Abstract
p63 and the vitamin D receptor (VDR) play important roles in epidermal development and differentiation, but their roles and relationship in the response to ultraviolet (UV) radiation are less clear. Using TERT-immortalized human keratinocytes expressing shRNA targeting p63 in concert with exogenously applied siRNA targeting VDR, we assessed p63 and VDR's separate and combined effect on nucleotide excision repair (NER) of UV-induced 6-4 photoproducts (6-4PP). Knockdown of p63 reduced VDR and XPC expression relative to nontargeting controls, while knockdown of VDR had no effect on p63 and XPC protein expression, though alone it modestly reduced XPC mRNA. Upon UV irradiation through filters with 3 μm pores to create spatially discrete spots of DNA damage, keratinocytes depleted of p63 or VDR exhibited slower removal of 6-4PP than control cells over the first 30 min. Costaining of control cells with antibodies to XPC revealed that XPC accumulated at DNA damage foci, peaking within 15 min and gradually fading over 90 min as NER proceeded. In either p63- or VDR-depleted keratinocytes, XPC overaccumulated at spots of DNA damage so that 50% more XPC was retained at 15 min and 100% more XPC was retained at 30 min than in control cells, suggesting dissociation of XPC after binding was also delayed. Concurrent knockdown of VDR and p63 resulted in similar impairment of 6-4PP repair and XPC overaccumulation but even slower release of XPC from DNA damage sites such that 200% more XPC was retained relative to controls at 30 min post-UV. These results suggest that VDR accounts for some of p63's effects in delaying 6-4PP repair associated with overaccumulation and slower dissociation of XPC, though p63's regulation of basal XPC expression appears to be VDR-independent. The results are consistent with a model where XPC dissociation is an important step during NER and that failure to do so may inhibit subsequent repair steps. This work further links two important regulators of epidermal growth and differentiation to the DNA repair response to UV.

Abstract
By proteomic, metabolomic and transcriptomic approaches we shed light on the molecular mechanism by which human keratinocytes undergo to terminal differentiation upon in vitro calcium treatment. Proteomic analysis revealed a selective induction of the ribosomal proteins RSSA, an inhibitor of cell proliferation and inducer of differentiation, HSP 60, a protein folding chaperone and GRP78, an unfolding protein response signal. Additionally, we observed an induction of EF1D, a transcription factor for genes that contain heat-shock responsive elements. Conversely, RAD23, a protein involved in regulating ER-associated protein degradation was down-regulated. All these modifications indicated an ER stress response, which in turn activated the unfolded protein response signaling pathway through ATF4, as confirmed both by the modulation of amino acids metabolism genes, such as XBP1, PDI and GPR78, and by the metabolomic analysis. Finally, we detected a reduction of PDI protein, as confirmed by the increase of oxidized glutathione. Metabolome analysis indicated that glycolysis failed to fuel the Krebs cycle, which continued to decrease during differentiation, at glance with the PPP pathway, allowing NADH production and glutathione reduction. Since unfolded protein response is linked to keratinization, these results may be useful for studying pathological mechanisms as well as potential treatments for different pathological conditions. Abbreviation: UPR, unfolded protein response; HEK, human epidermal keratinocytes; HKGS, human keratinocytes growth factor.

Abstract
Squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) are associated with ultraviolet radiation and multiple genetic changes, but the mechanisms leading to genetic instability are unclear. SCC cell lines were compared to normal keratinocytes for sensitivity to ultraviolet radiation, DNA repair kinetics and DNA repair protein expression. Relative to normal keratinocytes, four SCC cell lines were all variably sensitive to ultraviolet radiation and, except for the SCC25 cell line, were deficient in global repair of cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers, although not 6-4 photoproducts. Impaired DNA repair of cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers was associated with reduced mRNA expression from XPC but not DDB2 genes which each encode key DNA damage recognition proteins. However, levels of XPC or DDB2 proteins or both were variably reduced in repair-deficient SCC cell lines. p53 levels did not correlate with DNA repair activity or with XPC and DDB2 levels, but p63 levels were deficient in cell lines with reduced global repair. Repair-proficient SCC25 cells depleted of p63 lost XPC expression, early global DNA repair activity and UV resistance. These results demonstrate that some SCC cell lines are deficient in global nucleotide excision repair and support a role for p63 as a regulator of nucleotide excision repair in SCCs.

Abstract
The pathways by which Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCV) infection contributes to the formation of Merkel cell carcinomas are important for understanding the pathogenesis of these cancers. We hypothesized that MCV T antigen suppresses normal responses to ultraviolet radiation (UVR)-induced DNA damage. An MCV-infected cell line (MKL-1) exhibited UVR hypersensitivity, impaired repair of DNA lesions and cell cycle arrest after UVR, as well as reduced levels of the DNA damage recognition protein, XPC. When ectopically expressed in uninfected UISO cells, mutant but not wild-type T antigen resulted in loss of repair of UVR-induced cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers and reductions in XPC, p53 and p21 levels, whereas both wild-type and mutant T antigen inhibited cell cycle arrest after UVR. Similarly, only mutant T antigen in normal fibroblasts inhibited DNA repair and XPC expression, while both mutant and wild-type T antigens produced cell cycle dysregulation. Wild-type T antigen expression produced large T, 57 kT and small T antigens while mutant T antigen was only detectable as a truncated large T antigen protein. Expression of wild-type large T antigen but not small T antigen inhibited the G1 checkpoint in UISO cells, but neither wild-type large T nor small T antigens affected DNA repair, suggesting that large T antigen generates cell cycle defects, and when mutated may also impair DNA repair. These results indicate that T antigen expression by MCV can inhibit key responses to UVR-induced DNA damage and suggest that progressive MCV-mediated abrogation of genomic stability may be involved in Merkel cell carcinogenesis.

Abstract
DNA photolesions induced by UV, cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer (CPD) and (6-4) photoproduct (6-4PP), are repaired by nucleotide excision repair (NER) in human cells. Various immunoassays using monoclonal antibodies specific for the photolesions have been developed and widely used for the analysis of cellular NER activity. In this study, we have newly developed a microplate-formatted cell-based immunoassay, based on indirect immunofluorescence staining with lesion-specific antibodies combined with an infrared imaging system. Using this assay, we show the repair kinetics of CPD and 6-4PP in various fibroblasts from newborn and adult donors with no age-related difference. Furthermore, epidermal keratinocytes and melanocytes exhibit comparable NER activity, and calcium ion-induced differentiation of keratinocytes has no significant impacts on their NER activity. We also evaluated the effects of a proteasome inhibitor, MG132, and a histone deacetylase inhibitor, sodium butyrate, on NER efficiency using this assay. All these results suggest that the new assay is highly useful for the rapid and quantitative analysis of NER activity in various primary cells with limited growth activity and is applicable to a screening system for drugs affecting NER efficiency.

Abstract
Protein-trafficking pathways are targeted here in human melanoma cells using methods independent of oncogene mutational status, and the ability to up-regulate and down-regulate tumor treatment sensitivity is demonstrated. Sensitivity of melanoma cells to cis-diaminedichloroplatinum II (cDDP, cis-platin), carboplatin, dacarbazine, or temozolomide together with velaparib, an inhibitor of poly (ADP ribose) polymerase 1, is increased by up to 10-fold by targeting genes that regulate both protein trafficking and the formation of melanosomes, intracellular organelles unique to melanocytes and melanoma cells. Melanoma cells depleted of either of the protein-trafficking regulators vacuolar protein sorting 33A protein (VPS33A) or cappuccino protein (CNO) have increased nuclear localization of cDDP, increased nuclear DNA damage by platination, and increased apoptosis, resulting in increased treatment sensitivity. Depleted cells also exhibit a decreased proportion of intracellular, mature melanosomes compared with undepleted cells. Modulation of protein trafficking via cell-surface signaling by binding the melanocortin 1 receptor with the antagonist agouti-signaling protein decreased the proportion of mature melanosomes formed and increased cDDP sensitivity, whereas receptor binding with the agonist melanocyte-stimulating hormone resulted in an increased proportion of mature melanosomes formed and in decreased sensitivity (i.e., increased resistance) to cDDP. Mutation of the protein-trafficking gene Hps6, known to impair the formation of mature melanosomes, also increased cDDP sensitivity. Together, these results indicate that targeting protein-trafficking molecules markedly increases melanoma treatment sensitivity and influences the degree of melanosomes available for sequestration of therapeutic agents.

Abstract
Epidermal keratinocytes are critical targets for UV-induced genotoxicity as their transformation by sunlight overexposure can lead to skin cancer such as basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). Therefore, assessment of photoprotection should involve early markers associated with DNA photodamage. Here, the same normal human keratinocytes either in monoculture (KC) or in full thickness reconstructed skin (RS) were compared with respect to their response to simulated solar UV (SSUV) exposure. Irradiation conditions (spectral power distribution and doses) were designed to mimic environmental zenithal UV from sunlight. At doses where survival was higher than 80%, comet assay showed more single strand breaks (SSB) and cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPD) in keratinocytes in RS than in KC one hour post-exposure. The transcription factor p53 was activated in both models. While in KC p53 accumulation displayed a linear dose-dependency up to 24 h post-exposure, in RS it followed a bell-shaped profile and reverted to its basal rate. QRT-PCR demonstrated that among genes controlled by p53, P21 and MDM2 were clearly induced by SSUV in KC, whereas GADD45 expression was strongly and almost exclusively up-regulated in RS. Nrf2-dependent antioxidant genes (Ferritin light chain, NQO1) were only induced in RS, yet at low doses for NQO1. In vitro models such as KC or RS allowing the development of quantitative methodologies should be used as surrogates for in vivo tests assessing photogenotoxicity.

Abstract
Although skin is usually exposed during human exposures to ionizing radiation, there have been no thorough examinations of the transcriptional response of skin fibroblasts and keratinocytes to radiation. The transcriptional response of quiescent primary fibroblasts and keratinocytes exposed to from 10 cGy to 5 Gy and collected 4 h after treatment was examined. RNA was isolated and examined by microarray analysis for changes in the levels of gene expression. Exposure to ionizing radiation altered the expression of 279 genes across both cell types. Changes in RNA expression could be arranged into three main categories: (1) changes in keratinocytes but not in fibroblasts, (2) changes in fibroblasts but not in keratinocytes, and (3) changes in both. All of these changes were primarily of p53 target genes. Similar radiation-induced changes were induced in immortalized fibroblasts or keratinocytes. In separate experiments, protein was collected and analyzed by Western blotting for expression of proteins observed in microarray experiments to be overexpressed at the mRNA level. Both Q-PCR and Western blot analysis experiments validated these transcription changes. Our results are consistent with changes in the expression of p53 target genes as indicating the magnitude of cell responses to ionizing radiation.

Abstract
Cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) and pyrimidine (6-4) pyrimidone photoproducts (6-4PPs) are the two main classes of mutagenic DNA damages induced by UVB radiation. Numerous studies have been devoted so far to their formation and repair in human cells and skin. However, the biochemical methods used often lack the specificity that would allow the individual study of each of the four CPDs and 6-4PPs produced at TT, TC, CT and CC dinucleotides. In the present work, we applied an HPLC-mass spectrometry assay to study the formation and repair of CPDs and 6-4PPs photoproducts in primary cultures of human keratinocytes and fibroblasts as well as in whole human skin. We first observed that the yield of dimeric lesions was slightly higher in fibroblasts than in keratinocytes. In contrast, the rate of global repair was higher in the last cell type. Moreover, removal of DNA photoproducts in skin biopsies was found to be slower than in both cultured skin cells. In agreement with previous works, the repair of 6-4PPs was found to be more efficient than that of CPDs in the three types of samples, with no observed difference between the removal of the TT and TC derivatives. In contrast, a significant influence of the nature of the two modified pyrimidines was observed on the repair rate of CPDs. The decreasing order of removal efficiency was the following: C<>T>C<>C>T<>C>T<>T. These data, together with the known intrinsic mutational properties of the lesions, would support the reported UV mutation spectra. A noticeable exception concerns CC dinucleotides that are mutational hotspots with an UV-specific CC to TT tandem mutation, although related bipyrimidine photoproducts are produced in low yields and efficiently repaired.

Abstract
DNA interstrand crosslinks are processed by multiple mechanisms whose relationships to each other are unclear. Xeroderma pigmentosum-variant (XP-V) cells lacking DNA polymerase eta are sensitive to psoralen photoadducts created under conditions favoring crosslink formation, suggesting a role for translesion synthesis in crosslink repair. Because crosslinks can lead to double-strand breaks, we monitored phosphorylated H2AX (gamma-H2AX), which is typically generated near double-strand breaks but also in response to single-stranded DNA, following psoralen photoadduct formation in XP-V fibroblasts to assess whether polymerase eta is involved in processing crosslinks. In contrast to conditions favoring monoadducts, conditions favoring psoralen crosslinks induced gamma-H2AX levels in both XP-V and nucleotide excision repair-deficient XP-A cells relative to control repair-proficient cells; ectopic expression of polymerase eta in XP-V cells normalized the gamma-H2AX response. In response to psoralen crosslinking, gamma-H2AX as well as 53BP1 formed coincident foci that were more numerous and intense in XP-V and XP-A cells than in controls. Psoralen photoadducts induced gamma-H2AX throughout the cell cycle in XP-V cells. These results indicate that polymerase eta is important in responding to psoralen crosslinks, and are consistent with a model in which nucleotide excision repair and polymerase eta are involved in processing crosslinks and avoiding gamma-H2AX associated with double-strand breaks and single-stranded DNA in human cells.

Abstract
While many p53-deficient cell types are impaired in global genomic nucleotide excision repair of cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs), human epidermal keratinocytes expressing human papillomavirus type 16 E6 and E7 are p53 deficient and yet maintain repair of CPD. We hypothesized that the p53 homolog, p63, may participate in governing global repair instead of p53 in keratinocytes. Following ultraviolet radiation (UVR) of E6/E7 keratinocytes, depletion of p63 but not of p73 impaired global genomic repair of CPD relative to control cells. In all cases, repair of pyrimidine(6-4)pyrimidone photoproducts, the other major UVR-induced DNA lesions, was unaffected. In E6/E7 keratinocytes treated with p63 small interfering RNA, reduced global repair of CPD was associated not with reduced levels of messenger RNA-encoding DNA damage recognition proteins but rather with decreased levels of DDB2 and XPC proteins, suggesting that p63 posttranscriptionally regulates levels of these proteins. These results indicate that global repair may be regulated at multiple levels and suggest a novel role for p63 in modulating repair of DNA damage in human keratinocytes. The results may provide insight into mechanisms of genomic stability in epithelia infected with oncogenic human papilloma viruses and may further explain the lack of increased skin cancer incidence in Li-Fraumeni syndrome.

Abstract
Ultraviolet (UV) exposure induces an up-regulation of melanocortin-1 receptor (MC1R) expression in human skin and the alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH) may reduce UVB-induced DNA damage in normal human melanocytes. Using high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry, we investigated the formation and repair of DNA lesions in UVB-irradiated HaCaT cells stably transfected with the wild type MC1R gene (HaCaT-MC1R). Similar levels of 8 bipyrimidine photoproducts including cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) (T<>T, T<>C, C<>T), (6-4) photoproducts ((6-4)PPs) (TT-(6-4)PPs, TC-(6-4)PPs) and their Dewar valence isomers together with 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodGuo) were found to be generated in both non-transfected and HaCaT-MC1R cells after UVB exposure. Time-course studies of DNA photoproduct yields indicated that the DNA repair ability depended upon radiation doses. It was shown that (6-4)PPs were removed from the DNA of UVB-irradiated cells much more efficiently than CPDs. The repair efficiency of 8-oxodGuo, CPDs and (6-4)PPs was relatively similar in both cell lines and was not modified by stimulation with alpha-MSH before UVB-exposure. In conclusion, cell surface-enforced expression of MC1Rs on HaCaT keratinocytes and alpha-MSH stimulation do not affect the formation of UVB-induced DNA photoproducts and their subsequent repair.

Abstract
In previous studies it was shown that nucleotide excision repair (NER) is strongly attenuated at the global genome level in terminally differentiated neuron-like cells. NER was measured in several human acute myeloid leukemia cell lines, before and after differentiation into macrophage-like cells. Repair of cisplatin intrastrand GTG crosslinks in differentiated cells was strongly attenuated. There were also some variations between repair levels in naïve cells, but these were not correlated with the degree of differentiation. By contrast, the proficient repair of UV-induced (6-4)pyrimidine-pyrimidone photoproducts [(6-4)PPs] was not affected by differentiation. Although cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) were poorly repaired at the global genome level in all cell lines, differentiated or not, they were very efficiently removed from the transcribed strand of an active gene, indicating that transcription-coupled repair (TCR) is proficient in each cell line. CPDs were also removed from the non-transcribed strand of an active gene better than at the overall global genome level. This relatively efficient repair of the non-transcribed strand of active genes, when compared with global genomic repair (GGR), has been described previously in neuron-like cells and termed differentiation-associated repair (DAR). Here we show that it also can occur in actively growing cells that display poor GGR.

Abstract
The p53 tumor suppressor protein is important for many cellular responses to DNA damage in mammalian cells, but its role in regulating DNA repair in human keratinocytes is undefined. We compared the nucleotide excision repair (NER) response of human fibroblasts and keratinocytes deficient in p53. Fibroblasts expressing human papillomavirus 16 E6 oncoprotein had impaired repair of UV radiation-induced cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers in association with reduced levels of p53 and XPC, which is involved in DNA damage recognition. In contrast, keratinocytes expressing E6 alone or concurrently with the E7 oncoprotein, while possessing reduced levels of p53 but normal levels of XPC, continued to repair pyrimidine dimers as efficiently as control cells with normal p53 levels. Despite preservation of DNA repair, E6 and E6/E7 keratinocytes were hypersensitive to UV radiation. E6 fibroblasts exhibited markedly reduced basal and induced levels of mRNA encoding DDB2, another protein implicated in early events in global NER. In contrast, E6 or E6/E7 keratinocytes possessed basal DDB2 mRNA levels that were not significantly altered relative to control cells, although little induction occurred following UV radiation. Intact global NER was also confirmed in SCC25 cells possessing inactivating mutations in p53 as well as in cells treated with pifithrin-alpha, a chemical inhibitor of p53 that decreased sensitivity of cells to UV radiation. Collectively, these results indicate that human keratinocytes, unlike fibroblasts, do not require p53 to maintain basal global NER activity, but p53 may still be important in mediating inducible responses following DNA damage.
