Project description:High-throughput transcriptomic (HTTr) technologies are increasingly being used to screen environmental chemicals in vitro to identify molecular targets and provide mechanistic context for regulatory testing. The androgen receptor (AR, NR3C4) regulates male sexual development, is involved in the pathogenesis of a number of cancers, and is often the target of endocrine disruptors. Here, we describe the development and validation of a novel gene expression biomarker to identify AR-modulating chemicals using a pattern matching method. AR biomarker genes were identified by their consistent expression after exposure to 4 AR agonists and opposite expression after exposure to 4 AR antagonists. A genetic filter was used to include only those genes that were regulated by AR. Most of the resulting 51 biomarker genes were shown to be directly regulated by AR as determined by ChIP-Seq analysis of AR-DNA interactions. The biomarker was evaluated as a predictive tool using the fold-change rank-based Running Fisher algorithm which compares the expression of AR biomarker genes under various treatment conditions. Using 163 comparisons from cells treated with 98 chemicals, the biomarker gave balanced accuracies for prediction of AR activation or AR suppression of 97% or 98%, respectively. The biomarker was able to correctly classify 16 out of 17 AR reference antagonists including those that are “weak” and “very weak”. Predictions based on comparisons from AR-positive LAPC-4 cells treated with 28 chemicals in antagonist mode were compared to those from an AR pathway model based on 11 in vitro high-throughput screening assays that queried different steps in AR signaling. The balanced accuracy was 93% for suppression. Using our approach, we identified conditions in which AR was modulated in a large collection of microarray profiles from prostate cancer cell lines including 1) AR constitutively active mutants or knockdown of AR, 2) depletion of androgens by castration or removal from media, and 3) modulators that work through indirect mechanisms including suppression of AR expression. These results demonstrate that the AR gene expression biomarker could be a useful tool in HTTr to identify AR modulators in large collections of microarray data derived from AR-positive prostate cancer cell lines.

Project description:The androgen receptor (AR) is overexpressed and hyperactivated in human castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). However, the determinants of AR overexpression in CRPC are poorly defined. Here we show that retinoic acid receptorârelated orphan receptor γ (ROR-γ) is overexpressed and amplified in metastatic CRPC tumors, and that ROR-γ drives AR expression in the tumors. ROR-γ recruits nuclear receptor coactivator 1 and 3 (NCOA1 and NCOA3, also known as SRC-1 and SRC-3) to an ARâROR response element (RORE) to stimulate AR gene transcription. ROR-γ antagonists suppress the expression of both AR and its variant AR-V7 in prostate cancer (PCa) cell lines and tumors. ROR-γ antagonists also markedly diminish genome-wide AR binding, H3K27ac abundance and expression of the AR target gene network. Finally, ROR-γ antagonists suppressed tumor growth in multiple AR-expressing, but not AR-negative, xenograft PCa models, and they effectively sensitized CRPC tumors to enzalutamide, without overt toxicity in mice. Taken together, these results establish ROR-γ as a key player in CRPC by acting upstream of AR and as a potential therapeutic target for advanced PCa. A total of 16 samples were analyzed in this study. The study included one cell line C4-2B. C4-2B cells were cultured in medium containing vehicle control or SR2211 (5 µM) for 24 hours, cells then were collected for ChIP seq assay

Project description:Human androgen receptor (AR) is a hormone-activated transcription factor that is an important drug-target in the treatment of prostate cancer. Current small molecule AR-antagonists (such as Enzalutamide) compete with male hormones that bind to the steroid binding pocket of the AR ligand binding domain (LBD). In castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), drug-resistance can manifest through AR-LBD mutations that convert AR-antagonists into agonists, or by expression of AR-variants lacking the LBD. Such treatment resistance underscores the importance of novel ways of targeting the AR. In this study, we tested whether VPC14449, a small molecule inhibitor that was rationally designed to selectively target the AR DNA binding domain (DBD), could directly interfere with AR-DNA interactions. Using ChIP-seq in cell line models expressing AR or AR variants, we found that genome-wide chromatin binding of AR was dramatically impacted by VPC14449 (although with lesser effect on AR variants).

Project description:The androgen receptor (AR) plays a crucial role in normal physiology, development and metabolism as well as in the etiology and treatment of diverse pathologies such as androgen insensitivity syndromes (AIS), male infertility, and prostate cancer (PCa). Here, we show that dimerization of AR ligand-binding domain (LBD) is induced by receptor agonists but not by antagonists. The 2.15-Å crystal structure of homodimeric, agonist- and coactivator peptide bound AR-LBD unveils a 1,000-Å2 large dimerization surface, which harbors over 40 previously unexplained AIS- and PCa-associated point mutations. An AIS mutation in the self-association interface (P767A) disrupts dimer formation in vivo, and has a detrimental effect on the transactivating properties of full-length AR, despite retained hormone-binding capacity. The conservation of essential residues suggests that the newly unveiled dimerization mechanism might be shared by other nuclear receptors. Our work defines AR-LBD homodimerization as an essential step in the proper functioning of this important transcription factor.

Project description:In castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), clinical response to androgen receptor (AR) antagonists is limited mainly due to AR-variants expression and restored AR signaling. The metabolite spermine is most abundant in prostate and it decreases as prostate cancer progresses, but its functions remain poorly understood. Here, we show spermine inhibits full-length androgen receptor (AR-FL) and androgen receptor splice variant 7 (AR-V7) signaling and suppresses CRPC cell proliferation by directly binding and inhibiting protein arginine methyltransferase PRMT1. Spermine reduces H4R3me2a modification at the AR locus and suppresses AR binding as well as H3K27ac modification levels at AR target genes. Spermine supplementation restrains CRPC growth in vivo. PRMT1 inhibition also suppresses AR-FL and AR-V7 signaling and reduces CRPC growth. Collectively, we demonstrate spermine as an anticancer metabolite by inhibiting PRMT1 to transcriptionally inhibit AR-FL and AR-V7 signaling in CRPC, and we indicate spermine and PRMT1 inhibition as powerful strategies overcoming limitations of current AR-based therapies in CRPC.
