Oesophageal adenocarcinoma (OAC) is one of the most common causes of cancer deaths. Barrett’s oesophagus (BO) is the only known precancerous precursor to OAC, but our understanding about the molecular events leading to OAC development is limited. Here, we have integrated gene expression and chromatin accessibility profiles of human biopsies and identified a strong cell cycle gene expression signature in OAC compared to BO. Through analysing associated chromatin accessibility changes, we have implicated the transcription factor KLF5 in the transition from BO to OAC. Importantly, we show that KLF5 expression is unchanged during this transition, but instead, KLF5 is redistributed across chromatin to directly regulate cell cycle genes specifically in OAC cells. This new KLF5 target gene programme has potential prognostic significance as high levels correlate with poorer patient survival. Thus, the repurposing of KLF5 for novel regulatory activity in OAC provides new insights into the mechanisms behind disease progression.

AbstractOesophageal adenocarcinoma (OAC) is one of the most common causes of cancer deaths and yet compared to other common cancers, we know relatively little about the underlying molecular mechanisms. Barrett’s oesophagus (BO) is the only known precancerous precursor to OAC, but our understanding about the specific events leading to OAC development is limited. Here, we have integrated gene expression and chromatin accessibility profiles of human biopsies of BO and OAC and identified a strong cell cycle gene expression signature in OAC compared to BO. Through analysing associated chromatin accessibility changes, we have implicated the transcription factor KLF5 in the transition from BO to OAC. Importantly, we show that KLF5 expression is unchanged during this transition, but instead, KLF5 is redistributed across chromatin in OAC cells to directly regulate cell cycle genes specifically in OAC. Our findings have potential prognostic significance as the survival of patients with high expression of KLF5 target genes is significantly lower. We have provided new insights into the gene expression networks in OAC and the mechanisms behind progression to OAC, chiefly the repurposing of KLF5 for novel regulatory activity in OAC.
