Abstract
Recently, we reported that a combination of a natural, bioactive compound Resveratrol (RES) and a PARP inhibitor Olaparib (OLA) deregulated the homologous recombination (HR) pathway, and enhanced apoptosis in BRCA1-wild-type, HR-proficient breast cancer cells. Upon DNA damage, chromatin relaxation takes place, which allows the DNA repair proteins to access the DNA lesion. But whether chromatin remodeling has any role in RES + OLA-mediated HR inhibition is not known. By using in vitro and ex vivo model systems of breast cancer, we have investigated whether RES + OLA inhibits chromatin relaxation and thereby blocks the HR pathway. It was found that RES + OLA inhibited PARP1 activity, terminated PARP1-BRCA1 interaction, and deregulated the HR pathway only in the chromatin fraction of MCF-7 cells. DR-GFP reporter plasmid-based HR assay demonstrated marked reduction in HR efficiency in I-SceI endonuclease-transfected cells treated with OLA. RES + OLA efficiently trapped PARP1 at the DNA damage site in the chromatin of MCF-7 cells. Unaltered expressions of HR proteins were found in the chromatin of PARP1-silenced MCF-7 cells, which confirmed that RES + OLA-mediated DNA damage response was PARP1-dependent. Histone Acetyltransferase (HAT) activity and histone H4 acetylation assays showed reduction in HAT activity and H4 acetylation in RES + OLA-treated chromatin fraction of cells. Western blot analysis showed that the HAT enzyme TIP60, P400 and acetylated H4 were downregulated after RES + OLA exposure. In the co-immunoprecipitation assay, it was observed that RES + OLA caused abolition of PARP1-TIP60-BRCA1 interaction, which suggested the PARP1-dependent TIP60-BRCA1 association. Unaltered expressions of PAR, BRCA1, P400, and acetylated H4 in the chromatin of TIP60-silenced MCF-7 cells further confirmed the role of TIP60 in PARP1-mediated HR activation in the chromatin. Similar results were obtained in ex vivo patient-derived primary breast cancer cells. Thus, the present study revealed that RES + OLA treatment inhibited PARP1 activity in the chromatin, and blocked TIP60-mediated chromatin relaxation, which, in turn, affected PARP1-dependent TIP60-BRCA1 association, resulting in deregulation of HR pathway in breast cancer cells.

Int J Biochem Cell Biol 2023; 161:106443.

Abstract
Poly (ADPRibose) Polymerase inhibitor (PARPi) are clinically approved for the treatment of BRCA-mutated hereditary breast and ovarian cancers with homologous recombination (HR) deficiency, based on synthetic lethality concept. However, ∼90% of breast cancers are BRCA-wild type; they repair PARPi mediated damage through HR, leading to intrinsic de novo resistance. Hence, there is an unmet need of exploring novel targets in HR-proficient aggressive breast cancers for PARPi treatment. RECQL5 physically interacts and disrupts RAD51 from pre-synaptic filaments, aiding HR resolution, replication fork protection and preventing illegitimate recombination. In the current investigation, we show that targeted inhibition of HR by stabilization of RAD51-RECQL5 complex by a pharmacological inhibitor of RECQL5 (4a; 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivative) in the presence of PARPi [talazoparib (BMN673)] leads to abolition of functional HR with uncontrolled activation of NHEJ repair. This was assessed by GFP based NHEJ reporter assay, KU80 recruitment and in vitro NHEJ based plasmid ligation assay. Concomitant treatment with talazoparib and 4a generates copious amounts of replication stress, prolonged cell cycle arrest, extensive double strand breaks (DSBs) and mitotic catastrophe, leading to sensitization of HR-proficient breast cancers. Suppression of NHEJ activity abolishes 4a-mediated sensitization of breast cancers to PARPi treatment. Imperatively, 4a was ineffective against normal mammary epithelial cells, which expresses low RECQL5 vis-à-vis breast cancer cells. Moreover, functional inhibition of RECQL5 suppresses metastatic potential of breast cancer cells in response to PARPi. Together, we identified RECQL5 as a novel pharmacological target for expanding PARPi based treatment horizon for HR-proficient cancers.

Abstract
In this article, we report a very rare case of secondary angiosarcoma in a young woman with no prior history of breast cancer who had bilateral prophylactic mastectomies with autologous reconstruction due to a strong family history of breast cancer and BRCA1 gene variant of uncertain significance. The surgery was complicated by recurrent fat necrosis requiring several excisions and additional reconstruction followed by the development of localized lymphedema and subsequent angiosarcoma in the reconstructed breast 10 years later. The angiosarcoma was high grade with prominent epithelioid features associated with abundant tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes. Amplification of C-MYC locus 8q21.24 was demonstrated by fluorescence in situ hybridization study. We postulate that chronic trauma from several surgeries including tissue hypoxia and impaired lymphatic drainage may have provided a milieu for angiogenesis and mutagenic transformation. Amplification of C-MYC locus 8q21.24 was most likely a strong oncogenic driver of angiosarcoma. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of its kind in the literature.
