DNA polymerase eta reduces the gamma-H2AX response to psoralen interstrand crosslinks in human cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
DNA interstrand crosslinks are processed by multiple mechanisms whose relationships to each other are unclear. Xeroderma pigmentosum-variant (XP-V) cells lacking DNA polymerase eta are sensitive to psoralen photoadducts created under conditions favoring crosslink formation, suggesting a role for translesion synthesis in crosslink repair. Because crosslinks can lead to double-strand breaks, we monitored phosphorylated H2AX (gamma-H2AX), which is typically generated near double-strand breaks but also in response to single-stranded DNA, following psoralen photoadduct formation in XP-V fibroblasts to assess whether polymerase eta is involved in processing crosslinks. In contrast to conditions favoring monoadducts, conditions favoring psoralen crosslinks induced gamma-H2AX levels in both XP-V and nucleotide excision repair-deficient XP-A cells relative to control repair-proficient cells; ectopic expression of polymerase eta in XP-V cells normalized the gamma-H2AX response. In response to psoralen crosslinking, gamma-H2AX as well as 53BP1 formed coincident foci that were more numerous and intense in XP-V and XP-A cells than in controls. Psoralen photoadducts induced gamma-H2AX throughout the cell cycle in XP-V cells. These results indicate that polymerase eta is important in responding to psoralen crosslinks, and are consistent with a model in which nucleotide excision repair and polymerase eta are involved in processing crosslinks and avoiding gamma-H2AX associated with double-strand breaks and single-stranded DNA in human cells. 相似文献

Oxaliplatin is frequently used in the therapy of cancer. In DNA, oxaliplatin induces, like cisplatin, the formation of crosslinks, which are commonly accepted as being responsible for the cytotoxicity of platinum agents. The detection of oxaliplatin-induced DNA crosslink formation and repair could be a good measure of assessing how a patient is responding to the agent. In this study, we used a validated modification of the alkaline comet assay for detecting the presence of these crosslinks in vitro and in cancer patients. The H460 tumour cell line was treated in vitro with a range of oxaliplatin and cisplatin doses, and the subsequent crosslink formation and repair compared between the two agents. In addition, lymphocytes from cancer patients undergoing oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy were assayed for the formation and repair of oxaliplatin-induced crosslinks. A dose-response was observed in the in vitro samples, with cisplatin producing more crosslinks than oxaliplatin at equimolar concentrations and lesions induced by both agents showing different repair efficiencies. Furthermore, evidence of crosslink formation and repair was observed in the peripheral blood lymphocytes of all cancer patients studied, along with the detection of interindividual variability in crosslink formation and repair efficiencies. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that oxaliplatin DNA crosslinks have been detected either in vitro or in patient samples using the alkaline comet assay. Due to its sensitivity, rapidity, small cell sample and low cost, the alkaline comet assay is a good method for the detection of oxaliplatin-induced crosslinks and their subsequent repair and, in future clinical studies, could prove to be a valuable tool in assessing/predicting a patient's response to chemotherapy. 相似文献

DNA-DNA crosslinks in cells treated with mitomycin C, nitrogen mustard, or decarbamoyl mitomycin C were measured in alkaline isopycnic gradients as a function of pH. Crosslinks from cells treated with mitomycin C and nitrogen mustard, which react with DNA purines, could be detected at pH 12.5 but not at pH 14. No crosslinks from cells treated with decarbamoyl mitomycin C were detected at either pH. Previous studies with cells exposed to psoralen derivatives plus 360 nm light, which produce DNA-DNA crosslinks with pyrimidines, demonstrated stable crosslinks at pH 14. These studies indicate that DNA-DNA crosslinks involving DNA purines are much less stable at high pH than those involving pyrimidines, and that methods involving exposure to extreme alkaline conditions may give inaccurate information for some agents. 相似文献

Bulky adducts to DNA including DNA-protein crosslinks formed with trans-platinum(II)diammine-dichloride are repaired largely by the nucleotide excision pathway in mammalian cells. The discovery in this laboratory that cells deficient in nucleotide excision repair, i.e., SV40-virus transformed SV-XP20S cells, can efficiently repair DNA-protein crosslinks implicates a second pathway. In this report, details concerning this pathway are presented. DNA-protein crosslinks induced with 20 microM trans-platinum were assayed by the membrane alkaline elution procedure of Kohn. DNA replication was measured by CsCl gradient separation of newly synthesized DNA that had incorporated 5-bromodeoxyuridine. The following results indicate that this new repair pathway is associated with cell cycling: Whereas rapidly proliferating human cells deficient in excision repair (SV40 transformed XP20S, group A) are proficient in repair of DNA-protein crosslinks, the more slowly growing untransformed parent line is deficient but can complete repair after prolonged periods of 4-6 days, the approximate doubling time of the cell population. Either "used" culture medium or cycloheximide (1 microgram/ml) inhibits cell proliferation, protein synthesis, DNA replication and crosslink repair. In the presence of increasing concentrations of cycloheximide (0.01-5 micrograms/ml) the percent of DNA replication decreases and is essentially equivalent to the percent of crosslink repair. The following results indicate that this new repair pathway, though associated with cell cycling, is independent of DNA replication per se. The rates of DNA-protein crosslink repair and DNA replication are essentially the same in mouse L1210 cells rapidly proliferating in 20% serum supplement; however, to slower proliferation rates in 1% serum rate of crosslink repair is slower but differs from that of DNA replication. In the presence of aphidicolin (10 micrograms/ml) cells can repair DNA-protein crosslinks in virtually the complete absence of DNA replication, though the rate is slower in both nucleotide excision-proficient and -deficient cells. Thus, DNA replication is not essential for repair of DNA-protein crosslinks. Comparison of the kinetics of replication and DNA-protein crosslink repair of pulse-labeled indicates that, in the absence of metabolic inhibitors, repair of the crosslinks is independent of replication per se and, therefore, DNA recombination events are not involved in this repair process. We conclude, therefore, that the new repair pathway is not coupled with DNA replication but is with cell cycling. 相似文献

Repair of 8-methoxypsoralen monoadducts in mouse lymphoma cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Studies of the repair of DNA lesions at biologically important doses is extremely difficult for most mutagens. With 8-methoxypsoralen (8-MOP) plus longwave ultraviolet light (UVA) as the lesion-inducing agent, however, it is easy to manipulate the relative frequency of different DNA adducts by means of a special experimental protocol (the tap-and-test protocol) and this can be used to measure repair of DNA adducts. Three classes of photoadducts are produced by 8-MOP plus UVA treatment: 3,4-cyclobutane monoadducts, 4',5'-cyclobutane monoadducts, and 8-MOP-DNA interstrand crosslinks. A monoadduct is formed when a photoactivated 8-MOP molecule reacts with a pyrimidine base. An 8-MOP-DNA interstrand crosslink is formed when an existing monoadduct is photoactivated to react with another pyrimidine base on the opposite DNA strand. Thus monoadducts are formed by absorption of one photon of light and crosslinks by absorption of two. In the tap-and-test experiments, cells were exposed to UVA in the presence of 8-MOP and then re-exposed to UVA in the absence of free 8-MOP so that only crosslinks can be produced by the second UVA treatment. By means of this technique we have previously shown that DNA crosslinks are much more effective than monoadducts at producing chromosomal damage (sister-chromatid exchanges and micronuclei) but not mutations (Liu-Lee et al., 1984). If L5178Y mouse lymphoma cells were able to remove monoadducts, incubation prior to the second UVA treatment should lead to decreases in the effect of re-irradiation, because fewer monoadducts would be available for crosslink formation. In this way, we have found that psoralen monoadducts are repaired in these cells and that about 70% of those capable of crosslink formation are removed or otherwise made unavailable for crosslink formation in 6 h. 相似文献

Summary Experiments were conducted to study the relationship between the production of interstrand crosslinks by 4,5,8-trimethylpsoralen (psoralen) in simian virus 40 DNA and the ability of psoralen to inactivate the virus. Under conditions where only single viral particles enter a given host cell, approximately one crosslink was lethal to the virus and could not be repaired. In contrast, when multiple viral genomes infected a host cell, psoralen-induced crosslinks were repaired (multiplicity reactivation). A model is proposed for multiplicity reactivation which involves genetic recombination between damaged viral genomes.Abbreviations used DNA

Human cell free extracts are capable of carrying out damage-induced DNA synthesis in response to DNA damage by UV, psoralen, and cisplatin. We show that this damage-induced DNA synthesis is associated with removal of psoralen adducts and therefore is 'repair synthesis' and not an aberrant DNA synthesis reaction potentiated by DNA deformed by adducts. By comparing the denaturable fraction of psoralen adducted DNA which becomes labeled in the repair reaction to that of terminally labeled DNA (without repair) we have found that all DNA synthesis induced by psoralen monoadducts is the consequence of removal of these adducts. By the same approach we have obtained preliminary evidence that this in vitro system is capable of removing psoralen crosslinks as well. 相似文献

Uvr-independent repair of 8-methoxypsoralen crosslinks in Escherichia coli: evidence for a recombinational process 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
On the basis of survival data, repair of 8-methoxypsoralen DNA crosslinks in Escherichia coli strains lacking a functional uvrABC endonuclease, is shown to require the products of the recA, recB, recF and recN genes. Bacteria, grown under conditions where most cells contain only a single genome, show no evidence of crosslink repair. Similarly, bacteriophage lambda shows evidence of crosslink repair only in SOS-induced cells, and only at multiplicities of infection greater than 1. The requirement for rec+ genes may be partly ascribed to the need for a functional SOS response, but taken together, the results suggest a recombinational step involving a homologous region of DNA may occur during uvr-independent crosslink repair. 相似文献

Differential repair and replication of damaged DNA in ribosomal RNA genes in different CHO cell lines 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
We studied the repair of psoralen adducts in the pol I-transcribed ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes of excision repair competent Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell lines, their UV sensitive mutant derivatives, and their UV resistant transformants, which express a human excision repair gene. In the parental cell line CHO-AA8, both monoadducts and interstrand crosslinks are removed efficiently from the rRNA genes, whereas neither adduct is removed in the UV sensitive derivative UV5; removal of both adducts is restored in the UV resistant transformant CHO-5T4 carrying the human excision repair gene ERCC-2. In contrast, removal of psoralen adducts from the rRNA genes is not detected in another parental CHO cell line CHO-9, neither in its UV sensitive derivative 43-3B, nor in its UV resistant transformant 83-G5 carrying the human excision repair gene ERCC-1. In contrast to such intergenomic heterogeneity of repair, persistence of psoralen monoadducts during replication of the rRNA genes occurs equally well in all CHO cell lines tested. From these data, we conclude that: 1) the repair efficiency of DNA damage in the rRNA genes varies between established parental CHO cell lines; 2) the repair pathways of intrastrand adducts and interstrand crosslinks in mammalian cells share, at least, one gene product, i.e., the excision repair gene ERCC-2; 3) replicational bypass of psoralen monoadducts at the CHO rRNA locus occurs similarly on both DNA strands. 相似文献

The induction of single-strand breaks (SSBs) in the DNA of Chinese hamster ovary cells by X rays under different irradiation conditions was measured by the alkaline elution technique. The oxygen enhancement ratio (OER) for SSB induction determined for cells irradiated in air versus irradiation of cells made hypoxic by metabolic depletion of O2 was 9.7. However, when proteinase K was included in the cell lysis solution the OER was reduced to 4.2. The proteinase affected the elution rate only of the cells irradiated under hypoxic conditions, suggesting that DNA-protein crosslinks (DPCs) are preferentially produced in hypoxic cells by radiation. The ability to repair these DPCs was compared in two cell lines: the wild-type AA8 line and an excision-repair-deficient mutant line, UV-41. The AA8 line removed about 80% of the DPCs induced by radiation under hypoxic conditions within a 24-h repair incubation. The UV-41 line, on the other hand, removed only about 20% of the DPCs in the same time. The OERs for cell survival of these two lines are 3.1 for AA8 but only 1.9 for UV-41, suggesting that the DPCs preferentially induced in the DNA of cells irradiated under hypoxic conditions may contribute to cell killing when the normal DNA-repair mechanisms are compromised. 相似文献

gamma-H2AX formation in response to interstrand crosslinks requires XPF in human cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
To further define the molecular mechanisms involved in processing interstrand crosslinks, we monitored the formation of phosphorylated histone H2AX (gamma-H2AX), which is generated in chromatin near double strand break sites, following DNA damage in normal and repair-deficient human cells. Following treatment with a psoralen derivative and ultraviolet A radiation doses that produce significant numbers of crosslinks, gamma-H2AX levels in nucleotide excision repair-deficient XP-A fibroblasts (XP12RO-SV) increased to levels that were twice those observed in normal control GM637 fibroblasts. A partial XPA revertant cell line (XP129) that is proficient in crosslink removal, exhibited reduced gamma-H2AX levels that were intermediate between those of GM637 and XP-A cells. XP-F fibroblasts (XP2YO-SV and XP3YO) that are also repair-deficient exhibited gamma-H2AX levels below even control fibroblasts following treatment with psoralen and ultraviolet A radiation. Similarly, another crosslinking agent, mitomycin C, did not induce gamma-H2AX in XP-F cells, although it did induce equivalent levels of gamma-H2AX in XPA and control GM637 cells. Ectopic expression of XPF in XP-F fibroblasts restored gamma-H2AX induction following treatment with crosslinking agents. Angelicin, a furocoumarin which forms only monoadducts and not crosslinks following ultraviolet A radiation, as well as ultraviolet C radiation, resulted only in weak induction of gamma-H2AX in all cells, suggesting that the double strand breaks observed with psoralen and ultraviolet A treatment result preferentially following crosslink formation. These results indicate that XPF is required to form gamma-H2AX and likely double strand breaks in response to interstrand crosslinks in human cells. Furthermore, XPA may be important to allow psoralen interstrand crosslinks to be processed without forming a double strand break intermediate. 相似文献

Formation of crosslinks in DNA by three bifunctional psoralen derivatives plus UVA light in mouse embryo fibroblasts was evaluated by a NaI density gradient centrifugation method. Psoralen was shown to be a more active cross-linking agent than 8-methoxypsoralen. As for 4,5',8-trimethylpsoralen, it needed much lower concentrations and much less 365 nm light fluence to yield high percentages of crosslinked DNA. Repair of adducts formed by these psoralen derivatives was studied by splitting the irradiation dose into two equal parts separated by variously long dark repair periods. It was shown that essentially only monoadducts formed during the first irradiation period were repaired. These mouse embryo fibroblasts seem unable to repair interstrand DNA crosslinks. 相似文献

This paper evaluates methods to measure crosslinkage due to psoralen plus light in total DNA and in specific sequences. DNA exposed in cells or in vitro to a bifunctional psoralen and near ultraviolet light accumulates interstrand crosslinks. Crosslinkage is the DNA mass fraction that is attached in both strands to a crosslink. We show here biochemical methods to measure psoralen photocrosslinkage accurately in total DNA. We also describe methods to measure photocrosslinkage indirectly, in specific sequences, by nucleic acid hybridization. We show that a single 4,5',8-trimethylpsoralen (TMP) crosslink causes at least 50 kbp of alkali-denatured DNA contiguous in both strands with it to snap back into the duplex form when the denatured preparation is returned to neutral pH. This process was so efficient that the DNA was not nicked by the single-strand nuclease S1 at 100-fold excess after snapping back. Uncrosslinked DNA was digested to acid-soluble material by the enzyme. Crosslinkage therefore equals the fraction of S1-resistant nucleotide in this kind of experiment. We alkali-denatured DNA samples crosslinked to varying degrees by varying TMP concentration at constant light exposure. We then measured crosslinkage by ethidium bromide (EtBr) fluorometry at pH 11.8; by EtBr fluorometry at neutral pH of S1 digests of the DNA; and by the fraction of radioactivity remaining acid insoluble in S1-digests of DNA labeled uniformly with [3H]deoxythymidine. These assays measure distinct physical properties of crosslinked DNA. Numerical agreement is expected only when all three measurements are accurate. Under optimum conditions, the three methods yielded identical results over the range of measurement. Using alkaline EtBr fluorescence in crude cell lysates, we detected crosslinks at frequencies in the range of 1.6 X 10(-7) per base pair. These levels were compatible with cell survival, attesting to the sensitivity of the measurement system. Crosslinkage affected hybridization as well. One crosslink prevented all alkali-denatured DNA contiguous in both strands with it from hybridizing to complementary DNA either on solid supports or in solution. Strand-length effects on crosslinkage and on reassociation caused solution hybridization levels to exceed those predicted by simple theory. In a quantitative, dot-blotting assay hybridization was linear up to membrane saturation by denatured, uncrosslinked DNA of any strand length.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

We have critically evaluated various modifications of the alkaline elution methodology that were required to adapt the method for measuring DNA damage in cells from animal tissues treated in vivo. These modifications involved the use of a fluorometric assay for the eluted DNA using the dye Hoechst 33258, which in turn required the use of a different combination of filter and lysis conditions than those used in conventional assays. This protocol was compared with the conventional protocols by examining the DNA damage produced in cultured Chinese hamster ovary cells after treatment with three agents (gamma-rays, cis-dichlorodiammineplatinum (DDP) and trans-DDP) that differ widely in the type and repairability of the DNA lesions that they induce. For both gamma-rays and trans-DDP, the results obtained by the various protocols were equivalent with respect to the amount, type, and rate of repair of the DNA damage produced. On the other hand, for cis-DDP, where the repair time for DNA crosslinks was significantly long relative to the cell-cycle time, DNA replication appeared to be a potentially complicating factor in the measurement of crosslink repair. However, even after treatment of rapidly dividing cultured cells, where any discrepancy between the radioactivity and Hoechst assays due to DNA replication should be maximal, the resulting difference in the amount of repair measured using the two assays was relatively small. Finally, in experiments using cis-DDP and trans-DDP, the data suggested that when polycarbonate and polyvinyl chloride filters were compared using the same cell lysis conditions, their relative sensitivity to detect DNA-protein versus DNA-interstrand crosslinking were comparable. The modified alkaline elution protocol for the measurement of DNA damage in vivo therefore appears, in most cases, to produce results comparable with those obtained by the conventional protocols. 相似文献

1,2-Diaminocyclohexanedichloroplatinum(II) (DCDP) is an analogue of the clinically efficacious cancer chemotherapeutic drug cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) (cis-DDP). DCDP is presently undergoing clinical trials at least in part because a cis-DDP-resistant murine leukemia L1210 cell line is sensitive to its action. The alkaline elution technique was used to measure DNA-protein and DNA-interstrand crosslinks induced by DCDP in sensitive and resistant L1210 cells. This was compared to the action of cis-DDP and its clinically ineffective isomer trans-DDP. The action of DCDP was similar to that for cis-DDP with maximum crosslinking occurring between 6 and 12 h after a 1 h treatment. Both cis-DDP and DCDP exhibited proportionately higher levels of interstrand crosslinking than trans-DDP. Near complete removal of both classes of DCDP-induced crosslinks was seen by 72 h. While the extent of crosslinking was different for each compound, little difference between the two cell lines was noted with respect to crosslinking by either DCDP or trans-DDP. These cell lines exhibit a 2-fold resistance to both DCDP and trans-DDP and at equitoxic doses of both drugs the resistant cells demonstrated twice the interstrand crosslinks that were seen in the sensitive cells. The extent of crosslinking related directly to the concentration of drug. When treated with equitoxic doses of DCDP, cis-DDP or trans-DDP, the resistant cells consistently exhibited more interstrand crosslinks than sensitive cells, suggesting the existence of a more critical cytotoxic lesion which was not detectable by the alkaline elution technique. These lesions could be either intrastrand crosslinks or monofunctional platination. Resistance must be due to a differential sensitivity to the lesions that form, which may be due to an altered capacity to repair the lesions. 相似文献
