8-Oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoG), arguably the most abundant base lesion induced in mammalian genomes by reactive oxygen species, is repaired via the base excision repair pathway that is initiated with the excision of 8-oxoG by OGG1. Here we show that OGG1 binds the 8-oxoG base with high affinity and that the complex then interacts with canonical Ras family GTPases to catalyze replacement of GDP with GTP, thus serving as a guanine nuclear exchange factor. OGG1-mediated activation of Ras leads t ...[more]

Project description:Accumulation of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoG) in the DNA results in genetic instability and mutagenesis, and is believed to contribute to carcinogenesis, aging processes and various aging-related diseases. 8-OxoG is removed from the DNA via DNA base excision repair (BER), initiated by 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase-1 (OGG1). Our recent studies have shown that OGG1 binds its repair product 8-oxoG base with high affinity at a site independent from its DNA lesion-recognizing catalytic site and the OGG1•8-oxoG complex physically interacts with canonical Ras family members. Furthermore, exogenously added 8-oxoG base enters the cells and activates Ras GTPases; however, a link has not yet been established between cell signaling and DNA BER, which is the endogenous source of the 8-oxoG base. In this study, we utilized KG-1 cells expressing a temperature-sensitive mutant OGG1, siRNA ablation of gene expression, and a variety of molecular biological assays to define a link between OGG1-BER and cellular signaling. The results show that due to activation of OGG1-BER, 8-oxoG base is released from the genome in sufficient quantities for activation of Ras GTPase and resulting in phosphorylation of the downstream Ras targets Raf1, MEK1,2 and ERK1,2. These results demonstrate a previously unrecognized mechanism for cellular responses to OGG1-initiated DNA BER.

Project description:To provide both an overview and evidence of the potential cause of oxidative DNA base damage and repair signaling in chronic inflammation and histological changes associated with asthma.Asthma is initiated/maintained by immunological, genetic/epigenetic, and environmental factors. It is a world-wide health problem, as current therapies suppress symptoms rather than prevent/reverse the disease, largely due to gaps in understanding its molecular mechanisms. Inflammation, oxidative stress, and DNA damage are inseparable phenomena, but their molecular roles in asthma pathogenesis are unclear. It was found that among oxidatively modified DNA bases, 8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG) is one of the most abundant, and its levels in DNA and body fluids are considered a biomarker of ongoing asthmatic processes. Free 8-oxoG forms a complex with 8-oxoG DNA glycosylase-1 and activates RAS-family GTPases that induce gene expression to mobilize innate and adaptive immune systems, along with genes regulating airway hyperplasia, hyper-responsiveness, and lung remodeling in atopic and nonatopic asthma.DNA's integrity must be maintained to prevent mutation, so its continuous repair and downstream signaling 'fuel' chronic inflammatory processes in asthma and form the basic mechanism whose elucidation will allow the development of new drug targets for the prevention/reversal of lung diseases.

Project description:Asthma is characterized by reversible airway narrowing, shortness of breath, wheezing, coughing, and other symptoms driven by chronic inflammatory processes, commonly triggered by allergens. In 90% of asthmatics, most of these symptoms can also be triggered by intense physical activities and severely exacerbated by environmental factors. This condition is known as exercise-induced asthma (EIA). Current theories explaining EIA pathogenesis involve osmotic and/or thermal alterations in the airways caused by changes in respiratory airflow during exercise. These changes, along with existing airway inflammatory conditions, are associated with increased cellular levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) affecting important biomolecules including DNA, although the underlying molecular mechanisms have not been completely elucidated. One of the most abundant oxidative DNA lesions is 8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG), which is repaired by 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase 1 (OGG1) during the base excision repair (BER) pathway. Whole-genome expression analyses suggest a cellular response to OGG1-BER, involving genes that may have a role in the pathophysiology of EIA leading to mast cell degranulation, airway hyperresponsiveness, and bronchoconstriction. Accordingly, this review discusses a potential new hypothesis in which OGG1-BER-induced gene expression is associated with EIA symptoms.

Project description:8-Oxoguanine DNA glycosylase (OGG1) initiates base excision repair of the oxidative DNA damage product 8-oxoguanine. OGG1 is bifunctional; catalyzing glycosyl bond cleavage, followed by phosphodiester backbone incision via a β-elimination apurinic lyase reaction. The product from the glycosylase reaction, 8-oxoguanine, and its analogues, 8-bromoguanine and 8-aminoguanine, trigger the rate-limiting AP lyase reaction. The precise activation mechanism remains unclear. The product-assisted catalysis hypothesis suggests that 8-oxoguanine and analogues bind at the product recognition (PR) pocket to enhance strand cleavage as catalytic bases. Alternatively, they may allosterically activate OGG1 by binding outside of the PR pocket to induce an active-site conformational change to accelerate apurinic lyase. Herein, steady-state kinetic analyses demonstrated random binding of substrate and activator. 9-Deazaguanine, which can't function as a substrate-competent base, activated OGG1, albeit with a lower Emax value than 8-bromoguanine and 8-aminoguanine. Random compound screening identified small molecules with Emax values similar to 8-bromoguanine. Paraquat-induced mitochondrial dysfunction was attenuated by several small molecule OGG1 activators; benefits included enhanced mitochondrial membrane and DNA integrity, less cytochrome c translocation, ATP preservation, and mitochondrial membrane dynamics. Our results support an allosteric mechanism of OGG1 and not product-assisted catalysis. OGG1 small molecule activators may improve mitochondrial function in oxidative stress-related diseases.

Project description:8-Oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoG) is one of the most abundant DNA base lesions induced by reactive oxygen species (ROS). Accumulation of 8-oxoG in the mammalian genome is considered a marker of oxidative stress, to be causally linked to inflammation, and is thought to contribute to aging processes and various aging-related diseases. Unexpectedly, mice that lack 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase-1 (OGG1) activity and accumulate 8-oxoG in their genome have a normal phenotype and longevity; in fact, they show increased resistance to both inflammation and oxidative stress. OGG1 excises and generates free 8-oxoG base during DNA base-excision repair (BER) processes. In the present study, we report that in the presence of the 8-oxoG base, OGG1 physically interacts with guanine nucleotide-free and GDP-bound Rac1 protein. This interaction results in rapid GDP→GTP, but not GTP→GDP, exchange in vitro. Importantly, a rise in the intracellular 8-oxoG base levels increases the proportion of GTP-bound Rac1. In turn Rac1-GTP mediates an increase in ROS levels via nuclear membrane-associated NADPH oxidase type 4. These results show a novel mechanism by which OGG1 in complex with 8-oxoG is linked to redox signaling and cellular responses.

Project description:Cellular senescence is an important factor leading to pulmonary fibrosis. Deficiency of 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase (OGG1) in mice leads to alleviation of bleomycin (BLM)-induced mouse pulmonary fibrosis, and inhibition of the OGG1 enzyme reduces the epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) in lung cells. In the present study, we find decreased expression of OGG1 in aged mice and BLM-induced cell senescence. In addition, a decrease in OGG1 expression results in cell senescence, such as increases in the percentage of SA-β-gal-positive cells, and in the p21 and p-H2AX protein levels in response to BLM in lung cells. Furthermore, OGG1 promotes cell transformation in A549 cells in the presence of BLM. We also find that OGG1 siRNA impedes cell cycle progression and inhibits the levels of telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) and LaminB1 in BLM-treated lung cells. The increase in OGG1 expression results in the opposite phenomenon. The mRNA levels of senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) components, including IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, CXCL1/CXCL2, and MMP-3, in the absence of OGG1 are obviously increased in A549 cells treated with BLM. Interestingly, we demonstrate that OGG1 binds to p53 to inhibit the activation of p53 and that silencing of p53 reverses the inhibition of OGG1 on senescence in lung cells. Additionally, the augmented cell senescence is shown in vivo in OGG1-deficient mice. Overall, we provide direct evidence in vivo and in vitro that OGG1 plays an important role in protecting tissue cells against aging associated with the p53 pathway.

Project description:Human 8-oxoguanine-DNA glycosylase (OGG1) efficiently removes mutagenic 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoGua) and 2,6-diamino-4-hydroxy-5-formamidopyrimidine when paired with cytosine in oxidatively damaged DNA. Excision of 8-oxoGua mispaired with adenine may lead to G-->T transversions. Post-translational modifications such as phosphorylation could affect the cellular distribution and enzymatic activity of OGG1. Mutations and polymorphisms of OGG1 may affect the enzymatic activity and have been associated with increased risk of several cancers. In this study, we used double-stranded oligodeoxynucleotides containing 8-oxoGua:Cyt or 8-oxoGua:Ade pairs, as well as gamma-irradiated calf thymus DNA, to investigate the kinetics and substrate specificity of several known OGG1 polymorphic variants and phosphomimetic Ser-->Glu mutants. Among the polymorphic variants, A288V and S326C displayed opposite-base specificity similar to that of wild-type OGG1, whereas OGG1-D322N was 2.3-fold more specific for the correct opposite base than the wild-type enzyme. All phosphomimetic mutants displayed approximately 1.5-3-fold lower ability to remove 8-oxoGua in both assays, whereas the substrate specificity of the phosphomimetic mutants was similar to that of the wild-type enzyme. OGG1-S326C efficiently excised 8-oxoGua from oligodeoxynucleotides and 2,6-diamino-4-hydroxy-5-formamidopyrimidine from gamma-irradiated DNA, but excised 8-oxoG rather inefficiently from gamma-irradiated DNA. Otherwise, kcat values for 8-oxoGua excision obtained from both types of experiments were similar for all OGG1 variants studied. It is known that the human AP endonuclease APEX1 can stimulate OGG1 activity by increasing its turnover rate. However, when wild-type OGG1 was replaced by one of the phosphomimetic mutants, very little stimulation of 8-oxoGua removal was observed in the presence of APEX1.

Project description:8-Oxoguanine-DNA glycosylase-1 (OGG1) is the primary enzyme for repairing 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG) via the DNA base excision repair pathway (OGG1-BER). Accumulation of 8-oxoG in the genomic DNA leads to genetic instability and carcinogenesis and is thought to contribute to the worsening of various inflammatory and disease processes. However, the disease mechanism is unknown. In this study, we proposed that the mechanistic link between OGG1-BER and proinflammatory gene expression is OGG1's guanine nucleotide exchange factor activity, acquired after interaction with the 8-oxoG base and consequent activation of the small GTPase RAS. To test this hypothesis, we used BALB/c mice expressing or deficient in OGG1 in their airway epithelium and various molecular biological approaches, including active RAS pulldown, reporter and Comet assays, small interfering RNA-mediated depletion of gene expression, quantitative RT-PCR, and immunoblotting. We report that the OGG1-initiated repair of oxidatively damaged DNA is a prerequisite for GDP → GTP exchange, KRAS-GTP-driven signaling via MAP kinases and PI3 kinases and mitogen-stress-related kinase-1 for NF-κB activation, proinflammatory chemokine/cytokine expression, and inflammatory cell recruitment to the airways. Mice deficient in OGG1-BER showed significantly decreased immune responses, whereas a lack of other Nei-like DNA glycosylases (i.e., NEIL1 and NEIL2) had no significant effect. These data unveil a previously unidentified role of OGG1-driven DNA BER in the generation of endogenous signals for inflammation in the innate signaling pathway.

Project description:The activity of DNA repair enzyme 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase (OGG1), which excises oxidized base 8-oxoguanine (8-OG) from DNA, is closely linked to mutagenesis, genotoxicity, cancer, and inflammation. To test the roles of OGG1-mediated repair in these pathways, we have undertaken the development of noncovalent small-molecule inhibitors of the enzyme. Screening of a PubChem-annotated library using a recently developed fluorogenic 8-OG excision assay resulted in multiple validated hit structures, including selected lead hit tetrahydroquinoline 1 (IC50 = 1.7 ?M). Optimization of the tetrahydroquinoline scaffold over five regions of the structure ultimately yielded amidobiphenyl compound 41 (SU0268; IC50 = 0.059 ?M). SU0268 was confirmed by surface plasmon resonance studies to bind the enzyme both in the absence and in the presence of DNA. The compound SU0268 was shown to be selective for inhibiting OGG1 over multiple repair enzymes, including other base excision repair enzymes, and displayed no toxicity in two human cell lines at 10 ?M. Finally, experiments confirm the ability of SU0268 to inhibit OGG1 in HeLa cells, resulting in an increase in accumulation of 8-OG in DNA. The results suggest the compound SU0268 as a potentially useful tool in studies of the role of OGG1 in multiple disease-related pathways.

Project description:Purpose: The aim of this study is to test whether global gene expression induced by multiple challenges with OGG1-BER product 8-oxoG in mouse airways is linked to airway remodeling. Methods: RNAs extracted from individual mouse lungs (experimental group: n=5) were pooled and a total 1 ?g RNA was used for Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) analyses on an Illumina HiSeq 1000 sequencing system. Sequence analyses were performed in duplicate. First- and second-strand synthesis, adapter ligation and amplification of the library were performed using the Illumina TruSeq Sample Preparation Kit as recommended by the manufacturer (Illumina). Library quailty was evaluated by using an Agilent DNA-1000 chip on an Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer. Library DNA templates were quantitated by qPCR using known reference standards. Cluster formation of the library of DNA templates was performed using the TruSeq PE Cluster Kit v3 (Illumina) and the Illumina cBot workstation. Paired-end, 50-base sequencing was performed with a TruSeq SBS kit v3 (Illumina) on the Illumina HiSeq 1000 by protocols defined by the manufacturer. Base call conversion to sequence reads was performed using CASAVA-1.8.2. Sequence data were analyzed with the Bowtie2, Tophat2 and GFOLD programs. Processed data are presented as reads per kilobase transcript per million (RPKM), normalized to the experimental control (RNA from saline challenged lungs) and reported as fold change (test/control). Results: We mapped an average of 31.41 million sequence reads per sample and identified 23,337 transcripts in total RNA extracted from lungs of Balb/cJ mice as described in Methods. Approximately 14% of the transcripts showed differential expression between the saline-challenged control and 8-oxoguanine-challeged mouse lungs, with a fold change ?3.0. We validated the expression changes of 18 selected EMT-related genes of interest for our studies by qRT-PCR. Hierarchical clustering followed by Protein ANalysis THrough Evolutionary Relationships database (PANTHER) analysis of differentially expressed genes was done using GENE-E online software from Broad Institute (http://www.broadinstitute.org/cancer/software/GENE-E/). Results from PANTHER analysis of upregulated transcripts (fold change ?3.0) showed overrepresentation of various biological functions (GO terms) including developmental process (GO:0032502, P=4.58E-33), system development (GO:0048731, P=9.16E-33), cellular process (GO:0009987, P= 5.52E-31), cell adhesion (GO:0007155, P= 8.63E-28) among others. Pathway analysis (PANTHER) indicated that the most overrepresented pathways were: cadherin signaling (P00012, P=6.62E-07), wnt signaling (P00057, P= 5.81E-06), integrin signaling (P00034, P= 1.09E-05) among others. In addition to gene expression analysis, we confirmed airway remodeling by histological examination (Hematoxylin and Eosin, Masson's trichrome staining) of lung sections at seven days from the last challenge (day 11). Conclusions: This is the first study showing a link between gene expression at whole-transcriptome level induced by chronic OGG1-BER (mimicked by multiple challenges with 8-oxoG) and airway remodeling, supported by histological structural changes in lungs. Balb/cJ mice (5 per group) were intranasally challenged with 8-oxoguanine (1 µM, 60 µl) for three times at days 0, 2 and 4. Control group mice were intranasally challenged with saline (60 µl). At 30, 60 and 120 min after the third challenge (day 4), mice were sacrificed and lungs were processed for RNA extraction. RNAs from individual mice within the same group were pooled and subjected to deep-sequencing analysis in duplicate using NSG on an Illumina HiSeq 1000 sequencing system. After alignment and processing, the resulting RPKM from treatment groups (8-oxoG-challenged) were normalized to control group (saline-challenged).
