The estrogen receptor (ER) protects against debilitating effects of the inflammatory response by inhibiting the pro-inflammatory transcription factor NF
B. Heretofore CBP has been suggested to mediate inhibitory cross-talk by functioning either as a scaffold that links ER and NF
B or as a required cofactor that competitively binds to one or the other transcriptional factor. However, here we demonstrate that ER is recruited to the NF
B response element of the MCP-1 and IL-8 promoters and displaces CBP, but not p65 in the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line. In contrast, ER displaced p65 and associated coregulators from the IL-6 promoter, demonstrating a gene specific role for CBP in integrating inflammatory and steroid signaling. Further, RNA interference and over-expression studies demonstrated that CBP dosage regulates estrogen-mediated suppression of MCP-1 and IL-8, but not IL-6 gene expression. This work further demonstrates that CBP dosage is a critical regulator of gene-specific signal integration between the ER and NF
B signaling pathways.
