    Abstract: Selective estrogen receptor (ER) modulators have been the most commonly used neoadjuvant therapy for hormone-dependent breast cancer. However, resistance to endocrine therapy, either inherent or acquired during treatment, presents a major challenge in disease management. The causes of resistance to hormone therapy are not well understood and are the subject of active investigation. It is increasingly clear that decreasing sensitivity of ER-positive breast cancer cells to antiestrogens is caused by several factors. Cross talk between ER and growth factor signaling has emerged as a critical factor in endocrine resistance. Here, we present evidence that receptor tyrosine kinase signaling also plays a role in resistance by controlling the subcellular localization of ER signaling components. Localization of ER in either the nuclear or cytoplasmic compartments has functional implications. Recent work suggests that dynein light chain 1, a recently identified substrate of p21-activated kinase 1, modulates ER transactivation functions through a novel ER coactivator function. Likewise, receptor tyrosine kinase signaling can also alter the expression of ER coregulators such as metastasis-associated antigen 1, leading to hormonal independence. Furthermore, proline-, glutamic acid-, leucine-rich protein 1, an ER coactivator involved in both genomic and nongenomic signaling pathways, is activated by epidermal growth factor receptor and plays a prominent role in resistance to tamoxifen. These recent advances suggest new targeted therapeutic approaches that may lead to either reversion or prevention of endocrine resistance in breast tumors.

    Abstract: Steroid hormone receptors are ligand-dependent transcription factors that control a variety of essential physiologic and developmental processes in humans. The functional activity of a steroid receptor is regulated not only by hormones but also by an array of regulatory proteins such as coactivators, corepressors, and chromatin modifiers. Contrary to an earlier notion that corepressors and coactivators exist in separate complexes, these molecules, which have apparently opposite functions, are increasingly being found in the same complex, which allows for efficient transcriptional control mechanisms. These control mechanisms are in turn regulated by an array of post-translational modifications under the influence of upstream and local signaling networks. Because the outcome of steroidal hormone receptor transcriptional complexes is measured in terms of the expression of target genes, any dysregulation of coregulator complexes perturbs normal homeostasis and could contribute to the development and maintenance of malignant phenotypes. Increasing evidence implicating steroid hormone receptors and their coregulators in various pathophysiologic conditions has elicited interest in their structure and biology. Further advances in this field of study should open up a unique window for novel targeted therapies for diseases such as cancer. Here we briefly review the clinical relevance of corepressors, with a particular focus on their role in the development of cancerous phenotypes.

    Abstract: Transcription, splicing, and translation are potentially coordinately regulatable in a temporospatial-dependent manner, although supporting experimental evidence for this notion is scarce. Yeast two-hybrid screening of a mammary gland cDNA library with human p21-activated kinase 1 (Pak1) as bait identified polyC-RNA-binding protein 1 (PCBP1), which controls translation from mRNAs containing the DICE (differentiation control element). Mitogenic stimulation of human cells phosphorylated PCBP1 on threonines 60 and 127 in a Pak1-sensitive manner. Pak1-dependent phosphorylation of PCBP1 released its binding and translational inhibition from a DICE-minigene. Overexpression of PCBP1 also inhibited the translation of the endogenous L1 cell adhesion molecule mRNA, which contains two DICE motifs in the 3′ untranslated region. We also found that Pak1 activation led to an increased nuclear retention of PCBP1, recruitment to the eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E (eIF4E) promoter, and stimulation of eIF4E expression in a Pak1-sensitive manner. Moreover, mitogenic stimulation promoted Pak1- and PCBP1-dependent alternative splicing and exon inclusion from a CD44 minigene. The alternative splicing functions of PCBP1 were in turn mediated by its intrinsic interaction with Caper α, a U2 snRNP auxiliary factor-related protein previously implicated in RNA splicing. These findings establish the principle that a single coregulator can function as a signal-dependent and coordinated regulator of transcription, splicing, and translation.

    Abstract: Here we define a function of metastasis-associated protein 1 (MTA1), a presumed corepressor of estrogen receptor α (ERα), as a transcriptional activator of Breast Cancer Amplified Sequence 3 (BCAS3), a gene amplified and overexpressed in breast cancers. We identified BCAS3 as a MTA1 chromatin target in a functional genomic screen. MTA1 stimulation of BCAS3 transcription required ERα and involved a functional ERE half-site in BCAS3 . Furthermore, we discovered that MTA1 is acetylated on lysine 626, and that this acetylation is necessary for a productive transcriptional recruitment of RNA polymerase II complex to the BCAS3 enhancer sequence. BCAS3 expression was elevated in mammary tumors from MTA1 transgenic mice and 60% of the human breast tumors, and correlated with the coexpression of MTA1 as well as with tumor grade and proliferation of primary breast tumor samples. These findings reveal a previously unrecognized function of MTA1 in stimulating BCAS3 expression and suggest an important role for MTA1-BCAS3 pathway in promoting cancerous phenotypes in breast tumor cells.
