Two-sided Student’s t-tests were performed to assign significance for cellular phenotypic assays and metabolite levels. Only reproducible binding sites identified by replicate ChIP-seq experiments were reported and used for downstream analyses. ChIP-seq peaks were identified using MACS peak caller [51 ], while motif analysis was performed using MEME [52 (link)] on the top 500 most enriched binding sites. For normalized ChIP-seq read-depth analyses, the number of reads were tabulated across binding site coordinates and normalized to the total number of aligned reads obtained for each ChIP-seq experiment. For mapping reads, we utilized a 100-bp sequence centered on the peak summit of each binding site. For ranking temporal changes in read depth, we generated a linear model comparing replicate ChIP-seq read enrichment values between two time points. Sites with altered enrichment were subsequently divided by slope and p value ranked. The top 50 % of p value-ranked sites from each category were used for cofactor motif analyses. For assigning TF motif fold enrichments, we compared the total number of motifs found across a set of binding sites with the number of motifs identified after scrambling binding site sequences. For RNAP2 read depth promoter analyses, sequences within 500 bp of transcription start sites were used as promoters. Connectivity maps were generated using Cytoscape (http://www.cytoscape.org/) and Enrichment map [53 (link)]. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) gene pathway enrichments were generated using Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA; http://software.broadinstitute.org/gsea/msigdb/annotate.jsp). Wilcoxon rank sum tests were used to assign significance for H3K36me3 enrichment analyses. Differential gene expression was determined using DESeq [54 (link)]. High-confidence GW3965 + T0901317 responsive genes were assigned for all targets that passed significance and fold change cutoffs across both drug treatments. For comparison of gene expression with RNAP2 and H3K36me3 occupancy, if a gene harbored multiple promoters and/or transcripts, the promoter and/or gene body coordinate exhibiting the strongest read enrichment was used.

This investigation conformed to the National Institutes of Health Guidelines on the Use of Laboratory Animals, and was approved by the Institute’s Animal Ethics Committee. Experiments were performed on wild type (WT) C57BL/6 and LXR-deficient [LXRα-, LXRβ-, or LXRα/β double-knockout (KO)] male mice. Pharmacologic experiments employed LXR endogenous agonist 22(R)-hydroxycholesterol [22(R)-HC] and synthetic agonist GW3965.14 (link), 15 (link) In the acute MI/R protocol, reperfusion commenced for 24 hours following 30 minutes of ischemia. Mice were randomly assigned to the following groups: sham, vehicle, 22(R)-HC (20 mg/kg), or GW3965 (20 mg/kg) by intraperitoneal injection (IP) 15 minutes before reperfusion. To observe the long-term cardioprotective effect of LXRα/β dual agonists, mice were randomly assigned to one of the following groups: sham, vehicle, 22(R)-HC (20 mg/kg), or GW3965 (20 mg/kg) by IP injection 15 minutes before reperfusion, and daily following reperfusion for 4 weeks. Other experiments were designed for MI/R outcome determination in LXRα-, β-, and α/β double-deficiency mice and their WT littermates. Myocardial apoptosis was determined by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) technique and cardiac caspase-3 activity. Myocardial infarct size was determined by Evans blue-TTC double staining methods.16 (link) In-vivo cardiac function was determined by echocardiography.17 (link) Viable myocardium was assessed via micro-positron emission tomography/computed tomography (micro-PET/CT) scanning. Myocardial reactive oxygen species generation was measured by confocal microscopy via in-situ dehydroetidium (DHE) stain or lucigenin-enhanced chemiluminescence. Myocardial nitrative stress was assessed by nitrotyrosine content. In-vivo knockdown of cardiac-specific LXRα or LXRβ expression was achieved by intramyocardial delivery of siRNA. In-vivo cardiac gene overexpression was achieved by adenoviral-encoded LXRα or LXRβ transfection. An expanded Methods appears in the Data Supplement.

Primary peritoneal macrophages were obtained from thioglycollate-treated mice 4 days after injection. For bone marrow-derived macrophages, bone marrow was isolated from femurs and tibias, and differentiated in DMEM supplemented with 20% fetal bovine serum (FBS), 30% L929 conditioned medium and antibiotics for 6–7 days. MEFs were immortalized by the SV40 Large T antigen retrovirus and selected with puromycin. Immortalized bone marrow-derived macrophages were obtained as previously described (Blasi et al., 1985 (link); Gandino and Varesio, 1990 (link)). To reconstitute immortalized bone marrow derived macrophages from LXR-deficient mice with LXR wild-type or mutants, retrovirus supernatants from Phoenix E cells transfected with the expression vectors were infected to immortalized macrophages. The iBMDM stably expressing wild-type LXRα, LXRβ or mutants were obtained by 300 µg/ml of hygromycin B (Invitrogen). For RNAi experiments in macrophages, cells were transfected with control or ON-TARGETplus SMARTpool siRNAs (25 nM, Dharmacon) targeted RXRα, RXRβ, Ubc9, Hdac4, ABCA1, ABCG1 and TRAF6 using Darmafect 4 (Dharmacon). Cells were used for experiments after 48 hr incubation and target gene knockdown was validated by real-time PCR and Western Blot. For macrophage inflammatory responses, cells were placed in DMEM containing 0.5% FBS, 5 μM simvastatin, 100 μM mevalonic acid and 1 μM GW3965 or DMSO overnight. Cells were then stimulated with 10 ng/ml LPS or vehicle. For cellular cholesterol modification, bone marrow-derived macrophages were placed in DMEM containing 0.5% FBS, 5 μM simvastatin plus 100 μM mevalonic acid for 4 hr, then incubated with complexes of randomly methylated cyclodextrin (Trappsol) and cholesterol (Sigma–Aldrich) (CD/Chol, 100 μM) to overload with cholesterol (Klein et al., 1995 (link)) or hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (Trappsol) (CD, 10 mM) to deplete cholesterol for 1 hr and stimulated with LPS (10 ng/ml) for 4 hr.

Example 23

We have demonstrated that LXR agonists inhibit in vitro cancer progression phenotypes in breast cancer, pancreatic cancer, and renal cancer. To investigate if LXR agonist treatment inhibits breast cancer primary tumor growth in vivo, mice injected with MDA-468 human breast cancer cells were treated with either a control diet or a diet supplemented with LXR agonist GW3965 2 (FIG. 36).

To determine the effect of orally delivered GW3965 2 on breast cancer tumor growth, 2×106 MDA-468 human breast cancer cells were resuspended in 50 μL PBS and 50 μL matrigel and the cell suspension was injected into both lower memory fat pads of 7-week-old Nod Scid gamma female mice. The mice were assigned to a control diet treatment or a GW3965-supplemented diet treatment (75 mg/kg/day) two days prior to injection of the cancer cells. The GW3965 2 drug compound was formulated in the mouse chow by Research Diets, Inc. Tumor dimensions were measured using digital calipers, and tumor volume was calculated as (small diameter)2×(large diameter)/2.

Treatment with GW3965 resulted in significant reduction in breast cancer tumor size in vivo (FIG. 36).

Example 11

Small molecule agonists of the Liver X Receptor (LXR) have previously been shown to increase Apo E levels. To investigate whether increasing Apo-E levels via LXR activation resulted in therapeutic benefit, assays were carried out to assess the effect of the LXR agonist GW3965 [chemical name: 3-[3-[N-(2-Chloro-3-trifluoromethylbenzyl)-(2,2-diphenylethyl)amino]propyloxy]phenylacetic acid hydrochloride) on Apo-E levels, tumor cell invasion, endothelial recruitment, and in vivo melanoma metastasis (FIG. 10). Incubation of parental MeWo cells in the presence of therapeutic concentrations of GW3965 increased expression of ApoE and DNAJA4 (FIGS. 10A and 10B). Pre-treatment of MeWO cells with GW3965 decreased tumor cell invasion (FIG. 10C) and endothelial recruitment (FIG. 10D). To test whether GW3965 could inhibit metastasis in vivo, mice were administered a grain-based chow diet containing GW3965 (20 mg/kg) or a control diet, and lung metastasis was assayed using bioluminescence after tail-vein injection of 4×104 parental MeWo cells into the mice (FIG. 10E). Oral administration of GW3965 to the mice in this fashion resulted in a significant reduction in in vivo melanoma metastasis (FIG. 10E).
