Project description:Androgen Receptor (AR) is essential for the growth and progression of prostate cancer in both hormone-sensitive and hormone-refractory disease. We have designed a sequence-specific DNA binding polyamide (1) that targets the consensus androgen response element (ARE). This polyamide binds the PSA promoter ARE, inhibits androgen-induced expression of PSA and several other AR-regulated genes in cultured prostate cancer cells, and reduces AR occupancy at the PSA promoter and enhancer. Down-regulation of PSA by this polyamide was comparable to that produced by the synthetic anti-androgen bicalutamide (Casodex) at the same concentration. Genome-wide expression analysis reveals that a similar number of transcripts are affected by treatment with the polyamide and with bicalutamide. Direct inhibition of AR-DNA binding by sequence-specific DNA binding small molecules could offer an alternative approach to antagonizing AR activity. A polyamide (2) that targets a different DNA sequence is included as a control. Experiment Overall Design: DHT (dihydrotestosterone)-stimulated LNCaP cells that were treatment with polyamide 1, polyamide 2, bicalutamide were compared to control cells that were also DHT-stimulated. Cells not stimulated with DHT were also compared to the DHT-stimulated controls. Three biological replicates were included for each treatment/condition except the no-DHT induced controls, which were in biological duplicate.

Project description:Sequence specific suppression of androgen receptor-DNA binding in vivo by a Py-Im polyamide

Project description:The crucial role of androgen receptor in prostate cancer development is well documented, and its inhibition is a mainstay of prostate cancer treatment. Here we analyze the perturbations to the androgen receptor cistrome caused by a minor groove binding molecule that is designed to target a sequence found in a subset of androgen response elements. We find treatment with this pyrrole-imidazole polyamide exhibits sequence selectively in its repression of androgen receptor binding in vivo. Differentially changed loci are enriched for sequences resembling ARE half-sites that match the Py-Im polyamide binding preferences determined in vitro. Comparatively, permutations of ARE half-site bearing single or double mismatches to the Py-Im polyamide binding sequence are not enriched. This study represents an indirect determination of Py-Im polyamide binding preference in vivo using an unbiased approach.

Project description:Transcription mediated by hypoxia inducible factor (HIF-1) contributes to tumor angiogenesis and metastasis but is also involved in the activation of cell-death pathways and normal physiological processes. Given the complexity of HIF-1 signaling it could be advantageous to target a subset of HIF-1 effectors rather than the entire pathway. We compared the genome-wide effects of three molecules that each interfere with the HIF-1-DNA interaction: a polyamide targeted to the hypoxia response element (HRE), siRNA targeted to HIF-1α, and echinomycin, a DNA binding natural product with a similar but less specific sequence preference to the polyamide. The polyamide affects a subset of hypoxia-induced genes that are consistent with the binding site preferences of the polyamide. For comparison, siRNA targeted to HIF-1α and echinomycin each affect the expression of nearly every gene induced by hypoxia. Remarkably, the total number of genes affected by either polyamide or HIF-1α siRNA over a range of thresholds is comparable. The data shows how polyamides can be used to affect a subset of a pathway regulated by a transcription factor. In addition, this study offers a unique comparison of three complementary approaches towards exogenous control of endogenous gene expression. Experiment Overall Design: Hypoxia-mimetic DFO (deferoxamine)-stimulated U251 cells that were treated with polyamide 1, HIF-1α siRNA, and echinomycin were compared to control cells that were also DFO-stimulated. Cells not stimulated with DFO were also compared to the DFO-stimulated controls. Three biological replicates were included for each treatment/condition.

Project description:Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men and AR downstream signalings promote prostate cancer cell proliferation. Oct1 is an AR interacting partner and regulates the transcriptional activity of AR. In order to investigate the Oct1 function in prostate cancer cells, we performed gene expression in AR-positive prostate cancer cell lines after siOct1 or pyrrole-imidazole (PI) polyamide targeting Oct1-binding treatment. We also treated cells with vehicle or androgen to analyze the effects of Oct1 on AR function. Observation of androgen dependent gene expression changes after treatment with siOct1 or polyamide targeting Oct1 with microarray.
