DNase analysed by a novel competitive assay in patients with complications after ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccination and in normal unvaccinated blood donors. Scand J Immunol 2023; 98:e13274.

Abstract
Increased levels of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) have been detected in individuals with vaccine complications after the ChAdOx1 nCov vaccine with a correlation between the severity of vaccine side effects and the level of NETosis. DNases may disrupt NETs by degrading their content of DNA, and a balance has been reported between NETs and DNases. Because of this and since the inflammatory marker NETs may be used as a confirmatory test in diagnosing VITT, it is of interest to monitor levels of DNase in patients with increased NETs levels. The current novel rapid DNase ELISA was tested in blood samples of patients with known increased levels of NETs with or without VITT after ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccination. DNase levels in VITT patients were significantly increased compared with normal unvaccinated blood donors and compared with patients with post-vaccination symptoms but not VITT. However, since EDTA was found to inhibit DNase, serum and not EDTA-plasma samples should be applied for DNase testing. The novel DNase assay may serve as a supplementary test to the NETs test when analysing samples from patients with suspected increased NETs levels.

Abstract
Deoxyribonuclease I (DNase I) is a typical nuclease that plays key roles in many physiological processes and the development of a novel biosensing strategy for DNase I detection is of fundamental significance. In this study, a fluorescence biosensing nanoplatform based on a two-dimensional (2D) titanium carbide (Ti3C2) nanosheet for sensitive and specific detection of DNase I was reported. Fluorophore-labeled single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) can be spontaneously and selectively adsorbed on Ti3C2 nanosheet through the hydrogen bond and metal chelate interaction between phosphate groups of ssDNA and titanium of Ti3C2 nanosheet, resulting in effective quenching of the fluorescence emitted by fluorophore. Notably, it was found the enzyme activity of DNase I will be terminated by the Ti3C2 nanosheet. Therefore, the fluorophore-labeled ssDNA was firstly digested by DNase I and the "post-mixing" strategy of Ti3C2 nanosheet was chosen to evaluate the enzyme activity of DNase I, which provided the possibility of improving the accuracy of the biosensing method. Experimental results demonstrated that this method can be utilized for quantitative analysis of DNase I activity and exhibited a low detection limit of 0.16 U/ml. Additionally, the evaluation of DNase I activity in human serum samples and the screening of inhibitors with this developed biosensing strategy were successfully realized, implying that it has high potential as a promising nanoplatform for nuclease analysis in bioanalytical and biomedical fields.

Abstract
Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) is a widely used noninvasive biomarker for diagnosis and prognosis of multiple disease states. Emerging evidence suggests that cfDNA might not just be passive waste products of cell death but could have a physiological and pathological function in inflammation and autoimmunity. The balance of cfDNA generation and clearance may thus be vital in health and disease. In particular, plasma nuclease activity has been linked to multiple pathologies including cancer and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and associated with profound changes in the nonrandom fragmentation of cfDNA. Lastly, in this review, we explore the effects of DNA fragmentation factor B (DFFB), DNASE1L3, and DNASE1 on cfDNA levels and their fragmentomic profiles, and what these recent insights reveal about the biology of cfDNA.

Abstract
Extracellular DNA, also called cell-free DNA, released from dying cells or activated immune cells can be recognized by the immune system as a danger signal causing or enhancing inflammation. The cleavage of extracellular DNA is crucial for limiting the inflammatory response and maintaining homeostasis. Deoxyribonucleases (DNases) as enzymes that degrade DNA are hypothesized to play a key role in this process as a determinant of the variable concentration of extracellular DNA. DNases are divided into two families-DNase I and DNase II, according to their biochemical and biological properties as well as the tissue-specific production. Studies have shown that low DNase activity is both, a biomarker and a pathogenic factor in systemic lupus erythematosus. Interventional experiments proved that administration of exogenous DNase has beneficial effects in inflammatory diseases. Recombinant human DNase reduces mucus viscosity in lungs and is used for the treatment of patients with cystic fibrosis. This review summarizes the currently available published data about DNases, their activity as a potential biomarker and methods used for their assessment. An overview of the experiments with systemic administration of DNase is also included. Whether low-plasma DNase activity is involved in the etiopathogenesis of diseases remains unknown and needs to be elucidated.

Abstract
Switchable luminescent bioprobes whose emission can be turned on as a function of specific enzymatic activity are emerging as important tools in chemical biology. We report a promising platform for the development of label-free and continuous enzymatic assays in high-throughput mode based on the reversible solvent-induced self-assembly of a neutral dinuclear Pt(II) complex. To demonstrate the utility of this strategy, the switchable luminescence of a dinuclear Pt(II) complex was utilized in developing an experimentally simple, fast (10 min), low cost, and label-free turn-on luminescence assay for the endonuclease enzyme DNAse I. The complex displays a near-IR (NIR) aggregation-induced emission at 785 nm in aqueous solution that is completely quenched upon binding to G-quadruplex DNA from the human c-myc oncogene. Luminescence is restored upon DNA degradation elicited by exposure to DNAse I. Correlation between near-IR luminescence intensity and DNAse I concentration in human serum samples allows for fast and label-free detection of DNAse I down to 0.002 U/mL. The Pt(II) complex/DNA assembly is also effective for identification of DNAse I inhibitors, and assays can be performed in multiwell plates compatible with high-throughput screening. The combination of sensitivity, speed, convenience, and cost render this method superior to all other reported luminescence-based DNAse I assays. The versatile response of the Pt(II) complex to DNA structures promises broad potential applications in developing real-time and label-free assays for other nucleases as well as enzymes that regulate DNA topology.

Abstract
Heart failure is a complex clinical syndrome that results from any structural or functional impairment of ventricular filling or the ejection of blood, and is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in industrialized countries. The mechanisms underlying the development of heart failure are multiple, complex and not well understood. Cardiac mass and its homeostasis are maintained by the balance between protein synthesis and degradation, and an imbalance is likely to result in cellular dysfunction and disease. The protein degradation systems are the principle mechanisms for maintaining cellular homeostasis via protein quality control. Three major protein degradation systems have been identified, namely the calpain system, autophagy, and the ubiquitin proteasome system. Proinflammatory mediators involve the development and progression of heart failure. DNA and RNA degradation systems play a critical role in regulating inflammation and maintaining cellular homeostasis mediated by damaged DNA clearance and posttranscriptional regulation, respectively. This review discusses some recent advances in understanding the role of these degradation systems in heart failure.

Abstract
There are only a few systematic rules about how to selectively control the formation of DNA-templated metal nanoparticles (NPs) by varying sequence combinations of double-stranded DNA (dsDNA), although many attempts have been made. Herein, we develop a facile method for sequence-dependent formation of fluorescent CuNPs by using dsDNA as templates. Compared with random sequences, AT sequences are better templates for highly fluorescent CuNPs. Other specific sequences, for example, GC sequences, do not induce the formation of CuNPs. These results shed light on directed DNA metallization in a sequence-specific manner. Significantly, both the fluorescence intensity and the fluorescence lifetime of CuNPs can be tuned by the length or the sequence of dsDNA. In order to demonstrate the promising practicality of our findings, a sensitive and label-free fluorescence nuclease assay is proposed.

Abstract
Nucleolytic enzymes are associated with various diseases, and several methods have been developed for their detection. DNase expression is modulated in such diseases as acute myocardial infarction, transient myocardial ischemia, oral cancer, stomach cancer, and malignant lymphoma, and DNase I is used in cystic fibroma therapy. RNase is used to treat mesothelial cancer because of its antiproliferative, cytotoxic, and antineoplastic activities. Angiogenin, an angiogenic factor, is a member of the RNase A family. Angiogenin inhibitors are being developed as anticancer drugs. In this review, we describe fluorometric and electrochemical techniques for detecting DNase and RNase in disease. Oligonucleotides having fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET)-causing chromophores are non-fluorescent by themselves, yet become fluorescent upon cleavage by DNase or RNase. These oligonucleotides serve as a powerful tool to detect activities of these enzymes and provide a basis for drug discovery. In electrochemical techniques, ferrocenyl oligonucleotides with or without a ribonucleoside unit are used for the detection of RNase or DNase. This technique has been used to monitor blood or serum samples in several diseases associated with DNase and RNase and is unaffected by interferents in these sample types.

Abstract
Innate immune cells play a major role in the early response to myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (MI/R) injury. Recombinant human ADAMTS13 (rhADAMTS13), cleaving von Willebrand factor (VWF), reduces leukocyte recruitment in mice. Death of cardiomyocytes and the possible formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) may result in chromatin release that is prothrombotic and cytotoxic. We investigated the pathophysiological role of extracellular chromatin during MI/R to evaluate the therapeutic potential of targeting extracellular DNA and VWF by using DNase I with/without rhADAMTS13. Finally, we examined the impact of histone citrullination and NETosis by peptidylarginine deiminase 4 (PAD4) on MI/R. We used a 24-hour MI/R mouse surgical model. MI/R injury caused an increase in plasma nucleosomes, abundant neutrophil infiltration, and the presence of citrullinated histone H3 at the site of injury. Both monotherapies and coadministration of DNase I and rhADAMTS13 revealed a cardioprotective effect, resulting in subsequent improvement of cardiac contractile function. PAD4(-/-) mice, which do not produce NETs, were also significantly protected from MI/R and DNase I treatment had no further beneficial effect. We demonstrate that extracellular chromatin released through NETosis exacerbates MI/R injury. Targeting both VWF-mediated leukocyte recruitment and chromatin removal may be a new therapeutic strategy to reduce ischemia-related cardiac damage.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Aberrant neutrophil activation occurs during the advanced stages of atherosclerosis. Once primed, neutrophils can undergo apoptosis or release neutrophil extracellular traps. This extracellular DNA exerts potent proinflammatory, prothrombotic, and cytotoxic properties. The goal of this study was to examine the relationships among extracellular DNA formation, coronary atherosclerosis, and the presence of a prothrombotic state. APPROACH AND RESULTS In a prospective, observational, cross-sectional cohort of 282 individuals with suspected coronary artery disease, we examined the severity, extent, and phenotype of coronary atherosclerosis using coronary computed tomographic angiography. Double-stranded DNA, nucleosomes, citrullinated histone H4, and myeloperoxidase-DNA complexes, considered in vivo markers of cell death and NETosis, respectively, were established. We further measured various plasma markers of coagulation activation and inflammation. Plasma double-stranded DNA, nucleosomes, and myeloperoxidase-DNA complexes were positively associated with thrombin generation and significantly elevated in patients with severe coronary atherosclerosis or extremely calcified coronary arteries. Multinomial regression analysis, adjusted for confounding factors, identified high plasma nucleosome levels as an independent risk factor of severe coronary stenosis (odds ratio, 2.14; 95% confidence interval, 1.26-3.63; P=0.005). Markers of neutrophil extracellular traps, such as myeloperoxidase-DNA complexes, predicted the number of atherosclerotic coronary vessels and the occurrence of major adverse cardiac events. CONCLUSIONS Our report provides evidence demonstrating that markers of cell death and neutrophil extracellular trap formation are independently associated with coronary artery disease, prothrombotic state, and occurrence of adverse cardiac events. These biomarkers could potentially aid in the prediction of cardiovascular risk in patients with chest discomfort.

Abstract
Coronary artery disease is a multifunctional disease and represents one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Oxidative stress appears as an etiological factor for myocardial damage during acute myocardial infarction. Some data suggest that acute coronary syndromes may also be influenced by matrix metalloproteinases through degradation of the fibrous cap of vulnerable atherosclerotic lesions. It has been indicated that gelatinases A and B play a key role in acute myocardial infarction and deoxyribonuclease I has been postulated to be a novel early phase marker of disease. The aim was to study activity of gelatinases A and B in acute myocardial infarction and its association with some membrane damage markers. Seventy-five patients with disease and seventy-five healthy controls were enrolled. Activities of lactate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase, and deoxyribonuclease I were estimated using standard spectrophotometric assay and isoforms of lactate and malate dehydrogenases were determined using direct zymography. Activity of dehydrogenases was significantly higher in patients, while deoxyribonuclease I was lower. Isoform 2 of lactate dehydrogenase was significantly higher in the patient group. Gelatinases A and B were detected only in patients group. The results suggest determination of serum malate dehydrogenase activity to be used as an additional parameter for acute myocardial infarction diagnosis. Those findings suggest important role of gelatinases A and B as biomarkers of early stage of acute myocardial infarction together with membrane damage parameters.

Abstract
A ferrocenyloligonucleotide (FcODN) having contiguous cytosine bases was immobilized effectively and reproducibly on a gold electrode furnished with a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) having an N-hydroxysuccinimide-activated carboxylic acid. The resulting electrode was used as a sensor chip in DNase I assay. Thus, the current response of the modified electrode decreased upon addition of DNase I, demonstrating that the phosphodiester bonds of FcODN were cleaved. The DNase I activity assessed by Deltai defined as (i0-i)/i0, where i0 and i represent the current before and after DNase I treatment, respectively, was found to be reproducible with a standard deviation not greater than 9%. The DNase I can be quantitated in the range of 10(-5) to 10(-3) units microL(-1) with a detection limit of 10(-5) units microL(-1) with this sensor chip. The current signal of the FcODN electrode was stable to storage in Biopak water up to 16 days with a 30% signal decrease over this period. DNase I activity in human sera was also determined successfully with this sensor chip.

Abstract
We recently reported abrupt elevation of serum deoxyribonuclease I (DNase I) activity in the early stage of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The aim of this study was to evaluate whether serum DNase I could be used as a marker for detection of myocardial ischemia that accompanies AMI. In consecutive patients with stable angina pectoris undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or the vasospastic angina pectoris (VSAP) provocation test, together with patients undergoing coronary angiography (CAG), serum samples were tested for DNase I activity. Serum DNase I activity was found to rise significantly within 3h after PCI, and also after the provocation test in the VSAP-positive group. In all of the CAG and VSAP-negative patients, DNase I activity levels remained unchanged. Transient myocardial ischemia resulting from PCI or VSAP induces a significant elevation of serum DNase I activity, indicating that serum DNase I may be applicable as a novel and specific marker for detection of myocardial ischemia. Similarly, it is suggested that serum DNase I could be potentially useful as a biochemical marker for diagnosis of death due to ischemic heart disease.

Levels of serum deoxyribonuclease I activity on admission in patients with acute myocardial infarction can be useful in predicting left ventricular enlargement due to remodeling. J Cardiol 2009; 53:196-203. [PMID: 19304122 DOI: 10.1016/j.jjcc.2008.10.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/13/2008] [Revised: 10/23/2008] [Accepted: 10/29/2008] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Serum deoxyribonuclease I (DNase I) activity has recently been highlighted as a potential diagnostic marker for the early detection of an acute myocardial infarction (AMI). We evaluated whether the serum DNase I activity was associated with the parameters of the left ventricular (LV) remodeling after an AMI. METHODS We measured the serum DNase I activity in 45 patients with an AMI who were admitted to our hospital within approximately 4 h of the onset of their chest pain. We also evaluated the LV ejection fraction (LVEF), LV end-diastolic volume (LVEDV), and LV end-systolic volume (LVESV) of each patient by echocardiography at the time of admission and at 6 months after the onset of the AMI. RESULTS The serum DNase I activity peaked at 3.5+/-2.0 h after the onset of the symptoms in the patients with an AMI, thereafter exhibiting a time-dependent decline within 12 h, and a return to the basal level within 24 h in almost all cases. Neither the LVEF, LVEDV, nor LVESV in each patient on admission exhibited a significant correlation to the peak levels of the serum DNase I activity. Although there was no correlation between the peak DNase I activity and LVEF at 6 months after the onset, a significant positive correlation of the peak DNase I activity with LVEDV and LVESV (r=0.48, p<0.001 and r=0.34, p=0.02, respectively) was found. Furthermore, the LVEDV at 6 months after the onset in the high DNase I activity group (> 17.9 U/L) were significantly higher than those in the low DNase I activity group (< or = 17.9 U/L) (118.0+/-28.2 ml vs 89.3+/-25.4 ml, p=0.026). CONCLUSIONS The serum DNase I activity level may predict LV enlargement associated with remodeling after an AMI.
