Estrogen-Related Receptor Alpha: an Under-Appreciated Potential Target for the Treatment of Metabolic Diseases
International Journal of Molecular Sciences Review Estrogen-Related Receptor Alpha: An Under-Appreciated Potential Target for the Treatment of Metabolic Diseases Madhulika Tripathi, Paul Michael Yen and Brijesh Kumar Singh * Laboratory of Hormonal Regulation, Cardiovascular and Metabolic Disorders Program, Duke-NUS Medical School, Singapore 169857, Singapore; [email protected] (M.T.); [email protected] (P.M.Y.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 7 February 2020; Accepted: 24 February 2020; Published: 28 February 2020 Abstract: The estrogen-related receptor alpha (ESRRA) is an orphan nuclear receptor (NR) that significantly influences cellular metabolism. ESRRA is predominantly expressed in metabolically-active tissues and regulates the transcription of metabolic genes, including those involved in mitochondrial turnover and autophagy. Although ESRRA activity is well-characterized in several types of cancer, recent reports suggest that it also has an important role in metabolic diseases. This minireview focuses on the regulation of cellular metabolism and function by ESRRA and its potential as a target for the treatment of metabolic disorders. Keywords: estrogen-related receptor alpha; mitophagy; mitochondrial turnover; metabolic diseases; non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD); adipogenesis; adaptive thermogenesis 1. Introduction When the estrogen-related receptor alpha (ESRRA) was first cloned, it was found to be a nuclear receptor (NR) that had DNA sequence homology to the estrogen receptor alpha (ESR1) [1]. There are several examples of estrogen-related receptor (ESRR) and estrogen-signaling cross-talk via mutual transcriptional regulation or reciprocal binding to each other’s response elements of common target genes in a context-specific manner [2,3]. -

GATA3 Acts Upstream of FOXA1 in Mediating ESR1 Binding by Shaping Enhancer Accessibility
Downloaded from genome.cshlp.org on October 3, 2021 - Published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press Research GATA3 acts upstream of FOXA1 in mediating ESR1 binding by shaping enhancer accessibility Vasiliki Theodorou,1 Rory Stark,2 Suraj Menon,2 and Jason S. Carroll1,3,4 1Nuclear Receptor Transcription Lab, 2Bioinformatics Core, Cancer Research UK, Cambridge Research Institute, Li Ka Shing Centre, Cambridge CB2 0RE, United Kingdom; 3Department of Oncology, University of Cambridge, Cambridge CB2 OXZ, United Kingdom Estrogen receptor (ESR1) drives growth in the majority of human breast cancers by binding to regulatory elements and inducing transcription events that promote tumor growth. Differences in enhancer occupancy by ESR1 contribute to the diverse expression profiles and clinical outcome observed in breast cancer patients. GATA3 is an ESR1-cooperating transcription factor mutated in breast tumors; however, its genomic properties are not fully defined. In order to investigate the composition of enhancers involved in estrogen-induced transcription and the potential role of GATA3, we performed extensive ChIP-sequencing in unstimulated breast cancer cells and following estrogen treatment. We find that GATA3 is pivotal in mediating enhancer accessibility at regulatory regions involved in ESR1-mediated transcription. GATA3 silencing resulted in a global redistribution of cofactors and active histone marks prior to estrogen stimulation. These global genomic changes altered the ESR1-binding profile that subsequently occurred following estrogen, with events exhibiting both loss and gain in binding affinity, implying a GATA3-mediated redistribution of ESR1 binding. The GATA3-mediated redistributed ESR1 profile correlated with changes in gene expression, suggestive of its functionality. Chromatin loops at the TFF locus involving ESR1-bound enhancers occurred independently of ESR1 when GATA3 was silenced, indicating that GATA3, when present on the chromatin, may serve as a licensing factor for estrogen–ESR1-mediated interactions between cis-regulatory elements. -

The immune complexes are deposited in the glomerular mesangium, leading to inflammation and loss of renal function, but the complete pathophysiology of the disease is not understood. Using an integrated global transcriptomic and proteomic profiling approach, we investigated the role of the mesangium in the onset and progression of IgAN. Global gene expression was investigated by microarray analysis of the glomerular compartment of renal biopsy specimens from patients with IgAN (n=19) and controls (n=22). Using curated glomerular cell type–specific genes from the published literature, we found differential expression of a much higher percentage of mesangial cell–positive standard genes than podocyte-positive standard genes in IgAN. Principal coordinate analysis of expression data revealed clear separation of patient and control samples on the basis of mesangial but not podocyte cell–positive standard genes. -

Adiponectin Suppresses Gluconeogenic Gene Expression in Mouse Hepatocytes Independent of LKB1-AMPK Signaling
Adiponectin suppresses gluconeogenic gene expression in mouse hepatocytes independent of LKB1-AMPK signaling Russell A. Miller, … , Benoit Viollet, Morris J. Birnbaum J Clin Invest. 2011;121(6):2518-2528. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI45942. Research Article Metabolism The adipocyte-derived hormone adiponectin signals from the fat storage depot to regulate metabolism in peripheral tissues. Inversely correlated with body fat levels, adiponectin reduction in obese individuals may play a causal role in the symptoms of metabolic syndrome. Adiponectin lowers serum glucose through suppression of hepatic glucose production, an effect attributed to activation of AMPK. Here, we investigated the signaling pathways that mediate the effects of adiponectin by studying mice with inducible hepatic deletion of LKB1, an upstream regulator of AMPK. We found that loss of LKB1 in the liver partially impaired the ability of adiponectin to lower serum glucose, though other actions of the hormone were preserved, including reduction of gluconeogenic gene expression and hepatic glucose production as assessed by euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp. Furthermore, in primary mouse hepatocytes, the absence of LKB1, AMPK, or the transcriptional coactivator CRTC2 did not prevent adiponectin from inhibiting glucose output or reducing gluconeogenic gene expression. These results reveal that whereas some of the hormone’s actions in vivo may be LKB1 dependent, substantial LKB1-, AMPK-, and CRTC2-independent signaling pathways also mediate effects of adiponectin.
