The dual action of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase -1 (PARP-1) inhibition in HIV-1 infection: HIV-1 LTR inhibition and diminution in Rho GTPase activity.

ABSTRACT: Multifactorial mechanisms comprising countless cellular factors and virus-encoded transactivators regulate the transcription of HIV-1 (HIV). Since poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1) regulates numerous genes through its interaction with various transcription factors, inhibition of PARP-1 has surfaced recently as a powerful anti-inflammatory tool. We suggest a novel tactic to diminish HIV replication via PARP-1 inhibition in an in vitro model system, exploiting human primary monocyte-derived macrophages (MDM). PARP-1 inhibition was capable to lessen HIV replication in MDM by 60-80% after 7 days infection. Tat, tumor necrosis factor ? (TNF?), and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) are known triggers of the Long Terminal Repeat (LTR), which can switch virus replication. Tat overexpression in MDM transfected with an LTR reporter plasmid resulted in a 4.2-fold increase in LTR activation; PARP inhibition caused 70% reduction of LTR activity. LTR activity, which increased 3-fold after PMA or TNF? treatment, was reduced by PARP inhibition (by 85-95%). PARP inhibition in MDM exhibited 90% diminution in NF?B activity (known to mediate TNF?- and PMA-induced HIV LTR activation). Cytoskeleton rearrangements are important in effective HIV-1 infection. PARP inactivation reduced actin cytoskeleton rearrangements by affecting Rho GTPase machinery. These discoveries suggest that inactivation of PARP suppresses HIV replication in MDM by via attenuation of LTR activation, NF?B suppression and its effects on the cytoskeleton. PARP appears to be essential for HIV replication and its inhibition may provide an effective approach to management of HIV infection.

Project description:BackgroundOvarian cancer is the sixth most common cancer and seventh most common cause of cancer death in women world-wide. Three-quarters of women present when the disease has spread throughout the abdomen (stage III or IV) and treatment consists of a combination of debulking surgery and platinum-based chemotherapy. Although initial responses to chemotherapy are good, most women will relapse and require further chemotherapy and will eventually develop resistance to chemotherapy.PARP (poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase) inhibitors, are a novel type of medication that works by preventing cancer cells from repairing their DNA once they have been damaged by other chemotherapy agents. It is not clear how PARP inhibitors compare to conventional chemotherapy regimens for the treatment of ovarian cancer, with respect to survival, side effects and quality of life.ObjectivesTo determine the benefits and risks of PARP inhibitors for the treatment of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC).Search methodsWe identified randomised controlled trials (RCTs) by searching the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL 2014, Issue 4), the Cochrane Gynaecological Cancer Group Trial Register, MEDLINE (1990 to May 2014), EMBASE (1990 to May 2014), ongoing trials on www.controlled-trials.com/rct, www.clinicaltrials.gov, www.cancer.gov/clinicaltrials and the National Research Register (NRR), the FDA database and pharmaceutical industry biomedical literature.Selection criteriaWomen with histologically proven EOC who were randomised to treatment groups in trials that either compared PARP inhibitors with no treatment, or PARP inhibitors versus conventional chemotherapy, or PARP inhibitors together with conventional chemotherapy versus conventional chemotherapy alone.Data collection and analysisWe used standard Cochrane methodology. Two review authors independently assessed whether studies met the inclusion criteria. We contacted investigators for additional data, where possible. Outcomes included survival, quality of life and toxicity.Main resultsWe included four RCTs involving 599 women with EOC. Data for veliparib were limited and of low quality, due to small numbers (75 women total). Olaparib, on average, improved progression-free survival (PFS) when added to conventional treatment and when used as maintenance treatment in women with platinum-sensitive disease compared with placebo (hazard ratio (HR) 0.42, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.29 to 0.60; 426 participants ; two studies), but did not improve overall survival (OS) (HR 1.05, 95% CI 0.79 to 1.39; 426 participants; two studies). We graded this evidence as moderate quality using the GRADE approach. Olaparib was associated with more severe adverse events (G3/4) during the maintenance phase compared with controls (risk ratio (RR) 1.74, 95% CI 1.22 to 2.49; 385 participants, two studies; moderate quality evidence). Quality of life data were insufficient for meta-analysis. We identified four ongoing studies.Authors' conclusionsPARP inhibitors appear to improve PFS in women with recurrent platinum-sensitive disease. Ongoing studies are likely to provide more information about whether the improvement in PFS leads to any change in OS in this subgroup of women with EOC. More research is needed to determine whether PARP inhibitors have any role to play in platinum-resistant disease.
