Abstract
DNA double-strand break (DSB) is the most dangerous type of DNA damage, which may lead to cell death or oncogenic mutations. Homologous recombination (HR) and nonhomologous end-joining (NHEJ) are two typical DSB repair mechanisms. Recently, many studies have revealed that liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) plays a pivotal role in DSB repair and response. Through LLPS, the crucial biomolecules are quickly recruited to damaged sites with a high concentration to ensure DNA repair is conducted quickly and efficiently, which facilitates DSB repair factors activating downstream proteins or transmitting signals. In addition, the dysregulation of the DSB repair factor's phase separation has been reported to promote the development of a variety of diseases. This review not only provides a comprehensive overview of the emerging roles of LLPS in the repair of DSB but also sheds light on the regulatory patterns of phase separation in relation to the DNA damage response (DDR).

Khizer H, Maryam A, Ansari A, Ahmad MS, Khalid RR. Leveraging shape screening and molecular dynamics simulations to optimize PARP1-Specific chemo/radio-potentiators for antitumor drug design. Arch Biochem Biophys 2024; 756:110010. [PMID: 38642632 DOI: 10.1016/j.abb.2024.110010] [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: 12/23/2023] [Revised: 04/02/2024] [Accepted: 04/17/2024] [Indexed: 04/22/2024]
Abstract
PARP1 plays a pivotal role in DNA repair within the base excision pathway, making it a promising therapeutic target for cancers involving BRCA mutations. Current study is focused on the discovery of PARP inhibitors with enhanced selectivity for PARP1. Concurrent inhibition of PARP1 with PARP2 and PARP3 affects cellular functions, potentially causing DNA damage accumulation and disrupting immune responses. In step 1, a virtual library of 593 million compounds has been screened using a shape-based screening approach to narrow down the promising scaffolds. In step 2, hierarchical docking approach embedded in Schrödinger suite was employed to select compounds with good dock score, drug-likeness and MMGBSA score. Analysis supplemented with decomposition energy, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and hydrogen bond frequency analysis, pinpointed that active site residues; H862, G863, R878, M890, Y896 and F897 are crucial for specific binding of ZINC001258189808 and ZINC000092332196 with PARP1 as compared to PARP2 and PARP3. The binding of ZINC000656130962, ZINC000762230673, ZINC001332491123, and ZINC000579446675 also revealed interaction involving two additional active site residues of PARP1, namely N767 and E988. Weaker or no interaction was observed for these residues with PARP2 and PARP3. This approach advances our understanding of PARP-1 specific inhibitors and their mechanisms of action, facilitating the development of targeted therapeutics.

[PMID: 33387580 DOI: 10.1016/j.lfs.2020.118975] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/29/2020] [Revised: 12/07/2020] [Accepted: 12/19/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
AIMS Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase- (PARP)-1 is predominantly triggered by DNA damage. Overexpression of PARP-1 is known for its association with the pathogenesis of several CNS disorders, such as Stroke, Parkinson's disease (PD), Alzheimer's disease (AD), Huntington (HD) and Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). NAD+ depletion resulted PARP related cell death only happened when the trial used extreme high oxidization treatment. Inhibition of PARP1/2 may induce replication related cell death due to un-repaired DNA damage. This review has discussed PARP-1 modulated downstream pathways in neurodegeneration and various FDA approved PARP-1 inhibitors. MATERIALS AND METHODS A systematic literature review of PubMed, Medline, Bentham, Scopus and EMBASE (Elsevier) databases was carried out to understand the nature of the extensive work done on mechanistic role of Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase and its inhibition in Neurodegenerative diseases. KEY FINDINGS Several researchers have put forward number of potential treatments, of which PARP-1 enzyme has been regarded as a potent target intended for the handling of neurodegenerative ailments. Targeting PARP using its chemical inhibitors in various neurodegenerative may have therapeutic outcomes by reducing neuronal death mediated by PARPi. Numerous PARP-1 inhibitors have been studied in neurodegenerative diseases but they haven't been clinically evaluated. SIGNIFICANCE In this review, the pathological role of PARP-1 in various neurodegenerative diseases has been discussed along with the therapeutic role of PARP-1 inhibitors in various neurodegenerative diseases.
