e have investigated the role of corepressor N-CoR1 in ERα(+) breat cancer cells. The nuclear receptor corepressor NCoR1 plays
an important role in the TNF-alpha-mediated apoptosis. but little is known about what regulates ER alpha-NCoR complex in
breast cancer cells. Therefore, we have found that TNF-alpha markedly down-regulates NCoR1 protein levels in ERα(+) MCF7 breast
cancer cells. Also, the reduced NCoR1 expression by TNF-α was induced the down-regulation of ERα protein levels in the MCF7
cells. This result suggests that NCoR1 expression may be involved in the TNF-α-mediated apoptosis of ERα(+) breast cancer cells.
Interestingly, the phosphorylation of NCoR1 by CK2 inhibited the ubiquitin-dependent proteasomal degradation of NCoR1 in the
TNF-a-treated MCF7 breast cancer cells. Eventually, the down-regulation of NCoR1 and ER by TNF-α was increased the activation of
p53. Thus, our results show a mechanism by which the TNF-α treatment induces the dissociation of ERa-NCoR-p53 complexes and
activiates the p53-dependent pro-apoptosis target genes through the acetylation of p53. These findings reveal that ERɑ -p53-NCoR1
complexes represses the transcription activity of apoptosis genes, such as p21, Bax and Puma.
