Ataxia Telangiectasia patient-derived neuronal and brain organoid models reveal mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress. Neurobiol Dis 2024; 199:106562. [PMID: 38876322 DOI: 10.1016/j.nbd.2024.106562] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/11/2024] [Revised: 06/09/2024] [Accepted: 06/10/2024] [Indexed: 06/16/2024] Open
Abstract
Ataxia Telangiectasia (AT) is a rare disorder caused by mutations in the ATM gene and results in progressive neurodegeneration for reasons that remain poorly understood. In addition to its central role in nuclear DNA repair, ATM operates outside the nucleus to regulate metabolism, redox homeostasis and mitochondrial function. However, a systematic investigation into how and when loss of ATM affects these parameters in relevant human neuronal models of AT was lacking. We therefore used cortical neurons and brain organoids from AT-patient iPSC and gene corrected isogenic controls to reveal levels of mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and senescence that vary with developmental maturity. Transcriptome analyses identified disruptions in regulatory networks related to mitochondrial function and maintenance, including alterations in the PARP/SIRT signalling axis and dysregulation of key mitophagy and mitochondrial fission-fusion processes. We further show that antioxidants reduce ROS and restore neurite branching in AT neuronal cultures, and ameliorate impaired neuronal activity in AT brain organoids. We conclude that progressive mitochondrial dysfunction and aberrant ROS production are important contributors to neurodegeneration in AT and are strongly linked to ATM's role in mitochondrial homeostasis regulation.

Abstract
Transcription and its regulation pose challenges related to DNA torsion and supercoiling of the DNA template. RNA polymerase tracking the helical groove of the DNA introduces positive helical torsion and supercoiling upstream and negative torsion and supercoiling behind its direction of travel. This can inhibit transcriptional elongation and other processes essential to transcription. In addition, chromatin remodeling associated with gene activation can generate or be hindered by excess DNA torsional stress in gene regulatory regions. These topological challenges are solved by DNA topoisomerases via a strand-passage reaction which involves transiently breaking and re-joining of one (type I topoisomerases) or both (type II topoisomerases) strands of the phosphodiester backbone. This review will focus on one of the two mammalian type II DNA topoisomerase enzymes, DNA topoisomerase II beta (TOP2B), that have been implicated in correct execution of developmental transcriptional programs and in signal-induced transcription, including transcriptional activation by nuclear hormone ligands. Surprisingly, several lines of evidence indicate that TOP2B-mediated protein-free DNA double-strand breaks are involved in signal-induced transcription. We discuss the possible significance and origins of these DSBs along with a network of protein interaction data supporting a variety of roles for TOP2B in transcriptional regulation.

Poly(ADP-Ribose) Polymerase-1 Lacking Enzymatic Activity Is Not Compatible with Mouse Development. Cells 2023; 12:2078. [PMID: 37626888 PMCID: PMC10453916 DOI: 10.3390/cells12162078] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/24/2023] [Revised: 08/11/2023] [Accepted: 08/11/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP1) binds DNA lesions to catalyse poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation (PARylation) using NAD+ as a substrate. PARP1 plays multiple roles in cellular activities, including DNA repair, transcription, cell death, and chromatin remodelling. However, whether these functions are governed by the enzymatic activity or scaffolding function of PARP1 remains elusive. In this study, we inactivated in mice the enzymatic activity of PARP1 by truncating its C-terminus that is essential for ART catalysis (PARP1ΔC/ΔC, designated as PARP1-ΔC). The mutation caused embryonic lethality between embryonic day E8.5 and E13.5, in stark contrast to PARP1 complete knockout (PARP1-/-) mice, which are viable. Embryonic stem (ES) cell lines can be derived from PARP1ΔC/ΔC blastocysts, and these mutant ES cells can differentiate into all three germ layers, yet, with a high degree of cystic structures, indicating defects in epithelial cells. Intriguingly, PARP1-ΔC protein is expressed at very low levels compared to its full-length counterpart, suggesting a selective advantage for cell survival. Noticeably, PARP2 is particularly elevated and permanently present at the chromatin in PARP1-ΔC cells, indicating an engagement of PARP2 by non-enzymatic PARP1 protein at the chromatin. Surprisingly, the introduction of PARP1-ΔC mutation in adult mice did not impair their viability; yet, these mutant mice are hypersensitive to alkylating agents, similar to PARP1-/- mutant mice. Our study demonstrates that the catalytically inactive mutant of PARP1 causes the developmental block, plausibly involving PARP2 trapping.

Factors for the development of anemia in patients with newly introduced olaparib: A retrospective case-control study. Medicine (Baltimore) 2023; 102:e34123.

Abstract
Anemia is the most common dose-limiting toxicity of olaparib. However, few studies have analyzed the clinical features of olaparib-induced anemia. This study investigated the clinical features of olaparib-induced anemia. Additionally, the role of folate or vitamin B12 in olaparib-induced anemia was examined. This retrospective case-control study included patients who received olaparib at Mie University Hospital between January 2018 and December 2020. Data were collected between initiation of olaparib and discontinuation of olaparib or till December 2021. We investigated the development of grade ≥ 3 anemia during olaparib administration for at least 1 year. We examined patients with grade ≥ 3 anemia considering the mean corpuscular volume (MCV), its association with gastrointestinal events and cumulative dose of carboplatin. For the sub-study analysis, data on patients treated with olaparib for ovarian or endometrial cancer were collected to evaluate the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) or monthly changes in folate or vitamin B12 levels from baseline to 3 months after olaparib initiation. These data were collected between initiation of olaparib and discontinuation of olaparib or till November 2022. Patients with no data on folic acid or vitamin B12 levels were excluded from the sub-study. In the main study, 40 patients were included. Eighteen patients (45%) developed grade ≥ 3 anemia, and all patients discontinued treatment (94%) or reduced olaparib dose (67%) after developing anemia. Among the patients with grade ≥ 3 anemia, 9 (50%) exhibited macrocytic anemia and 15 (83%) had previously received carboplatin. The incidence of grade ≥ 2 dysgeusia was significantly higher in patients with grade ≥ 3 anemia (P = .034). Moreover, the cumulative dose of previously administered carboplatin was higher in patients who had 3 episodes of anemia (P = .102). In sub-study, 12 had data on folic acid and vitamin B12 levels. Sub-study analysis showed that none fulfilled the criteria for deficiency of folate or vitamin B12, while 3 developed grade 3 anemia. This study revealed that olaparib-induced anemia frequently occurs as macrocytic and normocytic erythroblastic anemia without folate or vitamin B12 deficiencies. A high cumulative dose of previously administered carboplatin and dysgeusia may be associated with olaparib-induced anemia.

Abstract
The retina, the accessible part of the central nervous system, has served as a model system to study the relationship between energy utilization and metabolite supply. When the metabolite supply cannot match the energy demand, retinal neurons are at risk of death. As the powerhouse of eukaryotic cells, mitochondria play a pivotal role in generating ATP, produce precursors for macromolecules, maintain the redox homeostasis, and function as waste management centers for various types of metabolic intermediates. Mitochondrial dysfunction has been implicated in the pathologies of a number of degenerative retinal diseases. It is well known that photoreceptors are particularly vulnerable to mutations affecting mitochondrial function due to their high energy demand and susceptibility to oxidative stress. However, it is unclear how defective mitochondria affect other retinal neurons. Nuclear respiratory factor 1 (Nrf1) is the major transcriptional regulator of mitochondrial biogenesis, and loss of Nrf1 leads to defective mitochondria biogenesis and eventually cell death. Here, we investigated how different retinal neurons respond to the loss of Nrf1. We provide in vivo evidence that the disruption of Nrf1-mediated mitochondrial biogenesis results in a slow, progressive degeneration of all retinal cell types examined, although they present different sensitivity to the deletion of Nrf1, which implicates differential energy demand and utilization, as well as tolerance to mitochondria defects in different neuronal cells. Furthermore, transcriptome analysis on rod-specific Nrf1 deletion uncovered a previously unknown role of Nrf1 in maintaining genome stability.

Abstract
Etoposide (VP-16) is used for the treatment of various cancers, including nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC); however, cancers develop resistance to this agent by promoting DNA repair. The DNA-PK (DNA-PKcs) catalytic subunit and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) mediate acquired resistance and poor survival in NPC cells exposed to DNA damaging agents. DNA repair can alter the sensitivity of NPC cells to DNA damaging agents, and these two enzymes function concomitantly in response to DNA damage in vivo. Therefore, we explored the relationship between DNA-PKcs and PARP1, which may affect NPC cell survival by regulating DNA repair after VP-16 treatment. We performed quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, western blotting, and enzyme-linked immunoassays and found that DNA-PKcs knockdown downregulated the PARP1 and PAR expression. Conversely, PARP1 knockdown reduced DNA-PKcs activity, indicating the mutual regulation between DNA-PKcs and PARP1 in VP-16-induced DNA repair. Moreover, a combination treatment with olaparib (a PARP1 inhibitor) and NU7441 (a DNA-PKcs inhibitor) sensitized NPC cells to VP-16 in vitro and in vivo, suggesting that the combined treatment of olaparib, NU7441, and a DNA-damaging agent may be a successful treatment regimen in patients with NPC.

Abstract
Background: Different parts of Dillenia pentagyna have long been used in traditional medicines to cure several diseases including cancer. However, the mechanism(s) of anti-cancer effects are still unknown. We aimed to elucidate the anti-metastatic potential of ethanolic extracts of leaves of D. pentagyna (EELDP) and active fractions of it in highly metastatic human cancer cells. Methods: We screened different HPLC fractions of EELDP based on their anti-metastatic effect. We used TLC and ESI-MS for determining the presence of various phytochemicals in EELDP and fractions. We monitored in vitro anti-metastasis effect of EELDP (0-0.6 mg/ml) and active fractions (0-0.050 mg/ml) on various human cancer cells like A549, HeLa, and U2OS. Results: EELDP significantly reduced cell viability and cell migration in A549, HeLa, and U2OS cells. However, higher sensitivity was observed in A549 cells. We screened 2 active HPLC fractions F6 and F8 having anti-MMPs activity. EELDP and active fractions reduced metastasis via the NF-κB pathway, decreased the expression of Vimentin, N-cadherin, and increased the expression of Claudin-1. Conclusion: Significant reduction of metastasis by EELDP at a dose of 0.1 mg/ml or by active fractions at 0.050 mg/ml implicates that the active compound(s) present in crude or fractions are extremely potent to control highly metastatic cancer.

Abstract
Transcription is regulated and mediated by multiprotein complexes in a chromatin context. Transcription causes changes in DNA topology which is modulated by DNA topoisomerases, enzymes that catalyse changes in DNA topology via transient breaking and re-joining of one or both strands of the phosphodiester backbone. Mammals have six DNA topoisomerases, this review focuses on one, DNA topoisomerase II beta (TOP2B). In the absence of TOP2B transcription of many developmentally regulated genes is altered. Long genes seem particularly susceptible to the lack of TOP2B. Biochemical studies of the role of TOP2B in transcription regulated by ligands such as nuclear hormones, growth factors and insulin has revealed PARP1 associated with TOP2B and also PRKDC, XRCC5 and XRCC6. Analysis of publicly available databases of protein interactions confirms these interactions and illustrates interactions with other key transcriptional regulators including TRIM28. TOP2B has been shown to interact with proteins involved in chromosome organisation including CTCF and RAD21. Comparison of publicly available Chip-seq datasets reveals the location at which these proteins interact with genes. The availability of resources such as large datasets of protein-protein interactions, e.g. BioGrid and IntAct and protein-DNA interactions such as Chip-seq in GEO enables scientists to extend models and propose new hypotheses.

Abstract
SPINDOC is tightly associated with the histone H3K4me3 effector protein SPIN1. To gain a better understanding of the biological roles of SPINDOC, we identified its interacting proteins. Unexpectedly, SPINDOC forms two mutually exclusive protein complexes, one with SPIN1 and the other with PARP1. Consistent with its ability to directly interact with PARP1, SPINDOC expression is induced by DNA damage, likely by KLF4, and recruited to DNA lesions with dynamics that follows PARP1. In SPINDOC knockout cells, the levels of PARylation are reduced, in both the absence and presence of DNA damage. The SPINDOC/PARP1 interaction promotes the clearance of PARP1 from damaged DNA, and also impacts the expression of known transcriptional targets of PARP1. To address the in vivo roles of SPINDOC in PARP1 regulation, we generate SPINDOC knockout mice, which are viable, but slightly smaller than their wildtype counterparts. The KO mice display reduced levels of PARylation and, like PARP1 KO mice, are hypersensitive to IR-induced DNA damage. The findings identify a SPIN1-independent role for SPINDOC in the regulation of PARP1-mediated PARylation and the DNA damage response. SPINDOC is known to interact with Spindlin1 (SPIN1), a histone code effector protein. Here, the authors show that SPINDOC is distributed between two distinct protein complexes, one comprising SPIN1 and the other one with PARP1. Their results suggest a role for SPINDOC in the regulation of PARP1- mediated PARylation and the DNA damage response.

Nuclear Respiratory Factor-1, a Novel SMAD4 Binding Protein, Represses TGF-β/SMAD4 Signaling by Functioning as a Transcriptional Cofactor. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms22115595. [PMID: 34070531 PMCID: PMC8198518 DOI: 10.3390/ijms22115595] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/03/2021] [Revised: 05/19/2021] [Accepted: 05/21/2021] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
SMAD4, a key regulator of transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) signaling, plays a major role in cell growth, migration, and apoptosis. In particular, TGF-β/SMAD induces growth arrest, and SMAD4 induces the expression of target genes such as p21WAF1 and p15INK4b through its interaction with several cofactors. Thus, inactivating mutations or the homozygous deletion of SMAD4 could be related to tumorigenesis or malignancy progression. However, in some cancer types, SMAD4 is neither mutated nor deleted. In the current study, we demonstrate that TGF-β signaling with a preserved SMAD4 function can contribute to cancer through associations with negative pathway regulators. We found that nuclear respiratory factor-1 (NRF1) is a novel interaction SMAD4 partner that inhibits TGF-β/SMAD4-induced p15INK4b mRNA expression by binding to SMAD4. Furthermore, we confirmed that NRF1 directly binds to the core region of the SMAD4 promoter, thereby decreasing SMAD4 mRNA expression. On the whole, our data suggest that NRF1 is a negative regulator of SMAD4 and can interfere with TGF-β/SMAD-induced tumor suppression. Our findings provide a novel perception into the molecular basis of TGF-β/SMAD4-signaling suppression in tumorigenesis.

Abstract
DNA topoisomerase II (TOP2) poisons induce protein-DNA crosslinks termed TOP2-DNA covalent complexes, in which TOP2 remains covalently bound to each end of an enzyme-induced double-strand DNA break (DSB) via a 5'-phosphotyrosyl bond. Repair of the enzyme-induced DSB first requires the removal of the TOP2 protein adduct, which, among other mechanisms, can be accomplished through the proteasomal degradation of TOP2. VCP/p97 is a AAA ATPase that utilizes energy from ATP hydrolysis to unfold protein substrates, which can facilitate proteasomal degradation by extracting target proteins from certain cellular structures (such as chromatin) and/or by aiding their translocation into the proteolytic core of the proteasome. In this study, we show that inhibition of VCP/p97 leads to the prolonged accumulation of etoposide-induced TOP2A and TOP2B complexes in a manner that is epistatic with the proteasomal pathway. VCP/p97 inhibition also reduces the etoposide-induced phosphorylation of histone H2A.X, indicative of fewer DSBs. This suggests that VCP/p97 is required for the proteasomal degradation of TOP2-DNA covalent complexes and is thus likely to be an important mediator of DSB repair after treatment with a TOP2 poison. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: TOP2 poisons are chemotherapeutic agents used in the treatment of a range of cancers. A better understanding of how TOP2 poison-induced DNA damage is repaired could improve therapy with TOP2 poisons by increasing TOP2 poison cytotoxicity and reducing genotoxicity. The results presented herein suggest that repair of TOP2-DNA covalent complexes involves the protein segregase VCP/p97.

Abstract
There are conflicting data about localization of poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase-1 and its product poly(ADP-ribose) in mitochondria. To finally clarify the discussion, we investigated with biochemical and cell biological methods the potential presence of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 in these organelles. Our data show that endogenous and overexpressed poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase 1 is only localized to the nucleus with a clear exclusion of cytosolic compartments. In addition, highly purified mitochondria devoid of nuclear contaminations do not contain poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase-1. Although no poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase-1 enzyme is detectable in mitochondria, a shorter variant of its product poly(ADP-ribose) is present, associated specifically with a small subset of mitochondrial proteins as revealed by immunoprecipitation and protein fingerprint analysis. These proteins are located at key-points of the Krebs-cycle, are chaperones involved in mitochondrial functionality and quality-control, and are RNA-binding proteins important for transcript stability, respectively. Of note, despite the fact that especially poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase-1 is its own major target for modification, we could not detect this enzyme by mass spectrometry in these organelles. These data suggests a new way of targeted nuclear-mitochondrial signaling, mediated by nuclear poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation dependent on poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase-1.

Insights into the functional aspects of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) in mitochondrial homeostasis in Dictyostelium discoideum. Biol Cell 2020; 112:222-237.

Abstract
BACKGROUND INFORMATION Poly(ADP-ribose) Polymerase-1 (PARP-1) is predominantly a nuclear protein and involved in various cellular processes like DNA repair, cell death, development, chromatin modulation etc. PARP-1 utilizes NAD+ and adds negatively charged PAR moieties on the target proteins. Over-activation of PARP-1 has been shown to cause energy crisis mediated cell death in which mitochondrial homeostasis is also affected. Moreover, the presence of mitochondrial NAD+ pools highlights the role of PARP-1 in mitochondria. The aim of present study is to understand the physiological role of PARP-1 in regulating mitochondrial functioning by varying the levels of PARP-1 in Dictyostelium discoideum. Intra-mitochondrial PARylation was analyzed by indirect immunofluorescence. Further, the effect of altered levels of PARP-1 i.e. overexpression, downregulation, knockout and its chemical inhibition was studied on mitochondrial respiration, reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, ATP production, mitochondrial fission-fusion, mitochondrial morphology and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) content of D. discoideum. RESULTS Our results show intra-mitochondrial PARylation under oxidative stress. Altered levels of PARP-1 caused impairment in the mitochondrial respiratory capacity, leading to elevated ROS levels and reduced ATP production. Moreover, PARP-1 affects the mitochondrial morphology and mtDNA content, alters the mitochondrial fission-fusion processes in lieu of preventing cell death under physiological conditions. CONCLUSION The current study highlights the physiological role of PARP-1 in mitochondrial respiration, its morphology, fission-fusion processes and mtDNA maintenance in D. discoideum. SIGNIFICANCE This study would provide new clues on the PARP-1's crucial role in mitochondrial homeostasis, exploring the therapeutic potential of PARP-1 in various mitochondrial diseases.

Abstract
The hepatitis B virus (HBV) chronically infects over 250 million people worldwide and is one of the leading causes of liver cancer and hepatocellular carcinoma. HBV persistence is due in part to the highly stable HBV minichromosome or HBV covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA) that resides in the nucleus. As HBV replication requires the help of host transcription factors to replicate, focusing on host protein–HBV genome interactions may reveal insights into new drug targets against cccDNA. The structural details on such complexes, however, remain poorly defined. In this review, the current literature regarding host transcription factors’ interactions with HBV cccDNA is discussed.

Abstract
The mechanisms that contribute to retinal tissue destruction during the onset and progression of AIDS-related human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) retinitis remain unclear. Evidence for the stimulation of multiple cell death pathways including apoptosis, necroptosis, and pyroptosis during the pathogenesis of experimental murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV) retinitis in mice with retrovirus-induced immunosuppression (MAIDS) has been reported. Parthanatos is a caspase-independent cell death pathway mediated by rapid overactivation of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) and distinct from other cell death pathways. Using the MAIDS model of MCMV retinitis, studies were performed to test the hypothesis that intraocular MCMV infection of mice with MAIDS stimulates parthanatos-associated messenger RNAs (mRNAs) and proteins within the eye during the development of retinal necrosis that takes place by 10 days after MCMV infection. MCMV-infected eyes of MAIDS mice exhibited significant stimulation of PARP-1 mRNA and proteins at 3 days after infection but declined thereafter at 6 and 10 days after infection. Additional studies showed the intraocular stimulation of mRNAs or proteins before MCMV retinitis development for two additional participants in parthanatos, polymer of ADP-ribose and poly (ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase. These results provide new evidence for a role for parthanatos during MAIDS-related MCMV retinitis that may also extend to AIDS-related HCMV retinitis.

Abstract
T-2 toxin is a major pollutant in crops and feedstuffs. Due to its high toxicity in a variety of organisms, T-2 toxin is of great concern as a threat to humans and to animal breeding. Overexpression of CYP1A1 may contribute to carcinogenesis, and CYP1A1 may be a promising target for the prevention and treatment of human malignancies. Therefore, it is essential to understand the regulatory mechanism by which T-2 toxin induces CYP1A1 expression in human cells. In this study, we confirmed that T-2 toxin (100 ng/mL) induced the expression of CYP1A1 in HepG2 cells through NRF1 and Sp1 bound to the promoter instead of through the well-recognized Aromatic hydrocarbon receptors (AhR). In cells treated with T-2 toxin, Sp1, but not NRF1, was significantly upregulated. However, T-2 toxin apparently promoted the interaction between NRF1 and Sp1 proteins, as revealed by IP analysis. Furthermore, in T-2 toxin-treated HepG2 cells, nuclear translocation of NRF1 was enhanced, while knockdown of Sp1 ablated NRF1 nuclear enrichment. Our results revealed that the upregulation of CYP1A1 by T-2 toxin in HepG2 cells depended on enhanced interaction between Sp1 and NRF1. This finding suggests the tumorigenic features of T-2 toxin might be related to the CYP1A1, which provides new insights to understand the toxicological effect of T-2 toxin.

Reduction of metastatic potential by inhibiting EGFR/Akt/p38/ERK signaling pathway and epithelial-mesenchymal transition after carbon ion exposure is potentiated by PARP-1 inhibition in non-small-cell lung cancer. BMC Cancer 2019; 19:829. [PMID: 31438892 PMCID: PMC6704719 DOI: 10.1186/s12885-019-6015-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 28] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2019] [Accepted: 08/05/2019] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Carbon ion (12C) radiotherapy is becoming very promising to kill highly metastatic cancer cells keeping adjacent normal cells least affected. Our previous study shows that combined PARP-1 inhibition with 12C ion reduces MMP-2,-9 synergistically in HeLa cells but detailed mechanism are not clear. To understand this mechanism and the rationale of using PARP-1 inhibitor with 12C ion radiotherapy for better outcome in controlling metastasis, we investigated metastatic potential in two non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) A549 and H1299 (p53-deficient) cells exposed with 12C ion in presence and absence of PARP-1 inhibition using siRNA or olaparib. METHODS We monitored cell proliferation, in-vitro cell migration, wound healing, expression and activity of MMP-2, - 9 in A549 and p53-deficient H1299 cell lines exposed with 12C ion with and without PARP-1 inhibitor olaparib/DPQ. Expression and phosphorylation of NF-kB, EGFR, Akt, p38, ERK was also observed in A549 and H1299 cells exposed with 12C ion with and without PARP-1 inhibition using siRNA or olaparib. We also checked expression of few marker genes involved in epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) pathways like N-cadherin, vimentin, anillin, claudin-1, - 2 in both NSCLC. To determine the generalized effect of 12C ion and olaparib in inhibition of cell's metastatic potential, wound healing and activity of MMP-2, - 9 was also studied in HeLa and MCF7 cell lines after 12C ion exposure and in combination with PARP-1 inhibitor olaparib. RESULTS Our experiments show that 12C ion and PARP-1 inhibition separately reduces cell proliferation, cell migration, wound healing, phosphorylation of EGFR, Akt, p38, ERK resulting inactivation of NF-kB. Combined treatment abolishes NF-kB expression and hence synergistically reduces MMP-2, - 9 expressions. Each single treatment reduces N-cadherin, vimentin, anillin but increases claudin-1, - 2 leading to suppression of EMT process. However, combined treatment synergistically alters these proteins to suppress EMT pathways significantly. CONCLUSION The activation pathways of transcription of MMP-2,-9 via NF-kB and key marker proteins in EMT pathways are targeted by both 12C ion and olaparib/siRNA. Hence, 12C ion radiotherapy could potentially be combined with olaparib as chemotherapeutic agent for better control of cancer metastasis.

Abstract
Cells constantly adapt their metabolic pathways to meet their energy needs and respond to nutrient availability. During the last two decades, it has become increasingly clear that NAD+, a coenzyme in redox reactions, also mediates several ubiquitous cell signaling processes. Protein ADP-ribosylation is a post-translational modification that uses NAD+ as a substrate and is best known as part of the genotoxic stress response. However, there is increasing evidence that NAD+-dependent ADP-ribosylation regulates other cellular processes, including metabolic pathways. In this review, we will describe the compartmentalized regulation of NAD+ biosynthesis, consumption, and regeneration with a particular focus on the role of ADP-ribosylation in the regulation of glucose metabolism in different cellular compartments.

Abstract
Despite the advancement of the pharmaceutical industry, medicinal plants are still a reliable source of traditional medicines to cure a number of diseases. Various parts of Dillenia pentagyna are used in traditional medicine in India for treatment of various disorders including cancers, but detailed mechanisms are still unknown. Dried leaves of D. pentagyna were extracted with ethanol and termed as an ethanolic extract of leaves of D. pentagyna (EELDP). Our aim was to elucidate the role of EELDP in in-vitro cell migration and apoptosis in highly metastatic human lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells. We measured cell viability and in-vitro cell migration in three different human cancer cells A549, HeLa and U2OS treated with EELDP (0-0.6 mg/mL). However, A549 cells showed higher sensitivity to EELDP treatment. Hence we studied several key markers of metastasis and apoptosis pathway in A549 cells treated with EELDP. EELDP treatment significantly reduced in-vitro cell migration, wound healing, expression and activity of MMP-2, MMP-9 via reduction of nuclear factor kappa Beta (NF-κβ). EELDP also reduced vimentin, N-cadherin and increased claudin-1. The intrinsic pathway of apoptosis was triggered by EELDP via the NF-κβ pathway through the increase of the Bax to Bcl2 ratio, leading to the fall of mitochondrial membrane potential and subsequently induced release of cytochrome c, activation of caspase-3 followed by nuclear fragmentation in A549 cells. Furthermore, we observed change of a few markers of metastasis and apoptosis in other two cell types HeLa and U2OS treated with EELDP. These data implicate that the effect of EELDP is not cell-specific. Since only 0.1 mg/mL EELDP significantly reduces in-vitro cell migration and increases apoptosis, the active compound(s) present in EELDP is very much potent to control highly metastatic cancer.

Abstract
Background Mitochondrial dysfunction has been implicated in the pathologies of a number of retinal degenerative diseases in both the outer and inner retina. In the outer retina, photoreceptors are particularly vulnerable to mutations affecting mitochondrial function due to their high energy demand and sensitivity to oxidative stress. However, it is unclear how defective mitochondrial biogenesis affects neural development and contributes to neural degeneration. In this report, we investigated the in vivo function of nuclear respiratory factor 1 (Nrf1), a major transcriptional regulator of mitochondrial biogenesis in both proliferating retinal progenitor cells (RPCs) and postmitotic rod photoreceptor cells (PRs). Methods We used mouse genetic techniques to generate RPC-specific and rod PR-specific Nrf1 conditional knockout mouse models. We then applied a comprehensive set of tools, including histopathological and molecular analyses, RNA-seq, and electroretinography on these mouse lines to study Nrf1-regulated genes and Nrf1’s roles in both developing retinas and differentiated rod PRs. For all comparisons between genotypes, a two-tailed two-sample student’s t-test was used. Results were considered significant when P < 0.05. Results We uncovered essential roles of Nrf1 in cell proliferation in RPCs, cell migration and survival of newly specified retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), neurite outgrowth in retinal explants, reconfiguration of metabolic pathways in RPCs, and mitochondrial morphology, position, and function in rod PRs. Conclusions Our findings provide in vivo evidence that Nrf1 and Nrf1-mediated pathways have context-dependent and cell-state-specific functions during neural development, and disruption of Nrf1-mediated mitochondrial biogenesis in rod PRs results in impaired mitochondria and a slow, progressive degeneration of rod PRs. These results offer new insights into the roles of Nrf1 in retinal development and neuronal homeostasis and the differential sensitivities of diverse neuronal tissues and cell types of dysfunctional mitochondria. Moreover, the conditional Nrf1 allele we have generated provides the opportunity to develop novel mouse models to understand how defective mitochondrial biogenesis contributes to the pathologies and disease progression of several neurodegenerative diseases, including glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration, Parkinson’s diseases, and Huntington’s disease.

Abstract
Estrogens coordinate and integrate cellular metabolism and mitochondrial activities by direct and indirect mechanisms mediated by differential expression and localization of estrogen receptors (ER) in a cell-specific manner. Estrogens regulate transcription and cell signaling pathways that converge to stimulate mitochondrial function- including mitochondrial bioenergetics, mitochondrial fusion and fission, calcium homeostasis, and antioxidant defense against free radicals. Estrogens regulate nuclear gene transcription by binding and activating the classical genomic estrogen receptors α and β (ERα and ERβ) and by activating plasma membrane-associated mERα, mERβ, and G-protein coupled ER (GPER, GPER1). Localization of ERα and ERβ within mitochondria and in the mitochondrial membrane provides additional mechanisms of regulation. Here we review the mechanisms of rapid and longer-term effects of estrogens and selective ER modulators (SERMs, e.g., tamoxifen (TAM)) on mitochondrial biogenesis, morphology, and function including regulation of Nuclear Respiratory Factor-1 (NRF-1, NRF1) transcription. NRF-1 is a nuclear transcription factor that promotes transcription of mitochondrial transcription factor TFAM (mtDNA maintenance factorFA) which then regulates mtDNA-encoded genes. The nuclear effects of estrogens on gene expression directly controlling mitochondrial biogenesis, oxygen consumption, mtDNA transcription, and apoptosis are reviewed.

Abstract
Cervical cancer is the fourth most common cancer affecting women worldwide. Among many factors, the presence of cancer stem cells, a subpopulation of cells inside the tumor, has been associated with a worse prognosis. Considering the importance of gene expression studies to understand the biology of cervical cancer stem cells (CCSC), this work identifies stable reference genes for cervical cancer cell lines SiHa, HeLa, and ME180 as well as their respective cancer stem-like cells. A literature review was performed to identify validated reference genes currently used to normalize RT-qPCR data in cervical cancer cell lines. Then, cell lines were cultured in regular monolayer or in a condition that favors tumor sphere formation. RT-qPCR was performed using five reference genes: ACTB, B2M, GAPDH, HPRT1, and TBP. Stability was assessed to validate the selected genes as suitable reference genes. The evaluation validated B2M, GAPDH, HPRT1, and TBP in these experimental conditions. Among them, GAPDH and TBP presented the lowest variability according to the analysis by Normfinder, Bestkeeper, and ΔCq methods, being therefore the most adequate genes to normalize the combination of all samples. These results suggest that B2M, GAPDH, HPRT1, and TBP are suitable reference genes to normalize RT-qPCR data of established cervical cancer cell lines SiHa, HeLa, and ME180 as well as their derived cancer stem-like cells. Indeed, GAPDH and TBP seem to be the most convenient choices for studying gene expression in these cells in monolayers or spheres.

Abstract
Male fertility disorders play a key role in half of all infertility cases. Reduction in testosterone induced by hypoxia might cause diseases in reproductive system and other organs. Hypoxic exposure caused a significant decrease of NRF1. Software analysis reported that the promoter region of steroidogenic acute regulatory protein (StAR) contained NRF1 binding sites, indicating NRF1 promoted testicular steroidogenesis. The purpose of this study is to determine NRF1 is involved in testosterone synthesis; and under hypoxia, the decrease of testosterone synthesis is caused by lower expression of NRF1. We designed both in vivo and in vitro experiments. Under hypoxia, the expressions of NRF1 in Leydig cells and testosterone level were significantly decreased both in vivo and in vitro. Overexpression and interference NRF1 could induced StAR and testosterone increased and decreased respectively. ChIP results confirmed the binding of NRF1 to StAR promoter region. In conclusion, decline of NRF1 expression downregulated the level of StAR, which ultimately resulted in a reduction in testosterone synthesis.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) plays a central role in numerous cellular processes including DNA repair, replication, and transcription. PARP interacts directly, indirectly or via PARylation with various oncogenic proteins and regulates several transcription factors thereby modulating carcinogenesis. Therapeutic inhibition of PARP is therefore perceived as a promising anticancer strategy and a number of PARP inhibitors (PARPi) are currently under development and clinical evaluation. PARPi inhibit the DNA repair pathway and thus form the concept of synthetic lethality in cancer therapeutics. Preclinical and clinical studies have shown the potential of PARPi as chemopotentiator, radiosensitizer, or as adjuvant therapeutic agents. Recent studies have shown that PARP-1 could be either oncogenic or tumor suppressive in different cancers. PARP inhibitor resistance is also a growing concern in the clinical setting. Recently, changes in the levels of PARP-1 activity or expression in cancer patients have provided the basis for consideration of PARP-1 regulatory proteins as potential biomarkers. This review focuses on the current developments related to the role of PARP in cancer progression, therapeutic strategies targeting PARP-associated oncogenic signaling, and future opportunities in use of PARPi in anticancer therapeutics.

Abstract
Hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) is a master regulator of oxygen homeostasis. Under hypoxia, the active HIF1-α subunits are mainly regulated through increased protein stabilization. Little is known concerning HIF-1α transcriptional regulation. Nuclear respiratory factor 1 (NRF-1) is a DNA-binding transcription factor that regulates mitochondrial biogenesis. In this study, we showed that NRF-1was a repressor of HIF-1α. The cellular depletion of NRF-1 by siRNA targeting leads to increased HIF-1αtranscriptional activity. EMSA, ChIP and luciferase activity allowed the identification of two functional NRF-1 binding sites within HIF-1α promoter. This study therefore identifies NRF-1 as a novel regulator of HIF-1α. © 2016 IUBMB Life, 68(9):748-755, 2016.

Abstract
Nuclear respiratory factor‑2α (NRF‑2α) is an important transcription factor that regulates mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation and regeneration. NRF‑2α regulates mitochondrial transcription factors (mTF)A and B, and mitochondrial DNA by indirectly regulating the mitochondrial respiratory enzyme chain subunit. In addition, NRF‑2α is involved in the mitochondrial energy metabolism. Peroxisome proliferator‑activated receptor γ coactivator 1α (PGC‑1α), is an important transcription coactivator of NRF‑2α. Adenosine monophosphate‑activated protein kinase (AMPK) is considered an important effector in the regulation of the energy metabolism balance of nervous system microenvironments. However, the signaling mechanism underlying the energy coupling of PGC‑1α and NRF‑2α in visual cortical neurons remains to be elucidated. The present study used a primary culture system of rat visual cortical neurons in order to investigate whether AMPK is involved in the regulation of NRF‑2α and PGC‑1α expression in cortical neurons. The results of the present study indicated that KCl depolarization rapidly activated AMPK, and significantly increased the expression levels of PGC‑1α, NRF‑2α and mtTFA, as well as adenosine triphosphate production in cultured neurons. Similarly, the AMPK agonists 5‑aminoimidazole‑4‑carboxamide riboside and resveratrol significantly increased the mRNA expression levels of PGC‑1α and NRF‑2α in cultured neurons. These responses were blocked by compound C, an AMPK inhibitor. In conclusion, AMPK is an important transcriptional regulator of the neuronal excitation response, and exerts its regulatory effects via the PGC‑1α/NRF‑2α signaling pathway.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribos)ylation (PARylation) is the catalytic function of the Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases (Parps) family for post-translational modification in cellular process. Being a major member of Parps, Parp1 is a crucial nuclear factor with biological significance in modulating DNA repair, DNA replication, transcription, DNA methylation and chromatin remodeling through PARylation of downstream proteins. In addition, high expression level and activity of Parp1 are correlated with pluripotent status, reprogramming, and cancer. Furthermore, epigenetic modulation of Parp1 is explored for regulating wide variety of gene expression. Genetic and pharmaceutical disruption of Parp1 further confirmed the importance of Parp1 in cell growth, DNA repair, and reprogramming efficiency. Taken together, the proximity toward the understanding of the modulation of Parp1 including interaction and modification in different fields will provide new insight for future studies. In this review, the biological significance of Parp1 in transcription and the epigenetic modulation of Parp1 in pluripotent status, reprogramming process and cancer will be summarized.

Abstract
Mitochondrial disorders are devastating genetic diseases for which efficacious therapies are still an unmet need. Recent studies report that increased availability of intracellular NAD obtained by inhibition of the NAD-consuming enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP)-1 or supplementation with the NAD-precursor nicotinamide riboside (NR) ameliorates energetic derangement and symptoms in mouse models of mitochondrial disorders. Whether these pharmacological approaches also improve bioenergetics of human cells harboring mitochondrial defects is unknown. It is also unclear whether the same signaling cascade is prompted by PARP-1 inhibitors and NR supplementation to improve mitochondrial homeostasis. Here, we show that human fibroblasts mutant for the NADH dehydrogenase (ubiquinone) Fe-S protein 1 (NDUFS1) subunit of respiratory complex I have similar ATP, NAD, and mitochondrial content compared with control cells, but show reduced mitochondrial membrane potential. Interestingly, mutant cells also show increased transcript levels of mitochondrial DNA but not nuclear DNA respiratory complex subunits, suggesting activation of a compensatory response. At variance with prior work in mice, however, NR supplementation, but not PARP-1 inhibition, increased intracellular NAD content in NDUFS1 mutant human fibroblasts. Conversely, PARP-1 inhibitors, but not NR supplementation, increased transcription of mitochondrial transcription factor A and mitochondrial DNA-encoded respiratory complexes constitutively induced in mutant cells. Still, both NR and PARP-1 inhibitors restored mitochondrial membrane potential and increased organelle content as well as oxidative activity of NDUFS1-deficient fibroblasts. Overall, data provide the first evidence that in human cells harboring a mitochondrial respiratory defect exposure to NR or PARP-1, inhibitors activate different signaling pathways that are not invariantly prompted by NAD increases, but equally able to improve energetic derangement.

Abstract
Mitochondria are essential in cellular stress responses. Mitochondrial output to environmental stress is a major factor in metabolic adaptation and is regulated by a complex network of energy and nutrient sensing proteins. Activation of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases (PARPs) has been known to impair mitochondrial function; however, our view of PARP-mediated mitochondrial dysfunction and injury has only recently fundamentally evolved. In this review, we examine our current understanding of PARP-elicited mitochondrial damage, PARP-mediated signal transduction pathways, transcription factors that interact with PARPs and govern mitochondrial biogenesis, as well as mitochondrial diseases that are mediated by PARPs. With PARP activation emerging as a common underlying mechanism in numerous pathologies, a better understanding the role of various PARPs in mitochondrial regulation may help open new therapeutic avenues.

Abstract
Mitochondrial disorders are deadly childhood diseases for which therapeutic remedies are an unmet need. Given that genetic suppression of the nuclear enzyme poly (adenine diphosphate-ribose) polymerase(PARP)-1 improves mitochondrial functioning, we investigated whether pharmacological inhibition of the enzyme affords protection in a mouse model of a mitochondrial disorder. We used mice lacking the Ndufs4 subunit of the respiratory complex I (Ndufs4 knockout [ KO] mice); these mice undergo progressive encephalopathy and die around postnatal day 50. Mice were treated daily with the potent PARP inhibitor N-(6-oxo-5,6-dihydrophenanthridin-2-yl)-(N,N-dimethylamino)acetamide hydrochloride (PJ34); neurological parameters, PARP activity, and mitochondrial homeostasis were evaluated. We found that mice receiving N-(6-oxo-5,6-dihydrophenanthridin-2-yl)-(N,N-dimethylamino)acetamide hydrochloride from postnatal day 30 to postnatal day 50 show reduced neurological impairment, and increased exploratory activity and motor skills compared with vehicle-treated animals. However, drug treatment did not delay or reduce death. We found no evidence of increased PARP activity within the brain of KO mice compared with heterozygous, healthy controls. Conversely, a 10-day treatment with the PARP inhibitor significantly reduced basal poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation in different organs of the KO mice, including brain, skeletal muscle, liver, pancreas, and spleen. In keeping with the epigenetic role of PARP-1, its inhibition correlated with increased expression of mitochondrial respiratory complex subunits and organelle number. Remarkably, pharmacological targeting of PARP reduced astrogliosis in olfactory bulb and motor cortex, but did not affect neuronal loss of KO mice. In light of the advanced clinical development of PARP inhibitors, these data emphasize their relevance to treatment of mitochondrial respiratory defects.

Abstract
Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP1) is an abundant, ubiquitously expressed NAD(+)-dependent nuclear enzyme that has prognostic value for a multitude of human cancers. PARP1 activity serves to poly (ADP-ribose)-ylate the vast majority of known client proteins and affects a number of cellular and biologic outcomes, by mediating the DNA damage response (DDR), base-excision repair (BER), and DNA strand break (DSB) pathways. PARP1 is also critically important for the maintenance of genomic integrity, as well as chromatin dynamics and transcriptional regulation. Evidence also indicates that PARP-directed therapeutics are "synthetic lethal" in BRCA1/2-deficient model systems. Strikingly, recent studies have unearthed exciting new transcriptional-regulatory roles for PARP1, which has profound implications for human malignancies and will be reviewed herein.

Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction has been implicated in the aetiology of many complex diseases, as well as the ageing process. Much of the research on mitochondrial dysfunction has focused on how mitochondrial damage may potentiate pathological phenotypes. The purpose of this review is to draw attention to the less well-studied mechanisms by which the cell adapts to mitochondrial perturbations. This involves communication of stress to the cell and successful induction of quality control responses, which include mitophagy, unfolded protein response, upregulation of antioxidant and DNA repair enzymes, morphological changes, and if all else fails apoptosis. The mitochondrion is an inherently stressful environment and we speculate that dysregulation of stress signaling or an inability to switch on these adaptations during times of mitochondrial stress may underpin mitochondrial dysfunction and hence amount to pathological states over time.

Abstract
The 3' ends of most eukaryotic mRNAs are produced by an endonucleolytic cleavage followed by synthesis of a poly(A) tail. Poly(A) polymerase (PAP), the enzyme that catalyzes the formation of the tail, is subject to tight regulation involving several posttranslational modifications. Here we show that the enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) modifies PAP and regulates its activity both in vitro and in vivo. PARP1 binds to and modifies PAP by poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation (PARylation) in vitro, which inhibits PAP activity. In vivo we show that PAP is PARylated during heat shock, leading to inhibition of polyadenylation in a PARP1-dependent manner. The observed inhibition reflects reduced RNA binding affinity of PARylated PAP in vitro and decreased PAP association with non-heat shock protein-encoding genes in vivo. Our results provide direct evidence that PARylation can control processing of mRNA precursors, and also identify PARP1 as a regulator of polyadenylation during thermal stress.

Abstract
The interaction of DNA with proteins in the context of chromatin has to be tightly regulated to achieve so different tasks as packaging, transcription, replication and repair. The very rapid and transient post-translational modification of proteins by poly(ADP-ribose) has been shown to take part in all four. Originally identified as immediate cellular answer to a variety of genotoxic stresses, already early data indicated the ability of this highly charged nucleic acid-like polymer to modulate nucleosome structure, the basic unit of chromatin. At the same time the enzyme responsible for synthesizing poly(ADP-ribose), the zinc-finger protein poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP1), was shown to control transcription initiation as basic factor TFIIC within the RNA-polymerase II machinery. Later research focused more on PARP-mediated regulation of DNA repair and cell death, but in the last few years, transcription as well as chromatin modulation has re-appeared on the scene. This review will discuss the impact of PARP1 on transcription and transcription factors, its implication in chromatin remodeling for DNA repair and probably also replication, and its role in controlling epigenetic events such as DNA methylation and the functionality of the insulator protein CCCTC-binding factor.

Abstract
PARP-1 is an abundant nuclear protein that plays an essential role in the regulation of many genome integrity and chromatin-based processes, such as DNA repair, replication or transcriptional regulation. PARP-1 modulates the function of chromatin and nuclear proteins through several poly(ADP-ribose) (pADPr)-dependent pathways. Aside from the clearly established role of PARP-1 in the maintenance of genome stability, PARP-1 also emerged as an important regulator that links chromatin functions with extranuclear compartments. pADPr signaling has notably been found to be responsible for PARP-1-mediated mitochondrial dysfunction and cell death. Defining the mechanisms that govern the intrinsic functions of PARP-1 is fundamental to the understanding of signaling networks regulated by pADPr. The emergence of mass spectrometry-based proteomics and its broad applications in the study of biological systems represents an outstanding opportunity to widen our knowledge of the functional spectrum of PARP-1. In this article, we summarize various PARP-1 targeted proteomics studies and proteome-wide analyses that shed light on its protein interaction partners, expression levels and post-translational modifications.

Abstract
The DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK) and Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP1) are critical enzymes that reduce genomic damage caused by DNA lesions. They are both activated by DNA strand breaks generated by physiological and environmental factors, and they have been shown to interact. Here, we report in vivo evidence that DNA-PK and PARP1 are equally necessary for rapid repair. We purified a DNA-PK/PARP1 complex loaded on DNA and performed electron microscopy and single particle analysis on its tetrameric and dimer-of-tetramers forms. By comparison with the DNA-PK holoenzyme and fitting crystallographic structures, we see that the PARP1 density is in close contact with the Ku subunit. Crucially, PARP1 binding elicits substantial conformational changes in the DNA-PK synaptic dimer assembly. Taken together, our data support a functional, in-pathway role for DNA-PK and PARP1 in double-strand break (DSB) repair. We also propose a NHEJ model where protein-protein interactions alter substantially the architecture of DNA-PK dimers at DSBs, to trigger subsequent interactions or enzymatic reactions.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation, attaching the ADP-ribose polymer chain to the receptor protein, is a unique posttranslational modification. Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) is a well-characterized member of the PARP family. In this review, we provide a general update on molecular structure and structure-based activity of this enzyme. However, we mainly focus on the roles of PARP-1 in inflammatory diseases. Specifically, we discuss the signaling pathway context that PARP-1 is involved in to regulate the pathogenesis of inflammation. PARP-1 facilitates diverse inflammatory responses by promoting inflammation-relevant gene expression, such as cytokines, oxidation-reduction-related enzymes, and adhesion molecules. Excessive activation of PARP-1 induces mitochondria-associated cell death in injured tissues and constitutes another mechanism for exacerbating inflammation.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) is a NAD-consuming enzyme with an emerging key role in epigenetic regulation of gene transcription. Although PARP-1 expression is characteristically restricted to the nucleus, a few studies report the mitochondrial localization of the enzyme and its ability to regulate organelle functioning. Here, we show that, despite exclusive nuclear localization of PARP-1, mitochondrial homeostasis is compromised in cell lines exposed to PARP-1 pharmacological inhibitors or small interfering RNA. PARP-1 suppression reduces integrity of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), as well as expression of mitochondria-encoded respiratory complex subunits COX-1, COX-2, and ND-2. Accordingly, PARP-1 localizes at promoters of nuclear genes encoding both the mtDNA repair proteins UNG1, MYH1, and APE1 and the mtDNA transcription factors TFB1M and TFB2M. It is noteworthy that poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation is required for nuclear gene expression of these mitochondrial proteins. Consistent with these findings, PARP-1 suppression impairs mitochondrial ATP production. Our results indicate that PARP-1 plays a central role in mitochondrial homeostasis by epigenetically regulating nuclear genes involved in mtDNA repair and transcription. These data might have important implications in pharmacology of PARP-1 inhibitors as well as clinical oncology and aging.

Abstract
Adriamycin (ADR) is a commonly used chemotherapeutic agent that also produces significant tissue damage. Mutations to mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and reductions in mtDNA copy number have been identified as contributors to ADR-induced injury. ADR nephropathy only occurs among specific mouse inbred strains, and this selective susceptibility to kidney injury maps as a recessive trait to chromosome 16A1-B1. Here, we found that sensitivity to ADR nephropathy in mice was produced by a mutation in the Prkdc gene, which encodes a critical nuclear DNA double-stranded break repair protein. This finding was confirmed in mice with independent Prkdc mutations. Overexpression of Prkdc in cultured mouse podocytes significantly improved cell survival after ADR treatment. While Prkdc protein was not detected in mitochondria, mice with Prkdc mutations showed marked mtDNA depletion in renal tissue upon ADR treatment. To determine whether Prkdc participates in mtDNA regulation, we tested its genetic interaction with Mpv17, which encodes a mitochondrial protein mutated in human mtDNA depletion syndromes (MDDSs). While single mutant mice were asymptomatic, Prkdc/Mpv17 double-mutant mice developed mtDNA depletion and recapitulated many MDDS and ADR injury phenotypes. These findings implicate mtDNA damage in the development of ADR toxicity and identify Prkdc as a MDDS modifier gene and a component of the mitochondrial genome maintenance pathway.

Abstract
There is compelling evidence to indicate an important role for increased local renin-angiotensin system activity in the pathogenesis of cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure. Resveratrol is a natural polyphenol that activates SIRT1, a novel cardioprotective and longevity factor having NAD(+)-dependent histone deacetylase activity. We tested the hypothesis whether resveratrol could prevent from angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced cardiovascular damage. Four-week-old double transgenic rats harboring human renin and human angiotensinogen genes (dTGR) were treated for 4 weeks either with SIRT1 activator resveratrol or SIRT1 inhibitor nicotinamide. Untreated dTGR and their normotensive Sprague-Dawley control rats (SD) received vehicle. Untreated dTGR developed severe hypertension as well as cardiac hypertrophy, and showed pronounced cardiovascular mortality compared with normotensive SD rats. Resveratrol slightly but significantly decreased blood pressure, ameliorated cardiac hypertrophy and prevented completely Ang II-induced mortality, whereas nicotinamide increased blood pressure without significantly influencing cardiac hypertrophy or survival. Resveratrol decreased cardiac ANP mRNA expression and induced cardiac mRNA expressions of mitochondrial biogenesis markers peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma coactivator (PGC-1alpha), mitochondrial transcription factor (Tfam), nuclear respiratory factor 1 (NRF-1) and cytochrome c oxidase subunit 4 (cox4). Resveratrol dose-dependently increased SIRT1 activity in vitro. Our findings suggest that the beneficial effects of SIRT1 activator resveratrol on Ang II-induced cardiac remodeling are mediated by blood pressure-dependent pathways and are linked to increased mitochondrial biogenesis.

Abstract
Definitive identification of promoters, their cis-regulatory motifs, and their trans-acting proteins requires experimental analysis. To define the HNRNPK promoter and its cognate DNA–protein interactions, we performed a comprehensive study combining experimental approaches, including luciferase reporter gene assays, chromatin immunoprecipitations (ChIP), electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSA), and mass spectrometry (MS). We discovered that out of the four potential HNRNPK promoters tested, the one containing the palindromic motif TCTCGCGAGA exhibited the highest activity in a reporter system assay. Although further EMSA and MS analyses, performed to uncover the identity of the palindrome-binding transcription factor, did identify a complex of DNA-binding proteins, neither method unambiguously identified the pertinent direct trans-acting protein(s). ChIP revealed similar chromatin states at the promoters with the palindromic motif and at housekeeping gene promoters. A ChIP survey showed significantly higher recruitment of PARP1, a protein identified by MS as ubiquitously attached to DNA probes, within heterochromatin sites. Computational analyses indicated that this palindrome displays features that mark nucleosome boundaries, causing the surrounding DNA landscape to be constitutively open. Our strategy of diverse approaches facilitated the direct characterization of various molecular properties of HNRNPK promoter bearing the palindromic motif TCTCGCGAGA, despite the obstacles that accompany in vitro methods.

Abstract
Mitochondrial physiology and biogenesis play a crucial role in the initiation and progression of cardiovascular disease following oxidative stress-induced damage such as atherosclerosis (AST). Dysfunctional mitochondria caused by an increase in mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, accumulation of mitochondrial DNA damage, and respiratory chain deficiency induces death of endothelial/smooth muscle cells and favors plaque formation/rupture via the regulation of mitochondrial biogenesis-related genes such as peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator (PGC-1), although more detailed mechanisms still need further study. Based on the effect of healthy mitochondria produced by mitochondrial biogenesis on decreasing ROS-mediated cell death and the recent finding that the regulation of PGC-1 involves mitochondrial fusion-related protein (mitofusin), we thus infer the regulatory role of mitochondrial fusion/fission balance in AST pathophysiology. In this review, the first section discusses the possible association between AST-inducing factors and the molecular regulatory mechanisms of mitochondrial biogenesis and dynamics, and explains the role of mitochondria-dependent regulation in cell apoptosis during AST development. Furthermore, nitric oxide has the Janus-faced effect by protecting vascular damage caused by AST while being a reactive nitrogen species (RNS) which act together with ROS to damage cells. Therefore, in the second section we discuss mitochondrial ATP-sensitive K(+) channels, which regulate mitochondrial ion transport to maintain mitochondrial physiology, involved in the regulation of ROS/RNS production and their influence on AST/cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Through this review, we can further appreciate the multi-regulatory functions of the mitochondria involved in AST development. The understanding of these related mechanisms will benefit drug development in treating AST/CVD through targeted biofunctions of mitochondria.

Abstract
The immune system comprises an innate and an adaptive immune response to combat pathogenic agents. The human enteropathogen Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium invades the intestinal mucosa and triggers an early innate proinflammatory host gene response, which results in diarrheal disease. Several host factors, including transcription factors and transcription coregulators, are involved in the acute early response to Salmonella infection. We found in a mouse model of enterocolitis induced by S. Typhimurium that the absence of the nuclear protein poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1), a previously described cofactor for NF-kappaB-mediated proinflammatory gene expression, is associated with a delayed proinflammatory immune response after Salmonella infection. Our data reveal that PARP1 is expressed in the proliferative zone of cecum crypts, where it is required for the efficient expression of proinflammatory genes, many of which are related to interferon signaling. Consequently, animals lacking PARP1 show impaired infiltration of immune cells into the gut, with severely delayed inflammation.

Abstract
Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) has an important role in the cellular response to a broad spectrum of DNA lesions. PARP-1 is strongly activated in response to double-stranded DNA breaks (DSBs), yet its contribution to the DSB response is poorly understood. Here we used bleomycin, a radiomimetic that generates DSBs with high specificity to focus on the response of PARP-1 to DSBs. We report that the induction of PARP-1 activity by bleomycin depends on the Ku antigen, a nonhomologous-DNA-End-Joining factor and protein phosphatase 5 (PP5). PARP-1 activation in response to bleomycin was reduced over 10-fold in Ku-deficient cells, whereas its activation in response to U.V. was unaffected. PARP-1 activation was rescued by reexpression of Ku, but was refractory to manipulation of DNA-dependent protein kinase or ATM. Similarly, PARP-1 activation subsequent to bleomycin was reduced 2-fold on ablation of PP5 and was increased 5-fold when PP5 was overexpressed. PP5 seemed to act directly on PARP-1, as its basal phosphorylation was reduced on overexpression of PP5, and PP5 dephosphorylated PARP-1 in vitro. These results highlight the functional importance of Ku antigen and PP5 for PARP-1 activity subsequent to DSBs.
