Abstract
The DNA damage response is critical for maintaining genome integrity and is commonly disrupted in the development of cancer. PPM1D (protein phosphatase Mg2+/Mn2+-dependent 1D) is a master negative regulator of the response; gain-of-function mutations and amplifications of PPM1D are found across several human cancers making it a relevant pharmacological target. Here, we used CRISPR/Cas9 screening to identify synthetic-lethal dependencies of PPM1D, uncovering superoxide dismutase-1 (SOD1) as a potential target for PPM1D-mutant cells. We revealed a dysregulated redox landscape characterized by elevated levels of reactive oxygen species and a compromised response to oxidative stress in PPM1D-mutant cells. Altogether, our results demonstrate a role for SOD1 in the survival of PPM1D-mutant leukemia cells and highlight a new potential therapeutic strategy against PPM1D-mutant cancers.

Abstract
RAD18 is an E3 ubiquitin ligase that prevents replication fork collapse by promoting DNA translesion synthesis and template switching. Besides this classical role, RAD18 has been implicated in homologous recombination; however, this function is incompletely understood. Here, we show that RAD18 is recruited to DNA lesions by monoubiquitination of histone H2A at K15 and counteracts accumulation of 53BP1. Super-resolution microscopy revealed that RAD18 localizes to the proximity of DNA double strand breaks and limits the distribution of 53BP1 to the peripheral chromatin nanodomains. Whereas auto-ubiquitination of RAD18 mediated by RAD6 inhibits its recruitment to DNA breaks, interaction with SLF1 promotes RAD18 accumulation at DNA breaks in the post-replicative chromatin by recognition of histone H4K20me0. Surprisingly, suppression of 53BP1 function by RAD18 is not involved in homologous recombination and rather leads to reduction of non-homologous end joining. Instead, we provide evidence that RAD18 promotes HR repair by recruiting the SMC5/6 complex to DNA breaks. Finally, we identified several new loss-of-function mutations in RAD18 in cancer patients suggesting that RAD18 could be involved in cancer development.

Abstract
Protein phosphatase magnesium-dependent 1 delta (PPM1D) terminates the cell cycle checkpoint by dephosphorylating the tumour suppressor protein p53. By targeting additional substrates at chromatin, PPM1D contributes to the control of DNA damage response and DNA repair. Using proximity biotinylation followed by proteomic analysis, we identified a novel interaction between PPM1D and the shelterin complex that protects telomeric DNA. In addition, confocal microscopy revealed that endogenous PPM1D localises at telomeres. Further, we found that ATR phosphorylated TRF2 at S410 after induction of DNA double strand breaks at telomeres and this modification increased after inhibition or loss of PPM1D. TRF2 phosphorylation stimulated its interaction with TIN2 both in vitro and at telomeres. Conversely, induced expression of PPM1D impaired localisation of TIN2 and TPP1 at telomeres. Finally, recruitment of the DNA repair factor 53BP1 to the telomeric breaks was strongly reduced after inhibition of PPM1D and was rescued by the expression of TRF2-S410A mutant. Our results suggest that TRF2 phosphorylation promotes the association of TIN2 within the shelterin complex and regulates DNA repair at telomeres.

Abstract
Double-strand breaks (DSBs) are toxic lesions that can be generated by exposure to genotoxic agents or during physiological processes, such as during V(D)J recombination. The repair of these DSBs is crucial to prevent genomic instability and to maintain cellular homeostasis. Two main pathways participate in repairing DSBs, namely, non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) and homologous recombination (HR). The P53-binding protein 1 (53BP1) plays a pivotal role in the choice of DSB repair mechanism, promotes checkpoint activation and preserves genome stability upon DSBs. By preventing DSB end resection, 53BP1 promotes NHEJ over HR. Nonetheless, the balance between DSB repair pathways remains crucial, as unscheduled NHEJ or HR events at different phases of the cell cycle may lead to genomic instability. Therefore, the recruitment of 53BP1 to chromatin is tightly regulated and has been widely studied. However, less is known about the mechanism regulating 53BP1 recruitment at a distance from the DNA damage. The present review focuses on the mechanism of 53BP1 recruitment to damage and on recent studies describing novel mechanisms keeping 53BP1 at a distance from DSBs.

Abstract
Chromosomes are susceptible to damage during their duplication and segregation or when exposed to genotoxic stresses. Left uncorrected, these lesions can result in genomic instability, leading to cells’ diminished fitness, unbridled proliferation or death. To prevent such fates, checkpoint controls transiently halt cell cycle progression to allow time for the implementation of corrective measures. Prominent among these is the DNA damage checkpoint which operates at G2/M transition to ensure that cells with damaged chromosomes do not enter the mitotic phase. The execution and maintenance of cell cycle arrest are essential aspects of G2/M checkpoint and have been studied in detail. Equally critical is cells’ ability to switch-off the checkpoint controls after a successful completion of corrective actions and to recommence cell cycle progression. Interestingly, when corrective measures fail, cells can mount an unusual cellular response, termed adaptation, where they escape checkpoint arrest and resume cell cycle progression with damaged chromosomes at the cost of genome instability or even death. Here, we discuss the DNA damage checkpoint, the mitotic networks it inhibits to prevent segregation of damaged chromosomes and the strategies cells employ to quench the checkpoint controls to override the G2/M arrest.

Abstract
In the face of constant genomic insults, the DNA damage response (DDR) is initiated to preserve genome integrity; its disruption is a classic hallmark of cancer. Protein phosphatase Mg2+/Mn2+-dependent 1D (PPM1D) is a central negative regulator of the DDR that is mutated or amplified in many solid cancers. PPM1D overexpression is associated with increased proliferative and metastatic behavior in multiple solid tumor types and patients with PPM1D-mutated malignancies have poorer prognoses. Recent findings have sparked an interest in the role of PPM1D in hematologic malignancies. Acquired somatic mutations may provide hematopoietic stem cells with a competitive advantage, leading to a substantial proportion of mutant progeny in the peripheral blood, an age-associated phenomenon termed "clonal hematopoiesis" (CH). Recent large-scale genomic studies have identified PPM1D to be among the most frequently mutated genes found in individuals with CH. While PPM1D mutations are particularly enriched in patients with therapy-related myeloid neoplasms, their role in driving leukemic transformation remains uncertain. Here, we examine the mechanisms through which PPM1D overexpression or mutation may drive malignancy by suppression of DNA repair, cell-cycle arrest, and apoptosis. We also discuss the divergent roles of PPM1D in the oncogenesis of solid versus hematologic cancers with a view to clinical implications and new therapeutic avenues.

Abstract
The repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) is crucial for the preservation of genomic integrity and the maintenance of cellular homeostasis. Non-homologous DNA end joining (NHEJ) is the predominant repair mechanism for any type of DNA DSB during the majority of the cell cycle. NHEJ defects regulate tumor sensitivity to ionizing radiation and anti-neoplastic agents, resulting in immunodeficiencies and developmental abnormalities in malignant cells. p53-binding protein 1 (53BP1) is a key mediator involved in DSB repair, which functions to maintain a balance in the repair pathway choices and in preserving genomic stability. 53BP1 promotes DSB repair via NHEJ and antagonizes DNA end overhang resection. At present, novel lines of evidence have revealed the molecular mechanisms underlying the recruitment of 53BP1 and DNA break-responsive effectors to DSB sites, and the promotion of NHEJ-mediated DSB repair via 53BP1, while preventing homologous recombination. In the present review article, recent advances made in the elucidation of the structural and functional characteristics of 53BP1, the mechanisms of 53BP1 recruitment and interaction with the reshaping of the chromatin architecture around DSB sites, the post-transcriptional modifications of 53BP1, and the up- and downstream pathways of 53BP1 are discussed. The present review article also focuses on the application perspectives, current challenges and future directions of 53BP1 research.

Abstract
Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common bone malignancy that occurs most often in young adults, and adolescents with a survival rate of 20% in its advanced stages. Nowadays, increasing the effectiveness of common treatments used in OS has become one of the main problems for clinicians due to cancer cells becoming resistant to chemotherapy. One of the most important mechanisms of resistance to chemotherapy is through increasing the ability of DNA repair because most chemotherapy drugs damage the DNA of cancer cells. DNA damage response (DDR) is a signal transduction pathway involved in preserving the genome stability upon exposure to endogenous and exogenous DNA-damaging factors such as chemotherapy agents. There is evidence that the suppression of DDR may reduce chemoresistance and increase the effectiveness of chemotherapy in OS. In this review, we aim to summarize these studies to better understand the role of DDR in OS chemoresistance in pursuit of overcoming the obstacles to the success of chemotherapy.

Abstract
Background Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most fatal cancers. Due to limited strategies for effective treatments, patients with advanced HCC have a very poor prognosis. This study aims to identify new insights in HCC to develop novel strategies for HCC management. Methods The role of WIP1 (wild type p53 induced protein phosphatase1) in HCC was analyzed in HCC cells, xenograft model, DEN (Diethylnitrosamine) induced mice liver cancer model with WIP1 knockout mice, and TCGA database. DNA damage was evaluated by Gene Set Enrichment Analysis, western blotting, comet assay, and Immunofluorescence. Results High expression of WIP1 is associated with the poor prognosis of patients with HCC. Genetically and chemically suppression of WIP1 drastically reduced HCC cell proliferation. Besides, WIP1 knockout retarded DEN induced mice hepato-carcinogenesis. Mechanically, WIP1 inhibition induced DNA damage by increasing H2AX phosphorylation (γH2AX). Therefore, suppression of WIP1 and PARP induced synthetic lethality in HCC in vitro and in vivo by augmenting DNA damage. Conclusion WIP1 plays an oncogenic effect in HCC development, and targeting WIP1-dependent DNA damage repair alone or in combination with PARP inhibition might be a reasonable strategy for HCC management.

Abstract
Cells respond to genotoxic stress through a series of complex protein pathways called DNA damage response (DDR). These monitoring mechanisms ensure the maintenance and the transfer of a correct genome to daughter cells through a selection of DNA repair, cell cycle regulation, and programmed cell death processes. Canonical or non-canonical DDRs are highly organized and controlled to play crucial roles in genome stability and diversity. When altered or mutated, the proteins in these complex networks lead to many diseases that share common features, and to tumor formation. In recent years, technological advances have made it possible to benefit from the principles and mechanisms of DDR to target and eliminate cancer cells. These new types of treatments are adapted to the different types of tumor sensitivity and could benefit from a combination of therapies to ensure maximal efficiency.

Abstract
Upon exposure to genotoxic stress, cells activate DNA damage response (DDR) that coordinates DNA repair with a temporal arrest in the cell cycle progression. DDR is triggered by activation of ataxia telangiectasia mutated/ataxia telangiectasia and Rad3-related protein kinases that phosphorylate multiple targets including tumor suppressor protein tumor suppressor p53 (p53). In addition, DNA damage can activate parallel stress response pathways [such as mitogen-activated protein kinase p38 alpha (p38)/MAPK-activated protein kinase 2 (MK2) kinases] contributing to establishing the cell cycle arrest. Wild-type p53-induced phosphatase 1 (WIP1) controls timely inactivation of DDR and is needed for recovery from the G2 checkpoint by counteracting the function of p53. Here, we developed a simple in vitro assay for testing WIP1 substrates in nuclear extracts. Whereas we did not detect any activity of WIP1 toward p38/MK2, we confirmed p53 as a substrate of WIP1. Inhibition or inactivation of WIP1 in U2OS cells increased phosphorylation of p53 at S15 and potentiated its acetylation at K382. Further, we identified Deleted in breast cancer gene 1 (DBC1) as a new substrate of WIP1 but surprisingly, depletion of DBC1 did not interfere with the ability of WIP1 to regulate p53 acetylation. Instead, we have found that WIP1 activity suppresses p53-K382 acetylation by inhibiting the interaction between p53 and the acetyltransferase p300. Newly established phosphatase assay allows an easy comparison of WIP1 ability to dephosphorylate various proteins and thus contributes to identification of its physiological substrates.

Analysis of the association between KIN17 expression and the clinical features/prognosis of epithelial ovarian cancer, and the effects of KIN17 in SKOV3 cells. Oncol Lett 2021; 21:475.

Abstract
DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are an important mechanism of chemotherapy in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). Kin17 DNA and RNA binding protein (KIN17) serves a crucial role in DSB repair. In the present study, the association between KIN17 and EOC, and the effects of KIN17 on EOC cells in vitro were evaluated. A bioinformatics method was used to determine the mRNA expression levels of KIN17 in EOC and its association with EOC prognosis including overall survival (OS) and progression free survival (PFS) time. Western blotting and immunohistochemical staining were used to evaluate the expression levels of KIN17 in EOC samples. Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression analyses were utilized to analyze risk factors for the OS of patients with EOC. A Cell Counting Kit-8 assay was performed to explore the roles of KIN17 in SKOV3 cells. Both the transcription and expression of KIN17 were upregulated in EOC tissues. Furthermore, the OS of patients with EOC with high mRNA expression levels of KIN17 was shorter than that of patients with EOC with low expression levels. High KIN17 expression was an independent risk factor for EOC prognosis. Furthermore, KIN17 knockdown inhibited the proliferation of SKOV3 cells, enhanced the sensitivity of the cells to cisplatin and inhibited the migration ability of the cells. These results suggested that KIN17 may act as an ideal candidate for therapy and as a prognostic biomarker of EOC, although the underlying mechanisms require further exploration.

Phosphatase magnesium-dependent 1 δ (PPM1D), serine/threonine protein phosphatase and novel pharmacological target in cancer. Biochem Pharmacol 2020; 184:114362.

Abstract
Aberrations in DNA damage response genes are recognized mediators of tumorigenesis and resistance to chemo- and radiotherapy. While protein phosphatase magnesium-dependent 1 δ (PPM1D), located on the long arm of chromosome 17 at 17q22-23, is a key regulator of cellular responses to DNA damage, amplification, overexpression, or mutation of this gene is important in a wide range of pathologic processes. In this review, we describe the physiologic function of PPM1D, as well as its role in diverse processes, including fertility, development, stemness, immunity, tumorigenesis, and treatment responsiveness. We highlight both the advances and limitations of current approaches to targeting malignant processes mediated by pathogenic alterations in PPM1D with the goal of providing rationale for continued research and development of clinically viable treatment approaches for PPM1D-associated diseases.

Abstract
Genome integrity is protected by the cell-cycle checkpoints that prevent cell proliferation in the presence of DNA damage and allow time for DNA repair. The transient checkpoint arrest together with cellular senescence represent an intrinsic barrier to tumorigenesis. Tumor suppressor p53 is an integral part of the checkpoints and its inactivating mutations promote cancer growth. Protein phosphatase magnesium-dependent 1 (PPM1D) is a negative regulator of p53. Although its loss impairs recovery from the G2 checkpoint and promotes induction of senescence, amplification of the PPM1D locus or gain-of-function truncating mutations of PPM1D occur in various cancers. Here we used a transgenic mouse model carrying a truncating mutation in exon 6 of PPM1D (Ppm1dT). As with human cell lines, we found that the truncated PPM1D was present at high levels in the mouse thymus. Truncated PPM1D did not affect differentiation of T-cells in the thymus but it impaired their response to ionizing radiation (IR). Thymocytes in Ppm1dT/+ mice did not arrest in the checkpoint and continued to proliferate despite the presence of DNA damage. In addition, we observed a decreased level of apoptosis in the thymi of Ppm1dT/+ mice. Moreover, the frequency of the IR-induced T-cell lymphomas increased in Ppm1dT/+Trp53+/- mice resulting in decreased survival. We conclude that truncated PPM1D partially suppresses the p53 pathway in the mouse thymus and potentiates tumor formation under the condition of a partial loss of p53 function.

Phosphorylation of PLK3 Is Controlled by Protein Phosphatase 6. Cells 2020; 9:cells9061506.

Abstract
Polo-like kinases play essential roles in cell cycle control and mitosis. In contrast to other members of this kinase family, PLK3 has been reported to be activated upon cellular stress including DNA damage, hypoxia and osmotic stress. Here we knocked out PLK3 in human non-transformed RPE cells using CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene editing. Surprisingly, we find that loss of PLK3 does not impair stabilization of HIF1α after hypoxia, phosphorylation of the c-Jun after osmotic stress and dynamics of DNA damage response after exposure to ionizing radiation. Similarly, RNAi-mediated depletion of PLK3 did not impair stress response in human transformed cell lines. Exposure of cells to various forms of stress also did not affect kinase activity of purified EGFP-PLK3. We conclude that PLK3 is largely dispensable for stress response in human cells. Using mass spectrometry, we identify protein phosphatase 6 as a new interacting partner of PLK3. Polo box domain of PLK3 mediates the interaction with the PP6 complex. Finally, we find that PLK3 is phosphorylated at Thr219 in the T-loop and that PP6 constantly dephosphorylates this residue. However, in contrast to PLK1, phosphorylation of Thr219 does not upregulate enzymatic activity of PLK3, suggesting that activation of both kinases is regulated by distinct mechanisms.

Abstract
Due to the DNA repair defect, BRCA1/2 deficient tumor cells are more sensitive to PARP inhibitors (PARPi) through the mechanism of synthetic lethality. At present, several PAPRi targeting poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) have been approved for ovarian cancer and breast cancer indications. However, PARPi resistance is ubiquitous in clinic. More than 40% BRCA1/2-deficient patients fail to respond to PARPi. In addition, lots of patients acquire PARPi resistance with prolonged oral administration of PARPi. Homologous recombination repair deficient (HRD), as an essential prerequisite of synthetic lethality, plays a vital role in killing tumor cells. Therefore, Homologous recombination repair restoration (HRR) becomes the predominant reason of PARPi resistance. Recently, it was reported that DNA replication fork protection also contributed to PARPi resistance in BRCA1/2-deficient cells and patients. Moreover, various factors, such as reversion mutations, epigenetic modification, restoration of ADP-ribosylation (PARylation) and pharmacological alteration lead to PARPi resistance as well. In this review, we reviewed the underlying mechanisms of PARP inhibitor resistance in detail and summarized the potential strategies to overcome PARPi resistance and increase PARPi sensitivity.

Targeting Mutant PPM1D Sensitizes Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma Cells to the PARP Inhibitor Olaparib. Mol Cancer Res 2020; 18:968-980. [PMID: 32229503 DOI: 10.1158/1541-7786.mcr-19-0507] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/14/2019] [Revised: 12/09/2019] [Accepted: 03/24/2020] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) is an invariably fatal brain tumor occurring predominantly in children. Up to 90% of pediatric DIPGs harbor a somatic heterozygous mutation resulting in the replacement of lysine 27 with methionine (K27M) in genes encoding histone H3.3 (H3F3A, 65%) or H3.1 (HIST1H3B, 25%). Several studies have also identified recurrent truncating mutations in the gene encoding protein phosphatase 1D, PPM1D, in 9%-23% of DIPGs. Here, we sought to investigate the therapeutic potential of targeting PPM1D, alone or in combination with inhibitors targeting specific components of DNA damage response pathways in patient-derived DIPG cell lines. We found that GSK2830371, an allosteric PPM1D inhibitor, suppressed the proliferation of PPM1D-mutant, but not PPM1D wild-type DIPG cells. We further observed that PPM1D inhibition sensitized PPM1D-mutant DIPG cells to PARP inhibitor (PARPi) treatment. Mechanistically, combined PPM1D and PARP inhibition show synergistic effects on suppressing a p53-dependent RAD51 expression and the formation of RAD51 nuclear foci, possibly leading to impaired homologous recombination (HR)-mediated DNA repair in PPM1D-mutant DIPG cells. Collectively, our findings reveal the potential role of the PPM1D-p53 signaling axis in the regulation of HR-mediated DNA repair and provide preclinical evidence demonstrating that combined inhibition of PPM1D and PARP1/2 may be a promising therapeutic combination for targeting PPM1D-mutant DIPG tumors. IMPLICATIONS: The findings support the use of PARPi in combination with PPM1D inhibition against PPM1D-mutant DIPGs.
