DNA damage-induced inhibition of rRNA synthesis by DNA-PK and PARP-1
نویسندگان
چکیده
RNA synthesis and DNA replication cease after DNA damage. We studied RNA synthesis using an in situ run-on assay and found ribosomal RNA (rRNA) synthesis was inhibited 24 h after UV light, gamma radiation or DNA cross-linking by cisplatin in human cells. Cisplatin led to accumulation of cells in S phase. Inhibition of the DNA repair proteins DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK) or poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1) prevented the DNA damage-induced block of rRNA synthesis. However, DNA-PK and PARP-1 inhibition did not prevent the cisplatin-induced arrest of cell cycle in S phase, nor did it induce de novo BrdU incorporation. Loss of DNA-PK function prevented activation of PARP-1 and its recruitment to chromatin in damaged cells, suggesting regulation of PARP-1 by DNA-PK within a pathway of DNA repair. From these results, we propose a sequential activation of DNA-PK and PARP-1 in cells arrested in S phase by DNA damage causes the interruption of rRNA synthesis after DNA damage.

Effects of Poly (ADP-ribose) Polymerase Inhibition on DNA Integrity and Gene Expression in Ovarian Follicular Cells in Mice with Endotoxemia
Background: A mouse model of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammation was used to investigate the effect of pharmacological inhibition of nuclear enzyme PARP-1 on oocyte maturation, apoptotic and necrotic death, as well as DNA integrity of follicular cells. Also, the relative expression of cumulus genes (HAS2, COX2, and GREM1) associated with oocyte developmental competence was assessed. M...

Regulation of poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) synthesis and turnover is critical to determining cell fate after genotoxic stress. Hyperactivation of PAR synthesis by poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) occurs when cells deficient in DNA repair are exposed to genotoxic agents; however, the function of this hyperactivation has not been adequately explained. Here, we examine PAR synthesis in mouse fibro...

Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP-1), ATM and DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK) are all involved in responding to DNA damage to activate pathways responsible for cellular survival. Here, we demonstrate that PARP-1-/- cells are sensitive to the ATM inhibitor KU55933 and conversely that AT cells are sensitive to the PARP inhibitor 4-amino-1,8-napthalamide. In addition, PARP-1-/- cells are sh...
متن کاملInhibition of DNA damage repair by artificial activation of PARP with siDNA
One of the major early steps of repair is the recruitment of repair proteins at the damage site, and this is coordinated by a cascade of modifications controlled by phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-related kinases and/or poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP). We used short interfering DNA molecules mimicking double-strand breaks (called Dbait) or single-strand breaks (called Pbait) to promote DNA-de...
متن کاملRadiosensitization and DNA repair inhibition by the combined use of novel inhibitors of DNA-dependent protein kinase and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1.
The DNA repair enzymes, DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK) and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1), are key determinants of radio- and chemo-resistance. We have developed and evaluated novel specific inhibitors of DNA-PK (NU7026) and PARP-1 (AG14361) for use in anticancer therapy. PARP-1- and DNA-PK-deficient cell lines were 4-fold more sensitive to ionizing radiation (IR) alone, and show...
