Abstract
An imbalance between pro-oxidative and antioxidative cellular mechanisms is oxidative stress (OxS) which may be systemic or organ-specific. Although OxS is a consequence of normal body and organ physiology, severely impaired oxidative homeostasis results in DNA hydroxylation, protein denaturation, lipid peroxidation, and apoptosis, ultimately compromising cells' function and viability. The thyroid gland is an organ that exhibits both oxidative and antioxidative processes. In terms of OxS severity, the thyroid gland's response could be physiological (i.e. hormone production and secretion) or pathological (i.e. development of diseases, such as goitre, thyroid cancer, or thyroiditis). Protective nutritional antioxidants may benefit defensive antioxidative systems in resolving pro-oxidative dominance and redox imbalance, preventing or delaying chronic thyroid diseases. This review provides information on nutritional antioxidants and their protective roles against impaired redox homeostasis in various thyroid pathologies. We also review novel findings related to the connection between the thyroid gland and gut microbiome and analyze the effects of probiotics with antioxidant properties on thyroid diseases.

A New Indicator to Differentiate Thyroid Follicular Inclusions in Cervical Lymph Nodes from Patients with Thyroid Cancer. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 24:ijms24010490. [PMID: 36613940 PMCID: PMC9820803 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24010490] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2022] [Revised: 12/05/2022] [Accepted: 12/20/2022] [Indexed: 12/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Nodal metastasis is crucial for determining the stage of well-differentiated thyroid cancer (WTC) in patients older than 55. Well-formed thyroid follicular inclusions (TFIs) are occasionally encountered in the cervical lymph nodes (LNs) of patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), and it is difficult to determine whether they are true nodal metastases or ectopic thyroid tissues (ETT). This study aimed to elucidate the impact of the expression of the DNA damage response molecule TP53-binding protein 1 (53BP1) using immunofluorescence (IF) as a biomarker to differentiate TFIs in cervical LN by comparing the mutation analyses of primary thyroid cancers. The data demonstrated the necessity for the differential diagnosis of true metastases from ETT among TFIs in cervical LNs. PTC-like nuclear features using hematoxylin-eosin staining combined with immunohistochemistry for conventional biomarkers of PTC, including BRAFV600E protein, were most helpful in identifying metastatic follicular-patterned carcinomas. In conclusion, IF analysis of 53BP1 expression could be an excellent ancillary technique to distinguish metastatic carcinoma or ETT from TFIs in LNs, particularly in cases other than BRAFV600E-mutated PTC.

Molecular Pathological Characteristics of Thyroid Follicular-Patterned Tumors Showing Nodule-in-Nodule Appearance with Poorly Differentiated Component. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14153577. [PMID: 35892838 PMCID: PMC9331311 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14153577] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2022] [Revised: 07/18/2022] [Accepted: 07/21/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Thyroid follicular-patterned tumors (TFTs) showing nodule-in-nodule (NN) appearance with poorly differentiated component (PDc) but neither invasion nor metastasis are diagnosed as benign nodules. Although PDc exhibits histologically aggressive features relative to the outer nodule (Out-N), its pathological significance remains unclear. TP53 binding protein-1 (53BP1) is a DNA damage response (DDR) molecule that rapidly localizes at DNA double-strand breaks. Using dual-color immunofluorescence with Ki-67, the profile of 53BP1 expression is shown to be significantly altered during diverse tumorigenesis. In this study, we aimed to elucidate the malignant potential of PDc at the molecular level. We analyzed the profile of 53BP1 expression and NRAS codon 61 and TERT-promoter (TERT-p) mutations in 16 cases of TFTs showing NN with PDc compared to 30 adenomatous goiters, 31 follicular adenomas, 15 minimally invasive follicular carcinomas (FCs), and 11 widely invasive FC cases. Our results revealed that the expression level of abnormal type 53BP1 and incidence of NRAS and TERT-p mutations in PDc were comparable to FCs, suggesting a malignant potential. Because co-expression of 53BP1 and Ki-67 can be an indicator of altered DDR, the development of PDc in NN may be associated with DDR impairments after harboring NRAS and TERT-p mutations.

The Cross-Talk between Polyphenols and the Target Enzymes Related to Oxidative Stress-Induced Thyroid Cancer. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2022; 2022:2724324.

Abstract
The most serious hallmark step of carcinogenesis is oxidative stress, which induces cell DNA damage. Although in normal conditions ROS are important second messengers, in pathological conditions such as cancer, due to imbalanced redox enzyme expression, oxidative stress can occur. Recent studies with firmly established evidence suggest an interdependence between oxidative stress and thyroid cancer based on thyroid hormone synthesis. Indeed, a reduced antioxidant defense system might play a part in several steps of progression in thyroid cancer. Based on studies that have been conducted previously, future drug designs for targeting enzymatic ROS sources, as a single agent or in combination, have to be tested. Polyphenols represent the potential for modulating biological events in thyroid cancer, including antioxidative activity. Targeting enzymatic ROS sources, without affecting the physiological redox state, might be an important purpose. As regards the underlying chemopreventive mechanisms of natural compounds that have been discussed in other cancer models, the confirmation of the influence of polyphenols on thyroid cancer is inconclusive and rarely available. Therefore, there is a need for further scientific investigations into the features of the antioxidative effects of polyphenols on thyroid cancer. The current review illustrates the association between some polyphenols and the key enzymes that take place in oxidation reactions in developing thyroid cancer cells. This review gives the main points of the enzymatic ROS sources act and redox signaling in normal physiological or pathological contexts and supplies a survey of the currently available modulators of TPO, LOX, NOX, DUOX, Nrf2, and LPO derived from polyphenols.

Genomic Instability-Related LncRNA Signature Predicts the Prognosis and Highlights LINC01614 Is a Tumor Microenvironment-Related Oncogenic lncRNA of Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma. Front Oncol 2021; 11:737867.

Abstract
Background Genomic instability (GI) is among the top ten characteristics of malignancy. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are promising cancer biomarkers that are reportedly involved in GI. So far, the clinical value of GI-related lncRNAs (GIlncs) in papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) has not been clarified. Methods Integrative analysis of lncRNA expression and somatic mutation profiles was performed to identify GIlncs. Analysis of differentially expressed lncRNAs in the group with high- and low- cumulative number of somatic mutations revealed significant GIlncs in PTC. Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression analyses were performed to identify hub-GIlncs. Results A computational model based on four lncRNAs (FOXD2-AS1, LINC01614, AC073257.2, and AC005082.1) was identified as a quantitative index using an in-silicon discovery cohort. GILS score was significantly associated with poor prognosis, as validated in the TCGA dataset and further tested in our local RNA-Seq cohort. Moreover, a combination of clinical characteristics and the composite GILS-clinical prognostic nomogram demonstrates satisfactory discrimination and calibration. Furthermore, the GILS score and FOXD2-AS1, LINC01614, AC073257.2, and AC005082.1 were also associated with driver mutations and multiple clinical-pathological variables, respectively. Moreover, RNA-Seq confirmed the expression patterns of FOXD2-AS1, LINC01614, AC073257.2, and AC005082.1 in PTC and normal thyroid tissues. Biological experiments demonstrated that downregulated or overexpressed LINC01614 affect PTC cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in vitro. Activation of the stromal and immune cell infiltration was also observed in the high LINC01614 group in the PTC microenvironment. Conclusion In summary, we identified a signature for clinical outcome prediction in PTC comprising four lncRNAs associated with GI. A better understanding of the GI providing an alternative evaluation of the progression risk of PTC. Our study also demonstrated LINC01614 as a novel oncogenic lncRNA and verified its phenotype in PTC.

The Influence of Oxidative Stress on Thyroid Diseases. Antioxidants (Basel) 2021; 10:antiox10091442.

Abstract
Thyroid diseases, including neoplasms, autoimmune diseases and thyroid dysfunctions, are becoming a serious social problem with rapidly increasing prevalence. The latter is increasingly linked to oxidative stress. There are many methods for determining the biomarkers of oxidative stress, making it possible to evaluate the oxidative profile in patients with thyroid diseases compared to the healthy population. This opens up a new perspective for investigating the role of elevated parameters of oxidative stress and damage in people with thyroid diseases, especially of neoplastic nature. An imbalance between oxidants and antioxidants is observed at different stages and in different types of thyroid diseases. The organ, which is part of the endocrine system, uses free radicals (reactive oxygen species, ROS) to produce hormones. Thyroid cells release enzymes that catalyse ROS generation; therefore, a key role is played by the internal defence system and non-enzymatic antioxidants that counteract excess ROS not utilised to produce thyroid hormones, acting as a buffer to neutralise free radicals and ensure whole-body homeostasis. An excess of free radicals causes structural cell damage, undermining genomic stability. Looking at the negative effects of ROS accumulation, oxidative stress appears to be implicated in both the initiation and progression of carcinogenesis. The aim of this review is to investigate the oxidation background of thyroid diseases and to summarise the links between redox imbalance and thyroid dysfunction and disease.

Abstract
We have previously reported that the expression of p53-binding protein 1 (53BP1) in nuclear foci (NF), a marker reflecting DNA damage response (DDR), detected using immunofluorescence (IF) is useful to estimate the malignant potency of diverse cancers. In this prospective study, we clarified the impact of 53BP1 expression via IF as a biomarker to differentiate thyroid follicular tumors (FTs) with liquid-based cytology (LBC). A total of 183 consecutively obtained-LBC samples, which were preoperatively suspected as FTs, were analyzed. Before histological diagnosis, the type of 53BP1 immunoreactivity in LBC was classified as follows: low DDR type, one or two NF; high DDR type, three or more NF; large foci type, larger than 1.0 μm; abnormal type, intense nuclear staining. Among the 183 cases, 136 cases were postoperatively diagnosed as FTs, including adenomatous goiter (AG, n = 30), follicular adenoma (FA, n = 60), FT-uncertain malignant potency (FT-UMP, n = 18), and follicular carcinoma (FC, n = 28), and 47 cases were diagnosed as tumors other than FTs or technically inadequate materials. Total 136 FT cases were collated with the type of 53BP1 immunoreactivity in LBC. The mean incidence expressing abnormal 53BP1 expression was significantly higher in FC than FA (9.5% vs 2.6%, P-value < 0.001). When adopting 4.3% as a cut-off value to distinguish FC from FA, the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value were 89.3, 83.3, 71.4, and 94.3%, respectively. Therefore, IF analysis of 53BP1 expression can be employed as a novel technique to diagnose FTs and to distinguish between different types of FTs using LBC.

Abstract
The digestive tract is a common site of extranodal malignant lymphomas (MLs) and benign lymphoid lesions (BLs). TP53-binding protein 1 (53BP1) expression has been widely investigated in class switch recombination but rarely in human lymphoid tissues with respect to tumorigenesis. We previously reported that immunofluorescence (IF) analysis of 53BP1 nuclear foci (NF), reflecting DNA double strand breaks, is useful for estimating genomic instability in different tumor types. In this study, we evaluated the potential of IF-based analysis of 53BP1 expression in differentiating MLs from BLs. We examined 231 biopsied tissue samples of primary MLs and BLs in the digestive tract. The 53BP1 immunoreactivity pattern was determined by multicolor IF. Compared to BLs, MLs showed a high frequency of abnormal 53BP1 expression (p < 0.0001). Statistically, abnormal 53BP1 expression is an effective test for distinguishing follicular lymphomas from BLs (specificity 98.6%, sensitivity 86.8%) and for distinguishing small B-cell lymphomas from BLs (specificity 98.3%, sensitivity 77.6%). Furthermore, a high frequency of abnormal 53BP1 expression was associated with "high-risk" MALT lymphomas, which exhibited t(11;18)(q21;21) (p = 0.0145). Collectively, these results suggest that IF-based analysis of 53BP1 expression in biopsy samples is a promising technique for diagnosing MLs in the digestive system.

Abstract
As p53-binding protein 1 (53BP1) localizes to the sites of DNA double-strand
breaks and rapidly forms nuclear foci (NF), and its presence may be an indicator
of endogenous genomic instability (GIN). We previously showed that 53BP1 NF in
cervical cells increase with neoplastic progression, indicating the significance
of 53BP1 expression for the estimation of malignant potential during cervical
carcinogenesis. This study aimed to further elucidate the impact of 53BP1
expression as a biomarker for cervical squamous intraepithelial lesion (SIL). A
total of 81 tissue samples, including 17 of normal cervical epithelium, 22 of
cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) 1, 21 of CIN2, and 21 of CIN3, from
patients positive for high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) were used for
double-label immunofluorescence of 53BP1 and Ki-67/p16INK4a
expression and HR-HPV in situ hybridization. We analyzed associations between
53BP1 expression type with parameters such as CIN grade, HR-HPV infection
status, p16INK4a expression, and CIN prognosis. Expression type of
53BP1 was significantly associated with histological grade of CIN and HR-HPV in
situ hybridization signal pattern (P < .0001). There was a
significant correlation between 53BP1 and p16INK4a expression levels
(r = .73, P < .0001). However, there
was no association between 53BP1 expression type and CIN prognosis. We propose
that 53BP1 expression type is a valuable biomarker for SIL, which can help
estimate the grade and GIN of cervical lesions reflecting replication stress
caused by the integration of HR-HPV to the host genome.

Abstract
AIMS Genomic instability has been indicated during the dedifferentiation process from leiomyoma (LM) to leiomyosarcoma (LMS). Previously, we have described that nuclear expression pattern of DNA damage response protein p53-binding protein 1 (53BP1), detected by immunofluorescence, reflects the magnitude of genomic instability during malignancy. Here, we present a case of LMS arising from LM with molecular analysis of 53BP1, which showed transitional magnitude of DNA damage response within a tumor. METHODS AND RESULTS A fifty-year-old female with abdominal mass underwent hysterectomy. Histologically, the tumor consisted of LMS with highly atypical multinucleated giant cells as well as an LM component with transitional atypical spindle cells in the border area. LMS showed diffuse nuclear staining of 53BP1 expression, which has been previously described as high DNA damage response pattern. In contrast, the LM component lacked 53BP1 immunoreactivity and focal expression was observed in transitional lesion. Furthermore, double-labelled immunofluorescence revealed co-localization of 53BP1 with p53 and Ki-67 in the LMS component, which indicated abnormal DNA damage response in proliferative state. CONCLUSIONS This study revealed that diffuse-type 53BP1 expression may be beneficial to estimate genomic instability during dedifferentiation from LM to DLMS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Abnormal DNA damage response (DDR) leads to genomic instability and carcinogenesis. P53-binding protein 1 (53 BP1), a DDR molecule, is known to accumulate at the sites of DNA double-strand breaks. The aim of this study was to analyze the expression pattern of 53 BP1-nuclear foci (NF) in esophageal neoplasms in order to visualize the state of DDR in esophageal carcinogenesis and to clarify its significance in the molecular pathology of the disease. METHODS A total of 61 lesions from 22 surgically resected samples of esophageal cancer, including histologically normal squamous epithelium, low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia (LG-IN), high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia (HG-IN), carcinoma in situ (CIS), and invasive squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), were included in the study. 53 BP1 and Ki-67 expression were analyzed by double-labeled immunofluorescence. RESULTS The number of discrete 53 BP1-NF increased as the tumor progressed from normal epithelium through LG-IN, HG-IN, CIS, and SCC. 53 BP1-NF larger than 1 μm in diameter (large foci), indicating intensive DDR, also showed a stepwise increase during the progression of carcinogenesis. Of note, large foci of 53 BP1 were found in significantly higher numbers in HG-IN than in LG-IN. Furthermore, localization of 53 BP1-NF in Ki-67-positive cells, indicating the abnormal timing of DDR, also increased with malignancy progression. CONCLUSIONS 53 BP1-NF accumulation increases during cancer progression from LG-IN to HG-IN to CIS to SCC. Detection of 53 BP1-NF by immunofluorescence, especially large foci, is a feasible method of estimating DNA instability and the malignant potential of esophageal intraepithelial neoplasia.

Detection of DNA damage response in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease via p53-binding protein 1 nuclear expression. Mod Pathol 2019; 32:997-1007. [PMID: 30809000 DOI: 10.1038/s41379-019-0218-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/03/2018] [Revised: 01/14/2019] [Accepted: 01/15/2019] [Indexed: 01/18/2023]
Abstract
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is a major liver disease that leads to cirrhosis and/or hepatocellular carcinoma in a subset of patients. The mechanism underlying disease progression is largely unknown. p53-binding protein 1 (53BP1) is a DNA damage response protein that rapidly localizes at the site of DNA double-strand breaks. In this study, we investigated nuclear 53BP1-positive foci formation as an indicator of DNA double-strand breaks in human nonalcoholic fatty liver disease liver tissues by immunofluorescence microscopy. A total of 52 liver tissue samples, including 43 nonalcoholic fatty liver disease samples and 9 controls, were studied. Our results show that the number of abnormal 53BP1-positive foci in hepatocytes (defined as three or more discrete nuclear foci and/or large foci greater than 1 μM) was significantly increased in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease patients compared to that in controls, both in nonalcoholic fatty liver (p < 0.01) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis patients (p < 0.01). The number of large foci was significantly increased in the nonalcoholic steatohepatitis cases compared to that in the nonalcoholic fatty liver cases (p < 0.05) and correlated with increased stage of fibrosis. The number of large-foci-expressing hepatocytes was positively correlated with increased age (p < 0.01) and negatively correlated with serum platelet count (p < 0.05). In addition, we performed an in vitro assay using rat hepatocytes treated with the saturated free fatty acid palmitate. Treatment appeared to augment the number of abnormal foci, indicating an induction of double-strand breaks in the hepatocytes through free fatty acid treatment in a caspase-dependent manner. This study demonstrates that 53BP1-positive nuclear foci formation is associated with disease progression in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease patients. Analysis of 53BP1 expression might be a feasible technique to estimate genomic instability in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.

Abstract
Background: The preoperative diagnosis of thyroid follicular carcinomas (FCs) by fine-needle aspiration cytology is almost impossible. It was previously demonstrated that p53-binding protein 1 (53BP1) expression, based on immunofluorescence (IF), can serve as a valuable biomarker to estimate the malignant potential of various cancers. 53BP1 belongs to a class of DNA damage response molecules that rapidly localize to the site of DNA double-strand breaks, forming nuclear foci (NF). This study aimed to elucidate the utility of 53BP1 NF expression as a biomarker to differentiate follicular tumors (FTs). Methods: Associations between 53BP1 expression based on IF and histological types of FTs were analyzed using 27 follicular adenomas (FAs), 28 minimally invasive FCs, and 14 widely invasive FCs. Furthermore, the study clarified the relationship between 53BP1 NF and copy number aberrations (CNAs) based on array comparative genomic hybridization, a hallmark of genomic instability (GIN). Results: This study demonstrates differences in 53BP1 NF expression between FA and FC. The incidence of 53BP1 at NF significantly increased with FT progression in the following order: normal follicle < FA < minimally invasive FCs < widely invasive FCs. In contrast, no significant differences were observed in CNAs among the FT samples. Furthermore, there was no significant correlation between CNAs and 53BP1 at NF in FTs. Thus, based on a comparison of these two indicators of GIN, 53BP1 NF (by IF) was better able to estimate the malignancy of FTs compared to CNA (by array comparative genomic hybridization). Interestingly, IF revealed a heterogenous distribution of 53BP1 NF, which occurred more frequently in the invasive or subcapsular area than in the center of the tumor, suggesting intratumoral heterogeneity of GIN in FTs. Conclusions: It is proposed that IF analysis of 53BP1 expression could be a novel diagnostic method to estimate the malignant potential of FTs. Because 53BP1 NF reflect DNA double-strand breaks, it is hypothesized that the incidence of 53BP1 at NF can represent the level of GIN in tumor cells. IF analysis of 53BP1 expression will not only be an auxiliary histologic technique to diagnose FTs accurately, but also a novel technique for preoperative diagnosis using fine-needle aspiration cytology.

The Emerging Role of Estrogens in Thyroid Redox Homeostasis and Carcinogenesis. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2019; 2019:2514312.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are the most critical class of free radicals or reactive metabolites produced by all living organisms. ROS regulate several cellular functions through redox-dependent mechanisms, including proliferation, differentiation, hormone synthesis, and stress defense response. However, ROS overproduction or lack of appropriate detoxification is harmful to cells and can be linked to the development of several diseases, such as cancer. Oxidative damage in cellular components, especially in DNA, can promote the malignant transformation that has already been described in thyroid tissue. In thyrocyte physiology, NADPH oxidase enzymes produce large amounts of ROS that are necessary for hormone biosynthesis and might contribute to the high spontaneous mutation rate found in this tissue. Thyroid cancer is the most common endocrine malignancy, and its incidence is significantly higher in women than in men. Several lines of evidence suggest the sex hormone estrogen as a risk factor for thyroid cancer development. Estrogen in turn, besides being a potent growth factor for both normal and tumor thyroid cells, regulates different mechanisms of ROS generation. Our group demonstrated that the thyroid gland of adult female rats exhibits higher hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) production and lower enzymatic antioxidant defense in comparison with male glands. In this review, we discuss the possible involvement of thyroid redox homeostasis and estrogen in the development of thyroid carcinogenesis.

Expression pattern of p53-binding protein 1 as a new molecular indicator of genomic instability in bladder urothelial carcinoma. Sci Rep 2018; 8:15477.

Abstract
Copy number alterations and loss of heterozygosity are associated with increasing tumor grade and bladder cancer stage. Our previous study suggested that co-expression of Ki-67 and p53-binding protein 1 (53BP1) could provide an indicator of an abnormal DNA damage response (DDR) pathway. The present study investigated 53BP1 expression as a novel molecular marker in urothelial carcinoma (UC) using bladder tissues with in total of 40 cases including a normal urothelium, urothelial papilloma, low-grade UC, or high-grade UC. Double-label immunofluorescence was used to analyze 53BP1 and Ki-67 expression. This was compared with the level of chromosomal instability and with the expression of other DDR molecules catalytic subunit. This study identified clear differences in the 53BP1 expression patterns in urothelial carcinogenesis, and their close association with genomic instability. 53BP1 abnormal immunoreactivity, particularly with co-localization of Ki-67, was restricted to malignant tissues. Our analyses indicated that a cut-off of >4% of nuclei with 53BP1 abnormal expression plus Ki-67 immunoreactivity distinguished high-grade UC from low-grade UC with 80.0% sensitivity and 100% specificity. We therefore propose that double immunofluorescent analysis of 53BP1 and Ki-67 expression could provide a useful tool to estimate the chromosomal instability and malignant potential of urothelial tumors.

Abstract
DNA damage response, a key factor involved in maintaining genome integrity and stability, consists of several kinase-dependent signaling pathways, which sense and transduce DNA damage signal. The severity of damage appears to determine DNA damage responses, which can include cell cycle arrest, damage repair and apoptosis. A number of recent studies have demonstrated that defection in signaling through this network is thought to be an underlying mechanism behind the development and progression of various types of human malignancies, including colorectal cancer. In this review, colorectal cancer and its molecular pathology as well as DNA damage response is briefly introduced. Finally, the involvement of key components of this network in the initiation/progression, prognosis, response to treatment and development of drug resistance is comprehensively discussed.

Abstract
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is a crucial substrate for thyroid peroxidase, a key enzyme involved in thyroid hormone synthesis. However, as a potent oxidant, H2O2 might also be responsible for the high level of oxidative DNA damage observed in thyroid tissues, such as DNA base lesions and strand breakages, which promote chromosomal instability and contribute to the development of tumours. Although the role of H2O2 in thyroid hormone synthesis is well established, its precise mechanisms of action in pathological processes are still under investigation. The NADPH oxidase/dual oxidase family are the only oxidoreductases whose primary function is to produce reactive oxygen species. As such, the function and expression of these enzymes are tightly regulated. Thyrocytes express dual oxidase 2, which produces most of the H2O2 for thyroid hormone synthesis. Thyrocytes also express dual oxidase 1 and NADPH oxidase 4, but the roles of these enzymes are still unknown. Here, we review the structure, expression, localization and function of these enzymes. We focus on their potential role in thyroid cancer, which is characterized by increased expression of these enzymes.

Abstract
Oncocytic follicular adenomas (FAs) of the thyroid are neoplasms of follicular cell origin that are predominantly composed of large polygonal cells with eosinophilic and granular cytoplasm. However, the pathological characteristics of these tumors are largely unexplored. Both the initiation and progression of cancer can be caused by an accumulation of genetic mutations that can induce genomic instability. Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate the extent of genomic instability in oncocytic FA. As the presence of p53-binding protein 1 (53BP1) in nuclear foci has been found to reflect DNA double-strand breaks that are triggered by various stresses, the immunofluorescence expression pattern of 53BP-1 was assessed in oncocytic and conventional FA. The association with the degree of DNA copy number aberration (CNA) was also evaluated using array-based comparative genomic hybridization. Data from this study demonstrated increased 53BP1 expression (i.e., "unstable" expression) in nuclear foci of oncocytic FA and a higher incidence of CNAs compared with conventional FA. There was also a particular focus on the amplification of chromosome 1p36 in oncocytic FA, which includes the locus for Tumor protein 73, a member of the p53 family implicated as a factor in the development of malignancies. Further evaluations revealed that unstable 53BP1 expression had a significant positive correlation with the levels of expression of Tumor protein 73. These data suggest a higher level of genomic instability in oncocytic FA compared with conventional FA, and a possible relationship between oncocytic FA and abnormal amplification of Tumor protein 73.

Abstract
Exposure to ionizing radiation during childhood is a well-known risk factor for thyroid cancer. Our study evaluated the effect of age on the radiosensitivity of rat thyroid glands. Four-week-old (4W), 7 -week-old (7W), and 8-month-old (8M) male Wistar rats were exposed to 8 Gy of whole-body X-ray irradiation. Thyroids were removed 3-72 h after irradiation, and non-irradiated thyroids served as controls. Ki67-positivity and p53 binding protein 1 (53BP1) focus formation (a DNA damage response) were evaluated via immunohistochemistry. Amounts of proteins involved in DNA damage response (p53, p53 phosphorylated at serine 15, p21), apoptosis (cleaved caspase-3), and autophagy (LC3, p62) were determined via western blotting. mRNA levels of 84 key autophagy-related genes were quantified using polymerase chain reaction arrays. Ki67-positive cells in 4W (with high proliferative activity) and 7W thyroids significantly decreased in number post-irradiation. The number of 53BP1 foci and amount of p53 phosphorylated at serine 15 increased 3 h after irradiation, regardless of age. No increase in apoptosis or in the levels of p53, p21 or cleaved caspase-3 was detected for any ages. Levels of LC3-II and p62 increased in irradiated 4W but not 8M thyroids, whereas expression of several autophagy-related genes was higher in 4W than 8M irradiated thyroids. Irradiation increased the expression of genes encoding pro-apoptotic proteins in both 4W and 8M thyroids. In summary, no apoptosis or p53 accumulation was noted, despite the expression of some pro-apoptotic genes in immature and adult thyroids. Irradiation induced autophagy in immature, but not in adult, rat thyroids.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The BRAF(V600E) mutation is the most common genetic alteration in papillary thyroid carcinomas (PTCs). Transgenic mice overexpressing BRAF(V600E) in their thyroids under control of the thyroglobulin promoter (Tg-BRAF2 mice) developed invasive PTCs with high penetrance. However, these mice showed elevated thyrotropin (TSH) levels, which also stimulate the proliferation of thyrocytes and tumorigenesis. The purpose of the present study was to investigate how TSH signaling cooperates with BRAF(V600E) in the process of thyroid carcinogenesis. METHODS We crossed Tg-BRAF2 mice with TSH receptor knockout (TshR(-/-)) mice. Four genetically distinct mice groups-Braf(wt)/TshR(+/-) (group 1), Braf(wt)/TshR(-/-) (group 2), Tg-BRAF2/TshR(+/-) (group 3), and Tg-BRAF2/TshR(-/-) (group 4)--were sacrificed at 12 and 24 weeks of age. We performed histopathological analysis. Genomic instability was evaluated by immunofluorescence for p53-binding protein 1 (53BP1) and γH2AX. Invasiveness and genomic instability were also evaluated using thyroid PCCL3 cells expressing BRAF(V600E). RESULTS Groups 3 and 4 developed distinct neoplasias comparable to human PTCs. Group 3 developed typically larger, more aggressive, invasive tumors compared to group 4. The frequency of 53BP1 and γH2AX foci-indicators of genomic instability--in group 3 was higher than that in group 4. TSH also enhanced invasiveness and genomic instability in PCCL3 cells with BRAF(V600E) expression. CONCLUSIONS These data demonstrate that the TSH signaling confers more aggressive features in BRAF(V600E)-induced thyroid tumors in mice. This might be due, in part, to accelerated genomic instability.

Abstract
AIMS A defective DNA damage response can result in genomic instability (GIN) and lead to transformation to cancer. As p53-binding protein 1 (53BP1) localizes at the sites of DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) and rapidly forms nuclear foci (NF), the presence of 53BP1 NF can be considered to be an indicator of endogenous DSBs reflecting GIN. Our aim was to analyse the presence of DSBs by immunofluorescence for 53BP1 expression in a series of cervical lesions, to evaluate the significance of GIN during carcinogenesis. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 80 archival cervical tissue samples, including 11 normal, 16 cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN)1, 15 CIN2, 24 CIN3 and 14 squamous cell carcinoma samples, were analysed for 53BP1 NF, human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, and p16(INK4a) overexpression. The number of 53BP1 NF in cervical cells appeared to increase with progression during carcinogenesis. The distribution of 53BP1 NF was similar to that of the punctate HPV signals as determined by in-situ hybridization and also to p16(INK4a) overexpression in CIN, suggesting an association with viral infection and replication stress. CONCLUSIONS Immunofluorescence analysis of 53BP1 expression can be a useful tool with which to estimate the level of GIN. During cervical carcinogenesis, GIN may allow further accumulation of genomic alterations, causing progression to invasive cancer.

Abstract
The ATM-dependent DNA damage checkpoint plays a pivotal role in cellular response to ionizing radiation. Although amplification of the DNA damage signal through multifactorial protein complex formation of DNA damage checkpoint factors is crucial for proper DNA damage response in two-dimensionally cultured cells, the dynamics of the DNA damage response in three-dimensional tissues or organs remained to be determined. Here we used a model of reconstituted human skin and investigated the spatiotemporal dynamics of focus formation of DNA damage checkpoint factors after X irradiation. We found that DNA damage-induced foci were differentially formed in different layers. All cells in basal layers and approximately 40% of cells in spinous layers displayed foci. In basal cells, the foci showed linear dose relationships, and the number of foci decreased with increasing time after irradiation. We found that the initial foci grew within a few hours after irradiation, and persistent signals developed large foci. Colocalization of phosphorylated ATM, phosphorylated histone H2AX, MDC1 and 53BP1 foci was detected, and all of them showed simultaneous focus growth, indicating amplification of DNA damage signals. These results confirmed a dynamic DNA damage response in three-dimensional tissue, which provides a practical model for studying DNA damage response in vivo.

Role of Ku80-dependent end-joining in delayed genomic instability in mammalian cells surviving ionizing radiation. Mutat Res 2010; 683:29-34. [PMID: 19822159 DOI: 10.1016/j.mrfmmm.2009.10.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2009] [Revised: 09/17/2009] [Accepted: 10/02/2009] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
Ionizing radiation induces delayed destabilization of the genome in the progenies of surviving cells. This phenomenon, which is called radiation-induced genomic instability, is manifested by delayed induction of radiation effects, such as cell death, chromosome aberration, and mutation in the progeny of cells surviving radiation exposure. Previously, there was a report showing that delayed cell death was absent in Ku80-deficient Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, however, the mechanism of their defect has not been determined. We found that delayed induction of DNA double strand breaks and chromosomal breaks were intact in Ku80-deficient cells surviving X-irradiation, whereas there was no sign for the production of chromosome bridges between divided daughter cells. Moreover, delayed induction of dicentric chromosomes was significantly compromised in those cells compared to the wild-type CHO cells. Reintroduction of the human Ku86 gene complimented the defective DNA repair and recovered delayed induction of dicentric chromosomes and delayed cell death, indicating that defective Ku80-dependent dicentric induction was the cause of the absence of delayed cell death. Since DNA-PKcs-defective cells showed delayed phenotypes, Ku80-dependent illegitimate rejoining is involved in delayed impairment of the integrity of the genome in radiation-survived cells.

Abstract
Epidermal cells are the first cells to be exposed to environmental genotoxic agents such as ultraviolet and ionizing radiations, which induce DNA double strand breaks (DSB) and activate DNA damage response (DDR) to maintain genomic integrity. Defective DDR can result in genomic instability (GIN) which is considered to be a central aspect of any carcinogenic process. P53-binding protein 1 (53BP1) belongs to a family of evolutionarily conserved DDR proteins. Because 53BP1 molecules localize at the sites of DSB and rapidly form nuclear foci, the presence of 53BP1 nuclear foci can be considered as a cytological marker for endogenous DSB reflecting GIN. The levels of GIN were analyzed by immunofluorescence studies of 53BP1 in 56 skin tumors that included 20 seborrheic keratosis, eight actinic keratosis, nine Bowen's disease, nine squamous cell carcinoma, and 10 basal cell carcinoma. This study demonstrated a number of nuclear 53BP1 foci in human skin tumorigenesis, suggesting a constitutive activation of DDR in skin cancer cells. Because actinic keratosis showed a high DDR type of 53BP1 immunoreactivity, GIN seems to be induced at the precancerous stage. Furthermore, invasive cancers exhibited a high level of intense, abnormal 53BP1 nuclear staining with nuclear accumulation of p53, suggesting a disruption of DDR leading to a high level of GIN in cancer cells. The results of this study suggest that GIN has a crucial role in the progression of skin carcinogenesis. The detection of 53BP1 expression by immunofluorescence can be a useful histological marker to estimate the malignant potential of human skin tumors.
