- W2001138013 abstract "CTRC-AACR San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium: 2008 AbstractsAbstract #4062 Background: The 40S ribosomal S6 kinase 1 (S6K1) acts downstream of the mammalian Target of Rapamycin (mTOR), and is sensitive to inhibition by rapamycin. Chromosomal region 17q23 containing the RPS6KB1 gene is frequently amplified in breast cancer cells, and S6K1 is overexpressed in about 30% of cases. Overexpression of S6K1 correlates with increased rapamycin sensitivity. The role of S6K1 in disease development and progression is supported by the observation that S6K1 overexpression is associated with poor prognosis in breast cancer patients. However, the reason for high-level amplification of the RPS6KB1 gene specifically in breast cancer, and not other cancer types, and the identity of breast cell-specific S6K1 targets is not well understood. In this study, we report that S6K1 regulates growth of breast cancer cells by phosphorylating Estrogen Receptor α (ERα), and co-expression of S6K1 and ERα in breast cancer cells renders them sensitive to combination therapy with rapamycin and tamoxifen. Materials and Methods: Using immunoblot analysis we determined expression levels of S6K1 in breast cancer cell lines, and the phosphorylation status of ERα on Ser167 after serum or mitogen stimulation. We compared the effect of low-serum media, and rapamycin and/or 4-hydroxytamoxifen (4-HT) addition on breast cancer cell proliferation using neutral red uptake assay. Results: We determined that overexpression of S6K1 in breast cancer cells confers proliferative advantage in low serum, contributing to neoplastic transformation. Next, we wished to identify targets of S6K1 in control of proliferation of breast cancer cells. One of the proteins we identified as a target of S6K1 is ERα. ERα is frequently co-overexpressed with S6K1 in breast cancer cells, which could be an indication of co-selection, and ERα contains a putative S6K1 phosphorylation motif RERLAS167. We confirmed that ERα phosphorylation may be mediated by S6K1. We shown that in S6K1-overexpressing MCF7 cells, serum-stimulated ERα phosphorylation is rapamycin-sensitive. Moreover, ERα phosphorylation stimulated by insulin and tumor-promoting phorbol esters is also rapamycin-sensitive. S6K1 can phosphorylate ERα in an in vitro kinase assay. Lastly, shRNA-mediated suppression of S6K1 expression in MCF7 cells reduces ERα phosphorylation. Subsequently, we examined whether co-overexpression of S6K1 and ERα in breast cancer cells sensitizes them to combination therapy with rapamycin and tamoxifen. We analyzed proliferation of cells treated with rapamycin and/or 4-HT. We observed that in S6K1- and ERα-overexpressing cells, treatment with rapamycin and 4-HT resulted in greater inhibition of cell growth. Discussion: Our data suggest that one of the targets of S6K1 signaling in breast cancer cells is ERα, and together, these proteins promote breast cancer cell proliferation. The ultimate objective would be to determine whether combined inhibition of S6K1 and the estrogen receptor could be used as targeted therapy for patients with double positive expression of S6K1 and ER.Citation Information: Cancer Res 2009;69(2 Suppl):Abstract nr 4062." @default.
