Project description:We compared 22 primary Pca (hormone-dependent) versus 29 metastatic Pca (CRPC). The expression of genes related to cell cycle, proliferation, DNA synthesis, and androgen metablism are significantly increased in CRPC group. The expression of AR-stimulated genes were partially reactivated. TMPRSS2-ERG fusion status was determined for the samples by PCR. The expression of ERG was highly increased in fusion positive versus negative. 120 snap-frozen CT-guided bone marrow biopsies from patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer were collected as a source of material. 29 independent biopsies containing mostly tumor were identified as CRPC group through carefully microscopical examination. 4 samples containing no tumor were identified as normal bone marrow group. Primary tumor was isolated by LCM from frozen biopsies of hormone-naive patients. 22 samples were selected as primary PCa group.

Project description:This study examined ERG expression in primary PCa and CRPC. We have identified altered levels of inflammatory mediators associated with ERG expression and a novel ERG-associated protein, DCLK1, which may play a role in primary PCa progression to metastatic CPRC.

Project description:TMPRSS2-ERG fusion is the most common genetic alteration in prostate cancer (PCa) and TP53 is the most frequently mutated gene in human cancers. However, their precise roles in PCa pathogenesis remain elusive. Here we showed that TMPRSS2-ERG fusion co-occurred with TP53 deletion/mutation in PCa patient specimens. ERG overexpression and Trp53 knockout/R172H mutant knockin induced pyrimidine synthesis gene (PSG) expression and prostate tumorigenesis in mice. Gain-of-function p53 mutants bound to the CTNNB1 promoter and upregulated β-Catenin. Overexpressed ERG and β-Catenin co-occupied PSG loci and mediated PSG expression, and high PSG expression associated with increased β-Catenin level and poor overall survival of PCa patients. β-Catenin inhibition by proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTACs) of its co-activator CBP and partner proteins LEF1/TCFs blocked ERG/p53-mutant PCa growth. Our study identifies CTNNB1 as a transcriptional target of p53 GOF-mutants, and reveals a druggable dependency on β-Catenin and pyrimidine synthesis in p53-mutated cancers with or without TMPRSS2-ERG fusion.

Project description:Common epithelial cancers are believed to become more aggressive through the accumulation of multiple independent molecular events that lead to the deregulation of cell signaling. However, the discovery that the majority of prostate cancers harbor gene fusions of the 5'-untranslated region of androgen regulated TMPRSS2 promoter with ETS transcription factor family members has brought this paradigm into question1,2. TMPRSS2-ERG gene fusion is the most common molecular sub-type of prostate cancer. Recent work suggests that the TMPRSS2-ERG fusion is associated with a more aggressive clinical phenotype3. In the most advanced castration resistant prostate cancers where the androgen receptor has been inactivated, the TMPRSS2-ERG fusion remains functionally active. Here we show compelling clinical and gene expression data supporting the existence of a TMPRSS2-ERG fusion prostate cancer subclass. Using expression array profiling on 455 primary prostate tumors, we identified an 87 gene expression signature, distinguishing TMPRSS2-ERG fusion prostate cancer as a discrete molecular entity. Computational analysis suggested that this fusion signature was associated with estrogen receptor signaling. Functional studies demonstrated regulation of the TMPRSS2-ERG fusion transcript by estrogenic compounds. These data identify a previously unrecognized mechanism for regulation of the TMPRSS2-ERG, even in the absence of a functional androgen receptor, and thus may have broader implications in the treatment of prostate cancer.

Project description:Men who develop metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) invariably succumb to the disease. The development and progression to CRPC following androgen ablation therapy is predominantly driven by unregulated androgen receptor (AR) signaling1-3. Despite the success of recently approved therapies targeting AR signaling such as abiraterone4-6 and second generation anti-androgens MDV3100 (enzalutamide)7,8, durable responses are limited, presumably due to acquired resistance. Recently JQ1 and I-BET, two selective small molecule inhibitors that target the amino-terminal bromodomains of BRD4, have been shown to exhibit antiproliferative effects in a range of malignancies9-12. Here we show that AR signaling-competent CRPC cell lines are preferentially sensitive to BET bromodomain inhibition. BRD4 physically interacts with the N-terminal domain of AR and can be disrupted by JQ111,13. Like the direct AR antagonist, MDV3100, JQ1 disrupted AR recruitment to target gene loci. In contrast to MDV3100, JQ1 functions downstream of AR, and more potently abrogated BRD4 localization to AR target loci and AR mediated gene transcription including induction of TMPRSS2-ERG and its oncogenic activity. In vivo, BET bromodomain inhibition was more efficacious than direct AR antagonism in CRPC xenograft models. Taken together, these studies provide a novel epigenetic approach for the concerted blockade of oncogenic drivers in advanced prostate cancer.

Project description:Prostate tumors with the gene fusion TMPRSS2:ERG have been reported to have a significantly higher risk of recurrence compared with tumors lacking the fusion. Tumors from 139 patients who underwent radical prostatectomy were analyzed for the expression of 502 cancer-related genes to identify genes differentially regulated in TMPRSS2:ERG fusion tumors as well as identify biomarkers of biochemical recurrence. 139 prostate fresh-frozen tumors from radical prostatectomy surgery where profiled on the Illumina Human Cancer DASL Panel. 69 tumors were positive for the gene fusion TMPRSS2:ERG while 70 where not. 33 of the 139 patients experienced biochemical recurrence. Data was analyzed for differential genes in TMPRSS2:ERG fusion positive tumors as well as clinical and molecular biomarkers of recurrence.
