Suppression of the FOXM1 transcriptional program via novel small molecule inhibition

ABSTRACT: The transcription factor FOXM1 binds to sequence-specific motifs on DNA (C/TAAACA) through its DNA binding domain (DBD), and activates proliferation- and differentiation-associated genes. Aberrant overexpression of FOXM1 is a key feature in oncogenesis and progression of many human cancers. Herein we identify novel inhibitors of FOXM1 that block DNA binding from a high-throughput screen applied to a library of 54,211 small molecules. One compound, FDI-6 (NCGC00099374) is studied in depth and is shown to bind directly to FOXM1 protein, displace the transcription factor from genomic targets in MCF-7 breast cancer cells, and induce concomitant transcriptional down-regulation. Global transcript profiling of MCF-7 cells by RNA-seq shows that FDI-6 specifically down regulates FOXM1-activated genes with FOXM1 occupancy confirmed by ChIP-seq. This small molecule mediated effect is selective for FOXM1-controlled genes with no effect on genes regulated by homologous forkhead family factors.

FOXM1 binds directly to non-consensus sequences in the human genome

Project description:The Forkhead transcription factor, FOXM1, is a key regulator of the cell cycle and is over-expressed in most types of cancer. FOXM1, similar to other Forkhead (FKH) factors binds to a canonical FKH motif in vitro. However, genome-wide mapping studies in different cell lines have shown a lack of enrichment of the FKH motif at FOXM1 binding sites suggesting an alternative mode of chromatin recruitment. We have investigated the role of direct versus indirect DNA binding in FOXM1 recruitment by performing ChIP-seq with WT and DNA binding deficient FOXM1. An in vitro fluorescence polarization (FP) assay was used to identify point mutations in the DNA binding domain (DBD) of FOXM1 that inhibit binding to a FKH consensus sequence. Stable cell lines expressing either WT or DBD mutant green fluorescence protein (GFP)-tagged FOXM1 were utilized for genome-wide mapping studies comparing the distribution of the DBD mutant protein to the WT. This showed that interaction of the DBD of FOXM1 with target DNA is essential for recruitment. Moreover, analysis of protein interactome of the WT versus DBD mutant FOXM1 showed that the reduced recruitment is not due to the mutation inhibiting protein-protein interactions. This study showed that a functional DBD domain is essential for FOXM1 chromatin recruitment. Even in FOXM1 mutants that show almost complete loss of binding the protein-protein interactome and pattern of phosphorylation are largely unaffected. These results strongly support a model whereby FOXM1 is specifically recruited to chromatin through co-factor interactions by binding directly to both canonical and non-canonical DNA sequences.

FOXM1 Cistrome Predicts Breast Cancer Metastatic Outcome Better Than FOXM1 Expression Levels or Tumor Proliferation Index [ChIP-Seq]

Project description:FOXM1 is a key transcription factor regulating cell cycle progression, DNA damage response, and a host of other hallmark cancer features, but the role of the FOXM1 cistrome in driving estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) vs. ER- breast cancer clinical outcomes remains undefined. Chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-Seq) coupled with RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) analyses was used to identify FOXM1 target genes in breast cancer cells (MCF-7) where FOXM1 expression was either induced by cell proliferation or repressed by p53 upregulation.

Genome-wide mapping of FOXM1 binding reveals co-binding with oestrogen receptor alpha in breast cancer cells (expression)

Project description:The forkhead transcription factor FOXM1 is a key regulator of the cell cycle and is overexpressed in cancer. Increased levels of FOXM1 are associated with both poor prognosis and oestrogen receptor (ERalpha) status in primary breast cancer. In this study, we map FOXM1 binding genome wide in both ERalpha-positive (MCF-7) and -negative (MDA-MB-231) breast cancer cells. We identify a common set of FOXM1 binding events at cell cycle-regulating genes, but in addition, in MCF-7 cells we find a high level of concordance with ERalpha-binding regions. FOXM1 binding at these co-binding sites is dependent on ERalpha binding, as depletion of ER protein levels reduced FOXM1 binding. FOXM1 interacts directly with both ERalpha co-activator CARM1 and is required for H3 arginine methylation at the ERalpha complex. Inhibition of FOXM1 activity with the ligand thiostrepton resulted in decreased FOXM1 binding at cca. 1400 sites genome wide and reduced expression of genes correlated with poor prognosis in ERalpha-positive tumour samples. These data demonstrate a novel role for the forkhead protein FOXM1 as an ERalpha cofactor and provide insight into the role of FOXM1 in ERalpha-positive breast cancer. MCF-7 cells were treated with either thiostrepton or DMSO for 6 hr. Each treatment was carried out in replicates of 6.

Four replicates were performed in MCF7 cells and two replicates in MDA-MB-231 cells.

Global binding profiles of MYBL2 and FOXM1 in lung adenocarcinoma reveal that MYBL2 regulates FOXM1 to control cell-cycle genes including CENPA [ChIP-seq]

Project description:MYBL2 is a transcription factor that has either pro-survival or anti-survival functions in a cell-type specific manner. Overexpression of MYBL2 is associated with worse survival of lung adenocarcinoma, but the mechanism by which it regulates transcription has not yet been elucidated. In this study, we found that MYBL2 mainly binds to the promoters of highly expressed genes in lung adenocarcinoma cells using ChIP-seq. Using knock-down and RNA-seq approach, we identified over a thousand of genes deregulated by MYBL2. By integrating ChIP-seq and RNA-seq data, we identified target genes of MYBL2. We revealed that FOXM1 is regulated by MYBL2 in lung adenocarcinoma cells, and FOXM1 binding sites are largely shared with MYBL2 binding sites. We treated lung adenocarcinoma cells with FDI-6, a known FOXM1 inhibitor and investigated the effect of FDI-6 in transcriptional regulation of MYBL2 and FOXM1. We found that CENPA is one of the key genes regulated by MYBL2 and FOXM1, and that it can be inhibited by FDI-6. Our signaling pathway analysis results revealed that MYBL2 and FOXM1 activate cell-cycle genes, suggesting that MYBL2 and FOXM1 act as oncogenic transcription factors in lung adenocarcinoma cells and FDI-6 could be a potential treatment of the disease.

Transcription factor FOXM1 specifies chromatin DNA to extracellular vesicles

Project description:Extracellular vesicle DNAs (evDNAs) hold significant diagnostic value for various diseases and facilitate transcellular transfer of genetic material. Our study identifies transcription factor FOXM1 as a mediator for directing chromatin genes or DNA fragments (termed FOXM1-chDNAs) to extracellular vesicles (EVs). FOXM1 binds to MAP1LC3/LC3 in the nucleus, and FOXM1-chDNAs, such as the DUX4 gene and telomere DNA, are designated by FOXM1 binding and translocated to the cytoplasm before being released to EVs through the secretory autophagy during lysosome inhibition (SALI) process involving LC3. Disrupting FOXM1 expression or the SALI process impairs FOXM1-chDNAs incorporation into EVs. FOXM1-chDNAs can be transmitted to recipient cells via EVs and expressed in recipient cells when they carry functional genes. This finding provides an example of how chromatin DNA fragments are specified to EVs by transcription factor FOXM1, revealing its contribution to the formation of evDNAs from nuclear chromatin. It provides a basis for further exploration of the roles of evDNAs in biological processes, such as horizontal gene transfer.
