    Abstract Breast cancer presents as multiple distinct disease entities. Each tumor harbors diverse cell populations defining a phenotypic heterogeneity that impinges on our ability to treat patients. To date, efforts mainly focused on genetic variants to find drivers of inter- and intratumor phenotypic heterogeneity. However, these efforts have failed to fully capture the genetic basis of breast cancer. Through recent technological and analytical approaches, the genetic basis of phenotypes can now be decoded by characterizing chromatin variants. These variants correspond to polymorphisms in chromatin states at DNA sequences that serve a distinct role across cell populations. Here, we review the function and causes of chromatin variants as they relate to breast cancer inter- and intratumor heterogeneity and how they can guide the development of treatment alternatives to fulfill the goal of precision cancer medicine.

    Abstract This article presents optical images, measurements of heat affected zone depths, and peak Vickers hardness values from the heat affected zone regions of a 1080 steel plate substrate with a machined groove “flaw” repaired using additive friction stir deposition of Aermet 100. The deposition of Aermet 100 was performed using a L3 Meld machine with 9.525 mm (0.375 inch) square bar profile Aermet 100 feedstock rods fed through a hollow, 10.16 mm (0.4 inch) diameter, rotating tool onto a 1.02 mm thick 1080 steel plate with a machined groove “flaw” along the plate's length and bisecting the plate's width. The depth of the machined groove “flaw” ranged from 4.7625, 6.35, and 9.525 mm. The data is categorized into four groups: multi-layer builds deposited at room temperature with and without a cooling plate, 2-layer builds deposited at room temperature without a cooling plate, single-layer builds deposited at room temperature without a cooling plate, and a design of experiments for single-layer builds that varied the spindle rotation speed (RPM), travel speed (mm/min), material feed rate (mm/min), and pre-heat temperature (°C) of the deposition. The data shows the parameter conditions that achieved flaw-free consolidated repairs and the associated depth and peak Vickers hardness of the heat affected zone. Optical images of cross-sectioned deposition regions were obtained using an optical microscope with Leco Olympus DP27 macro camera, and Vickers hardness line traces were measured along the depth of the deposited and heat affected zone extending into the substrate on cross-sectioned samples using a Leco LM 247AT microhardness tester. The depth of the heat affected zone is reported as the measured average of five individual data points. Peak values for Vickers hardness for the heat affected zone decreased for pre-heated conditions at 329°C compared to builds conducted at room temperature of 21°C. This dataset provides visual characterization and associated hardness measurements of as-deposited repairs of dissimilar steel alloys. This article can be used to inform parameter selection for additive friction stir deposition of dissimilar steel materials for repair and solid-state additive manufacturing applications.

    Abstract Despite their abundance, mid-sized RNAs (30-300 nt) have not been extensively studied by high-throughput sequencing, mostly due to selective loss in library preparation. The authors propose simple and inexpensive modifications to the Illumina TruSeq protocol (ncRNAseq), allowing the capture and sequencing of mid-sized non-coding RNAs without detriment to the coverage of coding mRNAs. This protocol is coupled with a two-step alignment: a pre-alignment to a curated non-coding genome, passing only the non-mapping reads to a standard genomic alignment. ncRNAseq correctly assigns the highest read-numbers to established abundant non-coding RNAs and correctly identifies cytosolic and nuclear enrichment of known non-coding RNAs in two cell lines.

    Abstract Antibody-drug conjugates containing peroxide-cleavable arylboronic acid linkers are described, which target the high levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cancer.

    Abstract Fatigue properties of polyetheretherketone (PEEK) and multiwall carbon nanotube (CNT) reinforced PEEK were investigated with the ultrasonic fatigue testing method. Lifetimes were measured in the high and very high cycle fatigue regime at resonance frequency 19 kHz and load ratio R = -1. Pulse-pause loading served to avoid specimen self-heating and led to effective cycling frequencies in the range from several hundred Hz to about two kHz.

    Abstract Considerable work has linked hormone receptors, such as estrogen receptor-alpha (ER), with the pioneer factor FOXA1. Altered FOXA1 levels contribute to endocrine-resistant breast cancer, where it maintains ER-chromatin interactions, even in contexts in which cells are refractory to ER-targeted drugs. A recent study controversially suggests that FOXA1 binding can be induced by hormonal pathways, including the estrogen-ER complex. We now show that the vast majority (>99%) of FOXA1 binding events are unaffected by steroid activation. A small number (<1%) of FOXA1 binding sites appear to be induced by estrogen, but these are created from chromatin interactions between ER binding sites and adjacent FOXA1 binding sites and do not represent genuine new FOXA1-pioneering elements. FOXA1 is therefore not regulated by estrogen and remains a bone fide pioneer factor that is entirely upstream of the ER complex.

    Abstract Background: The androgen receptor (AR) is a tumor suppressor in estrogen receptor (ER) positive breast cancer, a role sustained in some ER negative breast cancers. Key factors dictating AR genomic activity in a breast context are largely unknown. Herein, we employ an unbiased chromatin immunoprecipitation-based proteomic technique to identify endogenous AR interacting co-regulatory proteins in ER positive and negative models of breast cancer to gain new insight into mechanisms of AR signaling in this disease.
    Results: The DNA-binding factor GATA3 is identified and validated as a novel AR interacting protein in breast cancer cells irrespective of ER status. AR activation by the natural ligand 5α-dihydrotestosterone (DHT) increases nuclear AR-GATA3 interactions, resulting in AR-dependent enrichment of GATA3 chromatin binding at a sub-set of genomic loci. Silencing GATA3 reduces but does not prevent AR DNA binding and transactivation of genes associated with AR/GATA3 co-occupied loci, indicating a co-regulatory role for GATA3 in AR signaling. DHT-induced AR/GATA3 binding coincides with upregulation of luminal differentiation genes, including EHF and KDM4B, established master regulators of a breast epithelial cell lineage. These findings are validated in a patient-derived xenograft model of breast cancer. Interaction between AR and GATA3 is also associated with AR-mediated growth inhibition in ER positive and ER negative breast cancer.
    Conclusions: AR and GATA3 interact to transcriptionally regulate luminal epithelial cell differentiation in breast cancer regardless of ER status. This interaction facilitates the tumor suppressor function of AR and mechanistically explains why AR expression is associated with less proliferative, more differentiated breast tumors and better overall survival in breast cancer.
