1) is a well-known regulator of gene expression during acute environmental stress that enables the cells to survive. Its high level in estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer patients correlated with a worse prognosis. Here, we demonstrated that 17β-estradiol (E2) as well as bisphenol A (BPA) and propyl pyrazole triol (PPT, ERα agonist) led to HSF1 phosphorylation on S326 in ERα positive mammary breast cancer cells, but not in ERα-negative ones. We showed that ERK1/2 signaling was involved in this process and down-regulation of ERα expression abrogated it. E2activated HSF1 was transcriptionally potent. Chip-Seq and RNA-Seq analyses revealed that it could modulate the expression of several genes known to be essential for breast cancer cells growth and/or ERα action, i.e. HSPB8, LHX4, PRKCE, WWC1, and GREB1. Our findings indicate that a positive feedback loop between ERα and HSF1 signaling may exist which support the growth of estrogen-dependent tumors.

High-throughput transcriptomics screening of mixtures of BPA alternatives reveal additive effects in vitro

Project description:Humans are regularly exposed to mixtures of BPA alternative chemicals through their diets, consumer products and other sources. Like BPA, many alternatives perturb nuclear hormone receptors and are considered endocrine disrupting chemicals. We used high-throughput transcriptomics (HTTr) to evaluate the potency and potential modes of action of seven mixtures of BPA alternatives, along with their 12 individual components, in MCF-7 breast cancer cells. Our primary aim was to explore whether alternatives present in mixtures act additively. MCF-7 cells were exposed to chemicals (0.001 – 50 µM) for 48 h in serum-free conditions and TempO-Seq (BioSypder Inc.) was used to determine global and estrogen receptor alpha (ERα)-specific transcriptomic changes. Transcriptomic points of departure were derived using benchmark concentration (BMC) modelling. We first identified the concentration at which global transcriptional activity was robustly altered. Then, a novel ERα transcriptomic biomarker was used to identify ERα agonists and model a predicted ERα activation point of departure. Mixtures modelling was employed to predict potency of BPA alternatives and test for additive effects in vitro. Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA; Qiagen) was used to identify upstream regulators and canonical pathways from genes fitting BMCs. All seven mixtures had additive effects across all transcriptomic points of departure modelled. BPAF was the most potent individual chemical tested overall, followed by BPA and BPC. The ERα transcriptomic biomarker classified all mixtures as ERα activators along with several individual BPA alternatives. Pathway analysis revealed that all mixtures and most individual components perturbed similar upstream regulators and pathways, suggesting common modes of action. These data support the use of HTTr as part of new approach methodologies to assess the toxicological potency of mixtures in vitro.

Preferential Epigenetic Programming of Estrogen Response after in utero xenoestrogen (bisphenol-A) exposure [Illumina]

Project description:Bisphenol-A (BPA) is an environmentally ubiquitous estrogen-like endocrine-disrupting compound. Exposure toBPAin utero hasbeen linked to female reproductive disorders, including endometrial hyperplasia and breast cancer. Estrogens are an etiological factor in many of these conditions. We sought to determine whether in utero exposure to BPA altered the global CpG methylation pattern of the uterine genome, subsequent gene expression, and estrogen response. Pregnant mice were exposed to an environmentally relevant dose of BPA or DMSO control. Uterine DNA and RNA were examined by using methylated DNA immunoprecipitation methylation microarray, expression microarray, and quantitative PCR. In utero BPA exposure altered the global CpG methylation profile of the uterine genome and subsequent gene expression. The effect on gene expression was not apparent until sexual maturation, which suggested that estrogen response was the primary alteration. Indeed, prenatal BPA exposure preferentially altered adult estrogen-responsive gene expression. Changes in estrogen response were accompanied by altered methylation that preferentially affected estrogen receptor-a (ERa)–binding genes. The majority of genes that demonstrated both altered expression and ERa binding had decreased methylation. BPA selectively altered the normal developmental programming of estrogen-responsive genes via modification of the genes that bind ERa. Gene– environment interactions driven by early life xenoestrogen exposure likely contributes to increased risk of estrogen related disease in adults.—Jorgensen, E. M.,Alderman,M.H., III,Taylor, H. S.
