  2. Endocrine Dependency in Breast Cancer • Breast cancer tumors can be divided into two basic types : • Endocrine-dependent tumors • Endocrine-independent tumors • About 75 % of breast cancers are estrogen receptor (ER) and/or progesterone receptor (PgR) positive and therefore are suitable for endocrine therapy American Cancer Society. Breast Cancer Facts and Figures2003-2004 ; Jemal et al. CA Cancer J Clin. 2004 ; 54 : 8-29 ;Rhodes et al. J Clin Pathol. 2000 ; 53 : 688-696; Johnston et al. Nat Rev Cancer. 2003 ; 3 : 821-831.

  5. GATA-3 directed fate of breast stem cells GATA-3 is a transcription factor that binds to the regulatory region (promoter) of the gene encoding FoxA1. FoxA1 might interact with Erα and bind to the ERα gene promoter to turn on the transcription of ERα target genes, which include FoxA1 and ERα. Reduction of FoxA1 might hinder the action of the ER, which is required for ductal- and lobuloalveolar-cell development and drives cell proliferation in breast tumours Tong et al: Nature 2007

  10. RECETTORI ESTROGENICI: ERα • Attività genomica classica (nucleare) – attività NISS (Nuclear Initiated Steroid Signaling) • Attività genomica non classica (nucleare) • Attività non genomica o non trascrizionale (membrana) – attività MISS (Membrane Initiated Steroid Signaling)

  14. Ligand-induced conformations of the receptors Modulation of receptor by ligand and helix 12 position Helix 12 covers the ligand pocket after it has bound, and form the landing platform for coregulators, that drive all the subsequent reactions Different ligands can induce different conformation changes, different coregulation recruitment and different functions

  15. GATA-3 turn on the Era transcription BRCA1 and HSP 90 exert a strong control on Era

  16. BRCA-1 and ER • The only known enzymatic activity associated with BRCA1 is its activity as a ubiquitin protein ligase • Attachment of ubiquitin to substrates is a versatile method of regulation involved in practically all aspects of cell biology. Substrate ubiquitination involves several steps and a well-known trio of enzymes called ubiquitin activating (E1), ubiquitin conjugating (E2), and ubiquitin ligase (E3).

  18. Ligand-induced estrogen receptor α degradation by the proteasome

  19. Hsp-90 and ER The molecular chaperone heat shock protein (hsp)-90 maintains estrogen receptor (ER)-a in an active conformation, allowing to bind 17h-estradiol (E2) and transactivate genes, including progesterone receptor (PR)-h and the class IIB histone deacetylase HDAC6. The latter, in turn, exert its own control on (hsp)-90

  20. Hsp-90 and ER Inhibition of histone deacetylase HDAC6 determines the Hyperacetylation of hsp90 • Hyperacetylation of hsp90 inhibits its chaperone function, thereby depletingh hsp90 client proteins Warren Fiskus, Clin Cancer Res 2007

  21. Antiestrogen Therapies • Reduction of estradiol levels in host and tumor • LHRH superagonists, aromatase inhibitors (anastrozole, letrozole, exemestane) • Selective ER modulators (SERMs) with agonistic and antagonistic activity • Tamoxifen • ER modulators with pure antagonistic activity (receptor downregulation) • Fulvestrant

  25. RESISTENZA ORMONALE: IPOTESI Uno dei meccanismi alla base della resistenza ormonale al Tamoxifene e agli Inibitori delle Aromatasi sembra essere la capacità delle chinasi attivate da numerosi recettori di membrana (EGFR, HER2/NEU, IGFR, etc) di amplificare il segnale di trascrizione del recettore per gli estrogeni

  29. RESISTENZA ORMONALE IPOTESI La resistenza agli inibitori delle aromatasi potrebbe essere dovuta ad un aumentata sensibilità all’estradiolo durate la deprivazione a lungo termine da estrogeni (LTED)
