Abstract

Prostate cancer (PCa) that becomes resistant to hormone castration and next-generation androgen receptor (AR)-targeted therapies, called castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), poses a significant clinical challenge. A better understanding of PCa progression and key molecular mechanisms could bring novel therapies to light. One potential therapeutic target is ERG, a transcription factor aberrantly up-regulated in PCa due to chromosomal rearrangements between androgen-regulated gene TMPRSS2 and ERG. Here we show that the most common PCa-associated truncated ERG T1-E4 (ERGΔ39), encoded by fusion between TMPRSS2 exon 1 and ERG exon 4, binds to bromodomain-1 (BD1) of bromodomain containing protein 4 (BRD4), a member of the bromodomain and extraterminal domain (BET) family. This interaction is partially abrogated by BET inhibitors JQ1 and iBET762. Meta-analysis of published ERG (T1-E4) and BRD4 chromatin immunoprecipitation-sequencing (ChIP-seq) data demonstrates overlap in a substantial portion of their binding sites. Gene expression profile analysis shows some ERG-BRD4 co-target genes are upregulated in CRPC compared to hormone-naïve counterparts. We provide further evidence that ERG-mediated invasion of PCa cells was significantly enhanced by an acetylation-mimicking mutation in ERG that augments the ERG-BRD4 interaction. Our findings reveal that PCa-associated ERG can interact and co-occupy with BRD4 in the genome, and suggest this druggable interaction is critical for ERG-mediated cell invasion and PCa progression.

摘要

对激素去势和新一代雄激素受体(AR)靶向治疗产生耐药性的前列腺癌(PCa),即去势抵抗性前列腺癌(CRPC),构成了重大的临床挑战。更好地了解PCa的进展和关键分子机制可能会带来新的治疗方法。一个潜在的治疗靶点是ERG,它是一种转录因子,由于雄激素调节基因TMPRSS2和ERG之间的染色体重排,在PCa中异常上调。在这里,我们表明,由TMPRSS2外显子1和ERG外显子4融合编码的最常见的PCa相关截短型ERG T1-E4(ERGΔ39),与含溴结构域蛋白4(BRD4)的溴结构域-1(BD1)结合,BRD4是溴结构域和额外末端结构域(BET)家族的成员。BET抑制剂JQ1和iBET762可部分消除这种相互作用。对已发表的ERG(T1-E4)和BRD4染色质免疫沉淀测序(ChIP-seq)数据的荟萃分析表明,它们的大部分结合位点存在重叠。基因表达谱分析显示,与未接受激素治疗的对应物相比,一些ERG-BRD4共同靶向基因在CRPC中上调。我们进一步提供证据表明,ERG中一个模拟乙酰化的突变增强了ERG-BRD4相互作用,从而显著增强了ERG介导的PCa细胞侵袭。我们的研究结果表明,PCa相关的ERG可以在基因组中与BRD4相互作用并共同占据,并且表明这种可药物化的相互作用对于ERG介导的细胞侵袭和PCa进展至关重要。
