Vitamin D has antiproliferative activity in prostate cancer; however, resistance to vitamin D-mediated growth inhibition occurs. To investigate the mechanisms of vitamin D resistance, we screened two prostate cancer sublines of CWR22rv1, CWR22R-1, and CWR22R-2, with differential sensitivity to vitamin D. CWR22R-2 showed less response to the antiproliferative effect of vitamin D than CWR22R-1. The vitamin D receptor (VDR)-mediated transcriptional activity was also decreased in CWR22R-2. We further showed that the DNA-binding ability of VDR was decreased and the amount of NCoR in VDR response element was increased in CWR22R-2. Analysis of VDR-associated protein profiles found higher expression of the corepressors, NCoR1 and SMRT, in CWR22R-2 cells. Treatment with the histone deacetylase inhibitor, trichostatin A, increased vitamin D/VDR transcriptional activity and promoted the antiproliferative effect of vitamin D in CWR22R-2 cells. Targeted down-regulation of NCoR1 and SMRT by small interference RNA was able to restore CWR22R-2 response to vitamin D. Together, we showed that increased NCoR1 and SMRT expression in CWR22R-2 cells resulted in reduced VDR-mediated transcriptional activity and attenuated antiproliferative response to vitamin D. Our data suggest that the integrity of the vitamin D/VDR-mediated signaling pathway is crucial in predicting vitamin D responsiveness and thus provide a rational design to improve vitamin D-based treatment efficacy based on molecular profiles of patients.
