The Eleanor ncRNAs activate the topological domain of the ESR1 locus to balance against apoptosis

Long term estrogen deprivation can result in apoptosis in breast cancer cells. Here, the authors show that this apoptosis is induced by the long-range chromatin interaction of loci containing the ESR1 and FOXO 3 genes, resulting in FOXO 3-mediated apoptosis.
