Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common non-cutaneous cancer in men. The
androgen receptor (AR), a ligand-activated transcription factor, constitutes the
main drug target for advanced cases of the disease. However, a variety of other
transcription factors and signaling networks have been shown to be altered in
patients and to influence AR activity. Amongst these, the oncogenic transcription
factor c-Myc has been studied extensively in multiple malignancies and elevated
protein levels of c-Myc are commonly observed in PCa. Its impact on AR activity,
however, remains elusive. In this study, we assessed the impact of c-Myc
overexpression on AR activity and transcriptional output in a PCa cell line model
and validated the antagonistic effect of c-MYC on AR-targets in patient samples.
We found that c-Myc overexpression partially reprogrammed AR chromatin occupancy
and was associated with altered histone marks distribution, most notably H3K4me1
and H3K27me3. We found c-Myc and the AR co-occupy a substantial number of binding
sites and these exhibited enhancer-like characteristics. Interestingly, c-Myc
overexpression antagonised clinically relevant AR target genes. Therefore, as an
example, we validated the antagonistic relationship between c-Myc and two AR
target genes, KLK3 (alias PSA, prostate specific antigen), and Glycine
N-Methyltransferase (GNMT), in patient samples. Our findings provide unbiased
evidence that MYC overexpression deregulates the AR transcriptional program,
which is thought to be a driving force in PCa.
