Abstract
BACKGROUND Oxidative damage to the cell, including the formation of 8-oxoG, has been regarded as a significant factor in carcinogenesis and aging. An inbred prematurely aging rat strain (OXYS) is characterized by high sensitivity to oxidative stress, lipid peroxidation, protein oxidation, DNA rearrangements, and pathological conditions paralleling several human degenerative diseases including learning and memory deterioration. METHODS We have used monoclonal antibodies against a common pre-mutagenic base lesion 8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG) and 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase (OGG1) in combination with indirect immunofluorescence microscopy and image analysis to follow the relative amounts and distribution of 8-oxoG and OGG1 in various cells of different brain regions from OXYS and control Wistar rats. RESULTS It was shown that 8-oxoG increased with age in mature neurons, nestin- and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP)-positive cells of hippocampus and frontal cortex in both strains of rats, with OXYS rats always displaying statistically significantly higher levels of oxidative DNA damage than Wistar rats. The relative content of 8-oxoG and OGG1 in nestin- and GFAP-positive cells was higher than in mature neurons in both Wistar and OXYS rats. However, there was no significant interstrain difference in the content of OGG1 for all types of cells and brain regions analyzed, and no difference in the relative content of 8-oxoG between different brain regions. CONCLUSIONS Oxidation of guanine may play an important role in the development of age-associated decrease in memory and learning capability of OXYS rats. GENERAL SIGNIFICANCE The findings are important for validation of the OXYS rat strain as a model of mammalian aging.

The capacity to remove 8-oxoG is enhanced in newborn neural stem/progenitor cells and decreases in juvenile mice and upon cell differentiation. DNA Repair (Amst) 2007; 6:723-32. [PMID: 17236821 DOI: 10.1016/j.dnarep.2006.12.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/20/2006] [Revised: 12/07/2006] [Accepted: 12/08/2006] [Indexed: 11/19/2022]
Abstract
In mammalian cells, 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase-1 (OGG1) is the main DNA glycosylase for the removal of 8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG). 8-oxoG, one of the most common products of the oxidative attack of DNA, is a premutagenic lesion that accumulates spontaneously at high frequencies in the genome. In this study, Ogg1 mRNA expression was detected throughout embryonic development in mice. In situ hybridization showed that in the neonatal brain, Ogg1 expression was detected in a distinct layer of cells in the medial wall of the lateral ventricle, which may correspond to ependymal cells, and in some scattered cells in the subventricular zone (SVZ), a brain region rich in neural stem/progenitor cells. Using neurospheres as a model for the study of neural stem/progenitor cells, we found that both the expression and activity of Ogg1 were high in neurospheres derived from newborn mice and decreased in adults and upon induction of cell differentiation. Furthermore, Ogg1 was shown to be the major DNA glycosylase initiating 8-oxoG repair in neurospheres. Our results strongly indicate that enhanced DNA repair capacity is an important mechanism by which neural stem/progenitor cells maintain their genome.

Abstract
Neuronal DNA repair remains one of the most exciting areas for investigation, particularly as a means to compare the DNA repair response in mitotic (cancer) vs. post-mitotic (neuronal) cells. In addition, the role of DNA repair in neuronal cell survival and response to aging and environmental insults is of particular interest. DNA damage caused by reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as generated by mitochondrial respiration includes altered bases, abasic sites, and single- and double-strand breaks which can be prevented by the DNA base excision repair (BER) pathway. Oxidative stress accumulates in the DNA of the human brain over time especially in the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and is proposed to play a critical role in aging and in the pathogenesis of several neurological disorders including Parkinson's disease, ALS, and Alzheimer's diseases. Because DNA damage accumulates in the mtDNA more than nuclear DNA, there is increased interest in DNA repair pathways and the consequence of DNA damage in the mitochondria of neurons. The type of damage that is most likely to occur in neuronal cells is oxidative DNA damage which is primarily removed by the BER pathway. Following the notion that the bulk of neuronal DNA damage is acquired by oxidative DNA damage and ROS, the BER pathway is a likely area of focus for neuronal studies of DNA repair. BER variations in brain aging and pathology in various brain regions and tissues are presented. Therefore, the BER pathway is discussed in greater detail in this review than other repair pathways. Other repair pathways including direct reversal, nucleotide excision repair (NER), mismatch repair (MMR), homologous recombination and non-homologous end joining are also discussed. Finally, there is a growing interest in the role that DNA repair pathways play in the clinical arena as they relate to the neurotoxicity and neuropathy associated with cancer treatments. Among the numerous side effects of cancer treatments, major clinical effects include neurocognitive dysfunction and peripheral neuropathy. These symptoms occur frequently and have not been effectively studied at the cellular or molecular level. Studies of DNA repair may help our understanding of how those cells that are not dividing could succumb to neurotoxicity with the clinical manifestations discussed in the following article.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species generated during normal cellular metabolism react with lipids, proteins, and nucleic acid. Evidence indicates that the accumulation of oxidative damage results in cellular dysfunction or deterioration. In particular, oxidative DNA damage can induce mutagenic replicative outcomes, leading to altered cellular function and/or cellular transformation. Additionally, oxidative DNA modifications can block essential biological processes, namely replication and transcription, triggering cell death responses. The major pathway responsible for removing oxidative DNA damage and restoring the integrity of the genome is base excision repair (BER). We highlight herein what is known about BER protein function(s) in the CNS, which in cooperation with the peripheral nervous system operates to control physical responses, motor coordination, and brain operation. Moreover, we describe evidence indicating that defective BER processing can promote post-mitotic (i.e. non-dividing) neuronal cell death and neurodegenerative disease. The focus of the review is on the core mammalian BER participants, i.e. the DNA glycosylases, AP endonuclease 1, DNA polymerase beta, X-ray cross-complementing 1, and the DNA ligases.

Neuroscience 2005; 136:135-46. [PMID: 16182450 DOI: 10.1016/j.neuroscience.2005.06.080] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/13/2004] [Revised: 06/17/2005] [Accepted: 06/22/2005] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase and Kin17 are proteins widely distributed and phylogenetically conserved in the CNS. 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase is a DNA repair enzyme that excises 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine present in DNA damaged by oxidative stress. Kin17 protein is involved in DNA repair and illegitimate recombination in eukaryotic cells. The present study evaluates the effect of ovarian hormones on the expression of both proteins in the magnocellular paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus and the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis in female and male rat brains. In the paraventricular nucleus, ovariectomy induced a significant decrease in the number of 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase-positive nuclei as well as in their relative fluorescent intensity as compared with ovariectomized-estradiol treated and proestrous groups. Confocal microscopy observation demonstrated that oxoguanine DNA glycosylase protein is located in the Hoechst-dyed nuclei and cytoplasm in male and ovariectomized rats. Surprisingly, following estradiol administration to ovariectomized and proestrous rats, the 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase immunolabeling was observed in the nucleolus, the cytoplasm and the dendrites of cells, while Kin17 protein was always localized in the cell nuclei. In the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis, the number of 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase-positive nuclei during proestrous was significantly lower than the number obtained in males and ovariectomized rats and similar to the number of ovariectomized-estradiol-treated groups. In contrast to these observations, no significant differences were observed in the expression of kin17 protein. Our results suggest that estrogens differentially regulate the expression of 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase, but not that of Kin17 protein, in specific regions of the rat brain and that estradiol can translocate the 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase protein within nuclei and to other subcellular compartments.

Abstract
Neurodegeneration can occur as a result of endogenous oxidative stress. Primary cerebellar granule cells were used in this study to determine if mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) repair deficiencies correlate with oxidative stress-induced apoptosis in neuronal cells. Granule cells exhibited a significantly higher intracellular oxidative state compared with primary astrocytes as well as increases in reductants, such as glutathione, and redox sensitive signaling molecules, such as AP endonuclease/redox effector factor-1. Cerebellar granule cultures also exhibited an increased susceptibility to exogenous oxidative stress. Menadione (50 μM) produced twice as many lesions in granule cell mtDNA compared with astrocytes, and granule cell mtDNA repair was significantly less efficient. A decreased capacity to repair oxidative mtDNA damage correlates strongly with mitochondrial initiated apoptosis in these neuronal cultures. Interestingly, the mitochondrial activities of initiators for base excision repair (BER), the bifunctional glycosylase/AP lyases as well as AP endonuclease, were significantly higher in cerebellar granule cells compared with astrocytes. The increased mitochondrial AP endonuclease activity in combination with decreased polymerase γ activity may cause an imbalance in oxidative BER leading to an increased production and persistence of mtDNA damage in neurons when treated with menadione. This study provides evidence linking neuronal mtDNA repair capacity with oxidative stress-related neurodegeneration.

Abstract
Genotoxic agents deform DNA structure thus eliciting a complex genetic response allowing recovery and cell survival. The Kin17 gene is up-regulated during this response. This gene encodes a conserved nuclear protein that shares a DNA-binding domain with the bacterial RecA protein. The KIN17 protein binds DNA and displays enhanced expression levels in proliferating cultured cells, suggesting a role in nuclear metabolism. We investigated this by studying the expression profile of KIN17 protein during mouse spermatogenesis. As expected, the expression level of Kin17 is higher in proliferating than in differentiated cells. KIN17 is selectively extracted from this tissue by detergents and a fraction was tightly associated with the nuclear matrix. Germinal cells ubiquitously express Kin17 and the protein is located mainly in the nucleus except in elongated spermatids where cytoplasmic staining is also observed. Sertoli and germ cells that are no longer mitotically active express KIN17, suggesting a general role in all testicular cell types. In adult testis a significant proportion of KIN17 co-purifies with polyadenylated RNA. KIN17 directly binds RNA, preferentially poly(G) and poly(U) homopolymers. These results together with the identification of KIN17 as a component of the human spliceosome indicate that this protein may participate in RNA processing.

Abstract
AIM: To study the expression of DNA repair enzyme hOGG1 mRNA and protein in nomal liver cell, hepatoma cell lines and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) tissues, and to investigate their function in the progress of HCC.
METHODS: Expression of hOGG1 in normal liver cell L-02, hepatoma cell lines HepG2, SMMC7721 and HCC tissues (26 cases) as well as surrouding tissues of HCC (21 cases) were detected by semi-quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction. hOGG1 protein was detected in corresponding HT tissues (17 cases HT) and their surrouding liver tissues (15 cases HST) by immunohistochemistry.
RESULTS: The expression level of hOGG1 mRNA in nomal liver cell line was lower than that in two hepatoma cell lines (0.270±0.014 vs 0.662±0.011, 0.624±0.020, P < 0.05). The expression of hOGG1 mRNA in HepG2 was similar to that in SMMC7721. The expression of hOGG1 mRNA in HT was lower than that in HST (P < 0.05). hOGG1 protein was 87.2% (41 of 47) positive in HT and HST and was mainly distributed in liver cells. The protein level of hOGG1 in HCC tissues was correspondingly lower than in their surrouding tissues (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION: Overexpression of hOGG1 in hepatoma cell lines and the surrouding liver tissuses of HCC may be one of the key events which promote the malignant growth. These results suggest a role for hOGG1 expression in the course of the multistage process of carcinogenesis in hepatocellular carcinoma.

Abstract
As one part of a distinguished scientific career, Dr. Bryn Bridges focused his attention on the issue of DNA damage and repair in stationary phase bacteria. His work in this area led to his interest in DNA repair and mutagenesis in another non-dividing cell population, the neurons in the mammalian nervous system. He has specifically taken an interest in the magnocellular neurons of the central nervous system, and the possibility that somatic mutations may be occurring in these neurons. As part of this special issue dedicated to Bryn Bridges upon his retirement, I will discuss the various DNA repair pathways known to be active in the nervous system. The importance of DNA repair to the nervous system is most graphically illustrated by the neurological abnormalities observed in patients with hereditary diseases associated with defects in DNA repair. I will consider the mechanisms underlying the neurological abnormalities observed in patients with four of these diseases: xeroderma pigmentosum (XP), Cockayne's syndrome (CS), ataxia telangectasia (AT) and AT-like disorder (ATLD). I will also propose a mechanism for one of the observations indicating that somatic mutation can occur in the magnocellular neurons of the aging rat brain. Finally, as a parallel to Bridges inquiry into how much DNA synthesis is going on in stationary phase bacteria, I will address the question of how much DNA synthesis in going on in neurons, and the implications of the answer to this question for recent studies of neurogenesis in adult mammals.

Abstract
The human DNA-binding (HSA)kin17 protein cross-reacts with antibodies raised against the stress-activated Escherichia coli RecA protein. We show here that (HSA)kin17 protein is directly associated with chromosomal DNA as judged by cross-linking experiments on living cells. We detected increased amounts of DNA-bound (HSA)kin17 protein 24 h after gamma irradiation, with 2.6-fold more (HSA)kin17 molecules after 6 Gy of irradiation (46,000-117,000 molecules). At this time we observed that highly proliferating RKO cells displayed the concentration and co-localization of (HSA)kin17 and replication protein A in nucleoplasmic foci. Our results suggest that 24 h post-irradiation (HSA)kin17 protein may localize at the sites of unrepaired DNA damages. RKO clones expressing an (HSA)KIN17 antisense transcript (RASK.5 and RASK.13 cells) revealed that reduced (HSA)kin17 protein levels are correlated with a decrease in clonogenic cell growth and cell proliferation, as well as an accumulation of cells in early and mid-S phase. Taken together our observations support the idea that (HSA)kin17 protein is a DNA maintenance protein involved in the cellular response to the presence of DNA damage and suggest that it helps to overcome the perturbation of DNA replication produced by unrepaired lesions.
