Abstract
This review focuses on molecular, cellular, and functional changes that occur in the vasculature during aging; explores the links between mitochondrial oxidative stress, inflammation, and development of vascular disease in the elderly patients; and provides a landscape of molecular mechanisms involved in cellular oxidative stress resistance, which could be targeted for the prevention or amelioration of unsuccessful vascular aging. Practical interventions for prevention of age-associated vascular dysfunction and disease in old age are considered here based on emerging knowledge of the effects of anti-inflammatory treatments, regular exercise, dietary interventions, and caloric restriction mimetics.

Abstract
Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a frequent complication after hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT). Tissue damage as a result of chemoradiation injury is the initiating event in the pathogenesis of acute GVHD. Variations in DNA repair can influence the amount of tissue damage in response to alkylating agents and ionizing radiation used as conditioning during HCT. As DNA damage caused by these agents is repaired by the base excision repair (BER) pathway, we hypothesized that single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in BER pathway will be associated with GVHD after HCT. Hence, we analyzed 179 SNPs in BER pathway in 470 recipients of allogeneic HCT for association with acute and chronic GVHD. In multivariate analysis, one SNP (rs6844176) in RFC1 (replication factor C (activator 1)) gene was independently associated with a higher risk of grade II-IV acute GVHD (relative risk (RR): 1.39, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.14-1.70, P=0.001), and showed a trend toward higher risk of grade III-IV acute GVHD (RR: 1.33, 95% CI: 0.95-1.85, P=0.09). One SNP in PARP1 gene (rs1805410) was associated with a higher risk of chronic GVHD (RR: 1.81, 95% CI: 1.29-2.54, P=0.001). These results show that SNPs in the BER pathway can be used as genetic biomarkers to predict those at high risk for GVHD toward whom novel prophylactic strategies could be targeted.

Abstract
The immune system comprises an innate and an adaptive immune response to combat pathogenic agents. The human enteropathogen Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium invades the intestinal mucosa and triggers an early innate proinflammatory host gene response, which results in diarrheal disease. Several host factors, including transcription factors and transcription coregulators, are involved in the acute early response to Salmonella infection. We found in a mouse model of enterocolitis induced by S. Typhimurium that the absence of the nuclear protein poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1), a previously described cofactor for NF-kappaB-mediated proinflammatory gene expression, is associated with a delayed proinflammatory immune response after Salmonella infection. Our data reveal that PARP1 is expressed in the proliferative zone of cecum crypts, where it is required for the efficient expression of proinflammatory genes, many of which are related to interferon signaling. Consequently, animals lacking PARP1 show impaired infiltration of immune cells into the gut, with severely delayed inflammation.

Abstract
Latterly, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) has emerged as a molecule with versatile functions and of enormous impact on the maintenance of cell integrity. Besides playing key roles in almost all major aspects of energy metabolism, there is mounting evidence that NAD+ and its degradation products affect various biological activities including calcium homeostasis, gene transcription, DNA repair, and intercellular communication. This review is aimed at giving a brief insight into the life cycle of NAD+ in the cell, referring to synthesis, action and degradation aspects. With respect to their immunological relevance, the importance and function of the major NAD+ metabolizing enzymes, namely CD38/CD157, ADP-ribosyltransferases (ARTs), poly-ADP-ribose-polymerases (PARPs), and sirtuins are summarized and roles of NAD+ and its main degradation product adenosine 5'-diphosphoribose (ADPR) in cell signaling are discussed. In addition, an outline of the variety of immunological processes depending on the activity of nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (Nampt), the key enzyme of the salvage pathway of NAD+ synthesis, is presented. Taken together, an efficient supply of NAD+ seems to be a crucial need for a multitude of cell functions, underlining the yet only partly revealed potency of this small molecule to influence cell fate.

Abstract
Following Salmonella invasion, intestinal epithelial cells release a distinct array of proinflammatory cytokines. Interleukin (IL)-6 produced by enterocytes may have anti-inflammatory and cell-protective effects, and may counteract some of the injurious effects of sepsis and endotoxemia. Recent studies in a variety of rodent models of experimental colitis by using PJ-34, a potent poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) inhibitor, support the concept that the marked beneficial effect of PJ-34 can be exploited to treat human inflammatory diseases. The present study was to investigate the effect of PJ-34 on Salmonella-induced enterocyte IL-6 production and its mechanisms. We found that PJ-34 enhanced Salmonella-induced IL-6 production in Caco-2 cells, either secreted protein or mRNA expression. PJ-34 treatment enhanced the activity of NF-κB in Salmonella-infected Caco-2 cells. Besides, the involvement of PJ-34 in up-regulating IL-6 production in S. typhimurium-infected Caco-2 cells might be also through the ERK but not p38 MAPK, JNK or PI3K/Akt pathways, as demonstrated by Western blot of phosphorylated ERK, p38, JNK and Akt proteins. It suggests that PJ-34 may exert its protective effect on intestinal epithelial cells against invasive Salmonella infection by up-regulating IL-6 production through ERK and NF-κB but not P38 MAPK, JNK or PI3K/Akt signal pathways.

Abstract
In this study, we demonstrate that human cardiomyocytes (AC16) produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) and inflammatory cytokines in response to Trypanosoma cruzi. ROS were primarily produced by mitochondria, some of which diffused to cytosol of infected cardiomyocytes. These ROS resulted in an increase in 8-hydroxyguanine lesions and DNA fragmentation that signaled PARP-1 activation evidenced by poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) modification of PARP-1 and other proteins in infected cardiomyocytes. Phenyl-alpha-tert-butylnitrone blocked the mitochondrial ROS (mtROS) formation, DNA damage, and PARP-1 activation in infected cardiomyocytes. Further inhibition studies demonstrated that ROS and PARP-1 signaled TNF-alpha and IL-1beta expression in infected cardiomyocytes. ROS directly signaled the nuclear translocation of RelA (p65), NF-kappaB activation, and cytokine gene expression. PARP-1 exhibited no direct interaction with p65 and did not signal its translocation to nuclei in infected cardiomyocytes. Instead, PARP-1 contributed to PAR modification of p65-interacting nuclear proteins and assembly of the NF-kappaB transcription complex. PJ34 (PARP-1 inhibitor) also prevented mitochondrial poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation (PARylation) and ROS formation. We conclude that T. cruzi-mediated mtROS provide primary stimulus for PARP-1-NF-kappaB activation and cytokine gene expression in infected cardiomyocytes. PAR modification of mitochondrial membranes then results in a feedback cycle of mtROS formation and DNA damage/PARP-1 activation. ROS, either through direct modulation of cytosolic NF-kappaB, or via PARP-1-dependent PAR modification of p65-interacting nuclear proteins, contributes to cytokine gene expression. Our results demonstrate a link between ROS and inflammatory responses in cardiomyocytes infected by T. cruzi and provide a clue to the pathomechanism of sustained inflammation in Chagas disease.

Abstract
The nuclear enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerse-1 (PARP-1) has previously been reported to play an important role in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced pulmonary inflammation and is highly activated in COPD patients. In the present study, the anti-inflammatory efficacy of a previously identified poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) inhibiting caffeine metabolite, 1,7-dimethylxanthine, was both in vivo as well as ex vivo evaluated. Orally administered 1,7-dimethylxanthine significantly attenuated lung myeloperoxidase-levels, transcription of IL-6, TNF-alpha, MIP1alpha and MIP2 genes as well as PAR-polymer formation in a mouse model of intratracheally LPS-induced acute pulmonary inflammation. Serum amyloid P component and plasma IL-6 were also lowered in 1,7-dimethylxanthine treated mice, indicating a reduced systemic inflammatory response. In addition, at 24h after LPS administration anti-inflammatory effects of 1,7-dimethylxanthine appeared more pronounced than those of the orally administered PARP-1 inhibitor 3-aminobenzamide. In the second model, in blood of COPD-patients and healthy controls ex vivo pre-incubated with a physiological concentration of 1,7-dimethylxanthine (10microM), LPS-induced production of the cytokines IL-6 and TNF-alpha was significantly suppressed. 1,7-Dimethylxanthine exerts anti-inflammatory effects, both in vivo mouse as well as ex vivo human. These results suggest that the PARP-1 inhibiting caffeine metabolite 1,7-dimethylxanthine may have therapeutic potential in pulmonary inflammatory diseases such as COPD.

Abstract
We reported that PARP-1 exhibits differential roles in expression of inflammatory factors. Here, we show that PARP-1 deletion was associated with a significant reduction in inflammatory cell recruitment to mouse airways upon intratracheal administration of LPS. However, PARP-1 deletion exerted little effect in response to TNF exposure. LPS induced massive neutrophilia and moderate recruitment of macrophages, and TNF induced recruitment of primarily macrophages with smaller numbers of neutrophils in the lungs. Following either exposure, macrophage recruitment was blocked severely in PARP-1(-/-) mice, and this was associated with a marked reduction in MCP-1 and MIP-1alpha. This association was corroborated partly by macrophage recruitment in response to intratracheal administration of MCP-1 in PARP-1(-/-) mice. Surprisingly, although neutrophil recruitment was reduced significantly in LPS-treated PARP-1(-/-) mice, neutrophil numbers increased in TNF-treated mice, suggesting that PARP-1 deletion may promote a macrophagic-to-neutrophilic shift in the inflammatory response upon TNF exposure. Neutrophil-specific chemokines mKC and MIP-2 were reduced significantly in lungs of LPS-treated but only partially reduced in TNF-treated PARP-1(-/-) mice. Furthermore, the MIP-2 antagonist abrogated the shift to a neutrophilic response in TNF-exposed PARP-1(-/-) mice. Although CXCR2 expression increased in response to either stimulus in PARP-1(+/+) mice, the DARC increased only in lungs of TNF-treated PARP-1(+/+) mice; both receptors were reduced to basal levels in treated PARP-1(-/-) mice. Our results show that the balance of pro-neutrophilic or pro-macrophagic stimulatory factors and the differential influence of PARP-1 on these factors are critical determinants for the nature of the airway inflammatory response.

Abstract
Metastasized melanoma is almost universally resistant to chemotherapy. Given that constitutive or drug-induced upregulation of NF-kappaB activity is associated with this chemoresistance, NF-kappaB inhibition may increase the susceptibility to antitumoral therapy. On the cellular level, two principles of NF-kappaB inhibition, proteasome inhibition by bortezomib and IkappaB kinase-beta (IKKbeta) inhibition by the kinase inhibitor of NF-kappaB-1 (KINK-1), significantly increased the antitumoral efficacy of camptothecin. When combined with camptothecin, either of the two NF-kappaB-inhibiting principles synergistically influenced progression-related in vitro functions, including cell growth, apoptosis, and invasion through an artificial basement membrane. In addition, when C57BL/6 mice were intravenously injected with B16F10 melanoma cells, the combination of cytostatic treatment with either of the NF-kappaB-inhibiting compounds revealed significantly reduced pulmonary metastasis compared to either treatment alone. However, on the molecular level, nuclear translocation of p65, cell cycle analysis, and expression of NF-kappaB-dependent gene products disclosed distinctly different molecular mechanisms, resulting in the same functional effect. That proteasome inhibition and IKKbeta inhibition affect distinct molecular pathways downstream of NF-kappaB, both leading to increased chemosensitivity, is previously unreported. Thus, it is conceivable that switching the two principles of NF-kappaB inhibition, once resistance to one of the agents occurs, will improve future treatment regimens.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) and poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG) are enzymes that modify target proteins by the addition and removal, respectively, of ADP-ribose polymers. Although a role for PARP-1 in gene regulation has been well established, the role of PARG is less clear. To investigate how PARP-1 and PARG coordinately regulate global patterns of gene expression, we used short hairpin RNAs to stably knock down PARP-1 or PARG in MCF-7 cells followed by expression microarray analyses. Correlation analyses showed that the majority of genes affected by the knockdown of one factor were similarly affected by the knockdown of the other factor. The most robustly regulated common genes were enriched for stress-response and metabolic functions. In chromatin immunoprecipitation assays, PARP-1 and PARG localized to the promoters of positively and negatively regulated target genes. The levels of chromatin-bound PARG at a given promoter generally correlated with the levels of PARP-1 across the subset of promoters tested. For about half of the genes tested, the binding of PARP-1 at the promoter was dependent on the binding of PARG. Experiments using stable re-expression of short hairpin RNA-resistant catalytic mutants showed that PARP-1 and PARG enzymatic activities are required for some, but not all, target genes. Collectively, our results indicate that PARP-1 and PARG, nuclear enzymes with opposing enzymatic activities, localize to target promoters and act in a similar, rather than antagonistic, manner to regulate gene expression.

Abstract
There has been a recent upsurge in the development of small-molecule inhibitors specific to DNA repair proteins or proteins peripherally involved in base excision repair and the DNA damage response. These specific, nominally toxic inhibitors are able to potentiate the effect of existing cancer cell treatments in a wide array of cancers. One of the largest obstacles to overcome in the treatment of cancer is incomplete killing with initial cancer treatments, leading to resistant cancer. The progression of our understanding of cancer and normal cell responses to DNA damage has allowed us to develop biomarkers that we can use to help us predict responses of cancers, more specifically target cancer cells and overcome resistance. Initial successes using these small-molecule DNA repair inhibitors in target-validation experiments and in the early stages of clinical trials indicate an important role for these inhibitors, and allow for the possibility of a future in which cancers are potentially treated in a highly specific, individual manner.

Abstract
Background: Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) is a DNA-binding enzyme activated by DNA breaks and involved in DNA repair and other cellular processes. Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase activity can be higher in cancer than in adjacent normal tissue, but cancer predisposition is reported to be greater in individuals with a single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) V762A (T2444C) in the catalytic domain that reduces PARP-1 activity. Methods: To resolve these divergent observations, we determined PARP-1 polymorphisms, PARP-1 protein expression and activity in a panel of 19 solid and haematological, adult and paediatric human cancer cell lines. Results: There was a wide variation in PARP activity in the cell line panel (coefficient of variation, CV=103%), with the lowest and the highest activity being 2460 pmol PAR/106 (HS-5 cells) and 85 750 pmol PAR/106 (NGP cells). Lower variation (CV=32%) was observed in PARP-1 protein expression with the lowest expression being 2.0 ng μg−1 (HS-5 cells) and the highest being 7.1 ng μg−1 (ML-1 cells). The mean activity in the cancer cells was 45-fold higher than the mean activity in normal human lymphocytes and the PARP-1 protein levels were 23-fold higher. Conclusions: Surprisingly, there was no significant correlation between PARP activity and PARP-1 protein level or the investigated polymorphisms, T2444C and CA.

Abstract
Necrotic lesions and necrotic cell death characterize severe autoimmune nephritides, and contribute to local inflammation and to progression of the disease. Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1), a DNA repair enzyme, is involved in the induction of necrosis and is a key player in the acute and chronic inflammation. Therefore, we hypothesized that PARP-1 controls the severity of nephritis by mediating the induction of necrosis in the kidney. We used lupus and anti-glomerular basement membrane models of nephritis to determine the effects of PARP-1 on the inflammatory response in the kidney. We show in this study that PARP-1 is indeed activated during the course of glomerulonephritis. We also show that the absence of PARP-1 or its pharmacological inhibition results in milder nephritis, with lower blood urea nitrogen levels, reduced necrotic lesions, and higher survival rates. The relevance of PARP-1 showed a strong male sex specificity, and treatment of male mice with 17beta-estradiol prolonged their survival during the course of nephritis. PARP-1 also regulated TNF-alpha expression and up-regulation of adhesion molecules, further supporting a role of PARP-1 in the inflammatory process within the kidney. Our results demonstrate that PARP-1 activation and consequent necrotic cell death play an important role in the pathogenesis of male nephritis, and suggest that PARP-1 can be a novel therapeutic target in glomerulonephritis.

AG14361, a potent PARP-1 inhibitor, was used in two breast cancer cell lines expressing different levels of constitutively activated NF-kappaB, as well as mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) proficient or deficient for PARP-1 or NF-kappaB p65. In the breast cancer cell lines, AG14361 had no effect on IR-induced degradation of IkappaBalpha or nuclear translocation of p50 or p65. However, AG14361 inhibited IR-induced NF-kappaB-dependent transcription of a luciferase reporter gene. Similarly, in PARP-1(-/-) MEFs, IR-induced nuclear translocation of p50 and p65 was normal, but kappaB binding and transcriptional activation did not occur. AG14361 sensitized both breast cancer cell lines to IR-induced cell killing, inhibited IR-induced XIAP expression and increased caspase-3 activity. However, AG14361 failed to increase IR-induced caspase activity when p65 was knocked down by siRNA. Consistent with this, AG14361 sensitized p65(+/+) but not p65(-/-) MEFs to IR. We conclude that PARP-1 activity is essential in the upstream regulation of IR-induced NF-kappaB activation. These data indicate that potentiation of IR-induced cytotoxicity by AG14361 is mediated solely by inhibition of NF-kappaB activation.

Abstract
Cigarette smoking is the major cause of preventable morbidity and mortality in the United States and constitutes a major risk factor for atherosclerotic vascular disease, including coronary artery disease and stroke. Increasing evidence supports the hypothesis that oxidative stress and inflammation provide the pathophysiological link between cigarette smoking and CAD. Previous studies have shown that cigarette smoke activates leukocytes to release reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS/RNS) and secrete pro-inflammatory cytokines, increases the adherence of monocytes to the endothelium and elicits airway inflammation. Here we present an overview of the direct effects of water-soluble cigarette smoke constituents on endothelial function, vascular ROS production and inflammatory gene expression. The potential pathogenetic role of peroxynitrite formation, and downstream mechanisms including poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) activation in cardiovascular complications in smokers are also discussed.

Abstract
Shelterin/telosome is a multi-protein complex at mammalian telomeres, anchored to the double-stranded region by the telomeric-repeat binding factors-1 and -2. In vitro modification of these proteins by poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation through poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases-5 (tankyrases) and -1/-2, respectively, impairs binding. Thereafter, at least telomeric-repeat binding factor-1 is degraded by the proteasome. We show that pharmacological inhibition of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase activity in cells from two different species leads to rapid decrease in median telomere length and stabilization at a lower setting. Specific knockdown of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 by RNA interference had the same effect. The length of the single-stranded telomeric overhang as well as telomerase activity were not affected. Release of inhibition led to a fast re-gain in telomere length to control levels in cells expressing active telomerase. We conclude that poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 activity and probably its interplay with telomeric-repeat binding factor-2 is an important determinant in telomere regulation. Our findings reinforce the link between poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation and aging/longevity and also impact on the use of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors in tumor therapy.

Abstract
One of the major conceptual advances in our understanding of the pathogenesis of age-associated cardiovascular diseases has been the insight that age-related oxidative stress may promote vascular inflammation even in the absence of traditional risk factors associated with atherogenesis (e.g., hypertension or metabolic diseases). In the present review we summarize recent experimental data suggesting that mitochondrial production of reactive oxygen species, innate immunity, the local TNF-alpha-converting enzyme (TACE)-TNF-alpha, and the renin-angiotensin system may underlie NF-kappaB induction and endothelial activation in aged arteries. The theme that emerges from this review is that multiple proinflammatory pathways converge on NF-kappaB in the aged arterial wall, and that the transcriptional activity of NF-kappaB is regulated by multiple nuclear factors during aging, including nuclear enzymes poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP-1) and SIRT-1. We also discuss the possibility that nucleophosmin (NPM or nuclear phosphoprotein B23), a known modulator of the cellular oxidative stress response, may also regulate NF-kappaB activity in endothelial cells.

Abstract
Hemorrhagic transformation is an aggravating event that occurs in 15 to 43% of patients suffering from ischemic stroke. This phenomenon due to blood-brain barrier breakdown appears to be mediated in part by matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) among which MMP-2 and MMP-9 could be particularly involved. Recent experimental studies demonstrated that post-ischemic MMP-9 overexpression is regulated by poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase (PARP). In this context, our study aimed to evaluate the effect of PJ34 (N-(6-oxo-5,6-dihydrophenanthridin-2-yl)-2-(N,N-dimethylamino)acetamide), a potent PARP inhibitor, on MMP-2 and MMP-9 levels and on hemorrhagic transformations in a model of permanent focal cerebral ischemia in mice. PJ34 (6.25-12.5 mg/kg, i.p.) was given at the time of ischemia onset and 4 h later. Hemorrhagic transformations, divided into microscopic and macroscopic hemorrhages, were counted 48 h after ischemia on 12 coronal brain slices. Microscopic and macroscopic hemorrhages were respectively reduced by 38% and 69% with 6.25 mg/kg PJ34. The anti-hemorrhagic effect of PJ34 was associated with a 57% decrease in MMP-9 overexpression assessed by gelatin zymography. No increase in MMP-2 activity was observed after ischemia in our model. The vascular protection achieved by PJ34 was associated with a reduction in the motor deficit (P<0.05) and in infarct volume (-31%, P<0.01). In conclusion, our study demonstrates for the first time that PJ34 reduces hemorrhagic transformations after cerebral ischemia. Thus this PARP inhibitor exhibits both anti-hemorrhagic and neuroprotective effects that may be of valuable interest for the treatment of stroke.

Abstract
Hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) is the key transcription factor regulating hypoxia-dependent gene expression. Lack of oxygen stabilizes HIF-1, which in turn modulates the gene expression pattern to adapt cells to the hypoxic environment. Activation of HIF-1 is also detected in most solid tumors and supports tumor growth through the expression of target genes that are involved in processes like cell proliferation, energy metabolism, and oxygen delivery. Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) is a chromatin-associated protein, which was shown to regulate transcription. Here we report that chronic myelogenous leukemia cells expressing small interfering RNA against PARP1, which were injected into wild-type mice expressing PARP1, showed tumor growth with increased levels of necrosis, limited vascularization, and reduced expression of GLUT-1. Of note, PARP1-deficient cells showed a reduced HIF-1 transcriptional activation that was dependent on PARP1 enzymatic activity. PARP1 neither influenced binding of HIF-1 to its hypoxic response element nor changed HIF-1alpha protein levels in hypoxic cells. However, PARP1 formed a complex with HIF-1alpha through direct protein interaction and coactivated HIF-1alpha-dependent gene expression. These findings provide convincing evidence that wild-type mice expressing PARP1 cannot compensate for the loss of PARP1 in tumor cells and strengthen the importance of the role of PARP1 as a transcriptional coactivator of HIF-1-dependent gene expression during tumor progression.

Abstract
The pharmacological actions of morphine and morphine-like drugs such as heroin mediate primarily through the mu opioid receptor (MOR). It represents the target of the most valuable painkiller in contemporary medicine. Here we report that poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1) binds to the double-stranded poly(C) element essential for the MOR promoter and represses promoter activity at the transcriptional level. We identified PARP-1 by affinity column chromatography using the double-stranded poly(C) element, followed by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. PARP-1 binding to the poly(C) sequence of the MOR gene was sequence-specific as confirmed by the supershift assay. In cotransfection studies, PARP-1 repressed the MOR promoter only when the poly(C) sequence was intact. When PARP-1 was disrupted in NS20Y cells using siRNA, transcription of the endogenous target MOR gene increased significantly. Chromatin immunoprecipitation assays showed specific binding of PARP-1 to the double-stranded poly(C) element essential for the MOR promoter. Inhibition of PARP-1's catalytic domain with 3-aminobenzamide increased endogenous MOR mRNA levels in cultured NS20Y cells, suggesting that automodification of PARP-1 regulates MOR transcription. Our data suggest that PARP-1 can function as a repressor of MOR transcription dependent on the MOR poly(C) sequence. We demonstrate for the first time a role of PARP-1 as a transcriptional repressor in MOR gene regulation.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) is an enzyme best known for its role in DNA repair and as a mediator of NAD+ depletion and energy failure-induced cell death. We tested the effect of the potent and selective ideno-isoquinolone PARP-1 inhibitor INO-1001 after controlled cortical impact (CCI) in mice. Anesthetized adult male mice were subjected to moderate CCI (velocity 6 m/sec, depth 1.2 mm) or sham-injury. Immediately after CCI or sham-injury mice received either INO-1001 (1.6 mg/kg) or vehicle via intracerebral injection (5 microl over 5 min) in a randomized fashion. At 2 h, contused brain tissue was dissected and NAD+ levels were measured. Separate mice underwent neuropathological outcome tests that included spatial memory acquisition (Morris water maze days 14-20), and assessment of contusion volume and hippocampal cell death at day 21. Local treatment with INO-1001 preserved brain NAD+ levels 2 h after CCI (vehicle = 67 +/- 7.6, INO-1001 = 95.8 +/- 4.4 % uninjured hemisphere; n = 6/group, p = 0.03). In the Morris water maze, treatment with INO-1001 reduced the latency to find the hidden platform and increased the time spent in the target quadrant versus vehicle after CCI (n = 11/group, p < or = 0.05). Histological damage did not differ between vehicle and INO-1001-treated mice after CCI. Treatment with INO-1001 prevented NAD+ depletion and improved outcome, although modestly, identifying PARP-mediated energy failure as a contributor to the pathological sequelae of TBI. Further study testing the effects of PARP inhibitors is warranted, specifically in models of brain injury where energy failure is seen.

Abstract
Background Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) is a nuclear enzyme that plays critical functions in many biological processes, including DNA repair and gene transcription. The main function of PARP-1 is to catalyze the transfer of ADP-ribose units from nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) to a large array of acceptor proteins, which comprises histones, transcription factors, as well as PARP-1 itself. We have previously demonstrated that transcription of the PARP-1 gene essentially rely on the opposite regulatory actions of two distinct transcription factors, Sp1 and NFI. In the present study, we examined whether suppression of PARP-1 expression in embryonic fibroblasts derived from PARP-1 knockout mice (PARP-1-/-) might alter the expression and/or DNA binding properties of Sp1 and NFI. We also explored the possibility that Sp1 or NFI (or both) may represent target proteins of PARP-1 activity. Results Expression of both Sp1 and NFI was found to be considerably reduced in PARP-1-/- cells. Co-immunoprecipitation assays revealed that PARP-1 physically interacts with Sp1 in a DNA-independent manner, but neither with Sp3 nor NFI, in PARP-1+/+ cells. In addition, in vitro PARP assays indicated that PARP-1 could catalyze the addition of polymer of ADP-ribose to Sp1, which also translated into a reduction of Sp1 binding to its consensus DNA target site. Transfection of the PARP-1 promoter into both PARP-1+/+ and PARP-1-/- cells revealed that the lack of PARP-1 expression in PARP-1-/- cells also results in a strong increase in PARP-1 promoter activity. This influence of PARP-1 was found to rely on the presence of the Sp1 sites present on the basal PARP-1 promoter as their mutation entirely abolished the increased promoter activity observed in PARP-1-/- cells. Subjecting PARP-1+/+ cells to an oxidative challenge with hydrogen peroxide to increase PARP-1 activity translated into a dramatic reduction in the DNA binding properties of Sp1. However, its suppression by the inhibitor PJ34 improved DNA binding of Sp1 and led to a dramatic increase in PARP-1 promoter function. Conclusion Our results therefore recognized Sp1 as a target protein of PARP-1 activity, the addition of polymer of ADP-ribose to this transcription factor restricting its positive regulatory influence on gene transcription.

Abstract
Although nuclear translocation of NF-kappaB and subsequent binding to promoters of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 have been shown to be decisive for their expression, a number of discrepancies in the expression patterns of these adhesion molecules have been reported in both cell culture systems and disease settings, including atherosclerosis, asthma, and autoimmune diseases. Here we show that while p65 NF-kappaB nuclear translocation in TNF-treated smooth muscle cells (SMCs) was sufficient for the expression of VCAM-1, expression of ICAM-1 showed a critical requirement for PARP-1. I-kappaBalpha phosphorylation and subsequent degradation were virtually identical in both TNF-treated wild-type and PARP-1-/- SMCs. VCAM-1 expression in TNF-treated PARP-1-/- SMCs was completely inhibited by the NF-kappaB inhibitor, pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate, confirming that VCAM-1 expression was indeed NF-kappaB-dependent. The expression of both VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 was associated with a transient interaction between PARP-1 and p65 NF-kappaB when examined in the fibroblastic cell line, COS-7, and in the airway epithelial cell line, A549. Such interactions were confirmed using florescence resonance energy transfer analysis. Protein acetylation activity, mediated by p300/CBP, was required for both VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 expression in TNF-treated SMCs; however, the interaction of PARP-1 with p300/CBP was dispensable for VCAM-1 expression. These findings indicate that p65 NF-kappaB nuclear translocation may be sufficient for certain genes (e.g., VCAM-1) while insufficient for others (e.g., ICAM-1), thus providing a novel insight into the role of NF-kappaB in driving target gene expression. Furthermore, the data suggest a differential requirement for PARP-1 expression in inflammatory processes.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases (PARPs) catalyze the post-translational modification of proteins with poly(ADP-ribose). Two PARP isoforms, PARP-1 and PARP-2, display catalytic activity by contact with DNA-strand breaks and are involved in DNA base-excision repair and other repair pathways. A body of correlative data suggests a link between DNA damage-induced poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation and mammalian longevity. Recent research on PARPs and poly(ADP-ribose) yielded several candidate mechanisms through which poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation might act as a factor that limits the rate of ageing.

Abstract
The nuclear enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1), which was initially known to be highly activated by oxidative stress-induced DNA strand breaks, has been shown to be involved in the pathophysiology of acute and chronic inflammatory diseases. PARP-1 deficiency in mice led to the discovery of its coactivating function in the nuclear factor-kappa B-mediated gene expression and in addition, pharmaceutical inhibition of PARP-1 was shown to reduce the production of inflammatory mediators. In this study, the in vitro PARP-1-inhibiting effect of various flavonoids was investigated. The flavonoids myricetin, tricetin, gossypetin, delphinidin, quercetin, and fisetin were identified as significant inhibitors of the purified enzyme. Further evaluation of these compounds in N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine-treated human pulmonary epithelial cells showed that the formation of the poly(ADP-ribose) polymers, as well as the decreased NAD(+) levels, was reduced by quercetin, fisetin, and tricetin. Finally, IL-8 production of LPS-stimulated human pulmonary epithelial cells could be significantly reduced by these flavonoids. The results of this study indicate that specific flavonoids have PARP-1-inhibiting activity in addition to the earlier described antioxidant effects. PARP-1 inhibition and preservation of cellular NAD(+) and energy production could play a role in the antiinflammatory activity of these specific flavonoids. In addition, these results indicate additional mechanisms by which flavonoids can exert antiinflammatory activity. Furthermore, these results indicate possibilities to use food-derived flavonoids in the treatment of chronic inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases (PARPs) are members of a family of enzymes that utilize nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD(+)) as substrate to form large ADP-ribose polymers (PAR) in the nucleus. PAR has a very short half-life due to its rapid degradation by poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG). PARP-1 mediates acute neuronal cell death induced by a variety of insults including cerebral ischemia, 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine-induced Parkinsonism, and CNS trauma. While PARP-1 is localized to the nucleus, PARG resides in both the nucleus and cytoplasm. Surprisingly, there appears to be only one gene encoding PARG activity, which has been characterized in vitro to generate different splice variants, in contrast to the growing family of PARPs. Little is known regarding the spatial and functional relationships of PARG and PARP-1. Here we evaluate PARG expression in the brain and its cellular and subcellular distribution in relation to PARP-1. Anti-PARG (alpha-PARG) antibodies raised in rabbits using a purified 30 kDa C-terminal fragment of murine PARG recognize a single band at 111 kDa in the brain. Western blot analysis also shows that PARG and PARP-1 are evenly distributed throughout the brain. Immunohistochemical studies using alpha-PARG antibodies reveal punctate cytosolic staining, whereas anti-PARP-1 (alpha-PARP-1) antibodies demonstrate nuclear staining. PARG is enriched in the mitochondrial fraction together with manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) and cytochrome C (Cyt C) following whole brain subcellular fractionation and Western blot analysis. Confocal microscopy confirms the co-localization of PARG and Cyt C. Finally, PARG translocation to the nucleus is triggered by NMDA-induced PARP-1 activation. Therefore, the subcellular segregation of PARG in the mitochondria and PARP-1 in the nucleus suggests that PARG translocation is necessary for their functional interaction. This translocation is PARP-1 dependent, further demonstrating a functional interaction of PARP-1 and PARG in the brain.

Abstract
The nuclear enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) which was initially known for its role in the repair of oxidative stress-induced DNA damage, has also been reported to play a mediating role in the inflammatory response. Studies with PARP-1 knockout models have shown that PARP-1 is a co-activator of Nuclear Factor-kappa B (NF-kappaB), although this appears not to require its enzyme activity. In addition, drug-induced inhibition of the enzyme activity of PARP-1 was observed to reduce the production of pro-inflammatory mediators. In this study, the flavonoid compound flavone was demonstrated to significantly inhibit the enzyme activity of PARP-1. Further evaluation of flavone in N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG)-treated human pulmonary epithelial and vascular endothelial cells revealed that both the decrease in NAD(+) levels, as well as the formation of PAR-polymers was dose-dependently attenuated by flavone. In addition, flavone was found to reduce the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced interleukin (IL)-8 production in pulmonary epithelial cells, which was confirmed by transcription analysis. Furthermore, the transcription Inhibitor kappa B alpha (of IkappaBalpha) was significantly increased by flavone. The results of the present study indicate that the flavonoid flavone could be a potential candidate for application in treatment of chronic inflammatory diseases. PARP-1 inhibition could have beneficial effects in such diseases as Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and diabetes, by preservation of cellular NAD(+) levels and attenuating inflammatory conditions.

Abstract
The transcription factor Stat6 plays a critical role in interleukin-4-dependent gene activation. To mediate this function, Stat6 recruits canonical transcriptional co-activators including the histone acetyl transferases CREB-binding protein and NCoA-1 and other proteins such as a p100 co-factor. However, much remains unknown regarding the constituents of Stat6 enhancer complexes, and the exact molecular events that modulate Stat6-dependent gene activation are not fully understood. Recently, we identified a novel co-factor, CoaSt6 (collaborator of Stat6), which associates with Stat6 and enhances its transcriptional activity. Sequence homologies place CoaSt6 in a superfamily of poly(ADP-ribosyl)polymerase (PARP)-like proteins. We have demonstrated here that PARP enzymatic activity is associated with CoaSt6, and this function of CoaSt6 can append ADP-ribose to itself and p100. Further, we show that a catalytically inactive mutant of CoaSt6 was unable to enhance Stat6-mediated transcription of a test promoter. Consistent with these findings, chemical inhibition of PARP activity blocked interleukin-4-dependent transcription from target promoters in vivo. Taken together, we have identified a CoaSt6-associated PARP activity and provided evidence for a role of poly(ADP ribosyl)ation in Stat-mediated transcriptional responses involving a novel PARP.

Abstract
AIM OF THE STUDY The aim of our study was to compare poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) activity levels in a porcine model of hemorrhagic shock and resuscitation. MATERIALS AND METHODS We designed a prospective, comparative randomized survival study of hemorrhagic shock using 20 male Yorkshire-Landrace pigs (15-25 kg). In 16 pigs after splenectomy, we induced hemorrhagic shock to a mean arterial pressure of 50 mm Hg ( approximately 35% bleed). Pigs were randomized to receive normotensive resuscitation (SBP 90 mm Hg), mild hypotensive resuscitation (SBP 80 mm Hg), moderate hypotensive resuscitation (SBP 65 mm Hg), or no resuscitation (n=4 in each group). We also included a group of sham animals that were instrumented and had a splenectomy but not bled (n=4). Muscle and liver biopsies were taken prior to hemorrhage, after 45 min of shock, and 8, 24, and 48 h after resuscitation. PARP activity levels in biopsies were measured using chemical quantitation of NAD+. RESULTS Irrespective of our resuscitation strategy or outcome, both muscle and liver PARP activity levels rose after 45 min of shock and then returned to baseline. Excluding our control animals, PARP activity levels were significantly higher during shock in non-survivors compared to survivors. CONCLUSIONS In our model of porcine hemorrhagic shock, PARP activity levels increased during hemorrhagic shock. However, this increase in PARP activity levels was transient as they returned to baseline regardless of resuscitation strategy. Interestingly, PARP activity levels were significantly higher during hemorrhagic shock in non-survivors compared to survivors. These findings suggest that PARP activity may be a part of initial pathways leading from hemorrhagic shock to death.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1)-dependent poly(ADP-ribose) formation is emerging as a key regulator of transcriptional regulation, even though the targets and underlying molecular mechanisms have not yet been clearly identified. In this study, we gathered information on the role of PARP-1 activity in the heat shock response of mouse fibroblasts. We show that DNA binding of heat shock factor (HSF)-1 was impaired by PARP-1 activity in cellular extracts, and was higher in PARP-1(-/-) than in PARP-1+/+ cells. No evidence for HSF-1 poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation or PARP-1 interaction was found, but a poly(ADP-ribose) binding motif was identified in the transcription factor amino acid sequence. Consistent with data on HSF-1, the expression of heat-shock protein (HSP)-70 and HSP-27 was facilitated in cells lacking PARP-1. Thermosensitivity, however, was higher in PARP-1(-/-) than in PARP-1+/+ cells. Accordingly, we report that heat-shocked PARP-1 null fibroblasts showed an increased activation of proapoptotic JNK and decreased transcriptional efficiency of prosurvival NF-kappaB compared with wild-type counterparts. The data indicate that poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation finely regulates HSF-1 activity, and emphasize the complex role of PARP-1 in the heat-shock response of mammalian cells.

Abstract
The potential neuroprotection of nicotinamide on the consequences of perinatal asphyxia was investigated with triple organotypic cultures. Perinatal asphyxia was induced in vivo by immersing foetuses-containing uterine horns removed from ready-to-deliver rats into a water bath for 20 min. Sibling caesarean-delivered pups were used as controls. Three days later tissue from substantia nigra, neostriatum and neocortex was dissected and placed on a coverslip. After a month, the cultures were processed for immunocytochemistry and phenotyped with markers against the NMDA receptor subunit NR1, tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), or neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS). Some cultures were analysed for cell viability. Nicotinamide (0.8 mmol/kg, i.p.) or saline was administered to asphyxia-exposed and caesarean-delivered control pups 24, 48 and 72 h after birth. Perinatal asphyxia produced a decrease of cell viability in substantia nigra, but not in neostriatum or neocortex. Immunocytochemistry confirmed the vulnerability of the substantia nigra, demonstrating that there was a significant decrease in the number of NR1 and TH-positive (+) cells/mm2, as well as a decrease in the length of TH+ processes, suggesting neurite atrophy. In control cultures, many nNOS+ cells were seen, with different features, regional distribution and cell body sizes. Following perinatal asphyxia, there was an increase in the number of nNOS+ cells/mm2 in substantia nigra, versus a decrease in neostriatum including reduced neurite length, and no apparent changes in neocortex. The main effect of nicotinamide was seen in the neostriatum, preventing the asphyxia-induced decrease in the number of nNOS+ cells and neurite length. Nicotinamide also prevented the effect of perinatal asphyxia on TH-positive neurite length. The present results support the idea that nicotinamide can prevent the effects produced by a sustained energy-failure condition, as occurring during perinatal asphyxia.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) is a nuclear DNA-binding protein that participates in the regulation of DNA repair and maintenance of genomic integrity. In addition, PARP-1 has a role in several models of inflammation disease, where its absence or inactivation confers protection. The aim of this study was to analyze the impact of selective PARP-1 suppression in collagen antibody-induced arthritis. We show that PARP-1 deficiency partially reduces the severity of arthritis, although the incidence of disease was similar in control and deficient mice. Decreased clinical scores were accompanied by partial reduction of histopathological findings. Interestingly, quantitative real-time PCR and ELISA analysis revealed that the absence of PARP-1 down-regulated IL-1β and monocyte chemotactic protein 1 expression in arthritic joints whereas tumor necrosis factor-α transcription was not impaired. Our results provide evidence of the contribution of PARP-1 to the progression of arthritis and identify this protein as a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.

Abstract
We have investigated the idea that nicotinamide, a non-selective inhibitor of the sentinel enzyme Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-I (PARP-1), provides neuroprotection against the long-term neurological changes induced by perinatal asphyxia. Perinatal asphyxia was induced in vivo by immersing foetuses-containing uterine horns removed from ready-to-deliver rats into a water bath for 20 min. Sibling caesarean-delivered pups were used as controls. The effect of perinatal asphyxia on neurocircuitry development was studied in vitro with organotypic cultures from substantia nigra, neostriatum and neocortex, platted on a coverslip 3 days after birth. After approximately one month in vitro (DIV 25), the cultures were treated for immunocytochemistry to characterise neuronal phenotype with markers against the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor subunit 1 (NR1), the dopamine pacemaker enzyme tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), and nitric oxide synthase (NOS), the enzyme regulating the bioavailability of NO. Nicotinamide (0.8 mmol/kg, i.p.) or saline was administered to asphyctic and caesarean-delivered pups 24, 48 and 72 h after birth. It was found that nicotinamide treatment prevented the effect of perinatal asphyxia on several neuronal parameters, including TH- and NOS-positive neurite atrophy and NOS-positive neuronal loss; supporting the idea that nicotinamide constitutes a therapeutic alternative for the effects produced by sustained energy-failure conditions, as occurring during perinatal asphyxia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Activation of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) is deleterious during cerebral ischemia. We assessed the influence of PARP activation induced by cerebral ischemia on the synthesis of proinflammatory mediators including the cytokines, tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) and the adhesion molecules, E-selectin and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1). EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Ischemia was induced by intravascular occlusion of the left middle cerebral artery for 1 h in male Swiss mice anaesthetized with ketamine and xylazine. The PARP inhibitor PJ34 (1.25-25 mg kg(-1)) was administered intraperitoneally 15 min before and 4 hours after, the onset of ischemia. Animals were killed 6 h or 24 h after ischemia and cerebral tissue removed for analysis. KEY RESULTS Ischemia increased TNF-alpha protein in cerebral tissue at 6 and 24 h after ischemia. All doses of PJ34 blocked the increase in TNF-alpha at 6 h and 25 mg kg(-1) PJ34 had a sustained effect for up to 24 h. Quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction showed that PJ34 (25 mg kg(-1)) reduced the increase in TNF-alpha mRNA by 70% at 6 h. PJ34 also prevented the increase in mRNAs encoding IL-6 (-41%), E-selectin (-81%) and ICAM-1 (-54%). PJ34 (25 mg kg(-1)) reduced the infarct volume (-26%) and improved neurological deficit, 24 h after ischemia. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS PJ34 inhibited the increase in the mRNAs of four inflammatory mediators, caused by cerebral ischemia. The contribution of this effect of PJ34 to neuroprotection remains to be clarified.

Abstract
Cardiomyocytic apoptosis occurs after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) despite the use of perfusion techniques and cardioplegic solutions. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) cause single-strand DNA breaks and activate nuclear poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), which leads to cellular damage. Therefore, the inhibition of PARP might protect cardiomyocytes from oxidative injuries. In this study, experiments were designed to determine whether a PARP inhibitor could decrease the myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury after cardioplegia-induced global cardiac arrest under CPB, attenuate the appearance of cardiomyocytic apoptosis, and decrease damage from ROS. New Zealand white rabbits (10 in each group) were subjected to total CPB. Rabbits were weaned from CPB and reperfused for 4 h before the hearts were harvested. 3-Aminobenzamide and/or 3-aminobenzoic acid was added to the cardioplegic solution. The ascending aorta was cross-clamped for 60 min while intermittent cold crystalloid cardioplegic solution was infused into the aortic root every 20 min. The reperfused hearts were harvested and studied for evidence of apoptosis using the TUNEL method and Western blot analyses. The oxidative insults were checked using ELISA to detect plasma isoprostane and cytokines levels. The occurrence of cardiomyocytic apoptosis was significantly less in PARP inhibitor recipients than in PARP-inhibitor-naive controls. Plasma isoprostane and various cytokines were significantly elevated in PARP-inhibitor-naive controls but significantly reduced in PARP inhibitor recipients. Western blot analysis revealed similar patterns. PARP inhibitor-supplemented crystalloid cardioplegic solution diminished postischemic cardiomyocytic apoptosis and ROS-mediated injuries after global cardiac arrest under CPB, possibly via inhibiting both caspase-dependent and -independent apoptotic pathways, which also preserved postischemic myocardial contractility.

Abstract
The continuous production of the CXC ligand 1 (CXCL1) chemokine by melanoma cells is a major effector of tumor growth. We have previously shown that the constitutive expression of this chemokine is dependent upon transcription factors nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kappaB), stimulating protein-1 (SP1), high-mobility group-I/Y (HMGI/Y), CAAT displacement protein (CDP) and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1). In this study, we demonstrate for the first time the mechanism of transcriptional regulation of CXCL1 through PARP-1 in melanoma cells. In its inactive state, PARP-1 binds to the CXCL1 promoter in a sequence-specific manner and prevents binding of NF-kappaB (p65/p50) to its element. However, activation of the PARP-1 enzymatic activity enhances CXCL1 expression, owing to the loss of PARP-1 binding to the CXCL1 promoter, accompanied by enhanced binding of p65 to the promoter. The delineation of the role of NF-kappaB-interacting factors in the putative CXCL1 enhanceosome will provide key information in developing strategies to block constitutive expression of this and other chemokines in cancer and to develop targeted therapy.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1), when activated by DNA damage, promotes both cell death and inflammation. Here we report that PARP-1 enzymatic activity is directly inhibited by minocycline and other tetracycline derivatives that have previously been shown to have neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory actions. These agents were evaluated by using cortical neuron cultures in which PARP-1 activation was induced by the genotoxic agents N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) or 3-morpholinosydnonimine (SIN-1). In both conditions, neuronal death was reduced by >80% either by 10 muM 3,4-dihydro-5-[4-(1-piperidinyl)butoxy]-1(2H)-isoquinolinone, an established PARP inhibitor, or by 100 nM minocycline. Neuronal NAD(+) depletion and poly(ADP-ribose) formation, which are biochemical markers of PARP-1 activation, were also blocked by 100 nM minocycline. A direct, competitive inhibition of PARP-1 by minocycline (K(i) = 13.8 +/- 1.5 nM) was confirmed by using recombinant PARP-1 in a cell-free assay. Comparison of several tetracycline derivatives showed a strong correlation (r(2) = 0.87) between potency as a PARP-1 inhibitor and potency as a neuroprotective agent during MNNG incubations, with the rank order of potency being minocycline > doxycycline > demeclocycline > chlortetracycline. These compounds are known to have other actions that could contribute their neuroprotective effects, but at far higher concentrations than shown here to inhibit PARP-1. The neuroprotective and antiinflammatory effects of minocycline and other tetracycline derivatives may be attributable to PARP-1 inhibition in some settings.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) participates in a variety of physiologic and pathophysiologic processes in diverse tissues, including the kidney. Although mechanisms for cytokine induction of inducible nitric-oxide synthase (iNOS) have been increasingly clarified, the controls for termination of NO production remain unclear. Because excessive NO production can be cytotoxic to host cells, feedback inhibition of iNOS transcription would represent a means of cytoprotection. Many of the cGMP-independent functions of NO are mediated by S-nitrosylation of cysteine thiols of target proteins. We hypothesized that NO-mediated S-nitrosylation of transcription factors might serve to feedback inhibit their trans-activation potential and deactivate iNOS gene transcription. Transient transfection of murine mesangial cells with iNOS promoter deletion-luciferase constructs revealed the region -915 to -849 to be NO sensitive with respect to IL-1beta-induced promoter activity. In vitro DNase I footprinting identified a footprint at -865/-842 in the absence of NO, but not in the presence of endogenous or exogenously delivered NO. Southwestern blotting using this probe coupled with partial peptide sequencing of the protein bands revealed that poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase isoform 1 (PARP-1) bound the probe in a sequence-specific manner. Gel shift/supershift experiments and chromatin immunoprecipitation assay analysis confirmed this binding in vitro and in vivo. Functionally, mutation of the -859/-850 site to prevent PARP-1 binding or PARP-1 knockdown by RNA interference relieved the inhibitory effects of NO on iNOS promoter activity. Biotin-switch assays and co-immunoprecipitation with an anti-nitrocysteine antibody indicated that PARP-1 was S-nitrosylated. We conclude that NO feedback inhibits iNOS gene transcription by S-nitrosylating the trans-activator PARP-1 and decreasing its binding and/or action at the iNOS promoter.

Abstract
Oxidative DNA damage, as occurs during exacerbations in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), highly activates the nuclear enzyme poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase-1 (PARP-1). This can lead to cellular depletion of its substrate NAD+, resulting in an energy crisis and ultimately in cell death. Inhibition of PARP-1 results in preservation of the intracellular NAD+ pool, and of NAD+-dependent cellular processes. In this study, PARP-1 activation by hydrogen peroxide decreased intracellular NAD+ levels in human pulmonary epithelial cells, which was found to be prevented in a dose-dependent manner by theophylline, a widely used compound in the treatment of COPD. This enzyme inhibition by theophylline was confirmed in an ELISA using purified human PARP-1 and was found to be competitive by nature. These findings provide new mechanistic insights into the therapeutic effect of theophylline in oxidative stress-induced lung pathologies.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) plays a critical role in endothelial cell dysfunction associated with various pathophysiological conditions. To elucidate PARP-1 pathways involved in endothelial cell dysfunction, it is essential to establish "in vitro" experimental models using isolated endothelial cells. So far, two approaches have been used: primary endothelial cells from PARP-1-/- mice which have a limited life-span, being a major handicap if large quantities of cells are required; and pharmacological inhibition of PARP in PARP-1+/+ endothelial cell lines, which is not specific for PARP-1 and would have biological effects different that genetic inhibition. To overcome these limitations, we have established an immortalized PARP-1-/- endothelial cell line (HYKO6) by transfection of primary cells with a plasmid containing the SV40 genome and selected on the basis of morphological and phenotypical features. The HYKO6 cell line exhibited endothelial characteristics, such as constitutive expression of CD105, CD31, ICAM-2, VCAM-1, and von Willebrand factor and formation of capillary-like structures (CLS) on Matrigel surface. However, expression of ICAM-1 antigen is lost in the HYKO6 cells. After TNF-alpha treatment, HYKO6 cells exhibited increased expression of E-selectin and VCAM-1. Likewise, NF-kappaB-dependent transcriptional activation was increased in the HYKO6 cell line in response to TNF-alpha at a level similar to that found for primary PARP-1-/- cells. This cell line should provide, for the first time, a valuable tool to study PARP-1 pathways in endothelial cell dysfunction.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) and nuclear factor kappaB (NF-kappaB) have both been demonstrated to play a pathophysiological role in a number of inflammatory disorders. We recently presented evidence that PARP-1 can act as a promoter-specific coactivator of NF-kappaB in vivo independent of its enzymatic activity. PARP-1 directly interacts with p300 and both subunits of NF-kappaB (p65 and p50) and synergistically coactivates NF-kappaB-dependent transcription. Here we show that PARP-1 is acetylated in vivo at specific lysine residues by p300/CREB-binding protein upon stimulation. Furthermore, acetylation of PARP-1 at these residues is required for the interaction of PARP-1 with p50 and synergistic coactivation of NF-kappaB by p300 and the Mediator complex in response to inflammatory stimuli. PARP-1 physically interacts with the Mediator. Interestingly, PARP-1 interacts in vivo with histone deacetylases (HDACs) 1-3 but not with HDACs 4-6 and might be deacetylated in vivo by HDACs 1-3. Thus, acetylation of PARP-1 by p300/CREB-binding protein plays an important regulatory role in NF-kappaB-dependent gene activation by enhancing its functional interaction with p300 and the Mediator complex.

Abstract
Over the past decade, poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation has emerged as a crucial event in the pathogenesis of ischemic stroke. A large body of evidence unambiguously demonstrates that activity of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) significantly increases during brain ischemia, and that inhibition of this enzymatic activity affords substantial neuroprotection from ischemic brain injury. This review strictly focuses on literature on poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation and ischemic stroke, highlighting the pathogenetic role of poly(ADP-ribose) in ischemic neuronal death, and the therapeutic relevance of drugs modulating its metabolism to pharmacological treatment of cerebral ischemia.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation is regulated by the synthesizing enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) and the degrading enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG). Homeostasis of poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation has been proposed to be an important regulator for pathogenesis in multi-cellular organisms. Although the role of PARP-1 in tissue damage, inflammation and ischemia has been extensively studied, the function of PARG in various cellular processes is largely unknown. Recent studies using chemical inhibitors of PARG and genetically engineered Drosophila and mouse models that carry a disrupted PARG gene have started to shed new light on the biological function of PARG in vivo. These animal models and cells isolated from them will be useful for further validation of PARG as a potential pharmaceutical target to intervene the pathogenesis induced by acute tissue injury, ischemia and inflammation.

Abstract
This study examined the efficiency of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) integration in poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase-1 (PARP-1)-deficient murine cells and in human cell lines transfected with small interfering RNA against PARP-1 (PARP-1 siRNA). To semi-quantify the amount of integrated HIV-1 genome, real-time nested PCR was carried out using primers specific for Alu and alphoid DNA combined with primers for the HIV-1 genome. The results showed that the integration efficiency of the HIV-1 genome near Alu DNA, which is randomly distributed in the chromosome, is reduced in PARP-1-deficient murine cells, but not in PARP-1 siRNA-transfected human cells. By contrast, the integration efficiency of the HIV-1 genome near alphoid DNA, which is localized in the centromere region, is significantly reduced in PARP-1-deficient murine cells and in PARP-1 siRNA-transfected human cells. These results suggest that PARP-1 is required for HIV-1 integration near the centromere region both in human and murine cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Individuals may develop tolerance to the induction of adverse pulmonary effects following repeated exposures to inhaled toxicants. Previously, we demonstrated that genetic background plays an important role in the development of pulmonary tolerance to inhaled zinc oxide (ZnO) in inbred mouse strains, as assessed by polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs), macrophages, and total protein in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) phenotypes. The BALB/cByJ (CBy) and DBA/2J (D2) strains were identified as tolerant and non-tolerant, respectively. The present study was designed to identify candidate genes that control the development of pulmonary tolerance to inhaled ZnO. METHODS Genome-wide linkage analyses were performed on a CByD2F2 mouse cohort phenotyped for BAL protein, PMNs, and macrophages following 5 consecutive days of exposure to 1.0 mg/m3 inhaled ZnO for 3 hours/day. A haplotype analysis was carried out to determine the contribution of each quantitative trait locus (QTL) and QTL combination to the overall BAL protein phenotype. Candidate genes were identified within each QTL interval using the positional candidate gene approach. RESULTS A significant quantitative trait locus (QTL) on chromosome 1, as well as suggestive QTLs on chromosomes 4 and 5, for the BAL protein phenotype, was established. Suggestive QTLs for the BAL PMN and macrophage phenotypes were also identified on chromosomes 1 and 5, respectively. Analysis of specific haplotypes supports the combined effect of three QTLs in the overall protein phenotype. Toll-like receptor 5 (Tlr5) was identified as an interesting candidate gene within the significant QTL for BAL protein on chromosome 1. Wild-derived Tlr5-mutant MOLF/Ei mice were tolerant to BAL protein following repeated ZnO exposure. CONCLUSION Genetic background is an important influence in the acquisition of pulmonary tolerance to BAL protein, PMNs, and macrophages following ZnO exposure. Promising candidate genes exist within the identified QTL intervals that would be good targets for additional studies, including Tlr5. The implications of tolerance to health risks in humans are numerous, and this study furthers the understanding of gene-environment interactions that are likely to be important factors from person-to-person in regulating the development of pulmonary tolerance to inhaled toxicants.

Abstract
RelA (NF-kappaB) is a transcription factor inducible by distinct stimuli in many different cell types. To find new cell type specific cofactors of NF-kappaB dependent transcription, we isolated RelA transcription activation domain binding proteins from the nuclear extracts of three different cell types. Analysis by electrophoresis and liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry identified several novel putative molecular partners. Some were strongly enriched in the complex formed from the nuclear extracts of specific cell types.
