Abstract
Malignancy is often associated with therapeutic resistance and metastasis, usually arising after therapeutic treatment. These include radio- and chemo-therapies, which cause cancer cell death by inducing DNA double strand breaks (DSBs). However, it is still unclear how resistance to these DSBs is induced and whether it can be suppressed. Here, we show that DSBs induced by camptothecin (CPT) and radiation jeopardize genome stability in surviving cancer cells, ultimately leading to the development of resistance. Further, we show that cytosolic DNA, accumulating as a consequence of genomic destabilization, leads to increased cGAS/STING-pathway activation and, ultimately, increased cell migration, a precursor of metastasis. Interestingly, these genomic destabilization-associated phenotypes were suppressed by the PARP inhibitor Olaparib. Recognition of DSBs by Rad51 and genomic destabilization were largely reduced by Olaparib, while the DNA damage response and cancer cell death were effectively increased. Thus, Olaparib decreases the risk of therapeutic resistance and cell migration of cells that survive radio- and CPT-treatments.

Microsatellite instability-related prognostic risk score (MSI-pRS) defines a subset of lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) patients with genomic instability and poor clinical outcome. Front Genet 2023; 14:1061002. [PMID: 36873930 PMCID: PMC9981642 DOI: 10.3389/fgene.2023.1061002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2022] [Accepted: 01/30/2023] [Indexed: 02/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) shares less typical onco-drivers and target resistance, but a high overall mutation rate and marked genomic complexity. Mismatch repair (MMR) deficiency leads to microsatellite instability (MSI) and genomic instability. MSI is not an ideal option for prognosis of LUSC, whereas its function deserves exploration. Method: MSI status was classified by MMR proteins using unsupervised clustering in the TCGA-LUSC dataset. The MSI score of each sample was determined by gene set variation analysis. Intersections of the differential expression genes and differential methylation probes were classified into functional modules by weighted gene co-expression network analysis. Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression and stepwise gene selection were performed for model downscaling. Results: Compared with the MSI-low (MSI-L) phenotype, MSI-high (MSI-H) displayed higher genomic instability. The MSI score was decreased from MSI-H to normal samples (MSI-H > MSI-L > normal). A total of 843 genes activated by hypomethylation and 430 genes silenced by hypermethylation in MSI-H tumors were classified into six functional modules. CCDC68, LYSMD1, RPS7, and CDK20 were used to construct MSI-related prognostic risk score (MSI-pRS). Low MSI-pRS was a protective prognostic factor in all cohorts (HR = 0.46, 0.47, 0.37; p-value = 7.57e-06, 0.009, 0.021). The model contains tumor stage, age, and MSI-pRS that showed good discrimination and calibration. Decision curve analyses indicated that microsatellite instability-related prognostic risk score added extra value to the prognosis. A low MSI-pRS was negatively correlated with genomic instability. LUSC with low MSI-pRS was associated with increased genomic instability and cold immunophenotype. Conclusion: MSI-pRS is a promising prognostic biomarker in LUSC as the substitute of MSI. Moreover, we first declared that LYSMD1 contributed to genomic instability of LUSC. Our findings provided new insights in the biomarker finder of LUSC.

Abstract
Generally, the number of single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) in somatic cells increases with age, which is expected for replication errors. The number of SNVs in cancer cells, however, is often much higher than that in somatic cells, raising the question of whether cancer cells possess SNV induction pathways. The present study shows that the number of SNVs in cancer cells correlates with the number of chromosomal structural variants (SVs). While Kataegis, localized hypermutations typically arising near SV sites, revealed multiple SNVs within 1 kb, SV-associated SNVs were generally observed within 0.1-1 Mb of SV sites, irrespective of Kataegis status. SNVs enriched within 1 Mb of SV regions were associated with deficiency of DNA damage repair, including HR deficiency-associated single base substitution 3 (SBS3) and exogenous damage-associated SBS7 and SBS36 signatures. We also observed a similar correlation between SVs and SNVs in cells that had undergone clonal evolution in association with genomic instability, implying an association between genomic instability and SV-associated induction of SNVs.

Abstract
Despite the ample improvements of CRC molecular landscape, the therapeutic options still rely on conventional chemotherapy-based regimens for early disease, and few targeted agents are recommended for clinical use in the metastatic setting. Moreover, the impact of cytotoxic, targeted agents, and immunotherapy combinations in the metastatic scenario is not fully satisfactory, especially the outcomes for patients who develop resistance to these treatments need to be improved. Here, we examine the opportunity to consider therapeutic agents targeting DNA repair and DNA replication stress response as strategies to exploit genetic or functional defects in the DNA damage response (DDR) pathways through synthetic lethal mechanisms, still not explored in CRC. These include the multiple actors involved in the repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) through homologous recombination (HR), classical non-homologous end joining (NHEJ), and microhomology-mediated end-joining (MMEJ), inhibitors of the base excision repair (BER) protein poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), as well as inhibitors of the DNA damage kinases ataxia-telangiectasia and Rad3 related (ATR), CHK1, WEE1, and ataxia-telangiectasia mutated (ATM). We also review the biomarkers that guide the use of these agents, and current clinical trials with targeted DDR therapies.

Abstract
Cancer develops through multiple rounds of clonal evolution of cells with abrogated defense systems. Such clonal evolution is triggered by genomic destabilization with associated mutagenesis. However, what increases the risk of genomic destabilization remains unclear. Genomic instability is usually the result of erroneous repair of DNA double‐strand breaks (DSB); paradoxically, however, most cancers develop with genomic instability but lack mutations in DNA repair systems. In this manuscript, we review current knowledge regarding a cellular state that increases the risk of genomic destabilization, in which cells exhibit phenotypes often observed during senescence. In addition, we explore the pathways that lead to genomic destabilization and its associated mutagenesis, which ultimately result in cancer.

Abstract
The epigenome denotes all the information related to gene expression that is not contained in the DNA sequence but rather results from chemical changes to histones and DNA. Epigenetic modifications act in a cooperative way towards the regulation of gene expression, working at the transcriptional or post-transcriptional level, and play a key role in the determination of phenotypic variations in cells containing the same genotype. Epigenetic modifications are important considerations in relation to anti-cancer therapy and regenerative/reconstructive medicine. Moreover, a range of clinical trials have been performed, exploiting the potential of epigenetics in stem cell engineering towards application in disease treatments and diagnostics. Epigenetic studies will most likely be the basis of future cancer therapies, as epigenetic modifications play major roles in tumour formation, malignancy and metastasis. In fact, a large number of currently designed or tested clinical approaches, based on compounds regulating epigenetic pathways in various types of tumours, employ these mechanisms in stem cell bioengineering.

Abstract
Genomic destabilisation is associated with the induction of mutations, including those in cancer-driver genes, and subsequent clonal evolution of cells with abrogated defence systems. Such mutations are not induced when genome stability is maintained; however, the mechanisms involved in genome stability maintenance remain elusive. Here, resveratrol (and related polyphenols) is shown to enhance genome stability in mouse embryonic fibroblasts, ultimately protecting the cells against the induction of mutations in the ARF/p53 pathway. Replication stress-associated DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) that accumulated with genomic destabilisation were effectively reduced by resveratrol treatment. In addition, resveratrol transiently stabilised the expression of histone H2AX, which is involved in DSB repair. Similar effects on the maintenance of genome stability were observed for related polyphenols. Accordingly, we propose that polyphenol consumption can contribute to the suppression of cancers that develop with genomic instability, as well as lifespan extension.

Abstract
Most cancers develop with one of two types of genomic instability, namely, chromosomal instability (CIN) or microsatellite instability (MSI). Both are induced by replication stress-associated DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). The type of genomic instability that arises is dependent on the choice of DNA repair pathway. Specifically, MSI is induced via a PolQ-dependent repair pathway called microhomology-mediated end joining (MMEJ) in a mismatch repair (MMR)-deficient background. However, it is unclear how the MMR status determines the choice of DSB repair pathway. Here, we show that replication stress-associated DSBs initially targeted by the homologous recombination (HR) system were subsequently hijacked by PolQ-dependent MMEJ in MMR-deficient cells, but persisted as HR intermediates in MMR-proficient cells. PolQ interacting with MMR factors was effectively loaded onto damaged chromatin in an MMR-deficient background, in which merged MRE11/γH2AX foci also effectively formed. Thus, the choice of DNA repair pathway according to the MMR status determines whether CIN or MSI is induced.
