Sequence- and region-specificity of oxaliplatin adducts in naked and cellular DNA.

چکیده
Oxaliplatin is a clinical anticancer drug with a pharmacological profile distinct from that of cisplatin. Our studies compared site- and region-specificity of lesions induced by oxaliplatin and cisplatin in naked and intracellular DNA, respectively. Oxaliplatin adducts in naked Simian virus 40 (SV40 DNA) were mapped by repetitive primer extension. The sites of oxaliplatin adducts were nearly identical to the sites of cisplatin adducts and were focused in G clusters and GNG motifs probably reflecting intrastrand cross-links. Although alkaline agarose electrophoresis of specific SV40 fragments showed that oxaliplatin formed interstrand cross-links, the levels of this lesion type were low. Drug-induced lesions in discrete loci of cellular DNA were assessed by the polymerase chain reaction stop assay in human tumor A2780 cells. Oxaliplatin at 200 microM induced approximately 1300, approximately 1500, approximately 800, and approximately 300 lesions/10(6) bp in the human beta-globin, c-myc, and HPRT genes and in mitochondrial DNA, respectively. Cisplatin formed two to six times more lesions in the same regions. For both drugs, lesion frequencies seem to parallel the density of drug-binding motifs in the nuclear regions, whereas mitochondrial DNA was disproportionately less affected. Despite less potent induction of DNA lesions, oxaliplatin was more cytotoxic than cisplatin against A2780 cells. Because our findings clearly demonstrate that oxaliplatin forms covalent adducts with a similar sequence- and region-specificity to that of cisplatin, other properties of oxaliplatin adducts, factors other than DNA binding, or both determine the unique features of the mechanism of action of oxaliplatin.

Oxaliplatin-induced damage of cellular DNA.
Damage to cellular DNA is believed to determine the antiproliferative properties of platinum (Pt) drugs. This study characterized DNA damage by oxaliplatin, a diaminocyclohexane Pt drug with clinical antitumor activity. Compared with cisplatin, oxaliplatin formed significantly fewer Pt-DNA adducts (e.g., 0.86+/-0.04 versus 1.36+/- 0.01 adducts/10(6) base pairs/10 microM drug/1 h, respectively, ...
متن کاملFlanking Bases Influence the Nature of DNA Distortion by Platinum 1,2-Intrastrand (GG) Cross-Links
The differences in efficacy and molecular mechanisms of platinum anti-cancer drugs cisplatin (CP) and oxaliplatin (OX) are thought to be partially due to the differences in the DNA conformations of the CP and OX adducts that form on adjacent guanines on DNA, which in turn influence the binding of damage-recognition proteins that control downstream effects of the adducts. Here we report a compre...

Background: Deoxyribozymes (Dzs) can play a role as gene expression inhibitors at mRNA level. Among Dzs, the 10-23 deoxyribozyme has significant potentials for treatment of diseases. Designed Dz includes a catalytic core made of 15 deoxyribonucleotides and two binding arms consisted of 6-12 nucleotides for site specific binding to target RNA and hydrolysis. The enzyme has characteristic feature...
متن کاملStructural basis for the sequence-dependent effects of platinum–DNA adducts
The differences in efficacy and molecular mechanisms of platinum based anti-cancer drugs cisplatin (CP) and oxaliplatin (OX) have been hypothesized to be in part due to the differential binding affinity of cellular and damage recognition proteins to CP and OX adducts formed on adjacent guanines in genomic DNA. HMGB1a in particular exhibits higher binding affinity to CP-GG adducts, and the exten...
متن کاملDifferences in Conformation and Conformational Dynamics Between Cisplatin and Oxaliplatin DNA Adducts
Some DNA damage-recognition proteins, transcription factors, mismatch repair proteins and DNA polymerases discriminate between cisplatin (CP)and oxaliplatin (OX)-GG DNA adducts, and this is thought to help explain differences in efficacy, toxicity and mutagenicity of CP and OX. In addition, differential recognition of CPand OX-GG adducts by some proteins has been shown to be highly dependent on...
