Context-dependent effect of glucocorticoid receptor activity shapes ovarian cancer cell plasticity and therapy response

ABSTRACT: The phenotypic plasticity of cancer cells, i.e. their adaptability to a variable/ stressful environment, is fundamental for disease progression/aggressiveness. Here we revealed that the glucocorticoid receptor (GR, NR3C1), a key player in the human response to stress, controls proliferation, morphology, motility/invasion, and the gene expression profile of high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (hereafter OC) cells. By modulating glucose metabolism, GR acts as a tumor suppressor delaying ovarian cancer growth under 3D-settings. Conversely, under 2D conditions GR acts as a tumor promoter, driving cell mesenchymalization, increasing cell motility and chemoresistance. Strikingly, modulators of glucose metabolism as metformin and 2-deoxyglucose, are alone sufficient to induce similar cell behavioural changes. So, in ovarian cancer a GR-glucose metabolism axis modulates a escaping signalling response triggered by stressful (3D overgrowth, starvation) condition.

Explore the gene sets modulated by alterations in lactate levels.

Project description:Lactate is an end product of glycolysis and a signaling factor involved in important physiological functions in triple-negative breast cancer. 2-deoxyglucose inhibits glucose metabolism and reduces lactate production. To explore these regulated gene sets, we performed genome-wide transcriptional analysis.

PAXIP1 and STAG2 converge to maintain 3D genome archi-tecture and facilitate promoter/enhancer contacts to enable stress hormone-dependent transcription

Project description:How steroid hormone receptors (SHRs) orchestrate transcriptional activity remains only partly understood. Upon activation, SHRs bind the genome and recruit their co-regulators, crucial to induce gene expression. However, it remains unknown which components of the SHR-recruited coregulator complex are essential to drive transcription following hormonal stimuli. Through a FACS-based genome-wide CRISPR screen, we comprehensively dissected the Glucocorticoid Receptor (GR) co-regulatory complex involved in gene-target regulation. We describe a novel functional cross-talk between PAXIP1 and the cohesin subunit STAG2 that is critical for regulation of gene expression by GR. Without altering the GR cistrome, PAXIP1 and STAG2 depletion alter the GR transcriptome, by impairing the recruitment of 3D-genome organization proteins to the GR complex. Importantly, we demonstrate that PAXIP1 is required for stability of cohesin on the genome, its localization to GR-occupied sites, and maintenance of enhancer-promoter interactions. Moreover, in lung cancer, where GR acts as tumor suppressor, PAXIP1/STAG2 loss enhances GR-mediated tumor suppressor activity by modifying local chromatin interactions. All together, we introduce PAXIP1 and STAG2 as novel co-regulators of GR, required to maintain 3D-genome architecture and drive the GR transcriptional programme following hormonal stimuli.

The Intermittent Fasting Mimetic, 2-deoxyglucose, Reprograms Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) transcription via an Adaptive ER Stress-ATF4 Pathway and Improves Outcomes in Alzheimer’s and Stroke Models [RNA-seq]

Project description:In our preliminary in-vitro studies in primary neurons, we found that changing glucose utlization using 2-deoxyglucose (2-DG, a known glycolytic inhibitor, which inhibits glucose utilization) led to a dose dependent signficant increase in Bdnf gene expression. Additionally, the dose of 2-DG that induced Bdnf gene expression also normalized learning and memory in mouse model of AD (5xFAD mouse) and improved functional recovery in mice models of ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes. With RNA Sequencing of 2-DG treated primary neuronal samples, our first goal was to identify dominant gene signatures in response to 2-deoxyglucose in order to delineate critical pathways affected by changes in glucose metabolism and our second goal was to understand if 2-deoxyglucose affect a broad gene plasticity program or only a few selective plasticity genes.

ChIP-MS for GR in liver from wild type and E47 mutant mice

Project description:Glucocorticoids (GCs) are widely prescribed effective drugs, but their clinical use is compromised by severe side effects including hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia and obesity. They bind to the Glucocorticoid Receptor (GR), which acts as a ligand-gated transcription factor. The transcriptional activation of metabolic genes by GR is thought to underlie these undesired adverse effects. Using mouse genetics, ChIP-Seq, RNA-Seq and ChIP-MS, we found that the bHLH transcription factor E47 is required for the regulation of hepatic glucose and lipid metabolism by GR in vivo, and that loss of E47 prevents the development of hyperglycemia and hepatic steatosis in response to GCs. Here we show that E47 and GR co-occupy metabolic promoters and enhancers. E47 is needed for the efficient binding of GR to chromatin and for the adequate recruitment of coregulators such as Mediator. Taken together, our results illustrate how GR and E47 regulate hepatic metabolism, and how inhibition of E47 might provide an entry point for novel GC therapies with reduced side effect profiles. These ChIP-MS data sets show IPs for GR in both wildtype and E47 mutant mouse livers treated with the synthetic glucocorticoid Dexamethasone.

Proteomic landscapes of 3D and 2D models of High-Grade Serous Ovarian Carcinoma: Implications for Carboplatin Response

Project description:High-Grade Serous Ovarian Carcinoma (HGSOC) is the most common form of ovarian cancer and finding new treatments remains an unmet need. While drug discovery is typically performed in two-dimensional (2D) monolayers, three-dimensional (3D) culture systems better mimic in vivo conditions. However, a comprehensive comparison of 3D vs 2D ovarian cancer models is lacking. Here, we quantitatively compared the whole cell proteomic signatures of 4 ovarian cell lines—PEO1, PEO4, UWB1.289, and UWB1.289+BRCA1— with different status of BRCA genes grown, in 2D and in 3D. Using isobaric labeling proteomics, we quantified 6,404 proteins and identified 371 significantly and commonly altered proteins between 2D and 3D. Proteins upregulated in 3D were enriched for transmembrane transport and NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase Complex I, while energy metabolism and cell growth pathways also showed dimensionality-dependent changes. Notably, membrane-associated proteins were downregulated in spheroids, particularly EGFR in PEO1. Furthermore, 3D culture modulated the response to carboplatin, with increased expression of drug resistance-associated proteins, including NDUF family members in all spheroid models. These findings underscore how culture dimensionality influences both the molecular landscape and chemotherapeutic response of HGSOC cells and highlight candidate targets for overcoming carboplatin resistance.
