MED19 encodes two unique protein isoforms that confer prostate cancer growth under low androgen through distinct gene expression programs
© 2023. Springer Nature Limited..
MED19, a component of the mediator complex and a co-regulator of the androgen receptor (AR), is pivotal in prostate cancer cell proliferation. MED19 has two isoforms: a full-length "canonical" and a shorter "alternative" variant. Specific antibodies were developed to investigate these isoforms. Both exhibit similar expression in normal prostate development and adult prostate tissue, but the canonical isoform is elevated in prostate adenocarcinomas. Overexpression of canonical MED19 in LNCaP cells promotes growth under conditions of androgen deprivation in vitro and in vivo, mirroring earlier findings with alternative MED19-overexpressing LNCaP cells. Interestingly, alternative MED19 cells displayed strong colony formation in clonogenic assays under conditions of androgen deprivation, while canonical MED19 cells did not, suggesting distinct functional roles. These isoforms also modulated gene expression differently. Canonical MED19 triggered genes related to extracellular matrix remodeling while suppressing those involved in androgen-inactivating glucuronidation. In contrast, alternative MED19 elevated genes tied to cell movement and reduced those associated with cell adhesion and differentiation. The ratio of MED19 isoform expression in prostate cancers shifts with the disease stage. Early-stage cancers exhibit higher canonical MED19 expression than alternative MED19, consistent with canonical MED19's ability to promote cell proliferation under androgen deprivation. Conversely, alternative MED19 levels were higher in later-stage metastatic prostate cancer than in canonical MED19, reflecting alternative MED19's capability to enhance cell migration and autonomous cell growth. Our findings suggest that MED19 isoforms play unique roles in prostate cancer progression and highlights MED19 as a potential therapeutic target for both early and late-stage prostate cancer.
