Oncogenic ETS proteins replace activated Ras/MAPK signaling in prostate cells.

ABSTRACT: Approximately 50% of prostate cancers have chromosomal translocations resulting in the over-expression one of four ETS family transcription factors. However, it is not known why these four four family members are selected for oncogenic roles, while other ETS proteins are not. We found that the four oncogenic ETS family members have a specific role in prostate cell migration. Using chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled with next-generation sequencing, this specific biological function was matched to a specific set of genomic targets highlighted by the presence of an AP-1 binding site. ETS/AP-1 binding sites are prototypical Ras-responsive elements, but oncogenic ETS proteins could activate a Ras/MAPK transcriptional program in the absence of MAPK activation. These findings indicate that the specific function of ETS proteins over-expressed in prostate cancer is the activation of a Ras/MAPK gene expression program in the absence of signaling pathway mutations.

RNA from U0126 treated RWPE-1 empty vector cell RNA serves as a control for each experiment. Cell lines have retroviral expression constructs expressing either empty vector, Flag-ERG, or Flag-ETV1.

Global gene expression changes following ELF3 knockdown in prostate epithelial cell lines

Project description:This study aimed to elucidate the role of ELF3, an epithelia-specific member of the ETS family, in normal prostate development and prostate cancer. Four comparisons (untreated, mock-transfected, scrambled siRNA, and targeted siRNA) were performed in two prostate epithelial cell lines BPH-1 (benign) and PC3 (malignant). Global gene expression arrays were performed for each combination.

Pten loss and RAS/MAPK activation cooperate to promote EMT and prostate cancer metastasis initiated from stem/progenitor cells

Project description:PTEN loss or PI3K/AKT signaling pathway activation correlates with human prostate cancer progression and metastasis. However, in preclinical murine models, deletion of Pten alone fails to mimic the significant metastatic burden that frequently accompanies the end stage of human disease. To identify additional pathway alterations that cooperate with PTEN loss in prostate cancer progression, we surveyed human prostate cancer tissue microarrays and found that the RAS/MAPK pathway is significantly elevated both in primary and metastatic lesions. In an attempt to model this event, we crossed conditional activatable K-rasG12D/WT mice with the prostate conditional Pten deletion model we previously generated. Although RAS activation alone cannot initiate prostate cancer development, it significantly accelerated progression caused by PTEN loss, accompanied by epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and macrometastasis with 100% penitence. A novel stem/progenitor subpopulation with mesenchymal characteristics was isolated from the compound mutant prostates, which was highly metastatic upon orthotopic transplantation. Importantly, inhibition of RAS/MAPK signaling by PD325901, a MEK inhibitor, significantly reduced the metastatic progression initiated from transplanted stem/progenitor cells. Collectively, these data indicate that activation of RAS/MAPK signaling serves as a potentiating second hit to alteration of the PTEN/PI3K/AKT axis and co-targeting both pathways is highly effective in preventing the development of metastatic prostate cancers. Murine mutants with prostate specific loss of Pten and K-ras activation (K-rasG12D) under regulation of the probasin promoter developed high grade, invasive prostate cancer. RNA was extracted from dissected prostate lobes from individual mutants with pathology thought to closely mimic human disease. Prostate tissue was subject to RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix cDNA microarrays.

Genome-wide analysis reveals determinants of redundant and specific binding within a transcription factor family

Project description:A central question in transcription factor biology is how a specific member of a transcription factor family occupies a promoter in vivo, when all family members bind the same consensus site in vitro. To uncover the mechanisms regulating DNA binding specificity within transcription factor families, we have used the techniques of chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled with genome-wide microarray analysis to query the occupancy of three members of the ETS transcription factor family in a human T-cell line. Unexpectedly, redundant occupancy was frequently detected while specific occupancy was less likely. An unbiased bioinformatics approach correlated redundant binding with consensus ETS binding sequences near transcription start sites, whereas specific binding sites diverged dramatically from the consensus, were coupled with a site for a cooperative binding partner, and were found further from transcription start sites. The specific and redundant DNA binding modes illustrate the regulation of transcription factor specificity in vivo and suggest two distinct roles for members of the ETS transcription factor family.

ELF1 expression in prostate cells reduces oncogenic ETS functions and promotes senescence and sensitivity to chemotherapy through distinct gene expression programs [RNA-seq]

Project description:Aberrant overexpression of oncogenic ETS factors through chromosomal rearrangments is the most common genomic event in primary prostate tumor and these factors have been well studied. Loss of ELF1, another ETS transcription factor family member, is a common event in prostate cancer, but the function of ELF1 has not been described within the prostate. Studies of ELF1 in different tissue types has determined that it can be important for oncogeneis or tumor suppression. Here, we show that ELF1 is a novel prostate tumor suppressor by hindering oncogenic ETS function at cell migration related genes, but also that ELF1 has the ability to regulate senescence and chemotherapy resistance. Next generation sequencing was used to determine gene expression changes in RWPE-1 cells upon addition of an oncogenic ETS factor and then with the loss of ELF1 through an shRNA knockdown. Genomic binding locations were also determined for ELF1 and ERG, through ChIP-seq to identify any cobound or unique regions. The combination of this data indicates that ELF1 repressed migration related genes which ERG activates, but ELF1 also uniquely binds genes related to cell senescence and activates their transcription. There, these data indicate a novel tumor suppressive mechanism for ELF1 within the prostate and better characterizes its function within this cell type.
