Project description:Our data suggested that FKHD-MSs impair the chromatin binding of FOXA1 to AR-dependent enhancers and thus suppress AR transcriptional activity, and promote PCa progression through increasing FOXA1 binding to a subset of AR-independent enhancers that regulates transcription of genes mediating EMT and metastasis

Project description:FoxA1 has been shown critical for prostate development and prostate-specific gene expression regulation. In addition to its well-established role as an AR pioneering factor,several studies have recently revealed significant AR binding events in prostate cancer cells with FoxA1 knockdown. Furthermore, the role of FoxA1 itself in prostate cancer has not been carefully examined. Thus, it is important to understand the role of FoxA1 in prostate cancer and how it interacts with AR signaling. To address these questions, we generated LNCaP cells with stable FoxA1 knockdown. We performed AR/FoxA1 ChIP-seq and microarray analysis of these cells. ChIP_Seq examination of AR and FoxA1 binding sites in LNCaP shCtrl and shFoxA1 cells

Project description:To identify potential cofactors of HOXB13 in suppressing lipogenic programs in prostate cancer cells, we performed tandem affinity purification followed by mass spectrometry analysis of WT and G84E HOXB13 expressed in LNCaP cells. Out of the HOXB13-enriched proteins are previously reported interactors such as AR and its cofactors FOXA1, GATA2, and NKX3. However, these interactions were not disrupted by G84E as compared to WT HOXB13. Interestingly, we found strong interactions of HOXB13 with HDAC1/3 and their corepressors NCoR1/2 and TBL1X. Notably, these interactions were drastically reduced by G84E mutation.
Project description:FOXA1 is a transcription factor which aids AR function in prostate. There is controversary over the effect of high FOXA1 level has on prostate cancer so we forced the overexpression in the LNCaP prostate cancer cell line. LNCaP prostate cancer cell line was transfected with GFP control plasmid or plasmid containing FOXA1 full length cDNA. The effect on gene expression was assessed by microarray.
