Tamoxifen is effective for treating estrogen receptor-alpha (ER) positive breast
cancers. However, few molecular mediators of tamoxifen resistance have been
elucidated. Here we describe a previously unidentified gene, MACROD2 that confers
tamoxifen resistance and estrogen independent growth. We found MACROD2 is
amplified and overexpressed in metastatic tamoxifen-resistant tumors. Transgene
overexpression of MACROD2 in breast cancer cell lines results in tamoxifen
resistance, whereas RNAi-mediated gene knock down reverses this phenotype.
MACROD2 overexpression also leads to estrogen independent growth in xenograft
assays. Mechanistically, MACROD2 increases p300 binding to estrogen response
elements in a subset of ER regulated genes. Primary breast cancers and matched
metastases demonstrate MACROD2 expression can change with disease evolution, and
increased expression and amplification of MACROD2 in primary tumors is associated
with worse overall survival. These studies establish MACROD2 as a key mediator of
estrogen independent growth and tamoxifen resistance, as well as a potential
novel target for diagnostics and therapy.
