title: Negative regulation of hormone signaling by RIP140.
abstract: Receptor interacting protein (RIP) 140 is a negative transcriptional regulator of nuclear hormone receptors which is required for the maintenance of energy homeostasis and ovulation. Despite its recruitment by agonist-liganded receptors, this protein exhibits a strong repressive activity which was initially attributed to competition with coactivator binding on nuclear receptors. However, RIP140 also exerts active repression implicating the Carboxyl-terminal binding proteins (CtBPs) and histone deacetylases (HDACs). We recently demonstrated that the Carboxyl-terminal region of the molecule contains two additional silencing domains which require post-translational modifications to be fully active. In human breast cancer cells, RIP140 expression is up-regulated at the transcriptional level by various ligands of nuclear receptors. We have recently cloned the human RIP140 gene and defined the mechanism of its regulation by estrogens. In order to better characterize the role of RIP140 in hormone signaling, we have studied its interaction with the androgen receptor and demonstrated its ability to repress transcriptional regulation by androgens. RIP140 also inhibits transactivation by estrogen receptor-related receptors (ERRalpha, beta and gamma) on natural or artificial reporter genes containing different types of response elements. Surprisingly, RIP140 positively regulates ERR transactivation when the receptors are recruited to target promoters through interaction with the Sp1 transcription factor and this effect could involve titration of histone deacetylases. Altogether, these results underline that transcriptional regulation of hormone signaling by the cofactor RIP140 involves complex mechanisms relying on multiple domains and partners.
