By performing multiomic profiling, we recently revealed distinct super-enhancer (SE) patterns in different subtypes of breast cancer and identified a number of TNBC-specific SEs that drive oncogene expression. One of these SEs, TCOF1 SE, was discovered to play an important oncogenic role in TNBC. However, the molecular mechanisms by which TCOF1 SE promotes the expression of the TCOF1 gene remain to be elucidated. Here, by using combinatorial approaches of DNA pull-down assay, bioinformatics analysis and functional studies, we identified FOSL1 as a key transcription factor that binds to TCOF1 SE and drives its overexpression. shRNA-mediated depletion of FOSL1 results in significant downregulation of TCOF1 mRNA and protein levels. Using a dual-luciferase reporter assay and ChIP-qPCR, we showed that binding of FOSL1 to TCOF1 SE promotes the transcription of TCOF1 in TNBC cells. Importantly, our data demonstrated that overexpression of FOSL1 drives the activation of TCOF1 SE. Lastly, depletion of FOSL1 inhibits tumor spheroid growth and stemness properties of TNBC cells. Taken together, these findings uncover the key epigenetic role of FOSL1 and highlight the potential of targeting the FOSL1-TCOF1 axis for TNBC treatment.</p>","PeriodicalId":49253,"journal":{"name":"Epigenetics & Chromatin","volume":"17 1","pages":"34"},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2024-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11552368/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142631266","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, how chromatin signatures are linked to this dynamic expression pattern across different blood cell lineages remains uncharacterized. Here, we performed an in-depth analysis of the relationships between gene expression, chromatin structure, 3D architecture, and trans-acting factors at PU.1 cis-regulatory elements (PCREs). By identifying phylogenetically conserved DNA elements within chromatin-accessible regions in primary human blood lineages, we discovered multiple novel candidate PCREs within the upstream region of the human PU.1 locus. A subset of these elements localizes within an 8-kb-wide cluster exhibiting enhancer features, including open chromatin, demethylated DNA, enriched enhancer histone marks, present enhancer RNAs, and PU.1 occupation, presumably mediating PU.1 autoregulation. Importantly, we revealed the presence of a common 35-kb-wide CTCF-flanked insulated neighborhood that contains the PCRE cluster (PCREC), forming a chromatin territory for lineage-specific and PCRE-mediated chromatin interactions. These include functional PCRE-promoter interactions in myeloid and B cells that are absent in erythroid and T cells. By correlating chromatin structure and 3D architecture with PU.1 expression in various lineages, we were able to attribute enhancer versus silencer functions to individual elements. Our findings provide mechanistic insights into the interplay between dynamic chromatin structure and 3D architecture in the chromatin regulation of PU.1 expression.
