Abstract
Synthesis of ADP-ribose polymers catalyzed by poly-(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) has been implicated in transcriptional regulation. Recent studies with PARP-1 null mice and PARP-1 inhibitors have also demonstrated that PARP-1 has an essential role in nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB)-dependent gene expression induced by various inflammatory stimuli. In this study, we used primary cultured mouse glial cells to investigate the role of poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation by PARP-1 in NF-kappaB-dependent gene expression. PARP-1 inhibitors and the antisense RNA for PARP-1 mRNA suppressed lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced expression of tumor necrosis factor-alpha and inducible nitric-oxide synthase, suggesting that PARP-1 activity has a critical role in synthesis. Western blotting with anti-poly(ADP-ribose) antibody revealed that PARP-1 itself was mainly poly(ADP-ribosyl)ated in glial cells, i.e. automodified PARP-1 (AM-PARP). The amounts of AM-PARP were not affected by LPS treatment, but were decreased by PARP-1 inhibitors. Electrophoretic mobility shift assay revealed that PARP-1 inhibitors and the antisense RNA for PARP-1 mRNA reduced the LPS-induced DNA binding of NF-kappaB. Non-modified PARP-1 also reduced the DNA binding of NF-kappaB via its physical association with NF-kappaB, whereas AM-PARP had no effect. On the other hand, enhancement of the automodification of PARP-1 by the addition of NAD+, its substrate, promoted the DNA binding of NF-kappaB. Furthermore, in in vitro transcription assay, the addition of AM-PARP or NAD+ to nuclear extracts promoted NF-kappaB p50-dependent transcription. These results indicate that automodification of PARP-1 positively up-regulates formation of the NF-kappaB.DNA complex and enhances transcriptional activation. Therefore, AM-PARP may be critical for the NF-kappaB-dependent gene expression of some inflammatory mediators in glial cells.

Abstract
During the past decade, enormous advances have been made in cell biology. Major advances included the publication of the human genome sequence, the development of proteomics, and DNA microarray technologies and techniques to selectively "silence" genes using short strands of double-stranded RNA. Some areas of great progress that are particularly relevant to critical care medicine include huge improvements in our understanding of the signal transduction pathways involved in the innate immune response and adaptation to hypoxia. Other areas of important progress include improvements in our understanding of how inflammation causes derangements in epithelial structure and function and impairs cellular utilization of oxygen.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation is a post-translational modification that occurs immediately after exposure of cells to DNA damaging agents. In vivo, 90% of ADP-ribose polymers are attached to the automodification domain of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1), the main enzyme catalyzing this modification reaction. This enzyme forms complexes with transcription initiation, DNA replication, and DNA repair factors. In most known cases, the interactions occur through the automodification domain. However, functional implications of the automodification reaction on these interactions have not yet been elucidated. In the present study, we created fluorescent protein-tagged PARP-1 to study this enzyme in live cells and focused on the interaction between PARP-1 and topoisomerase I (Topo I), one of the enzymes that interacts with PARP-1 in vitro. Here, we demonstrate that PARP-1 co-localizes with Topo I throughout the cell cycle. Results from bioluminescence resonance energy transfer assays suggest that the co-localization is because of a direct protein-protein interaction. In response to DNA damage, PARP-1 de-localization and a reduction in bioluminescence resonance energy transfer signal because of the automodification reaction are observed, suggesting that the automodification reaction results in the disruption of the interaction between PARP-1 and Topo I. Because Topo I activity has been reported to be promoted by PARP-1, we then investigated the effect of the disruption of this interaction on Topo I activity, and we found that this disruption results in the reduction of Topo I activity. These results suggest that a function for the automodification reaction is to regulate the interaction between PARP-1 and Topo I, and consequently, the Topo I activity, in response to DNA damage.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Excessive nitric oxide (NO) and especially peroxynitrite may cause pulmonary tissue damage, e.g., through lipid peroxidation and/or exhaustion of cellular energy depletion induced by activation of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP). Furthermore, PARP seems to aggravate tissue destruction by regulating the expression of respective genes. DESIGN Prospective animal study. SETTING University research laboratory. INTERVENTION We investigated the effect of competitive PARP inhibition by 3-aminobenzamide (3-AB) on the pulmonary iNOS pathway after infusion of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). MEASUREMENTS AND RESULTS The pretreatment of rabbits with 3-AB attenuated the LPS-induced iNOS mRNA and protein expression analyzed by RT-PCR and Western blot, and plasma nitrite concentrations quantified by Griess reaction (71+/-6%, 93+/-6% vs baseline). Electromobility shift assay showed an enhanced NF-kappaB and attenuated AP-1 activation after 3-AB vs LPS alone. Lipid peroxidation determined as levels of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances in plasma and lung tissue was reduced by 50% in the LPS+3-AB in comparison to LPS alone. Simultaneously, 3-AB was able to inhibit correspondingly the LPS-induced extravasation of gold-labeled albumin and increase of alveolo-arterial oxygen difference. CONCLUSION PARP regulates the pulmonary NO pathway during endotoxemia via AP-1 and not NF-kappaB. Thus, pharmacological inhibition of PARP might be an effective intervention to prevent endotoxin-induced lung injury, interrupting the vicious circle of NO production and PARP activation.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases are involved in many aspects of regulation of cellular functions. Using NAD+ as a substrate, they catalyse the covalent transfer of ADP-ribose units onto several acceptor proteins to form a branched ADP-ribose polymer. The best characterised and first discovered member of this multiprotein family is PARP-1. Its catalytic activity is markedly stimulated upon binding to DNA strand interruptions, and the resulting polymer is thought to function in chromatin relaxation as well as in signalling the presence of damage to DNA repair complexes and in regulating enzyme activities. Moderate activation of PARP-1 facilitates the efficient repair of DNA damage arising from monofunctional alkylating agents, reactive oxygen species or ionising radiation, but severe genotoxic stress leads to rapid energy consumption and subsequently to necrotic cell death. The latter aspect of PARP-1 activity has been implicated in the pathogenesis of various clinical conditions such as shock, ischaemia-reperfusion and diabetes. Inhibition of ADP-ribose polymer formation has been shown to be effective, on the one hand, in the treatment of cancer in combination with alkylating agents by suppressing DNA repair and thus driving tumour cells into apoptosis, and on the other hand it appears to be a promising drug target for the treatment of pathologic conditions involving oxidative stress. In view of the existence of several members of the PARP family in mammalian cells, one has to be aware of possible side effects but also of a wide spectrum of potential clinical applications, which calls for the development of more specific inhibitors.

Abstract
To investigate possible causes of the variable response to treatment in pediatric B-precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and to establish potential novel therapeutic targets, we used ionizing radiation (IR) exposure as a model of DNA damage formation to identify tumors with resistance to p53-dependent apoptosis. Twenty-one of 40 ALL tumors responded normally to IR, exhibiting accumulation of p53 and p21 proteins and cleavage of caspases 3, 7, and 9 and of PARP1. Nineteen tumors exhibited apoptotic resistance and lacked PARP1 and caspase cleavage; although 15 of these tumors had normal accumulation of p53 and p21 proteins, examples exhibited abnormal expression of TRAF5, TRAF6, and cIAP1 after IR, suggesting increased NF-kappaB prosurvival signaling as the mechanism of apoptotic resistance. The presence of a hyperactive PARP1 mutation in one tumor was consistent with such increased NF-kappaB activity. PARP1 inhibition restored p53-dependent apoptosis after IR in these leukemias by reducing NF-kappaB DNA binding and transcriptional activity. In the remaining 4 ALL tumors, apoptotic resistance was associated with a TP53 mutation or with defective activation of p53. We conclude that increased NF-kappaB prosurvival signaling is a frequent mechanism by which B-precursor ALL tumors develop apoptotic resistance to IR and that PARP1 inhibition may improve the DNA damage response of these leukemias.

Abstract
The enzymatic transfer of ADP-ribose from NAD to histone H(1) [defined as trans(oligo-ADP-ribosylation)] or to PARP-1 [defined as auto(poly-ADP-ribosylation)] requires binding of coenzymic DNA. The preceding paper [Kun, E., et al. (2004) Biochemistry 43, 210-216] shows that oligonucleotides of dsDNA can serve as coenzymic DNA for PARP-1 trans- or auto-modification activity. Results of DNA-protein binding (EMSA) experiments reported here demonstrate that short DNA oligonucleotides containing the 5'-TGTTG-3' nucleotide sequence motif preferentially bind to cloned PARP-1 in vitro. The same nucleotide sequence motif is responsible for striated myocyte-selective transcription of a contractile protein gene encoding cardiac troponin T (cTnT). Results of experiments reported here demonstrate that mutation of this motif also abolishes the differentiation-dependent activation of the transfected cTnT promoter in myoblasts cultured in vitro, indicating that nucleotide sequence-dependent binding of PARP-1 to promoter DNA of the cTnT gene is also necessary for differentiation-dependent activation. Thus, PARP-1 has two types of dsDNA binding activity: (1) nucleotide sequence-dependent binding, analyzed here with EMSA experiments, and (2) coenzymic binding, measured catalytically, which does not depend on the nucleotide sequence of the dsDNA. We hypothesize that the well-known association of PARP-1 with chromatin can be attributed to its stable binding to chromosomal dsDNA, some portion of which is likely to be nucleotide sequence-dependent binding. According to this hypothesis, the distribution of this protein-modifying enzyme in chromatin may be targeted to specific genomic loci and vary according to cell type and developmental stage.

Abstract
Although the bubonic plague or "Black Death" is notorious for the toll it took on the population of Europe in the middle ages, another epidemic, the "White Death" of tuberculosis is responsible for millions of deaths worldwide over the past 300 years. With one in four deaths due to tuberculosis in Western Europe and the United States in the 19th century, this disease undoubtedly acted as a powerful genetic selective force. The epidemiology of modern day rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is strikingly similar to the epidemiology of tuberculosis 100-200 years ago, suggesting the possibility that genetic factors that enhanced survival in tuberculosis epidemics are now influencing susceptibility to RA. Recent advances in the analysis of genetic polymorphisms associated with disease have identified several genes linked to RA susceptibility that encode proteins involved in the immune response to Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection, including TNF-alpha, NRAMP1, PARP-1, HLA-DRB1, and PADI4. These results suggest that rheumatoid arthritis, and possibly other autoimmune diseases, are modern day manifestations of the genetic selective pressure exerted by tuberculosis epidemics of the recent past.

Abstract
Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1)-deficient mice are protected against septic shock, type I diabetes, stroke and inflammation. It is now accepted that inflammation and related events, such as activation of NF-kappaB, are key components in the initiation and progression of epithelial cancer and in particular in the neoplastic transformation of keratinocytes and skin carcinogenesis. Here, we report that PARP-1-deficient mice display a strikingly reduced susceptibility to skin carcinogenesis. In parp-1(-/-) mice, development of papilloma-like premalignant lesions induced with DMBA and TPA, is strongly delayed and the final number of tumor-bearing mice and total tumor number were significantly reduced. In addition, epidermis of parp-1(-/-) mice did not show increased proliferation rates after treatment with carcinogen. Deregulated NF-kappaB is a hallmark for tumorigenesis together with the concomitant release of early inflammatory mediators. In the absence of PARP-1, NF-kappaB activation and induction kappaB-target genes did not take place during the promotion of tumor development. These results suggest that PARP-1 abolition impairs the promotion of skin carcinogenesis interfering with the activation of NF-kappaB and might have an important implication in targeting PARP-1 as a new antineoplastic therapeutic approach.

Abstract
Activation of the nuclear enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) is involved in numerous pathophysiological conditions. Because PARP-1 knockout mice are resistant to endotoxin-induced shock and inhibitors of the enzyme were reported to have similar beneficial properties, we investigated the effect of 4-hydroxyquinazoline (4-HQN), a potent PARP-1 inhibitor, on the modulation of kinase cascades and the regulation of transcription factors in a rodent septic shock model. T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging showed the pattern of anatomical localization of the inflammatory response in bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-treated mice and the anti-inflammatory effect of the PARP-1 inhibitor. We have found that 4-HQN activated the phosphatidylinositol 3 (PI3)-kinase/Akt pathway in lung, liver, and spleen, and down-regulated two elements of the MAP kinase system. Namely, it dramatically attenuated the activation of the LPS-induced extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)1/2 and p38 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase in a tissue-specific manner. Furthermore, phosphorylation of p90RSK, a downstream target of ERK1/2, showed a similar pattern of down-regulation as did the phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and p38 after LPS and 4-HQN treatment. As a consequence of the aforementioned effects on the kinase pathways, 4-HQN decreased the activation of transcription factor nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) and activator protein 1 (AP-1) in LPS-induced endotoxic shock. Our results provide evidence for the first time that the beneficial effects of PARP inhibition in endotoxic shock, such as attenuation of NF-kappaB- and AP-1 transcription factor activation, are mediated, at least partially, through the regulation of the PI3-kinase/Akt pathway and MAP kinase cascades.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) has been involved in endothelial cell dysfunction associated with various pathophysiological conditions. The intrinsic mechanism of PARP-1-mediated endothelial cell dysfunction could be related to PARP-1 overactivation, NAD(+) consumption and ATP depletion. An alternative way could involve transcription regulation. By using high-density microarrays, we examined early tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha)-stimulated gene expression profiles in PARP-1(+/+) and PARP-1(-/-) murine heart endothelial cells. TNF-alpha modulated a significant number of genes in both cell types. We have identified a set of genes whose expression in response to TNF-alpha is modulated by PARP-1, whereas the expression of others is PARP-1-independent. Up-regulation of several genes involved in the inflammatory response is hampered in the absence of PARP-1. Moreover, NF-kappaB-dependent transcriptional activation is partially inhibited in PARP-1(-/-) compared to PARP-1(+/+) cells. However, we found that PARP-1 might also silence transcription of several NF-kappaB target genes. Overall, our results show that PARP-1 is regulating the expression of genes by the endothelial cells both in a positive and a negative fashion, with the final effects depending on the gene. Individual studies of these genes are now necessary to clarify the intrinsic mechanism by which PARP-1 is controlling transcription and thereby finding out different therapeutic approaches involving PARP-1.

Abstract
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic demyelinating disease in which it has only recently been suggested that damage to neuronal structures plays a key role. Here, we uncovered a link between the release of lipid breakdown products, found in the brain and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of MS patients as well as in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis, and neuronal damage mediated by microglial activation. The concentrations of the breakdown product 7-ketocholesterol detected in the CSF of MS patients were capable of inducing neuronal damage via the activation and migration of microglial cells in living brain tissue. 7-ketocholesterol rapidly entered the nucleus and activated poly(ADP-ribose)-polymerase (PARP)-1, followed by the expression of migration-regulating integrins CD11a and intercellular adhesion molecule 1. These findings reveal a novel mechanism linking demyelination and progressive neuronal damage, which might represent an underlying insidious process driving disease beyond a primary white matter phenomenon and rendering the microglial PARP-1 a possible antiinflammatory therapeutic target.

Abstract
OAZ is a multi zinc finger protein which interacts with several distinct nuclear proteins including Olf-1/EBF, Smad1, and Smad4 and regulates transcription of various genes. Here we show that poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (Parp1) forms a complex with OAZ and positively regulates BMP-target genes, Xenopus Vent-2 and mouse Smad6 genes. Both wild type and the mutant forms of Parp1, which is deficient in poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase activity, constitutively interact with OAZ; however, the mutant Parp1 did not activate transcription. These results suggest that poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase activity is essential for the transcriptional activation of Vent-2 and Smad6. These results suggest that Parp1 serves as a transcriptional coactivator of OAZ in BMP-dependent gene regulation.

Abstract
The transcription factor E2F-1 is implicated in the activation of S-phase genes as well as induction of apoptosis, and is regulated by interactions with Rb and by cell cycle-dependent alterations in E2F-1 abundance. We earlier demonstrated a pivotal role for poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) in the regulation of E2F-1 expression and promoter activity during S-phase re-entry when quiescent cells re-enter the cell cycle. We now investigate the putative mechanism(s) by which PARP-1 may upregulate E2F-1 promoter activity during S-phase re-entry. DNase-1 footprint assays with purified PARP-1 showed that PARP-1 did not directly bind the E2F-1 promoter in a sequence-specific manner. In contrast to p53, a positive acceptor in poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation reactions, E2F-1 was not poly(ADP-ribosyl)ated by wild-type PARP-1 in vitro, indicating that PARP-1 does not exert a dual effect on E2F-1 transcriptional activation. Protein-binding reactions and coimmunoprecipitation experiments with purified PARP-1 and E2F-1, however, revealed that PARP-1 binds to E2F-1 in vitro. More significantly, physical association of PARP-1 and E2F-1 in vivo also occurred in wild-type fibroblasts 5 h after re-entry into S phase, coincident with the increase in E2F-1 promoter activity and expression of E2F-1-responsive S-phase genes cyclin A and c-Myc. Mapping of the interaction domains revealed that full-length PARP-1 as well as PARP-1 mutants lacking either the catalytic active site or the DNA-binding domain equally bind E2F-1, whereas a PARP-1 mutant lacking the automodification domain does not, suggesting that the protein interaction site is located in this central domain. Finally, gel shift analysis with end-blocked E2F-1 promoter sequence probes verified that the binding of PARP-1 to E2F-1 enhances binding to the E2F-1 promoter, indicating that PARP-1 acts as a positive cofactor of E2F-1-mediated transcription.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1), a nuclear enzyme activated in response to DNA strand breaks, has been implicated in cell dysfunction in myocardial reperfusion injury. PARP-1 has also been shown to participate in transcription and regulation of gene expression. In this study, we investigated the role of PARP-1 on the signal transduction pathway of activator protein-1 (AP-1) and heat shock factor-1 (HSF-1) in myocardial reperfusion injury. Mice genetically deficient of PARP-1 (PARP-1(-/-) mice) exhibited a significant reduction of myocardial damage after occlusion and reperfusion of the left anterior descending branch of the coronary artery compared with their wild-type littermates. This cardioprotection was associated with a reduction of the phosphorylative activity of JNK and, subsequently, reduction of the DNA binding of the signal transduction factor AP-1. On the contrary, in PARP-1(-/-) mice, DNA binding of HSF-1 was enhanced and was associated with a significant increase of the cardioprotective heat shock protein (HSP)70 compared with wild-type mice. Microarray analysis revealed that expression of several AP-1-dependent genes of proinflammatory mediators and HSPs was altered in PARP-1(-/-) mice. The data indicate that PARP-1 may exert a pathological role in reperfusion injury by functioning as an enhancing factor of AP-1 activation and as a repressing factor of HSF-1 activation and HSP70 expression.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) was shown to be detrimental in cerebral ischemia but the mechanisms whereby PARP is deleterious have yet to be determined. They may include a role in neutrophil infiltration known to aggravate ischemic damage. In this context, we investigated the effect of 3-aminobenzamide (3-AB), a PARP inhibitor, on brain damage and neutrophil infiltration after transient focal cerebral ischemia in mice. Ischemia was induced in male Swiss mice, anaesthetized with chloral hydrate (400 mg/kg, i.p.), by a 15-min-occlusion of the left middle cerebral artery using an intraluminal suture. Treatments with 3-AB were first administered intraperitoneally 15 min before reperfusion and endpoints measured at 24 h. Among the range of dosages studied (20-320 mg/kg), 40 mg/kg gave the maximal neuroprotection with a 30% decrease in the infarct volume and tended to improve the neurological score evaluated by a grip test. The same dosage was, however, devoid of effect when injection was delayed 2 or 6 h after reperfusion. Myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity used as an index of neutrophil infiltration showed that infiltration peaked 48 h after reperfusion in our model. At this time point, 3-AB (40 mg/kg given 15 min before reperfusion) markedly reduced the neutrophil infiltration, as evidenced by a 72%-decrease in MPO activity, and was still neuroprotective. Our results confirm that 3-AB reduces brain damage. Moreover, for the first time, a quantitative study shows that 3-AB decreases neutrophil infiltration elicited by cerebral ischemia.

Abstract
NF-kappaB-dependent, as well as human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) long terminal repeat (LTR)-dependent, reporter gene expression was significantly impaired in cells derived from poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1)-knockout (PARP-1 -/-) mice. In addition, the level of protein acetylation was markedly lower in PARP-1 -/- cells than control (PARP-1 +/+) cells. Surprisingly, the expression levels of histone acetyltransferases (HATs), p300, cAMP response element-binding protein-binding protein (CBP), and p300/CBP-associated factor (PCAF), were significantly reduced in PARP-1 -/- cells, as compared with PARP-1 +/+ cells. These results suggest that PARP-1 is required for the proper expression of particular HATs. Since p300 and CBP are coactivators of NF-kappaB, we propose here that PARP-1 participates in NF-kappaB-dependent transcription by means of maintaining the expression of HATs.

Abstract
Nuclear factor kappaB (NF-kappaB) plays an important role in the transcriptional regulation of genes involved in inflammation and cell survival. In this study, we demonstrated that NF-kappaB-dependent gene expression was inhibited by E1A in poly(ADP)-ribose polymerase-1 knock out (PARP-1 (-/-)) cells complemented with wild type PARP-1 after tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) or lipopolysaccharide (LPS) treatment. PARP-1 and p300 synergistically coactivated NF-kappaB-dependent gene expression in response to TNFalpha and LPS. Furthermore, PARP-1 interacted directly with p300 and enhanced the interaction of NF-kappaB1/p50 to p300. The C terminus, harboring the catalytic domain of PARP-1 but not its enzymatic activity, was required for complete transcriptional coactivation of NF-kappaB by p300 in response to TNFalpha and LPS. Together, these results indicate that PARP-1 acts synergistically with p300 and plays an essential regulatory role in NF-kappaB-dependent gene expression.

Abstract
In this report, we show that hyperglycemia-induced overproduction of superoxide by the mitochondrial electron transport chain activates the three major pathways of hyperglycemic damage found in aortic endothelial cells by inhibiting GAPDH activity. In bovine aortic endothelial cells, GAPDH antisense oligonucleotides activated each of the pathways of hyperglycemic vascular damage in cells cultured in 5 mM glucose to the same extent as that induced by culturing cells in 30 mM glucose. Hyperglycemia-induced GAPDH inhibition was found to be a consequence of poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation of GAPDH by poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), which was activated by DNA strand breaks produced by mitochondrial superoxide overproduction. Both the hyperglycemia-induced decrease in activity of GAPDH and its poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation were prevented by overexpression of either uncoupling protein-1 (UCP-1) or manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD), which decrease hyperglycemia-induced superoxide. Overexpression of UCP-1 or MnSOD also prevented hyperglycemia-induced DNA strand breaks and activation of PARP. Hyperglycemia-induced activation of each of the pathways of vascular damage was abolished by blocking PARP activity with the competitive PARP inhibitors PJ34 or INO-1001. Elevated glucose increased poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation of GAPDH in WT aortae, but not in the aortae from PARP-1-deficient mice. Thus, inhibition of PARP blocks hyperglycemia-induced activation of multiple pathways of vascular damage.

Abstract
During systemic inflammation, recruitment and activation of leukocytes in the pulmonary microcirculation may result in a potentially life-threatening acute lung injury. We elucidated the role of the poly(ADP-ribose) synthetase (PARS), a nucleotide-polymerizing enzyme, in the regulation of leukocyte recruitment within the lung with regard to the localization in the pulmonary microcirculation and in correlation to hemodynamics in the respective vascular segments and expression of intercellular adhesion molecule 1 during endotoxemia. Inhibition of PARS by 3-aminobenzamide reduced the endotoxin-induced leukocyte recruitment within pulmonary arterioles, capillaries, and venules in rabbits as quantified by in vivo fluorescence microscopy. Microhemodynamics and thus shear rates in all pulmonary microvascular segments remained constant. Simultaneously, inhibition of PARS with 3-aminobenzamide suppressed the endotoxin-induced adhesion molecules expression as demonstrated for intercellular adhesion molecule 1 by immunohistochemistry and Western blot analysis. We confirmed this result with the use of PARS knockout mice. The inhibitory effect of 3-aminobenzamide on leukocyte recruitment was associated with a reduction of pulmonary capillary leakage and edema formation. We first provide evidence that PARS activation mediates the leukocyte sequestration in pulmonary microvessels through upregulation of adhesion molecules. As reactive oxygen species released from leukocyte are supposed to cause an upregulation of adhesion molecules we conclude that PARS inhibition contributes to termination of this vicious cycle and inhibits the inflammatory process.

Abstract
In the present paper, we investigated the relationship between the growth inhibitory effects of recombinant interferon-alpha2b (rIFN-alpha2b) and poly (ADPR) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) activity in the human squamous KB cancer cell line. Growth inhibition of the KB cells mediated by 1000 IU/ml of rIFN-alpha2b was accompanied by a transient rise in PARP-1 specific activity 24 h after rIFN-alpha2b treatment, confirmed by both the increase of intracellular poly (ADP-ribose) content and the PARP-1 auto-modification level. At longer times of incubation, the onset of apoptosis accompanied KB cell growth inhibition, as demonstrated by both flow cytometry and western-blotting analysis showing an 89 kDa apoptotic fragment of PARP-1. Moreover, pretreatment of the cells with the PARP-1 inhibitor, 3-aminobenzamide (3-ABA), at non-cytotoxic concentrations (1 mM), reduced the cell-growth inhibition, cell-cycle perturbation and apoptosis caused by rIFN-alpha2b. Taken together, these results strongly suggest that PARP-1 may be directly involved in the effects of rIFN-alpha2b in the KB cancer cell line.

Abstract
We hypothesize that poly (ADP-ribosyl)ation, that is, poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP)-dependent transfer of ADP-ribose moieties from NAD to nuclear proteins, plays a role in diabetic nephropathy. We evaluated whether PARP activation is present and whether two unrelated PARP inhibitors, 3-aminobenzamide (ABA) and 1,5-isoquinolinediol (ISO), counteract overexpression of endothelin-1 (ET-1) and ET receptors in the renal cortex in short-term diabetes. The studies were performed in control rats and streptozotocin-diabetic rats treated with/without ABA or ISO (30 and 3 mg x kg(-1) x day(-1), intraperitoneally, for 2 weeks after 2 weeks of diabetes). Poly (ADP-ribose) immunoreactivity was increased in tubuli, but not glomeruli, of diabetic rats and this increase was corrected by ISO, whereas ABA had a weaker effect. ET-1 concentration (ELISA) was increased in diabetic rats, and this elevation was blunted by ISO. ET-1, ET(A), and ET(B) mRNA (ribonuclease protection assay), but not ET-3 mRNA (RT/PCR), abundance was increased in diabetic rats, and three variables were, at least, partially corrected by ISO. ABA produced a trend towards normalization of ET-1 concentration and ET-1, ET(A), and ET(B) mRNA abundance, but the differences with untreated diabetic group were not significant. Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation is involved in diabetes-induced renal overexpression of ET-1 and ET receptors. PARP inhibitors could provide a novel therapeutic approach for diabetic complications including nephropathy, and other diseases that involve the endothelin system.

Abstract
The chicken cardiac troponin T (cTnT) gene is representative of numerous cardiac and skeletal muscle-specific genes that contain muscle-CAT (MCAT) elements within their promoters. We examined the regulation of the chicken cTnT gene in vivo in zebrafish embryos, and in vitro in cardiomyocyte, myoblast, and fibroblast cultures. Defined regions of the cTnT promoter were linked to the green fluorescent protein (GFP) gene for in vivo analysis, and the luciferase gene for in vitro analysis. Injection of the cTnT promoter constructs into fertilized zebrafish eggs resulted in GFP expression in both heart and skeletal muscle cells reproducing the pattern of expression of the endogenous cTnT gene in the chicken embryo. Promoter deletion analysis revealed that the cis-regulatory regions responsible for cardiac and skeletal muscle-specific expression functioned in an equivalent manner in both in vitro and in vivo environments. In addition, we show that mutation of the poly-ADP ribose polymerase-I (PARP-I) binding site adjacent to the distal MCAT element in the chicken cTnT promoter produced a non-cell-specific promoter in vitro and in the zebrafish. Thus, the PARP-I transcriptional regulatory mechanism that governs muscle specificity of the chicken cTnT promoter is conserved across several chordate classes spanning at least 350 million years of evolution.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) is activated in response to DNA injury in eukaryotic cells and has been implicated in cell dysfunction in reperfusion injury. In this study we investigated the role of PARP-1 on apoptosis in early myocardial reperfusion injury. Mice genetically deficient of PARP-1 (PARP-1-/-) and wild-type littermates were subjected to myocardial ischemia and reperfusion. Myocardial injury was assessed by measuring the serum levels of creatine phosphokinase and oligonucleosomal DNA fragments in the infarcted area. Expression of the anti-apoptotic protein, Bcl-2, and the pro-apoptotic protein, Bax, was analyzed by Western blot. Activation of caspases, important executioners of apoptosis, and activation of the nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappa B) pathway were evaluated. Gene expression profiles for apoptotic regulators between PARP-1-/- and wild-type mice also were compared. Myocardial damage in PARP-1-/- mice was reduced significantly, as indicated by lower serum creatine phosphokinase levels and reduction of apoptosis, as compared with wild-type mice. Western blot analyses showed increased expression of Bcl-2, which was associated with reduction of caspase-1 and caspase-3 activation. This cardioprotection was associated with significant reduction of the activation of I kappa B kinase complex and NF-kappa B DNA binding. Microarray analysis demonstrated that the expression of 29 known genes of apoptotic regulators was significantly altered in PARP-1-/- mice compared with wild-type mice, whereas 6 known genes were similarly expressed in both genotypes. The data indicate that during reperfusion absence of PARP-1 leads to reduction of myocardial apoptosis, which is associated with reduced NF-kappa B activation and altered gene expression profiles.

Abstract
The lack of efficacy of anti-inflammatory drugs, anti-coagulants, anti-oxidants, etc. in critically ill patients has shifted interest towards developing alternative treatments. Since inhibitors of the nuclear enzyme poly-(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) were found to be beneficial in many pathophysiological conditions associated with oxidative stress and PARP-1 knock-out mice proved to be resistant to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced septic shock, PARP inhibitors are candidates for such a role. In this study, the mechanism of the protective effect of a potent PARP-1 inhibitor, PJ34 was studied in LPS-induced (20mg/kg, i.p.) septic shock in mice. We demonstrated a significant inflammatory response by magnetic resonance imaging in the dorsal subcutaneous region, in the abdominal regions around the kidneys and in the inter-intestinal cavities. We have found necrotic and apoptotic histological changes as well as obstructed blood vessels in the liver and small intestine. Additionally, we have detected elevated tumor necrosis factor-alpha levels in the serum and nuclear factor kappa B activation in liver of LPS-treated mice. Pre-treating the animals with PJ34 (10mg/kg, i.p.), before the LPS challenge, besides rescuing the animals from LPS-induced death, attenuated all these changes presumably by activating the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-Akt/protein kinase B cytoprotective pathway.

Abstract
Excessive release of proinflammatory products by activated glia causes neurotoxicity and participates in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disorders. Recently, poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) has been shown to play a key role in nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappaB)-driven expression of inflammatory mediators by glia during the neuroimmune response. Here we report the novel finding that the enzymatic activity of PARP-1 promotes, in an beta-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-dependent fashion, the DNA binding of NF-kappaB in microglia exposed to lipopolysaccharides, interferon-gamma or beta-amyloid 1-40. Consistently, we found that targeting NF-kappaB-dependent glial activation with pharmacological inhibitors of PARP-1 enzymatic activity reduces expression of inflammatory mediators such as inducible nitric oxide synthase, interleukin 1beta, tumor necrosis factor alpha and amyloid precursor protein, and reduces the neurotoxic potential of activated glia in vitro. Importantly, pharmacological inhibition of lipopolysaccharide-induced poly(ADP-ribose) formation in vivo suppresses neuroinflammation and related neural cell death. Our findings build on prior published reports in PARP-1 null mice and highlight the importance of PARP-1 enzymatic activity in transcriptional control during glial activation, identifying PARP-1 activity-dependent regulation of NF-kappaB as a novel pharmacological target for therapeutic intervention in the treatment of acute and chronic neurodegenerative disorders.

Abstract
We investigated the mechanism of augmentation of nitric oxide (NO) production in the murine macrophage cell line RAW264.7 after gamma-irradiation. The cells treated with interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) or lipopolysaccharide (LPS) showed enhanced NO production by gamma-irradiation in a dose-dependent manner, accompanying the induction of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) expression. Nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappaB) activation was induced 1 h after gamma-irradiation dose-dependently, which was detected by the degradation of I-kappaB. Inhibitors of I-kappaB degradation, MG132 and N(alpha)-p-tosyl-L-lysine chloromethyl ketone (TLCK), suppressed the further increase by gamma-irradiation in IFN-gamma-induced NO production, showing that gamma-irradiation induced NO production via NF-kappaB activation. Although NF-kappaB is known to be a redox-sensitive transcription factor, the antioxidant agents N-acetyl-cysteine (NAC) and 6-hydroxy-2,5,7,8-tetramethyl-chroman-2-carboxylic acid (trolox) showed no suppression and treatment with H(2)O(2) showed only slight enhancement of IFN-gamma-induced NO production. The DNA damaging agents camptothecin and etoposide enhanced IFN-gamma-induced NO production and showed I-kappaB degradation, indicating that the increase in NO production was due to direct DNA damage. Furthermore, 3-aminobenzamide (3AB) and benzamide, inhibitors of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) that are activated upon recognition of DNA strand breaks, suppressed the further increase by gamma-irradiation in IFN-gamma-induced NO production and the I-kappaB degradation by gamma-irradiation. We concluded that (1) the increase in NO production was due to direct DNA damage by gamma-irradiation, and that (2) PARP activation through DNA damage induced NF-kappaB activation, leading to iNOS expression and NO production.

Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP)-1 is activated in response to DNA injury in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells and has been implicated in cell dysfunction in inflammation. We investigated the role of PARP-1 on the AP-1 pathway, which is involved in the signal transduction of the inflammatory process. In murine wild-type fibroblasts, oxidative challenge by peroxynitrite and hydrogen peroxide or immunological challenge by IL-1 and 20% FCS induced phosphorylation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase-4, activation of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), and DNA binding of AP-1. In comparative experiments, peroxynitrite induced DNA binding of heat shock factor-1. Pretreatment of wild-type cells with 5-iodo-6-amino-1,2-benzopyrone, a PARP-1 inhibitor, inhibited JNK activation and DNA binding of AP-1. In parallel experiments in PARP-1-deficient fibroblasts, DNA binding of AP-1 was completely abolished. Activation of JNK was significantly elevated at basal condition, but it exhibited a lesser increase after oxidative or immunological challenge than in wild-type fibroblasts. Nuclear content of phosphorylated mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase-4 was observed in PARP-1-deficient cells after peroxynitrite challenge only. Western blotting analysis for AP-1 subunits indicated that c-Fos was similarly expressed in wild-type and PARP-1-deficient cells. Phosphorylated c-Jun was expressed after oxidative or immunological challenge, but not in basal condition, in wild-type cells; however, it was significantly elevated at basal condition and further enhanced after oxidative or immunological challenge in PARP-1-deficient cells. No DNA binding of heat shock factor-1 was observed in PARP-1-deficient cells. These data demonstrate that PARP-1 plays a pivotal role in the modulation of transcription.

Abstract
It is well established that cytokines can induce the production of chemokines, but the role of chemokines in the regulation of cytokine expression has not been fully investigated. Exposure of rat cardiac-derived endothelial cells (CDEC) to lipopolysaccharide-induced CXC chemokine (LIX), and to a lesser extent to KC and MIP-2, activated NF-kappaB and induced kappaB-driven promoter activity. LIX did not activate Oct-1. LIX-induced interleukin-1beta and tumor necrosis factor-alpha promoter activity, and up-regulated mRNA expression. Increased transcription and mRNA stability both contributed to cytokine expression. LIX-mediated cytokine gene transcription was inhibited by interleukin-10. Transient overexpression of kinase-deficient NF-kappaB-inducing kinase (NIK) and IkappaB kinase (IKK), and dominant negative IkappaB significantly inhibited LIX-mediated NF-kappaB activation in rat CDEC. Inhibition of G(i) protein-coupled signal transduction, poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, and the 26 S proteasome significantly inhibited LIX-mediated NF-kappaB activation and cytokine gene transcription. Blocking CXCR2 attenuated LIX-mediated kappaB activation and kappaB-driven promoter activity in rat CDEC that express both CXCR1 and -2, and abrogated its activation in mouse CDEC that express only CXCR2. These results indicate that LIX activates NF-kappaB and induces kappaB-responsive proinflammatory cytokines via either CXCR1 or CXCR2, and involved phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, NIK, IKK, and IkappaB. Thus, in addition to attracting and activating neutrophils, the ELR(+) CXC chemokines amplify the inflammatory cascade, stimulating local production of cytokines that have negative inotropic and proapoptotic effects.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO), generated by the inducible isoform of nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), has been described to have beneficial microbicidal, antiviral, antiparasital, immunomodulatory, and antitumoral effects. However, aberrant iNOS induction at the wrong place or at the wrong time has detrimental consequences and seems to be involved in the pathophysiology of several human diseases. iNOS is primarily regulated at the expression level by transcriptional and post-transcriptional mechanisms. iNOS expression can be induced in many cell types with suitable agents such as bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS), cytokines, and other compounds. Pathways resulting in the induction of iNOS expression may vary in different cells or different species. Activation of the transcription factors NF-kappaB and STAT-1alpha, and thereby activation of the iNOS promoter, seems to be an essential step for iNOS induction in most cells. However, at least in the human system, also post-transcriptional mechanism are critically involved in the regulation of iNOS expression. The induction of iNOS can be inhibited by a wide variety of immunomodulatory compounds acting at the transcriptional levels and/or post-transcriptionally.

Abstract
Poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose) polymerase (PARP) has recently been characterized as a key regulator of cell death-survival transcriptional programs associated with stress and inflammation. Possible participation of this enzyme in the response of tumors to photodynamic therapy (PDT) was investigated in this study. Immunohistochemical analysis of mouse FsaR tumors treated by PDT based on photosensitizers Photofrin or 5,10,15,20-tetra-(m-hydroxyphenyl)chlorine (mTHPC) revealed a strong positive staining for PARP product poly(ADP-ribose) at 30 min and 1 h after PDT, respectively, and even more intense positivity at 2 h after PDT with both photosensitizers. Flow cytometry-based examination showed the induction of poly-ADP-ribosylation in FsaR tumors at 30 min after PDT, with a trend for a further increase in the intensity by 2 h after PDT in both cancer cells and tumor-associated leukocytes. In FsaR cells treated in vitro by mTHPC-based PDT, flow cytometric analysis indicated that the activation of PARP concentrated in cells undergoing apoptosis and reached a maximum by 30 min after PDT. The administration of PARP inhibitors, 3-aminobenzamide or 1,5-isoquinolinediol, to FsaR tumor-bearing mice before PDT light treatment increased the resistance of these tumors to PDT. PARP appears to control the balance between apoptotic and necrotic cell death in PDT-treated tumors and regulate the progression of PDT-induced inflammatory or innate immune response.

Abstract
Constitutive activation of the transcription factor nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) plays a major role in inflammatory diseases as well as cancer by inducing the endogenous expression of many proinflammatory proteins such as chemokines, and facilitating escape from apoptosis. The constitutive expression of chemokines such as CXCL1 has been correlated with growth, angiogenesis, and metastasis of cancers such as melanoma. The transcription of CXCL1 is regulated through interactions of NF-κB with other transcriptional regulatory molecules such as poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) and cAMP response element binding protein (CREB)-binding protein (CBP). It has been proposed that these two proteins interact with NF-κB and other enhancers to form an enhanceosome at the promoter region of CXCL1 and modulate CXCL1 transcription. In addition to these positive cofactors, a negative regulator, CAAT displacement protein (CDP), may also be involved in the transcriptional regulation of CXCL1. It has been postulated that the elevated expression of CXCL1 in melanomas is due to altered interaction between these molecules. CDP interaction with the promoter down-regulates transcription, whereas PARP and/or CBP interactions enhance transcription. Thus, elucidation of the interplay between components of the enhanceosome of this gene is important in finding more efficient and new therapies for conditions such as cancer as well as acute and chronic inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
A single mouse click on the topic tumor necrosis factor (TNF) in PubMed reveals about 50,000 articles providing one or the other information about this pleiotropic cytokine or its relatives. This demonstrates the enormous scientific and clinical interest in elucidating the biology of a molecule (or rather a large family of molecules), which began now almost 30 years ago with the description of a cytokine able to exert antitumoral effects in mouse models. Although our understanding of the multiple functions of TNF in vivo and of the respective underlying mechanisms at a cellular and molecular level has made enormous progress since then, new aspects are steadily uncovered and it appears that still much needs to be learned before we can conclude that we have a full comprehension of TNF biology. This review shortly covers some general aspects of this fascinating molecule and then concentrates on the molecular mechanisms of TNF signal transduction. In particular, the multiple facets of crosstalk between the various signalling pathways engaged by TNF will be addressed.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen and nitrogen species are overproduced in the cardiovascular system during circulatory shock. Oxidant-induced cell injury involves the activation of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP). Using a dual approach of PARP-1 suppression, by genetic deletion or pharmacological inhibition with the new potent phenanthridinone PARP inhibitor PJ34 [the hydrochloride salt of N-(oxo-5,6-dihydro-phenanthridin-2-yl)-N,N-dimethylacetamide], we studied whether the impaired cardiac function in endotoxic shock is dependent upon the PARP pathway. Escherichia coli endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide, LPS) at 55 mg/kg, i.p., induced a severe depression of the systolic and diastolic contractile function, tachycardia, and a reduction in mean arterial blood pressure in both rats and mice. Treatment with PJ34 significantly improved cardiac function and increased the survival of rodents. In addition, LPS-induced depression of left ventricular performance was significantly less pronounced in PARP-1 knockout mice (PARP(-/-)) as compared with their wild-type littermates (PARP(+/+)). Thus, PARP activation in the cardiovascular system is an important contributory factor to the cardiac collapse and death associated with endotoxin shock.

Abstract
1. In the presence of genotoxic stress poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) leads to NAD(+) and ATP depletion, participating in the pathogenesis of several disorders including inflammation. Accordingly, chemical inhibitors of PARP-1 are efficacious anti-inflammatories, albeit the underlying molecular mechanisms are still under debate. 2. This study investigated the effect of the PARP-1 inhibitors 6(5H)-phenanthridinone and benzamide as well as that of benzoic acid, an inactive analogue of benzamide, on development of experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) in rats. Both 6(5H)-phenanthridinone and benzamide attenuated development of EAE, reducing clinical score, neuroimmune infiltration and expression of inflammatory mediators such as inducible nitric oxide synthase, interleukin-1beta and -2, cyclooxygenase-2, tumour necrosis factor-alpha and interferon-gamma in the spinal cord of myelin-immunized rats. Importantly, no evidence of NAD(+) and ATP depletion as well as poly(ADP-ribose) formation was detected in the spinal cord. 3. By contrast, a robust formation of poly(ADP-ribose) occurred in B- and T-cell areas in lymph nodes of myelin-immunized rats and was suppressed by the treatment with 6(5H)-phenanthridinone and benzamide. In cultures of activated rat lymphocytes, 6(5H)-phenanthridinone and benzamide reduced the DNA-binding activity of NF-kappaB and AP-1 and transcription of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-2, interferon-gamma and tumour necrosis factor-alpha. 4. Notably, benzoic acid did not reproduce the in vivo and in vitro effects of its parent compound. 5. These findings indicate that PARP-1 promotes transcriptional activation in lymphocytes and inhibitors of its enzymatic activity are useful for the treatment of autoimmune disorders of the central nervous system.

Abstract
Using an interaction blot approach to search in the human nuclear proteome, we identified eight novel proteins that bind the hyperphosphorylated C-terminal repeat domain (phosphoCTD) of RNA polymerase II. Unexpectedly, five of the new phosphoCTD-associating proteins (PCAPs) represent either enzymes that act on DNA and chromatin (topoisomerase I, DNA (cytosine-5) methyltransferase 1, poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1) or proteins known to bind DNA (heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein (hnRNP) U/SAF-A, hnRNP D). The other three PCAPs represent factors involved in pre-mRNA metabolism as anticipated (CA150, NSAP1/hnRNP Q, hnRNP R) (note that hnRNP U/SAF-A and hnRNP D are also implicated in pre-mRNA metabolism). Identifying as PCAPs proteins involved in diverse DNA transactions suggests that the range of phosphoCTD functions extends far beyond just transcription and RNA processing. In view of the activities possessed by the DNA-directed PCAPs, it is likely that the phosphoCTD plays important roles in genome integrity, epigenetic regulation, and potentially nuclear structure. We present a model in which the phosphoCTD association of the PCAPs poises them to act either on the nascent transcript or on the DNA/chromatin template. We propose that the phosphoCTD of elongating RNA polymerase II is a major organizer of nuclear functions.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1, EC ), a nuclear enzyme activated by DNA strand breaks, physiologically participates in DNA repair. Excessive activation of PARP-1 by cellular insults depletes its substrate beta-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide and ATP, leading to cell death. PARP-1-deficient (PARP-1-/-) mice are protected from several forms of inflammation. In the present study, we demonstrate in PARP-1-/- glial cells a loss of several stress-activated transcription factors as well as decreased expression of genes for cytokines and cellular adhesion molecules. We also show that augmented expression of some of these genes is independent of PARP-1 catalytic activity. These findings indicate that PARP-1 plays a pivotal role in the initial inflammatory response by modulating transcription of inflammation-linked genes.
