Transcriptional Network Analysis Identifies BACH1 as a Master Regulator of Breast Cancer Bone Metastasis

The application of functional genomic analysis of breast cancer metastasis has led to the identification of a growing number of organ-specific metastasis genes, which often function in concert to facilitate different steps of the metastatic cascade. However, the gene regulatory network that controls...

description The application of functional genomic analysis of breast cancer metastasis has led to the identification of a growing number of organ-specific metastasis genes, which often function in concert to facilitate different steps of the metastatic cascade. However, the gene regulatory network that controls the expression of these metastasis genes remains largely unknown. Here, we demonstrate a computational approach for the deconvolution of transcriptional networks to discover master regulators of breast cancer bone metastasis. Several known regulators of breast cancer bone metastasis such as Smad4 and HIF1 were identified in our analysis. Experimental validation of the networks revealed BACH1, a basic leucine zipper transcription factor, as the common regulator of several functional metastasis genes, including MMP1 and CXCR4. Ectopic expression of BACH1 enhanced the malignance of breast cancer cells, and conversely, BACH1 knockdown significantly reduced bone metastasis. The expression of BACH1 and its target genes was linked to the higher risk of breast cancer recurrence in patients. This study established BACH1 as the master regulator of breast cancer bone metastasis and provided a paradigm to identify molecular determinants in complex pathological processes. Background: The transcriptional network governing cancer metastasis is largely unexplored. Results: BACH1 regulates multiple metastasis genes and promotes breast cancer metastasis to bone. Conclusion: BACH1 is a master regulator of breast cancer bone metastasis and transcriptional network reverse engineering is helpful to identify novel functional genes of metastasis. Significance: This study provides a systems biology approach to identify master regulators of complicated biological processes.
