Project description:Analysis of the effect of progesterone blockade at the gene expression level. The hypothesis tested in the present study is that elapristone (CDB4124), an antiprogestin, will downregulate genes that are stimulated by R5020, a synthetic progestin, in the T47D breast cancer cell line. Total RNA obtained from T47 breast cancer cells grown for 24 hours in the presence of: 1. The sythetic progestin R5020 compared to vehicle control; 2. The antiprogestin Telapristone (CDB4124) compared to vehicle control; and 3. R5020 compared to R5020 ± Telapristone.
Project description:Exploring effect of progesterone/progestin treatment on gene expression Two cell lines, three conditions (Full Media with E2, E2+ Progesterone, Full Media + R5020 Progestin)
Project description:Exploring effect of progesterone/progestin treatment on ER and PR binding. Two cell lines, three conditions (Full Media with E2, E2+ Progesterone, Full Media + R5020 Progestin), three factors (ER, PR, p300), all with three replicates, each with a matched Input control.
Project description:Breast cancer cell lines containing the progesterone receptor respond to progestins, altering expression of a subset of genes. In a previously published experiment of inducible knock-down of histone H1 isoforms with an shRNA-expression lentivector (GSE12299), we modified the breast cancer cell line T47D with different vectors. Here, we explored response to progestin R5020 of control cells generated with the empty shRNA-expression vector. Stable breast cancer-derived cell lines containing the empty vector for inducible shRNA expression were grown for two days in the absence of serum. Progestin R5020 or vehicle was added for 6 hours, in duplicate, and RNA was extracted for microarray hybridization.

Project description:Estrogen (E2) and Progesterone (Pg) via their specific receptors, ER and PR respectively, are major determinants in the development and progression of endometrial malignancies. We have studied how E2 and the synthetic progestin R5020 affect genomic function in Ishikawa endometrial cancer cells. Using ChIPseq in cells exposed to the corresponding hormones, we identified cell specific binding sites for ER (ERbs) and PR (PRbs), mostly binding to independent sites and both adjacent to PAXbs. Long-range interactions (HiC) showed enrichment of PRbs and PAXbs, which we call progestin control regions (PgCRs) inside TADs with differentially progestin-regulated genes. Effects of hormone treatments on gene expression were detected by RNAseq. PgCRs correlate with open chromatin independently of hormonal stimuli. In summary, endometrial response to progestins in differentiated endometrial tumor cells results in part from binding of PR to compartmentalized PgCRs in hormone-independent open chromatin, which include binding of partner transcription factors, in particular PAX2.
