Targeting estrogen receptor beta (ERβ) for treatment of ovarian cancer: importance of KDM6B and SIRT1 for ERβ expression and functionality

Abstract: Estrogen receptor (ER) β has growth inhibitory and chemo drug potentiating effect on ovarian cancer cells. We studied the dependence of ERβ function on the presence of KDM6B and SIRT1 in human ovarian cancer cells in vitro. Activation of ERβ with the subtype-selective agonist KB9520 resulted in significant inhibition of human ovarian cancer cell growth. KB9520-activated ERβ had an additive effect on growth inhibition in combination with cisplatin and paclitaxel, respectively. Loss of KDM6B expression had a neg… Show more

“…SIRT1 is inversely correlated to ERβ mRNA and protein levels, and the specific ERβ activator KB9520 strongly inhibits SIRT1 mRNA expression. These data collectively support the role of SIRT1 as a tumor promoter in OEC ( 4 ).…”

“…SIRT1 overexpression is reported by many authors as associated with poor outcome and chemoresistance in ovarian cancer of epithelial origin ( 23 25 ). Ovarian cells (both normal and tumoral) express two kinds of estrogen receptors (ER), ERα and ERβ which play different roles in cell proliferation and aggressiveness ( 4 ). Specifically, ERα is associated to a poor outcome, while ERβ expression corresponds, on the contrary, to a favorable outcome.…”

“…Shuang et al (16) found that SIRT1 could contribute to chemoresistance and the invasive capacity of OC cells, thereby boosting the proliferation of OC. Additionally, silencing of SIRT1 increases the protein expression of estrogen receptor β, which is regarded as an effective inhibitor of OC cells (17). On the other hand, SIRT3 exerts an antitumor effect on the induction of mitochondrial-dependent apoptosis via 5' AMP-activated protein kinase activation in OC cells (18).…”

“…11 Selective targeting of estrogen receptor α (ERα) with an agonist potentiates chemotherapy for treatment of ovarian cancer, and suppression of SIRT1 may accelerate this therapeutic effect. 12 A high glucose medium can inhibit the effect of many different agents. Testosterone regulates ß-cell mass, at least in part, by androgen receptor (AR) activation in ß-cells of male rats, and the ß-cell AR is degraded under hyperglycemic conditions.…”
