Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:6927. [PMID: 39000034 PMCID: PMC11241748 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25136927] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/08/2024] [Revised: 06/21/2024] [Accepted: 06/22/2024] [Indexed: 07/14/2024] Open
Abstract
Non-membrane compartments or biomolecular condensates play an important role in the regulation of cellular processes including DNA repair. Here, an ability of XRCC1, a scaffold protein involved in DNA base excision repair (BER) and single-strand break repair, to form protein-rich microphases in the presence of DNA duplexes was discovered. We also showed that the gap-filling activity of BER-related DNA polymerase λ (Pol λ) is significantly increased by the presence of XRCC1. The stimulation of the Pol λ activity was observed only at micromolar XRCC1 concentrations, which were well above the nanomolar dissociation constant determined for the XRCC1-Pol λ complex and pointed to the presence of an auxiliary stimulatory factor in addition to protein-protein interactions. Indeed, according to dynamic light scattering measurements, the stimulation of the Pol λ activity by XRCC1 was coupled with microphase separation in a protein-DNA mixture. Fluorescence microscopy revealed colocalization of Pol λ, XRCC1, and gapped DNA within the microphases. Thus, stimulation of Pol λ activity is caused both by its interaction with XRCC1 and by specific conditions of microphase separation; this phenomenon is shown for the first time.

Abstract
TIMELESS (TIM) in the fork protection complex acts as a scaffold of the replisome to prevent its uncoupling and ensure efficient DNA replication fork progression. Nevertheless, its underlying basis for coordinating leading and lagging strand synthesis to limit single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) exposure remains elusive. Here, we demonstrate that acute degradation of TIM at ongoing DNA replication forks induces the accumulation of ssDNA gaps stemming from defective Okazaki fragment (OF) processing. Cells devoid of TIM fail to support the poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation necessary for backing up the canonical OF processing mechanism mediated by LIG1 and FEN1. Consequently, recruitment of XRCC1, a known effector of PARP1-dependent single-strand break repair, to post-replicative ssDNA gaps behind replication forks is impaired. Physical disruption of the TIM-PARP1 complex phenocopies the rapid loss of TIM, indicating that the TIM-PARP1 interaction is critical for the activation of this compensatory pathway. Accordingly, combined deficiency of FEN1 and the TIM-PARP1 interaction leads to synergistic DNA damage and cytotoxicity. We propose that TIM is essential for the engagement of PARP1 to the replisome to coordinate lagging strand synthesis with replication fork progression. Our study identifies TIM as a synthetic lethal target of OF processing enzymes that can be exploited for cancer therapy.

Abstract
Breast cancer susceptibility 1/2 (BRCA1/2) genes play a crucial role in DNA damage repair, yet mutations in these genes increase the susceptibility to tumorigenesis. Exploiting the synthetic lethality mechanism between BRCA1/2 mutations and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibition has led to the development and clinical approval of PARP inhibitor (PARPi), representing a milestone in targeted therapy for BRCA1/2 mutant tumors. This approach has paved the way for leveraging synthetic lethality in tumor treatment strategies. Despite the initial success of PARPis, resistance to these agents diminishes their efficacy in BRCA1/2-mutant tumors. Investigations into PARPi resistance have identified replication fork stability and homologous recombination repair as key factors sensitive to PARPis. Additionally, studies suggest that replication gaps may also confer sensitivity to PARPis. Moreover, emerging evidence indicates a correlation between PARPi resistance and cisplatin resistance, suggesting a potential overlap in the mechanisms underlying resistance to both agents. Given these findings, it is imperative to explore the interplay between replication gaps and PARPi resistance, particularly in the context of platinum resistance. Understanding the impact of replication gaps on PARPi resistance may offer insights into novel therapeutic strategies to overcome resistance mechanisms and enhance the efficacy of targeted therapies in BRCA1/2-mutant tumors.

Abstract
DNA damage is fundamental to tumorigenesis, and the inability to repair DNA damage is a hallmark of many human cancers. DNA is repaired via the DNA damage repair (DDR) apparatus, which includes five major pathways. DDR deficiencies in cancers give rise to potential therapeutic targets, as cancers harboring DDR deficiencies become increasingly dependent on alternative DDR pathways for survival. In this review, we summarize the DDR apparatus, and examine the current state of research efforts focused on identifying vulnerabilities in DDR pathways that can be therapeutically exploited in pediatric extracranial solid tumors. We assess the potential for synergistic combinations of different DDR inhibitors as well as combinations of DDR inhibitors with chemotherapy. Lastly, we discuss the immunomodulatory implications of targeting DDR pathways and the potential for using DDR inhibitors to enhance tumor immunogenicity, with the goal of improving the response to immune checkpoint blockade in pediatric solid tumors. We review the ongoing and future research into DDR in pediatric tumors and the subsequent pediatric clinical trials that will be critical to further elucidate the efficacy of the approaches targeting DDR.

Abstract
DNA repair pathways play a critical role in genome stability, but in eukaryotic cells, they must operate to repair DNA lesions in the compact and tangled environment of chromatin. Previous studies have shown that the packaging of DNA into nucleosomes, which form the basic building block of chromatin, has a profound impact on DNA repair. In this review, we discuss the principles and mechanisms governing DNA repair in chromatin. We focus on the role of histone post-translational modifications (PTMs) in repair, as well as the molecular mechanisms by which histone mutants affect cellular sensitivity to DNA damage agents and repair activity in chromatin. Importantly, these mechanisms are thought to significantly impact somatic mutation rates in human cancers and potentially contribute to carcinogenesis and other human diseases. For example, a number of the histone mutants studied primarily in yeast have been identified as candidate oncohistone mutations in different cancers. This review highlights these connections and discusses the potential importance of DNA repair in chromatin to human health.

Abstract
Born as an endosymbiont, the bacteria engulfed by the proto-eukaryotic cell more than 1.45 billion years ago progressively evolved as an important organelle with multiple interactions with the host cell. In particular, strong connections between mitochondria and the chromosome ends, the telomeres, led to propose a new theory of ageing in which dysfunctional telomeres and mitochondria are the main actors of a vicious circle reducing cell fitness and promoting cellular ageing. We review the evidences that oxidative stress and dysfunctional mitochondria damage telomeres and further discuss the interrelationship between telomere biology and mitochondria through the lens of telomerase which shuttles between the nucleus and mitochondria. Finally, we elaborate on the possible role of the mitochondrial genome on the inheritance of human telomere length through the expression of mitochondrial gene variants.

Abstract
Cancer is a disease with a high mortality rate characterized by uncontrolled proliferation of abnormal cells. The hallmarks of cancer evidence the acquired cells characteristics that promote the growth of malignant tumours, including genomic instability and mutations, the ability to evade cellular death and the capacity of sustaining proliferative signalization. Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP1) is a protein that plays key roles in cellular regulation, namely in DNA damage repair and cell survival. The inhibition of PARP1 promotes cellular death in cells with homologous recombination deficiency, and therefore, the interest in PARP protein has been rising as a target for anticancer therapies. There are already some PARP1 inhibitors approved by Food and Drug Administration (FDA), such as Olaparib and Niraparib. The last compound presents in its structure an indazole core. In fact, pyrazoles and indazoles have been raising interest due to their various medicinal properties, namely, anticancer activity. Derivatives of these compounds have been studied as inhibitors of PARP1 and presented promising results. Therefore, this review aims to address the importance of PARP1 in cell regulation and its role in cancer. Moreover, it intends to report a comprehensive literature review of PARP1 inhibitors, containing the pyrazole and indazole scaffolds, published in the last fifteen years, focusing on structure-activity relationship aspects, thus providing important insights for the design of novel and more effective PARP1 inhibitors.

Abstract
Cells are constantly exposed to various sources of DNA damage that pose a threat to their genomic integrity. One of the most common types of DNA breaks are single-strand breaks (SSBs). Mutations in the repair proteins that are important for repairing SSBs have been reported in several neurological disorders. While several tools have been utilised to investigate SSBs in cells, it was only through recent advances in genomics that we are now beginning to understand the architecture of the non-random distribution of SSBs and their impact on key cellular processes such as transcription and epigenetic remodelling. Here, we discuss our current understanding of the genome-wide distribution of SSBs, their link to neurological disorders and summarise recent technologies to investigate SSBs at the genomic level.

Abstract
The chromatin remodeler ALC1 is activated by DNA damage-induced poly(ADP-ribose) deposited by PARP1/PARP2 and their co-factor HPF1. ALC1 has emerged as a cancer drug target, but how it is recruited to ADP-ribosylated nucleosomes to affect their positioning near DNA breaks is unknown. Here we find that PARP1/HPF1 preferentially initiates ADP-ribosylation on the histone H2B tail closest to the DNA break. To dissect the consequences of such asymmetry, we generate nucleosomes with a defined ADP-ribosylated H2B tail on one side only. The cryo-electron microscopy structure of ALC1 bound to such an asymmetric nucleosome indicates preferential engagement on one side. Using single-molecule FRET, we demonstrate that this asymmetric recruitment gives rise to directed sliding away from the DNA linker closest to the ADP-ribosylation site. Our data suggest a mechanism by which ALC1 slides nucleosomes away from a DNA break to render it more accessible to repair factors.

Abstract
Cervical cancer (CaCx) is the deadliest malignancy among women which is caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) and anthro-demographical/clinicopathological factors. HPV oncoproteins E6 and E7 target p53 and RB (retinoblastoma) protein degradation, Ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM), ATM-RAD3-related (ATR) inactivation and subsequent impairment of non-homologous end joining (NHEJ), homologous recombination, and base excision repair pathways. There is also an accumulation of genetic and epigenetic alterations in Tumor Growth Suppressors (TGS), oncogenes, and DNA repair genes leading to increased genome instability and CaCx development. These alterations might be responsible for differential clinical response to Cisplatin-based chemoradiotherapy (CRT) in patients. This review explores HPV-mediated DNA damage as a risk factor in CaCx development, the mechanistic role of genetic and epigenetic alterations in DNA repair genes and their association with CRT and outcome, It also explores new possibilities for the development of genetic and epigenetic-based biomarkers for diagnostic, prognostic, and molecular therapeutic interventions.

Abstract
Nucleosomes, the basic structural units of chromatin, hinder recruitment and activity of various DNA repair proteins, necessitating modifications that enhance DNA accessibility. Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation (PARylation) of proteins near damage sites is an essential initiation step in several DNA-repair pathways; however, its effects on nucleosome structural dynamics and organization are unclear. Using NMR, cryoelectron microscopy (cryo-EM), and biochemical assays, we show that PARylation enhances motions of the histone H3 tail and DNA, leaving the configuration of the core intact while also stimulating nuclease digestion and ligation of nicked nucleosomal DNA by LIG3. PARylation disrupted interactions between nucleosomes, preventing self-association. Addition of LIG3 and XRCC1 to PARylated nucleosomes generated condensates that selectively partition DNA repair-associated proteins in a PAR- and phosphorylation-dependent manner in vitro. Our results establish that PARylation influences nucleosomes across different length scales, extending from the atom-level motions of histone tails to the mesoscale formation of condensates with selective compositions.

Abstract
PARP inhibitors (PARPi) are a kind of cancer therapy that targets poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase. PARPi is the first clinically approved drug to exert synthetic lethality by obstructing the DNA single-strand break repair process. Despite the significant therapeutic effect in patients with homologous recombination (HR) repair deficiency, innate and acquired resistance to PARPi is a main challenge in the clinic. In this review, we mainly discussed the underlying mechanisms of PARPi resistance and summarized the promising solutions to overcome PARPi resistance, aiming at extending PARPi application and improving patient outcomes.

Targeted nuclear irradiation with a proton microbeam induces oxidative DNA base damage and triggers the recruitment of DNA glycosylases OGG1 and NTH1. DNA Repair (Amst) 2024; 133:103610.

Abstract
DNA is the major target of radiation therapy of malignant tumors. Ionizing radiation (IR) induces a variety of DNA lesions, including chemically modified bases and strand breaks. The use of proton beam therapy for cancer treatment is ramping up, as it is expected to reduce normal tissue damage. Thus, it is important to understand the molecular mechanisms of recognition, signaling, and repair of DNA damage induced by protons in the perspective of assessing not only the risk associated with human exposure to IR but also the possibility to improve the efficacy of therapy. Here, we used targeted irradiation of nuclear regions of living cells with controlled number of protons at a high spatio-temporal resolution to detect the induced base lesions and characterize the recruitment kinetics of the specific DNA glycosylases to DNA damage sites. We show that localized irradiation with 4 MeV protons induces, in addition to DNA double strand breaks (DSBs), the oxidized bases 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG) and thymine glycol (TG) at the site of irradiation. Consistently, the DNA glycosylases OGG1 and NTH1, capable of excising 8-oxoG and TG, respectively, and initiating the base excision repair (BER) pathway, are recruited to the site of damage. To our knowledge, this is the first direct evidence indicating that proton microbeams induce oxidative base damage, and thus implicating BER in the repair of DNA lesions induced by protons.

Abstract
Protein poly-ADP-ribosylation (PARylation) is a post-translational modification formed by transfer of successive units of ADP-ribose to target proteins to form poly-ADP-ribose (PAR) chains. PAR plays a critical role in the DNA damage response (DDR) by acting as a signaling platform to promote the recruitment of DNA repair factors to the sites of DNA damage that bind via their PAR-binding domains (PBDs). Several classes of PBD families have been recognized, which identify distinct parts of the PAR chain. Proteins encoding PBDs play an essential role in conveying the PAR-mediated signal through their interaction with PAR chains, which mediates many cellular functions, including the DDR. The WWE domain identifies the iso-ADP-ribose moiety of the PAR chain. We recently described the WWE domain of RNF146 as a robust genetically encoded probe, when fused to EGFP, for detection of PAR in live cells. Here, we evaluated other PBD candidates as molecular PAR probes in live cells, including several other WWE domains and an engineered macrodomain. In addition, we demonstrate unique PAR dynamics when tracked by different PAR binding domains, a finding that that can be exploited for modulation of the PAR-dependent DNA damage response.

Abstract
Vascular aging is a major risk factor for age-related cardiovascular diseases, which have high rates of morbidity and mortality. It is characterized by changes in the blood vessels, such as macroscopically increased vascular diameter and intima-medial thickness, chronic inflammation, vascular calcification, arterial stiffening, and atherosclerosis. DNA damage and the subsequent various DNA damage response (DDR) pathways are important causative factors of vascular aging. Deficient DDR, which may result in the accumulation of unrepaired damaged DNA or mutations, can lead to vascular aging. On the other hand, over-activation of some DDR proteins, such as poly (ADP ribose) polymerase (PARP) and ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM), also can enhance the process of vascular aging, suggesting that DDR can have both positive and negative effects on vascular aging. Despite the evidence reviewed in this paper, the role of DDR in vascular aging and potential therapeutic targets remain poorly understood and require further investigation.

Cytosine-phosphate-guanine oligodeoxynucleotides alleviate radiation-induced kidney injury in cervical cancer by inhibiting DNA damage and oxidative stress through blockade of PARP1/XRCC1 axis. J Transl Med 2023; 21:679. [PMID: 37773127 PMCID: PMC10541701 DOI: 10.1186/s12967-023-04548-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2023] [Accepted: 09/20/2023] [Indexed: 09/30/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Radiotherapy can cause kidney injury in patients with cervical cancer. This study aims to investigate the possible molecular mechanisms by which CpG-ODNs (Cytosine phosphate guanine-oligodeoxynucleotides) regulate the PARP1 (poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase 1)/XRCC1 (X-ray repair cross-complementing 1) signaling axis and its impact on radiation kidney injury (RKI) in cervical cancer radiotherapy. METHODS The GSE90627 dataset related to cervical cancer RKI was obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Bioinformatics databases and R software packages were used to analyze the target genes regulated by CpG-ODNs. A mouse model of RKI was established by subjecting C57BL/6JNifdc mice to X-ray irradiation. Serum blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine levels were measured using an automated biochemical analyzer. Renal tissue morphology was observed through HE staining, while TUNEL staining was performed to detect apoptosis in renal tubular cells. ELISA was conducted to measure levels of oxidative stress-related factors in mouse serum and cell supernatant. An in vitro cell model of RKI was established using X-ray irradiation on HK-2 cells for mechanism validation. RT-qPCR was performed to determine the relative expression of PARP1 mRNA. Cell proliferation activity was assessed using the CCK-8 assay, and Caspase 3 activity was measured in HK-2 cells. Immunofluorescence was used to determine γH2AX expression. RESULTS Bioinformatics analysis revealed that the downstream targets regulated by CpG-ODNs in cervical cancer RKI were primarily PARP1 and XRCC1. CpG-ODNs may alleviate RKI by inhibiting DNA damage and oxidative stress levels. This resulted in significantly decreased levels of BUN and creatinine in RKI mice, as well as reduced renal tubular and glomerular damage, lower apoptosis rate, decreased DNA damage index (8-OHdG), and increased levels of antioxidant factors associated with oxidative stress (SOD, CAT, GSH, GPx). Among the CpG-ODNs, CpG-ODN2006 had a more pronounced effect. CpG-ODNs mediated the inhibition of PARP1, thereby suppressing DNA damage and oxidative stress response in vitro in HK-2 cells. Additionally, PARP1 promoted the formation of the PARP1 and XRCC1 complex by recruiting XRCC1, which in turn facilitated DNA damage and oxidative stress response in renal tubular cells. Overexpression of either PARP1 or XRCC1 reversed the inhibitory effects of CpG-ODN2006 on DNA damage and oxidative stress in the HK-2 cell model and RKI mouse model. CONCLUSION CpG-ODNs may mitigate cervical cancer RKI by blocking the activation of the PARP1/XRCC1 signaling axis, inhibiting DNA damage and oxidative stress response in renal tubule epithelial cells.

Abstract
Laser microirradiation coupled with live-cell fluorescence microscopy is a powerful technique that has been used widely in studying the recruitment and retention of proteins at sites of DNA damage. Results obtained from this technique can be found in published works by both seasoned and infrequent users of microscopy. However, like many other microscopy-based techniques, the presentation of data from laser microirradiation experiments is inconsistent; papers report a wide assortment of analytic techniques, not all of which result in accurate and/or appropriate representation of the data. In addition to the varied methods of analysis, experimental and analytical details are commonly under-reported. Consequently, publications reporting data from laser microirradiation coupled with fluorescence microscopy experiments need to be carefully and critically assessed by readers. Here, we undertake a systematic investigation of commonly reported corrections used in the analysis of laser microirradiation data. We validate the critical need to correct data for photobleaching and we identify key experimental parameters that must be accounted for when presenting data from laser microirradiation experiments. Furthermore, we propose a straightforward, four-step analytical protocol that can readily be applied across platforms and that aims to improve the quality of data reporting in the DNA damage field.

Abstract
PARPi, in combination with ionizing radiation, has demonstrated the ability to enhance cellular radiosensitivity in different tumors. The rationale is that the exposure to radiation leads to both physical and biochemical damage to DNA, prompting cells to initiate three primary mechanisms for DNA repair. Two double-stranded DNA breaks (DSB) repair pathways: (1) non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ) and (2) homologous recombination (HR); and (3) a single-stranded DNA break (SSB) repair pathway (base excision repair, BER). In this scenario, PARPi can serve as radiosensitizers by leveraging the BER pathway. This mechanism heightens the likelihood of replication forks collapsing, consequently leading to the formation of persistent DSBs. Together, the combination of PARPi and radiotherapy is a potent oncological strategy. This combination has proven its efficacy in different tumors. However, in prostate cancer, there are only preclinical studies to support it and, recently, an ongoing clinical trial. The objective of this paper is to perform a review of the current evidence regarding the use of PARPi and radiotherapy (RT) in PCa and to give future insight on this topic.

Abstract
ADP-ribosylation is a post-translational modification involved in DNA damage response (DDR). In higher organisms it is synthesised by PARP 1-3, DNA strand break sensors. Recent advances have identified serine residues as the most common targets for ADP-ribosylation during DDR. To ADP-ribosylate serine, PARPs require an accessory factor, HPF1 which completes the catalytic domain. Through ADP-ribosylation, PARPs recruit a variety of factors to the break site and control their activities. However, the timely removal of ADP-ribosylation is also key for genome stability and is mostly performed by two hydrolases: PARG and ARH3. Here, we describe the key writers, readers and erasers of ADP-ribosylation and their contribution to the mounting of the DDR. We also discuss the use of PARP inhibitors in cancer therapy and the ways to tackle PARPi treatment resistance.

Abstract
The DNA damage response (DDR) ensures error-free DNA replication and transcription and is disrupted in numerous diseases. An ongoing challenge is to determine the proteins orchestrating DDR and their organization into complexes, including constitutive interactions and those responding to genomic insult. Here, we use multi-conditional network analysis to systematically map DDR assemblies at multiple scales. Affinity purifications of 21 DDR proteins, with/without genotoxin exposure, are combined with multi-omics data to reveal a hierarchical organization of 605 proteins into 109 assemblies. The map captures canonical repair mechanisms and proposes new DDR-associated proteins extending to stress, transport, and chromatin functions. We find that protein assemblies closely align with genetic dependencies in processing specific genotoxins and that proteins in multiple assemblies typically act in multiple genotoxin responses. Follow-up by DDR functional readouts newly implicates 12 assembly members in double-strand-break repair. The DNA damage response assemblies map is available for interactive visualization and query (ccmi.org/ddram/).

Abstract
Background: Since its discovery, poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1) has been extensively studied due to its regulatory role in numerous biologically crucial pathways. PARP inhibitors have opened new therapeutic avenues for cancer patients and have gained approval as standalone treatments for certain types of cancer. With continued advancements in the research of PARP inhibitors, we can fully realize their potential as therapeutic targets for various diseases. Purpose: To assess the current understanding of PARP-1 mechanisms in radioprotection and radiotherapy based on the literature. Methods: We searched the PubMed database and summarized information on PARP inhibitors, the interaction of PARP-1 with DNA, and the relationships between PARP-1 and p53/ROS, NF-κB/DNA-PK, and caspase3/AIF, respectively. Results: The enzyme PARP-1 plays a crucial role in repairing DNA damage and modifying proteins. Cells exposed to radiation can experience DNA damage, such as single-, intra-, or inter-strand damage. This damage, associated with replication fork stagnation, triggers DNA repair mechanisms, including those involving PARP-1. The activity of PARP-1 increases 500-fold on DNA binding. Studies on PARP-1-knockdown mice have shown that the protein regulates the response to radiation. A lack of PARP-1 also increases the organism's sensitivity to radiation injury. PARP-1 has been found positively or negatively regulate the expression of specific genes through its modulation of key transcription factors and other molecules, including NF-κB, p53, Caspase 3, reactive oxygen species (ROS), and apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF). Conclusion: This review provides a comprehensive analysis of the physiological and pathological roles of PARP-1 and examines the impact of PARP-1 inhibitors under conditions of ionizing radiation exposure. The review also emphasizes the challenges and opportunities for developing PARP-1 inhibitors to improve the clinical outcomes of ionizing radiation damage.

Temporal recruitment of base excision DNA repair factors in living cells in response to different micro-irradiation DNA damage protocols. DNA Repair (Amst) 2023; 126:103486. [PMID: 37028218 PMCID: PMC10133186 DOI: 10.1016/j.dnarep.2023.103486] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2022] [Revised: 03/07/2023] [Accepted: 03/20/2023] [Indexed: 04/09/2023]
Abstract
Laser micro-irradiation across the nucleus rapidly generates localized chromatin-associated DNA lesions permitting analysis of repair protein recruitment in living cells. Recruitment of three fluorescently-tagged base excision repair factors [DNA polymerase β (pol β), XRCC1 and PARP1], known to interact with one another, was compared in gene-deleted mouse embryonic fibroblasts and in those expressing the endogenous factor. A low energy micro-irradiation (LEMI) forming direct single-strand breaks and a moderate energy (MEMI) protocol that additionally creates oxidized bases were compared. Quantitative characterization of repair factor recruitment and sensitivity to clinical PARP inhibitors (PARPi) was dependent on the micro-irradiation protocol. PARP1 recruitment was biphasic and generally occurred prior to pol β and XRCC1. After LEMI, but not after MEMI, pol β and XRCC1 recruitment was abolished by the PARPi veliparib. Consistent with this, pol β and XRCC1 recruitment following LEMI was considerably slower in PARP1-deficient cells. Surprisingly, the recruitment half-times and amplitudes for pol β were less affected by PARPi than were XRCC1 after MEMI suggesting there is a XRCC1-independent component for pol β recruitment. After LEMI, but not MEMI, pol β dissociation was more rapid than that of XRCC1. Unexpectedly, PARP1 dissociation was slowed in the absence of XRCC1 as well with a PARPi after LEMI but not MEMI, suggesting that XRCC1 facilitates PARP1 dissociation from specific DNA lesions. XRCC1-deficient cells showed pronounced hypersensitivity to the PARPi talazoparib correlating with its known cytotoxic PARP1 trapping activity. In contrast to DNA methylating agents, PARPi only minimally sensitized pol β and XRCC1-deficient cells to oxidative DNA damage suggesting differential binding of PARP1 to alternate repair intermediates. In summary, pol β, XRCC1, and PARP1 display recruitment kinetics that exhibit correlated and unique properties that depend on the DNA lesion and PARP activity revealing that there are multiple avenues utilized in the repair of chromatin-associated DNA.

Polβ/XRCC1 heterodimerization dictates DNA damage recognition and basal Polβ protein levels without interfering with mouse viability or fertility. DNA Repair (Amst) 2023; 123:103452. [PMID: 36702010 PMCID: PMC9992099 DOI: 10.1016/j.dnarep.2023.103452] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2022] [Revised: 12/07/2022] [Accepted: 01/17/2023] [Indexed: 01/22/2023]
Abstract
DNA Polymerase β (Polβ) performs two critical enzymatic steps during base excision repair (BER) - gap filling (nucleotidyl transferase activity) and gap tailoring (dRP lyase activity). X-ray repair cross complementing 1 (XRCC1) facilitates the recruitment of Polβ to sites of DNA damage through an evolutionarily conserved Polβ/XRCC1 interaction interface, the V303 loop. While previous work describes the importance of the Polβ/XRCC1 interaction for human Polβ protein stability and recruitment to sites of DNA damage, the impact of disrupting the Polβ/XRCC1 interface on animal viability, physiology, and fertility is unknown. Here, we characterized the effect of disrupting Polβ/XRCC1 heterodimerization in mice and mouse cells by complimentary approaches. First, we demonstrate, via laser micro-irradiation, that mouse Polβ amino acid residues L301 and V303 are critical to facilitating Polβ recruitment to sites of DNA damage. Next, we solved the crystal structures of mouse wild type Polβ and a mutant protein harboring alterations in residues L301 and V303 (L301R/V303R). Our structural analyses suggest that Polβ amino acid residue V303 plays a role in maintaining an interaction with the oxidized form of XRCC1. Finally, we created CRISPR/Cas9-modified Polb mice with homozygous L301R/V303R mutations (PolbL301R-V303R/L301R-V303R) that are fertile yet exhibit 15% reduced body weight at 17 weeks of age, as compared to heterozygous mice. Fibroblasts derived from PolbL301R-V303R/L301R-V303R mice demonstrate that mutation of mouse Polβ's XRCC1 interaction domain leads to an ∼85% decrease in Polβ protein levels. In all, these studies are consistent with a role for the oxidized form of XRCC1 in providing stability to the Polβ protein through Polβ/XRCC1 heterodimer formation.

Abstract
The role of sex steroid hormones (SSHs) has been shown to modulate cancer cytotoxic treatment sensitivity. Dysregulation of DNA repair associated with genomic instability, abnormal cell survival and not only promotes cancer progression but also resistance to cancer treatment. The three major SSHs, androgen, estrogen, and progesterone, have been shown to interact with several essential DNA repair components. The presence of androgens directly regulates key molecules in DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair. Estrogen can promote cell proliferation and DNA repair, allowing cancer cells to tolerate chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Information on the role of progesterone in DNA repair is limited: progesterone interaction with some DNA repair components has been identified, but the biological significance is still unknown. Here, we review the roles of how each SSH affects DNA repair regulation and modulates response to genotoxic therapies and discuss future research that can be beneficial when combining SSHs with cancer therapy. We also provide preliminary analysis from publicly available databases defining the link between progesterone/PR and DDRs & DNA repair regulation that plausibly contribute to chemotherapy response and breast cancer patient survival.

Radiotherapy, PARP Inhibition, and Immune-Checkpoint Blockade: A Triad to Overcome the Double-Edged Effects of Each Single Player. Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:cancers15041093.

Abstract
Radiotherapy and, more recently, PARP inhibitors (PARPis) and immune-checkpoint inhibitors represent effective tools in cancer therapy. Radiotherapy exerts its effects not only by damaging DNA and inducing tumor cell death, but also stimulating anti-tumor immune responses. PARPis are known to exert their therapeutic effects by inhibiting DNA repair, and they may be used in combination with radiotherapy. Both radiotherapy and PARPis modulate inflammatory signals and stimulate type I IFN (IFN-I)-dependent immune activation. However, they can also support the development of an immunosuppressive tumor environment and upregulate PD-L1 expression on tumor cells. When provided as monotherapy, immune-checkpoint inhibitors (mainly antibodies to CTLA-4 and the PD-1/PD-L1 axis) result particularly effective only in immunogenic tumors. Combinations of immunotherapy with therapies that favor priming of the immune response to tumor-associated antigens are, therefore, suitable strategies. The widely explored association of radiotherapy and immunotherapy has confirmed this benefit for several cancers. Association with PARPis has also been investigated in clinical trials. Immunotherapy counteracts the immunosuppressive effects of radiotherapy and/or PARPis and synergies with their immunological effects, promoting and unleashing immune responses toward primary and metastatic lesions (abscopal effect). Here, we discuss the beneficial and counterproductive effects of each therapy and how they can synergize to overcome single-therapy limitations.

Abstract
c-MYC proto-oncogene harbors a putative G-quadruplex structure (Pu27) at the NHEIII1 domain, which can shuffle between transcriptional inhibitor quadruplex and transcriptionally active duplex. In cancer cells this quadruplex destabilization is preferred and NHEIII1 domain assume a duplex topology thereby inducing c-MYC overexpression and tumorigenesis. Hence, the c-MYC quadruplex acts as an excellent target for anti-cancer therapy. Though researcher have tried to develop G-quadruplex targeted small molecules, work with G-quadruplex targeting peptides is very limited. Here we present a peptide that can bind to c-MYC quadruplex, destabilize the tetrad core, and permit the formation of a substantially different structure from the quartet core seen in the canonical G-quadruplexes. Such conformation potentially acted as a roadblock for transcription factors thereby reducing cMYC expression. This event sensitizes the cancer cell to activate apoptotic cascade via the c-MYC-VEGF-A-BCL2 axis. This study provides a detailed insight into the peptide-quadruplex interface that encourages better pharmacophore design to target dynamic quadruplex structure. We believe that our results will contribute to the development, characterization, and optimization of G-quadruplex binding peptides for potential clinical application.

Abstract
Introduction Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) is a nuclear enzyme involved in the repair of DNA single-strand breaks (SSB). The recent development of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPi) results from over 45 years of studies. When the activity of PARP1 or PARP2 is compromised, DNA SSB lesions are unresolved and can be converted to DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) by the cellular transcription mechanisms. ARID1A (also called BAF250a) is an important component of the mammalian Switch/Sucrose Non-Fermentable (SWI/SNF) chromatin-remodeling complex. ARID1A gene demonstrates >50% of mutation rate in ovarian clear-cell carcinomas (OCCC). Mutated or downregulated ARID1A significantly compromises the Homologous Recombination Repair (HRR) of DNA DSB. Results The present study demonstrated that downregulated or mutated ARID1A attenuates DNA HRR through stimulation of the PI3K/Akt1 pathway and makes tumor cells highly sensitive to PARPi and PARPi/ionizing radiation (IR) combination. We showed that PI3K/Akt1 pathway plays an important role in the sensitization of cancer cell lines with compromised function of ARID1A to PARPi treatment. Discussion We believe that using of PARPi monotherapy or in combination with radiation therapy is an appealing strategy for treating ARID1A-mutated cancers, as well as many other types of PI3K/Akt1-driven cancers.

Abstract
Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors (PARPi) function by inhibiting base excision repair and inducing synthetic lethality in homologous recombination repair-deficient cells, such as BRCA1/2-mutated cancer cells. The BCR/ABL1 fusion protein causes dysregulated cell proliferation and is responsible for chronic myelogenous leukemia and Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph+ALL). BCR/ABL1 also induces genomic instability by downregulating BRCA1. We investigated the effect of the PARPi, olaparib, against Ph+ALL cell lines and found that they show variable sensitivity, presumably due to cancer-associated genetic alterations other than BCR/ABL1. To investigate the reasons for the variable responses of Ph+ALL cells to PARPi treatment, we analyzed the transcriptomes of olaparib-sensitive and -resistant Ph+ALL cell lines, which revealed that activation of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway was a hallmark of PARPi resistance. Based on these findings, we examined the effects of adding a PI3K inhibitor (PI3Ki) to PARPi treatment to overcome PARPi insensitivity in Ph+ALL cell lines. Combination with PI3Ki increased PARPi cytotoxicity in PARPi-resistant Ph+ALL cell lines. Tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy is the gold standard for Ph+ALL, and, based on our findings, we propose that PARPi combined with TKI and PI3K inhibition could be a novel therapeutic strategy for Ph+ALL.

Abstract
UV-DDB is a DNA damage recognition protein recently discovered to participate in the removal of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxoG) by stimulating multiple steps of base excision repair (BER). In this study, we examined whether UV-DDB has a wider role in BER besides oxidized bases and found it has specificity for two known DNA substrates of alkyladenine glycosylase (AAG)/N-methylpurine DNA glycosylase (MPG): 1, N6-ethenoadenine (ϵA) and hypoxanthine. Gel mobility shift assays show that UV-DDB recognizes these two lesions 4-5 times better than non-damaged DNA. Biochemical studies indicated that UV-DDB stimulated AAG activity on both substrates by 4- to 5-fold. Native gels indicated UV-DDB forms a transient complex with AAG to help facilitate release of AAG from the abasic site product. Single molecule experiments confirmed the interaction and showed that UV-DDB can act to displace AAG from abasic sites. Cells when treated with methyl methanesulfonate resulted in foci containing AAG and UV-DDB that developed over the course of several hours after treatment. While colocalization did not reach 100%, foci containing AAG and UV-DDB reached a maximum at three hours post treatment. Together these data indicate that UV-DDB plays an important role in facilitating the repair of AAG substrates.

Abstract
DNA damage response (DDR) deficiencies result in genome instability, which is one of the hallmarks of cancer. Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) enzymes take part in various DDR pathways, determining cell fate in the wake of DNA damage. PARPs are readily druggable and PARP inhibitors (PARPi) against the main DDR-associated PARPs, PARP1 and PARP2, are currently approved for the treatment of a range of tumor types. Inhibition of efficient PARP1/2-dependent DDR is fatal for tumor cells with homologous recombination deficiencies (HRD), especially defects in breast cancer type 1 susceptibility protein 1 or 2 (BRCA1/2)-dependent pathway, while allowing healthy cells to survive. Moreover, PARPi indirectly influence the tumor microenvironment by increasing genomic instability, immune pathway activation and PD-L1 expression on cancer cells. For this reason, PARPi might enhance sensitivity to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), such as anti-PD-(L)1 or anti-CTLA4, providing a rationale for PARPi-ICI combination therapies. In this review, we discuss the complex background of the different roles of PARP1/2 in the cell and summarize the basics of how PARPi work from bench to bedside. Furthermore, we detail the early data of ongoing clinical trials indicating the synergistic effect of PARPi and ICIs. We also introduce the diagnostic tools for therapy development and discuss the future perspectives and limitations of this approach.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) polymerase inhibitors (PARPi) either have been approved or being tested in the clinic for the treatment of a variety of cancers with homologous recombination deficiency (HRD). However, cancer cells can develop resistance to PARPi drugs through various mechanisms, and new biomarkers and combination therapeutic strategies need to be developed to support personalized treatment. In this study, a genome-wide CRISPR screen was performed in a prostate cancer cell line with 3D culture condition which identified novel signals involved in DNA repair pathways. One of these genes, TBL1XR1, regulates sensitivity to PARPi in prostate cancer cells. Mechanistically, we show that TBL1XR1 interacts with and stabilizes SMC3 on chromatin and promotes γH2AX spreading along the chromatin of the cells under DNA replication stress. TBL1XR1-SMC3 double knockdown (knockout) cells have comparable sensitivity to PARPi compared to SMC3 knockdown or TBL1XR1 knockout cells, and more sensitivity than WT cells. Our findings provide new insights into mechanisms underlying response to PARPi or platin compounds in the treatment of malignancies.

Li C, Xue Y, Ba X, Wang R. The Role of 8-oxoG Repair Systems in Tumorigenesis and Cancer Therapy. Cells 2022; 11:cells11233798. [PMID: 36497058 PMCID: PMC9735852 DOI: 10.3390/cells11233798] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/30/2022] [Revised: 11/09/2022] [Accepted: 11/25/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Tumorigenesis is highly correlated with the accumulation of mutations. The abundant and extensive DNA oxidation product, 8-Oxoguanine (8-oxoG), can cause mutations if it is not repaired by 8-oxoG repair systems. Therefore, the accumulation of 8-oxoG plays an essential role in tumorigenesis. To avoid the accumulation of 8-oxoG in the genome, base excision repair (BER), initiated by 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase1 (OGG1), is responsible for the removal of genomic 8-oxoG. It has been proven that 8-oxoG levels are significantly elevated in cancer cells compared with cells of normal tissues, and the induction of DNA damage by some antitumor drugs involves direct or indirect interference with BER, especially through inducing the production and accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which can lead to tumor cell death. In addition, the absence of the core components of BER can result in embryonic or early post-natal lethality in mice. Therefore, targeting 8-oxoG repair systems with inhibitors is a promising avenue for tumor therapy. In this study, we summarize the impact of 8-oxoG accumulation on tumorigenesis and the current status of cancer therapy approaches exploiting 8-oxoG repair enzyme targeting, as well as possible synergistic lethality strategies involving exogenous ROS-inducing agents.

Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14225619. [PMID: 36428712 PMCID: PMC9688666 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14225619] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/07/2022] [Revised: 11/10/2022] [Accepted: 11/13/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
BMN673 is a relatively new PARP inhibitor (PARPi) that exhibits superior efficacy in vitro compared to olaparib and other clinically relevant PARPi. BMN673, similar to most clinical PARPi, inhibits the catalytic activities of PARP-1 and PARP-2 and shows impressive anticancer potential as monotherapy in several pre-clinical and clinical studies. Tumor resistance to PARPi poses a significant challenge in the clinic. Thus, combining PARPi with other treatment modalities, such as radiotherapy (RT), is being actively pursued to overcome such resistance. However, the modest to intermediate radiosensitization exerted by olaparib, rucaparib, and veliparib, limits the rationale and the scope of such combinations. The recently reported strong radiosensitizing potential of BMN673 forecasts a paradigm shift on this front. Evidence accumulates that BMN673 may radiosensitize via unique mechanisms causing profound shifts in the balance among DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair pathways. According to one of the emerging models, BMN673 strongly inhibits classical non-homologous end-joining (c-NHEJ) and increases reciprocally and profoundly DSB end-resection, enhancing error-prone DSB processing that robustly potentiates cell killing. In this review, we outline and summarize the work that helped to formulate this model of BMN673 action on DSB repair, analyze the causes of radiosensitization and discuss its potential as a radiosensitizer in the clinic. Finally, we highlight strategies for combining BMN673 with other inhibitors of DNA damage response for further improvements.

Sister chromatid exchanges induced by perturbed replication can form independently of BRCA1, BRCA2 and RAD51. Nat Commun 2022; 13:6722.

Abstract
Sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs) are products of joint DNA molecule resolution, and are considered to form through homologous recombination (HR). Indeed, SCE induction upon irradiation requires the canonical HR factors BRCA1, BRCA2 and RAD51. In contrast, replication-blocking agents, including PARP inhibitors, induce SCEs independently of BRCA1, BRCA2 and RAD51. PARP inhibitor-induced SCEs are enriched at difficult-to-replicate genomic regions, including common fragile sites (CFSs). PARP inhibitor-induced replication lesions are transmitted into mitosis, suggesting that SCEs can originate from mitotic processing of under-replicated DNA. Proteomics analysis reveals mitotic recruitment of DNA polymerase theta (POLQ) to synthetic DNA ends. POLQ inactivation results in reduced SCE numbers and severe chromosome fragmentation upon PARP inhibition in HR-deficient cells. Accordingly, analysis of CFSs in cancer genomes reveals frequent allelic deletions, flanked by signatures of POLQ-mediated repair. Combined, we show PARP inhibition generates under-replicated DNA, which is processed into SCEs during mitosis, independently of canonical HR factors.

Abstract
High-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC) is a genomically unstable malignancy responsible for over 70% of all deaths due to ovarian cancer. With roughly 50% of all HGSOC harboring defects in the homologous recombination (HR) DNA repair pathway (e.g., BRCA1/2 mutations), the introduction of poly ADP-ribose polymerase inhibitors (PARPi) has dramatically improved outcomes for women with HR defective HGSOC. By blocking the repair of single-stranded DNA damage in cancer cells already lacking high-fidelity HR pathways, PARPi causes the accumulation of double-stranded DNA breaks, leading to cell death. Thus, this synthetic lethality results in PARPi selectively targeting cancer cells, resulting in impressive efficacy. Despite this, resistance to PARPi commonly develops through diverse mechanisms, such as the acquisition of secondary BRCA1/2 mutations. Perhaps less well documented is that PARPi can impact both the tumour microenvironment and the immune response, through upregulation of the stimulator of interferon genes (STING) pathway, upregulation of immune checkpoints such as PD-L1, and by stimulating the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Whilst targeted immunotherapies have not yet found their place in the clinic for HGSOC, the evidence above, as well as ongoing studies exploring the synergistic effects of PARPi with immune agents, including immune checkpoint inhibitors, suggests potential for targeting the immune response in HGSOC. Additionally, combining PARPi with epigenetic-modulating drugs may improve PARPi efficacy, by inducing a BRCA-defective phenotype to sensitise resistant cancer cells to PARPi. Finally, invigorating an immune response during PARPi therapy may engage anti-cancer immune responses that potentiate efficacy and mitigate the development of PARPi resistance. Here, we will review the emerging PARPi literature with a focus on PARPi effects on the immune response in HGSOC, as well as the potential of epigenetic combination therapies. We highlight the potential of transforming HGSOC from a lethal to a chronic disease and increasing the likelihood of cure.

Abstract
Oxidative genome damage is an unavoidable consequence of cellular metabolism. It arises at gene regulatory elements by epigenetic demethylation during transcriptional activation1,2. Here we show that promoters are protected from oxidative damage via a process mediated by the nuclear mitotic apparatus protein NuMA (also known as NUMA1). NuMA exhibits genomic occupancy approximately 100 bp around transcription start sites. It binds the initiating form of RNA polymerase II, pause-release factors and single-strand break repair (SSBR) components such as TDP1. The binding is increased on chromatin following oxidative damage, and TDP1 enrichment at damaged chromatin is facilitated by NuMA. Depletion of NuMA increases oxidative damage at promoters. NuMA promotes transcription by limiting the polyADP-ribosylation of RNA polymerase II, increasing its availability and release from pausing at promoters. Metabolic labelling of nascent RNA identifies genes that depend on NuMA for transcription including immediate-early response genes. Complementation of NuMA-deficient cells with a mutant that mediates binding to SSBR, or a mitotic separation-of-function mutant, restores SSBR defects. These findings underscore the importance of oxidative DNA damage repair at gene regulatory elements and describe a process that fulfils this function.

Abstract
Cells employ global genome nucleotide excision repair (GGR) to eliminate a broad spectrum of DNA lesions, including those induced by UV light. The lesion-recognition factor XPC initiates repair of helix-destabilizing DNA lesions, but binds poorly to lesions such as CPDs that do not destabilize DNA. How difficult-to-repair lesions are detected in chromatin is unknown. Here, we identify the poly-(ADP-ribose) polymerases PARP1 and PARP2 as constitutive interactors of XPC. Their interaction results in the XPC-stimulated synthesis of poly-(ADP-ribose) (PAR) by PARP1 at UV lesions, which in turn enables the recruitment and activation of the PAR-regulated chromatin remodeler ALC1. PARP2, on the other hand, modulates the retention of ALC1 at DNA damage sites. Notably, ALC1 mediates chromatin expansion at UV-induced DNA lesions, leading to the timely clearing of CPD lesions. Thus, we reveal how chromatin containing difficult-to-repair DNA lesions is primed for repair, providing insight into mechanisms of chromatin plasticity during GGR. Cells employ global genome nucleotide excision repair to repair a broad spectrum of genomic DNA lesions. Here, the authors reveal how chromatin is primed for repair, providing insight into mechanisms of chromatin plasticity during DNA repair.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) is a molecular scaffold that aids in the formation of DNA repair protein complexes. Tools to sensitively quantify PAR in live cells have been lacking. We recently described the LivePAR probe (EGFP fused to the RNF146-encoded WWE PAR binding domain) to measure PAR formation at sites of laser micro-irradiation in live cells. Here, we present two methods that expand on the use of LivePAR and its WWE domain. First, LivePAR enriches in the nucleus of cells following genotoxic challenge. Image quantitation can identify single-cell PAR formation following genotoxic stress at concentrations lower than PAR ELISA or PAR immunoblot, with greater sensitivity to genotoxic stress than CometChip. In a second approach, we used the RNF146-encoded WWE domain to develop a split luciferase probe for analysis in a 96-well plate assay. We then applied these PAR analysis tools to demonstrate their broad applicability. First, we show that both approaches can identify genetic modifications that alter PARylation levels, such as hyper-PARylation in BRCA2-deficient cancer cells. Second, we demonstrate the utility of the WWE split luciferase assay to characterize the cellular response of genotoxins, PARP inhibitors, and PARG inhibitors, thereby providing a screening method to identify PAR modulating compounds.

Abstract
Platinum resistance is a clinical challenge in ovarian cancer. Platinating agents induce DNA damage which activate Mre11 nuclease directed DNA damage signalling and response (DDR). Upregulation of DDR may promote chemotherapy resistance. Here we have comprehensively evaluated Mre11 in epithelial ovarian cancers. In clinical cohort that received platinum- based chemotherapy (n = 331), Mre11 protein overexpression was associated with aggressive phenotype and poor progression free survival (PFS) (p = 0.002). In the ovarian cancer genome atlas (TCGA) cohort (n = 498), Mre11 gene amplification was observed in a subset of serous tumours (5%) which correlated highly with Mre11 mRNA levels (p < 0.0001). Altered Mre11 levels was linked with genome wide alterations that can influence platinum sensitivity. At the transcriptomic level (n = 1259), Mre11 overexpression was associated with poor PFS (p = 0.003). ROC analysis showed an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.642 for response to platinum-based chemotherapy. Pre-clinically, Mre11 depletion by gene knock down or blockade by small molecule inhibitor (Mirin) reversed platinum resistance in ovarian cancer cells and in 3D spheroid models. Importantly, Mre11 inhibition was synthetically lethal in platinum sensitive XRCC1 deficient ovarian cancer cells and 3D-spheroids. Selective cytotoxicity was associated with DNA double strand break (DSB) accumulation, S-phase cell cycle arrest and increased apoptosis. We conclude that pharmaceutical development of Mre11 inhibitors is a viable clinical strategy for platinum sensitization and synthetic lethality in ovarian cancer.

[PMID: 35883597 PMCID: PMC9320633 DOI: 10.3390/cells11142149] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/15/2022] [Revised: 07/06/2022] [Accepted: 07/07/2022] [Indexed: 12/10/2022] Open
Abstract
AsiDNA is a DNA repair inhibitor mimicking DNA double-strand breaks (DSB) that was designed to disorganize DSB repair pathways to sensitize tumors to DNA damaging therapies such as radiotherapy and chemotherapy. We used the property of AsiDNA of triggering artificial DNA damage signaling to examine the activation of DSB repair pathways and to study the main steps of inhibition of DNA repair foci after irradiation. We show that, upon AsiDNA cellular uptake, cytoplasmic ATM and PARP are rapidly activated (within one hour) even in the absence of irradiation. ATM activation by AsiDNA leads to its transient autophosphorylation and sequestration in the cytoplasm, preventing the formation of ATM nuclear foci on irradiation-induced damage. In contrast, the activation of PARP did not seem to alter its ability to form DNA repair foci, but prevented 53BP1 and XRCC4 recruitment at the damage sites. In the nucleus, AsiDNA is essentially associated with DNA-PK, which triggers its activation leading to phosphorylation of H2AX all over chromatin. This pan-nuclear phosphorylation of H2AX correlates with the massive inhibition, at damage sites induced by irradiation, of the recruitment of repair enzymes involved in DSB repair by homologous recombination and nonhomologous end joining. These results highlight the interest in a new generation of DNA repair inhibitors targeting DNA damage signaling.

Abstract
PARP1 (aka ARTD1) acts as a prime sensor of cellular genotoxic stress response. PARP1 detects DNA strand breaks and subsequently catalyzes the formation of poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR), which leads to the recruitment of the scaffold protein XRCC1 during base excision and single strand break repair and the assembly of multi-protein complexes to promote DNA repair. Here, we reveal that the recruitment of either protein to sites of DNA damage is impeded in the absence of the other, indicating a strong reciprocal relationship between the two DNA repair factors during genotoxic stress response. We further analyzed several cellular and molecular endpoints in HeLa PARP1 KO, XRCC1 KO, and PARP1/XRCC1 double KO (DKO) cells after genotoxic treatments, i.e., PARylation response, NAD+ levels, clonogenic survival, cell cycle progression, cell death, and DNA repair. The analysis of NAD+ levels and cytotoxicity after treatment with the topoisomerase I inhibitor camptothecin revealed a hypersensitivity phenotype of XRCC1 KO cells compared to PARP1 KO cells-an effect that could be rescued by the additional genetic deletion of PARP1 as well as by pharmacological PARP inhibition. Moreover, impaired repair of hydrogen peroxide and CPT-induced DNA damage in XRCC1 KO cells could be partially rescued by additional deletion of PARP1. Our results therefore highlight important reciprocal regulatory functions of XRCC1 and PARP1 during genotoxic stress response.

Abstract
Protein methylation plays important roles in DNA damage response. To date, proteome-wide profiling of protein methylation upon DNA damage has been not reported yet. In this study, using HILIC affinity enrichment combined with MS analysis, we conducted a quantitative analysis of the methylated proteins in HEK293T cells in response to IR treatment. In total, 235 distinct methylation sites responding to IR treatment were identified, and 38% of them were previously unknown. Multiple RNA-binding proteins were differentially methylated upon DNA damage stress. Furthermore, we identified 14 novel methylation sites in DNA damage response-related proteins. Moreover, we validated the function of PARP1 K23 methylation in repairing IR-induced DNA lesions. K23 methylation deficiency sensitizes cancer cells to radiation and HU-induced replication stress. In addition, PARP1 K23 methylation participates in the resolution of stalled replication forks by regulating PARP1 binding to damaged forks. Taken together, this study generates a data resource for global protein methylation in response to IR-induced DNA damage and reveals a critical role of PARP1 K23 methylation in DNA repair.

Abstract
Simple Summary The increasingly wide use of PARP inhibitors in breast, ovarian, pancreatic, and prostate cancers harbouring a pathogenic variant in BRCA1 or BRCA2 has highlighted the problem of resistance to therapy. This review summarises the complex interactions between PARP1, cell cycle regulation, response to stress replication, homologous recombination, and other DNA damage repair pathways in the setting of BRCA1/2 mutated cancers that could explain the development of primary or secondary resistance to PARP inhibitors. Abstract PARP1 enzyme plays an important role in DNA damage recognition and signalling. PARP inhibitors are approved in breast, ovarian, pancreatic, and prostate cancers harbouring a pathogenic variant in BRCA1 or BRCA2, where PARP1 inhibition results mainly in synthetic lethality in cells with impaired homologous recombination. However, the increasingly wide use of PARP inhibitors in clinical practice has highlighted the problem of resistance to therapy. Several different mechanisms of resistance have been proposed, although only the acquisition of secondary mutations in BRCA1/2 has been clinically proved. The aim of this review is to outline the key molecular findings that could explain the development of primary or secondary resistance to PARP inhibitors, analysing the complex interactions between PARP1, cell cycle regulation, PI3K/AKT signalling, response to stress replication, homologous recombination, and other DNA damage repair pathways in the setting of BRCA1/2 mutated cancers.

Abstract
NAD+ is a versatile biomolecule acting as a master regulator and substrate in various cellular processes, including redox regulation, metabolism, and various signaling pathways. In this article, we concisely and critically review the role of NAD+ in mechanisms promoting genome maintenance. Numerous NAD+-dependent reactions are involved in the preservation of genome stability, the cellular DNA damage response, and other pathways regulating nucleic acid metabolism, such as gene expression and cell proliferation pathways. Of note, NAD+ serves as a substrate to ADP-ribosyltransferases, sirtuins, and potentially also eukaryotic DNA ligases, all of which regulate various aspects of DNA integrity, damage repair, and gene expression. Finally, we critically analyze recent developments in the field as well as discuss challenges associated with therapeutic actions intended to raise NAD+ levels.

Abstract
ADP-ribosylation is a well-established post-translational modification that is inherently connected to diverse processes, including DNA repair, transcription, and cell signaling. The crucial roles of mono-ADP-ribosyltransferases (mono-ARTs) in biological processes have been identified in recent years by the comprehensive use of genetic engineering, chemical genetics, and proteomics. This review provides an update on current methodological advances in the study of these modifiers. Furthermore, the review provides details on the function of mono ADP-ribosylation. Several mono-ARTs have been implicated in the development of cancer, and this review discusses the role and therapeutic potential of some mono-ARTs in cancer.

Abstract
Dual-inhibitors of PARP1 and PARP2 are promising anti-cancer drugs. In addition to blocking PARP1&2 enzymatic activity, PARP inhibitors also extend the lifetime of DNA damage-induced PARP1&2 foci, termed trapping. Trapping is important for the therapeutic effects of PARP inhibitors. Using live-cell imaging, we found that PARP inhibitors cause persistent PARP2 foci by switching the mode of PARP2 recruitment from a predominantly PARP1- and PAR-dependent rapid exchange to a WGR domain-mediated stalling of PARP2 on DNA. Specifically, PARP1-deletion markedly reduces but does not abolish PARP2 foci. The residual PARP2 foci in PARP1-deficient cells are DNA-dependent and abrogated by the R140A mutation in the WGR domain. Yet, PARP2-R140A forms normal foci in PARP1-proficient cells. In PARP1-deficient cells, PARP inhibitors - niraparib, talazoparib, and, to a lesser extent, olaparib - enhance PARP2 foci by preventing PARP2 exchange. This trapping of PARP2 is independent of auto-PARylation and is abolished by the R140A mutation in the WGR domain and the H415A mutation in the catalytic domain. Taken together, we found that PARP inhibitors trap PARP2 by physically stalling PARP2 on DNA via the WGR-DNA interaction while suppressing the PARP1- and PAR-dependent rapid exchange of PARP2.

TCDD-inducible Poly (ADP-ribose) Polymerase Promotes Adipogenesis of Both Brown and White Preadipocytes. J Transl Int Med 2022; 10:246-254.

Abstract
Background TCDD-inducible poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (TiPARP) is a DNA repair enzyme with functions in energy metabolism, signal transduction, cell differentiation, and other biological processes, which may closely related to lipid metabolism and is highly expressed in adipose tissue. Adipose tissue can be divided into white adipose tissue (WAT) that stores energy and brown adipose tissue (BAT) that releases energy and generates heat. In the present study, we investigated whether TiPARP can affect adipogenesis in adipose tissue and thus participate in the development of obesity. Methods BAT primary cells or 3T3-L1 cells infected with adenovirus expressing TiPARP or TiPARP-targeted short hairpin RNA (shTiPARP) were cultured to induce adipogenic differentiation. The expression of TiPARP was detected by real-time PCR and Western blotting. The expression of specific BAT- and WAT-related markers was detected by real-time PCR. The accumulation of lipid droplets in differentiated cells was detected by Oil Red O staining. Results TiPARP was highly expressed in both subcutaneous WAT and BAT, and TiPARP mRNA level increased significantly along with adipogenic differentiation. Activation of TiPARP or overexpression of TiPARP upregulated BAT-related markers in primary BAT cells and WAT-related markers in 3T3-L1 cells, together with increased lipid accumulation. On the contrary, knockdown of TiPARP downregulated expression of specific markers in both BAT primary cells and 3T3-L1 cells, together with decreased lipid accumulation. Conclusion TiPARP regulates adipogenesis in both BAT primary cells and 3T3-L1 cells and therefore plays an important role in modulating maturity and lipid accumulation in brown and white adipocytes. These findings provide us with a new strategy for combating obesity.

Abstract
ADP-ribosylation (ADPRylation) is a post-translational modification of proteins catalyzed by ADP-ribosyl transferase (ART) enzymes, including nuclear PARPs (e.g., PARP1 and PARP2). Historically, studies of ADPRylation and PARPs have focused on DNA damage responses in cancers, but more recent studies elucidate diverse roles in a broader array of biological processes. Here, we summarize the expanding array of molecular mechanisms underlying the biological functions of nuclear PARPs with a focus on PARP1, the founding member of the family. This includes roles in DNA repair, chromatin regulation, gene expression, ribosome biogenesis, and RNA biology. We also present new concepts in PARP1-dependent regulation, including PAR-dependent post-translational modifications, "ADPR spray," and PAR-mediated biomolecular condensate formation. Moreover, we review advances in the therapeutic mechanisms of PARP inhibitors (PARPi) as well as the progress on the mechanisms of PARPi resistance. Collectively, the recent progress in the field has yielded new insights into the expanding universe of PARP1-mediated molecular and therapeutic mechanisms in a variety of biological processes.

Abstract
Base excision repair (BER) removes damaged bases by generating single‐strand breaks (SSBs), gap‐filling by DNA polymerase β (POLβ), and resealing SSBs. A base‐damaging agent, methyl methanesulfonate (MMS) is widely used to study BER. BER increases cellular tolerance to MMS, anti‐cancer base‐damaging drugs, temozolomide, carmustine, and lomustine, and to clinical poly(ADP ribose)polymerase (PARP) poisons, olaparib and talazoparib. The poisons stabilize PARP1/SSB complexes, inhibiting access of BER factors to SSBs. PARP1 and XRCC1 collaboratively promote SSB resealing by recruiting POLβ to SSBs, but XRCC1−/− cells are much more sensitive to MMS than PARP1−/− cells. We recently report that the PARP1 loss in XRCC1−/− cells restores their MMS tolerance and conclude that XPCC1 facilitates the release of PARP1 from SSBs by maintaining its autoPARylation. We here show that the PARP1 loss in XRCC1−/− cells also restores their tolerance to the three anti‐cancer base‐damaging drugs, although they and MMS induce different sets of base damage. We reveal the synthetic lethality of the XRCC1−/− mutation, but not POLβ−/−, with olaparib and talazoparib, indicating that XRCC1 is a unique BER factor in suppressing toxic PARP1/SSB complex and can suppress even when PARP1 catalysis is inhibited. In conclusion, XRCC1 suppresses the PARP1/SSB complex via PARP1 catalysis‐dependent and independent mechanisms.
