Poly(ADP-ribose) Polymerase 1 In Response Research Articles

NAD+ consumption by PARP1 in response to DNA damage triggers metabolic shift critical for damaged cell survival.

DNA damage signaling is critical for the maintenance of genome integrity and cell fate decision. Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) is a DNA damage sensor rapidly activated in a damage dose- and complexity-dependent manner playing a critical role in the initial chromatin organization and DNA repair pathway choice at damage sites. However, our understanding of a cell-wide consequence of its activation in damaged cells is still limited. Using the phasor approach to fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy and fluorescence-based biosensors in combination with laser microirradiation, we found a rapid cell-wide increase of the bound NADH fraction in response to nuclear DNA damage, which is triggered by PARP-dependent NAD+ depletion. This change is linked to the metabolic balance shift to oxidative phosphorylation (oxphos) over glycolysis. Inhibition of oxphos, but not glycolysis, resulted in parthanatos due to rapid PARP-dependent ATP deprivation, indicating that oxphos becomes critical for damaged cell survival. The results reveal the novel prosurvival response to PARP activation through a change in cellular metabolism and demonstrate how unique applications of advanced fluorescence imaging and laser microirradiation-induced DNA damage can be a powerful tool to interrogate damage-induced metabolic changes at high spatiotemporal resolution in a live cell.

CHK2-mediated regulation of PARP1 in oxidative DNA damage response.

Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) is a DNA damage sensor, which upon activation, recruits downstream proteins by poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation (PARylation). However, it remains largely unclear how PARP1 activity is regulated. Interestingly, the data obtained through this study revealed that PARP1 was co-immunoprecipitated with checkpoint kinase 2 (CHK2), and the interaction was increased after oxidative DNA damage. Moreover, CHK2 depletion resulted in a reduction in overall PARylation. To further explore the functional relationship between PARP1 and CHK2, this study employed H2O2 to induce an oxidative DNA damage response in cells. Here, we showed that CHK2 and PARP1 interact in vitro and in vivo through the CHK2 SCD domain and the PARP1 BRCT domain. Furthermore, CHK2 stimulates the PARylation activity of PARP1 through CHK2-dependent phosphorylation. Consequently, the impaired repair associated with PARP1 depletion could be rescued by re-expression of wild-type PARP1 and the phospho-mimic but not the phospho-deficient mutant. Mechanistically, we showed that CHK2-dependent phosphorylation of PARP1 not only regulates its cellular localization but also promotes its catalytic activity and its interaction with XRCC1. These findings indicate that CHK2 exerts a multifaceted impact on PARP1 in response to oxidative stress to facilitate DNA repair and to maintain cell survival.

Differentiation-Associated Downregulation of Poly(ADP-Ribose) Polymerase-1 Expression in Myoblasts Serves to Increase Their Resistance to Oxidative Stress.

Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1), the major isoform of the poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase family, is a constitutive nuclear and mitochondrial protein with well-recognized roles in various essential cellular functions such as DNA repair, signal transduction, apoptosis, as well as in a variety of pathophysiological conditions including sepsis, diabetes and cancer. Activation of PARP-1 in response to oxidative stress catalyzes the covalent attachment of the poly (ADP-ribose) (PAR) groups on itself and other acceptor proteins, utilizing NAD+ as a substrate. Overactivation of PARP-1 depletes intracellular NAD+ influencing mitochondrial electron transport, cellular ATP generation and, if persistent, can result in necrotic cell death. Due to their high metabolic activity, skeletal muscle cells are particularly exposed to constant oxidative stress insults. In this study, we investigated the role of PARP-1 in a well-defined model of murine skeletal muscle differentiation (C2C12) and compare the responses to oxidative stress of undifferentiated myoblasts and differentiated myotubes. We observed a marked reduction of PARP-1 expression as myoblasts differentiated into myotubes. This alteration correlated with an increased resistance to oxidative stress of the myotubes, as measured by MTT and LDH assays. Mitochondrial function, assessed by measuring mitochondrial membrane potential, was preserved under oxidative stress in myotubes compared to myoblasts. Moreover, basal respiration, ATP synthesis, and the maximal respiratory capacity of mitochondria were higher in myotubes than in myoblasts. Inhibition of the catalytic activity of PARP-1 by PJ34 (a phenanthridinone PARP inhibitor) exerted greater protective effects in undifferentiated myoblasts than in differentiated myotubes. The above observations in C2C12 cells were also confirmed in a rat-derived skeletal muscle cell line (L6). Forced overexpression of PARP1 in C2C12 myotubes sensitized the cells to oxidant-induced injury. Taken together, our data indicate that the reduction of PARP-1 expression during the process of the skeletal muscle differentiation serves as a protective mechanism to maintain the cellular functions of skeletal muscle during oxidative stress.

RANKL Up-regulates Brain-type Creatine Kinase via Poly(ADP-ribose) Polymerase-1 during Osteoclastogenesis

Receptor activator of nuclear factor κB ligand (RANKL) is the key regulator for osteoclast formation and function. During osteoclastogenesis, RANKL-stimulated signals differentially modulate expression of a large number of proteins. Using proteomics approaches, we identified that brain-type cytoplasmic creatine kinase (Ckb) was greatly induced in mature osteoclasts. Ckb has been shown to contribute to osteoclast function. However, the mechanisms of Ckb regulation and the contribution of other isoforms of creatine kinase during RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis are unknown. We found that Ckb was the predominant isoform of creatine kinase during osteoclastogenesis. Real-time PCR confirmed that RANKL induced ckb mRNA expression by over 40-fold in primary mouse bone marrow macrophages and Raw 264.7 cells. The RANKL-responsive region was identified within the -0.4- to -0.2-kb 5'-flanking region of the ckb gene. Affinity binding purification followed by mass spectrometry analysis revealed that poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) bound to the -0.4/-0.2-kb fragment that negatively regulated expression of ckb in response to RANKL stimulation. Electrophoretic mobility shift assays with PARP-1-specific antibody located the binding site of PARP-1 to the TTCCCA consensus sequence. The expression of PARP-1 was reduced during RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis, concurrently with increased expression of Ckb. Consistently, knockdown of PARP-1 by lentivirus-delivered shRNA enhanced ckb mRNA expression. The activity of PARP-1 was determined to be required for its inhibitory effect on the ckb expression. In summary, we have demonstrated that PARP-1 is a negative regulator of the ckb expression. Down-regulation of PARP-1 is responsible for the up-regulation of ckb during RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis.

Activation of PARP-1 in response to bleomycin depends on the Ku antigen and protein phosphatase 5

Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) has an important role in the cellular response to a broad spectrum of DNA lesions. PARP-1 is strongly activated in response to double-stranded DNA breaks (DSBs), yet its contribution to the DSB response is poorly understood. Here we used bleomycin, a radiomimetic that generates DSBs with high specificity to focus on the response of PARP-1 to DSBs. We report that the induction of PARP-1 activity by bleomycin depends on the Ku antigen, a nonhomologous-DNA-End-Joining factor and protein phosphatase 5 (PP5). PARP-1 activation in response to bleomycin was reduced over 10-fold in Ku-deficient cells, whereas its activation in response to U.V. was unaffected. PARP-1 activation was rescued by reexpression of Ku, but was refractory to manipulation of DNA-dependent protein kinase or ATM. Similarly, PARP-1 activation subsequent to bleomycin was reduced 2-fold on ablation of PP5 and was increased 5-fold when PP5 was overexpressed. PP5 seemed to act directly on PARP-1, as its basal phosphorylation was reduced on overexpression of PP5, and PP5 dephosphorylated PARP-1 in vitro. These results highlight the functional importance of Ku antigen and PP5 for PARP-1 activity subsequent to DSBs.

Condensin I Interacts with the PARP-1-XRCC1 Complex and Functions in DNA Single-Strand Break Repair

Condensins are essential protein complexes critical for mitotic chromosome organization. Little is known about the function of condensins during interphase, particularly in mammalian cells. Here we report the interphase-specific interaction between condensin I and the DNA nick-sensor poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1). We show that the association between condensin I, PARP-1, and the base excision repair (BER) factor XRCC1 increases dramatically upon single-strand break damage (SSB) induction. Damage-specific association of condensin I with the BER factors flap endonuclease 1 (FEN-1) and DNA polymerase delta/epsilon was also observed, suggesting that condensin I is recruited to interact with BER factors at damage sites. Consistent with this, DNA damage rapidly stimulates the chromatin association of PARP-1, condensin I, and XRCC1. Furthermore, depletion of condensin in vivo compromises SSB but not double-strand break (DSB) repair. Our results identify a SSB-specific response of condensin I through PARP-1 and demonstrate a role for condensin in SSB repair.

The Role of Poly(ADP-ribose) Polymerase-1 in Ventilator-Induced Lung Injury

Background : Reactive oxygen species (ROS) take center stage as executers in ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI). The protein with DNA-damage scanning activity, poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP1), signals DNA rupture and participates in base-excision repair. Paradoxically,overactivation of PARP1 in response to massive genotoxic injury such as ROS can induce cell death through -nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide () depletion, resulting in inflammation. The purpose of this study is to investigate the role of PARP1 and the effect of its inhibitor in VILI. Methods : Forty-eight male C57BL/6 mice were divided into sham, lung protective ventilation(LPV), VILI, and PARP1 inhibitor (PJ34)+VILI (PJ34+VILI) groups. Mechanical ventilator setting for the LPV group was + + RR 90/min + 2 hours. The VILI and PJ34+VILI groups were ventilated on a setting of + + RR 90/min + 2 hours. As a PARP1 inhibitor for the PJ34+VILI group, 20 mg/Kg of PJ34 was treated intraperitoneally 2 hours before mechanical ventilation. Wet-to-dry weight ratio and acute lung injury (ALI) score were measured to determine the degree of VILI. PARP1 activity was evaluated by using an immunohistochemical method utilizing biotinylated NAD. Myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity and the concentration of inflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor , interleukin , and IL-6 were measured in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF). Results : In the PJ34+VILI group, PJ34 pretreatment significantly reduced the degree of lung injury, compared with the VILI group (p, , and IL-6 were also significantly lower in the PJ34+VILI group (all, p

Depletion of the 110-kilodalton isoform of poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase increases sensitivity to genotoxic and endotoxic stress in mice.

Poly(ADP-ribosylation) is rapidly stimulated in cells following DNA damage. This posttranslational modification is regulated by the synthesizing enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1) and the degrading enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG). Although the role of PARP-1 in response to DNA damage has been studied extensively, the function of PARG and the impact of poly(ADP-ribose) homeostasis in various cellular processes are largely unknown. Here we show that by gene targeting in embryonic stem cells and mice, we specifically deleted the 110-kDa PARG protein (PARG(110)) normally found in the nucleus and that depletion of PARG(110) severely compromised the automodification of PARP-1 in vivo. PARG(110)-deficient mice were viable and fertile, but these mice were hypersensitive to alkylating agents and ionizing radiation. In addition, these mice were susceptible to streptozotocin-induced diabetes and endotoxic shock. These data indicate that PARG(110) plays an important role in DNA damage responses and in pathological processes.
