چکیده

Glioblastoma is the most malignant and lethal subtype brain tumors with high risk of recurrence and therapeutic resistance. Emerging evidence has indicated that glycogen synthesis kinase 3 (GSK3)β plays oncogenic roles in multiple tumor types; however, the underlying mechanisms remain largely unknown. It has also been demonstrated that p53 binding protein 1 (53BP1) plays a central role in DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair. This study aimed to reveal the significance of GSK3β translocation from the cytoplasm to the nucleus, and to determine whether GSK3β induces DNA DSB repair in the nuclei of glioblastoma cells via phospho-53BP1. By performing in vitro experiments, we found that GSK3β translocated from the cytoplasm to the nucleus, and it then bound to 53BP1 following exposure to IR (IR). In addition, 53BP1-mediated DNA DSB repair was observed to be abrogated by the inhibition of GSK3β. Further experiments on the phosphorylation site of 53BP1 by GSK3β revealed that the S/T-Q motif may play a critical role. Importantly, our in vivo and in vitro data clearly indicated that GSK3β induced the phosphorylation of 53BP1 at the Ser166 site. Moreover, brain tumor xenograft models revealed that following exposure to IR plus SB216763, a specific GSK3β inhibitor, tumor growth was markedly inhibited and the survival of mice markedly increased. Based on these results, we concluded that the phosphorylation of 53BP1 by GSK3β was indispensable for DNA DSB repair. Our study also suggested that the inhibition of GSK3β by SB216763 significantly inhibited the proliferation and induced the apoptosis of glioblastoma cells. Taken together, our data indicate that GSK3β, a key phosphorylation protein for 53BP1, may be a potential target for enhancing the sensitivity of glioblastoma cells to radiation.

Regulation of 53BP1 Protein Stability by RNF8 and RNF168 Is Important for Efficient DNA Double-Strand Break Repair

53BP1 regulates DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair. In functional assays for specific DSB repair pathways, we found that 53BP1 was important in the conservative non-homologous end-joining (C-NHEJ) pathway, and this activity was dependent upon RNF8 and RNF168. We observed that 53BP1 protein was diffusely abundant in nuclei, and upon ionizing radiation, 53BP1 was everywhere degraded except at D...

RAD18 promotes DNA double-strand break repair during G1 phase through chromatin retention of 53BP1

Recruitment of RAD18 to stalled replication forks facilitates monoubiquitination of PCNA during S-phase, promoting translesion synthesis at sites of UV irradiation-induced DNA damage. In this study, we show that RAD18 is also recruited to ionizing radiation (IR)-induced sites of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) forming foci which are co-localized with 53BP1, NBS1, phosphorylated ATM, BRCA1 and g...

Current topics in DNA double-strand break repair.

DNA double strand break (DSB) is one of the most critical types of damage which is induced by ionizing radiation. In this review, we summarize current progress in investigations on the function of DSB repair-related proteins. We focused on recent findings in the analysis of the function of proteins such as 53BP1, histone H2AX, Mus81-Eme1, Fanc complex, and UBC13, which are found to be related t...

Functional redundancy between repair factor XLF and damage response mediator 53BP1 in V(D)J recombination and DNA repair.

The classical nonhomologous DNA end-joining (C-NHEJ) double-strand break (DSB) repair pathway in mammalian cells maintains genome stability and is required for V(D)J recombination and lymphocyte development. Mutations in the XLF C-NHEJ factor or ataxia telangiectasia-mutated (ATM) DSB response protein cause radiosensitivity and immunodeficiency in humans. Although potential roles for XLF in C-N...

53BP1 Integrates DNA Repair and p53-Dependent Cell Fate Decisions via Distinct Mechanisms

The tumor suppressor protein 53BP1, a pivotal regulator of DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair, was first identified as a p53-interacting protein over two decades ago. However, its direct contributions to p53-dependent cellular activities remain undefined. Here, we reveal that 53BP1 stimulates genome-wide p53-dependent gene transactivation and repression events in response to ionizing radiatio...
