Residual Cdk1/2 activity after DNA damage promotes senescence.

ABSTRACT: In response to DNA damage, a cell can be forced to permanently exit the cell cycle and become senescent. Senescence provides an early barrier against tumor development by preventing proliferation of cells with damaged DNA. By studying single cells, we show that Cdk activity persists after DNA damage until terminal cell cycle exit. This low level of Cdk activity not only allows cell cycle progression, but also promotes cell cycle exit at a decision point in G2 phase. We find that residual Cdk1/2 activity is required for efficient p21 production, allowing for nuclear sequestration of Cyclin B1, subsequent APC/CCdh1 -dependent degradation of mitotic inducers and induction of senescence. We suggest that the same activity that triggers mitosis in an unperturbed cell cycle enforces senescence in the presence of DNA damage, ensuring a robust response when most needed.

DNA damage-induced degradation of Sp1 promotes cellular senescence.

Project description:Persistent DNA damage (genotoxic stress) triggers signaling cascades that drive cells into apoptosis or senescence to avoid replicating a damaged genome. Sp1 has been found to play a role in double strand break (DSB) repair, and a link between Sp1 and aging has also been established, where Sp1 protein, but not RNA, levels decrease with age. Interestingly, inhibition ATM reverses the age-related degradation of Sp1, suggesting that DNA damage signaling is involved in senescence-related degradation of Sp1. Proteasomal degradation of Sp1 in senescent cells is mediated via sumoylation, where sumoylation of Sp1 on lysine 16 is increased in senescent cells. Taking into consideration our previous findings that Sp1 is phosphorylated by ATM in response to DNA damage and that proteasomal degradation of Sp1 at DSBs is also mediated by its sumoylation and subsequent interaction with RNF4, we investigated the potential contribution of Sp1's role as a DSB repair factor in mediating cellular senescence. We report here that Sp1 expression is decreased with a concomitant increase in senescence markers in response to DNA damage. Mutation of Sp1 at serine 101 to create an ATM phospho-null mutant, or mutation of lysine 16 to create a sumo-null mutant, prevents the sumoylation and subsequent proteasomal degradation of Sp1 and results in a decrease in senescence. Conversely, depletion of Sp1 or mutation of Sp1 to create an ATM phosphomimetic results in premature degradation of Sp1 and an increase in senescence markers. These data link a loss of genomic stability with senescence through the action of a DNA damage repair factor.

CDK1 regulates mediator of DNA damage checkpoint 1 during mitotic DNA damage.

Project description:Cells engage sophisticated programs of DNA damage response (DDR) and repair to guard against genetic mutations. Although there is significant knowledge concerning DDR in interphase cells, much less is known about these processes in mitosis. Direct interaction between MDC1, a master DDR organizer, and a marker of DNA damage, histone ?H2AX, is required to trigger robust repair. Here we show that the DNA damage-induced interaction between MDC1 and ?H2AX is attenuated in mitosis. Furthermore, inhibition in the activity of the core mitotic regulator CDK1, either by pharmacologic inhibition or siRNA attenuation, enhances MDC1-?H2AX colocalization in mitosis. Our findings offer key new insights into how DDR is controlled during mitosis.

Loss of CMTM6 promotes DNA damage-induced cellular senescence and antitumor immunity.

Project description:Recent studies have revealed that chemokine-like factor-like MARVEL transmembrane domain-containing family member 6 (CMTM6) promotes tumor progression and modulates tumor immunity by regulating programmed death-ligand 1 stability; however, its intrinsic functions and regulatory mechanisms in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) remain poorly understood. Here, we show that CMTM6 is upregulated in ccRCC tissues and is strongly associated with advanced tumor grades, early metastases, and a worse prognosis. CMTM6 depletion significantly impaired the proliferation, migration, and invasion of ccRCC cells in vitro and in xenograft mouse models in vivo. In addition, targeting CMTM6 promotes anti-tumor immunity, represented by increased infiltration of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells in syngeneic graft mouse models. Further research revealed that loss of CMTM6 triggered aberrant activation of DNA damage response, resulting in micronucleus formation and G2/M checkpoint arrest, finally leading to cellular senescence with robust upregulation of numerous chemokines and cytokines. Our findings show for the first time the novel role of CMTM6 in maintaining cancer genome stability and facilitating tumor-mediated immunosuppression, linking DNA damage signaling to the secretion of inflammatory factors. Targeting CMTM6 may improve the treatment of patients with advanced ccRCC.

DNA-damage-induced type I interferon promotes senescence and inhibits stem cell function.

Project description:Expression of type I interferons (IFNs) can be induced by DNA-damaging agents, but the mechanisms and significance of this regulation are not completely understood. We found that the transcription factor IRF3, activated in an ATM-IKK?/?-dependent manner, stimulates cell-autonomous IFN-? expression in response to double-stranded DNA breaks. Cells and tissues with accumulating DNA damage produce endogenous IFN-? and stimulate IFN signaling in vitro and in vivo. In turn, IFN acts to amplify DNA-damage responses, activate the p53 pathway, promote senescence, and inhibit stem cell function in response to telomere shortening. Inactivation of the IFN pathway abrogates the development of diverse progeric phenotypes and extends the lifespan of Terc knockout mice. These data identify DNA-damage-response-induced IFN signaling as a critical mechanism that links accumulating DNA damage with senescence and premature aging.

Spontaneous DNA damage to the nuclear genome promotes senescence, redox imbalance and aging.

Project description:Accumulation of senescent cells over time contributes to aging and age-related diseases. However, what drives senescence in vivo is not clear. Here we used a genetic approach to determine if spontaneous nuclear DNA damage is sufficient to initiate senescence in mammals. Ercc1-/∆ mice with reduced expression of ERCC1-XPF endonuclease have impaired capacity to repair the nuclear genome. Ercc1-/∆ mice accumulated spontaneous, oxidative DNA damage more rapidly than wild-type (WT) mice. As a consequence, senescent cells accumulated more rapidly in Ercc1-/∆ mice compared to repair-competent animals. However, the levels of DNA damage and senescent cells in Ercc1-/∆ mice never exceeded that observed in old WT mice. Surprisingly, levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) were increased in tissues of Ercc1-/∆ mice to an extent identical to naturally-aged WT mice. Increased enzymatic production of ROS and decreased antioxidants contributed to the elevation in oxidative stress in both Ercc1-/∆ and aged WT mice. Chronic treatment of Ercc1-/∆ mice with the mitochondrial-targeted radical scavenger XJB-5-131 attenuated oxidative DNA damage, senescence and age-related pathology. Our findings indicate that nuclear genotoxic stress arises, at least in part, due to mitochondrial-derived ROS, and this spontaneous DNA damage is sufficient to drive increased levels of ROS, cellular senescence, and the consequent age-related physiological decline.

DNA end resection, homologous recombination and DNA damage checkpoint activation require CDK1.

Project description:A single double-strand break (DSB) induced by HO endonuclease triggers both repair by homologous recombination and activation of the Mec1-dependent DNA damage checkpoint in budding yeast. Here we report that DNA damage checkpoint activation by a DSB requires the cyclin-dependent kinase CDK1 (Cdc28) in budding yeast. CDK1 is also required for DSB-induced homologous recombination at any cell cycle stage. Inhibition of homologous recombination by using an analogue-sensitive CDK1 protein results in a compensatory increase in non-homologous end joining. CDK1 is required for efficient 5' to 3' resection of DSB ends and for the recruitment of both the single-stranded DNA-binding complex, RPA, and the Rad51 recombination protein. In contrast, Mre11 protein, part of the MRX complex, accumulates at unresected DSB ends. CDK1 is not required when the DNA damage checkpoint is initiated by lesions that are processed by nucleotide excision repair. Maintenance of the DSB-induced checkpoint requires continuing CDK1 activity that ensures continuing end resection. CDK1 is also important for a later step in homologous recombination, after strand invasion and before the initiation of new DNA synthesis.

Molecular mechanisms by which oxidative DNA damage promotes telomerase activity.

Project description:Telomeres are highly susceptible to oxidative DNA damage, which if left unrepaired can lead to dysregulation of telomere length homeostasis. Here we employed single molecule FRET, single molecule pull-down and biochemical analysis to investigate how the most common oxidative DNA lesions, 8-oxoguanine (8oxoG) and thymine glycol (Tg), regulate the structural properties of telomeric DNA and telomerase extension activity. In contrast to 8oxoG which disrupts the telomeric DNA structure, Tg exhibits substantially reduced perturbation of G-quadruplex folding. As a result, 8oxoG induces high accessibility, whereas Tg retains limited accessibility, of telomeric G-quadruplex DNA to complementary single stranded DNA and to telomere binding protein POT1. Surprisingly, the Tg lesion stimulates telomerase loading and activity to a similar degree as an 8oxoG lesion. We demonstrate that this unexpected stimulation arises from Tg-induced conformational alterations and dynamics in telomeric DNA. Despite impacting structure by different mechanisms, both 8oxoG and Tg enhance telomerase binding and extension activity to the same degree, potentially contributing to oncogenesis.

miR-30 disrupts senescence and promotes cancer by targeting both p16INK4A and DNA damage pathways.

Project description:miR-30 is a microRNA frequently overexpressed in human cancers. However, the biological consequence of miR-30 overexpression in cancer has been unclear. In a genetic screen, miR-30 was found to abrogate oncogenic-induced senescence, a key tumor-suppressing mechanism that involves DNA damage responses, activation of p53 and induction of p16INK4A. In cells and mouse models, miR-30 disrupts senescence and promotes cancer by suppressing 2 targets, CHD7 and TNRC6A. We show that while CHD7 is a transcriptional coactivator essential for induction of p16INK4A in senescent cells, TNRC6A, a miRNA machinery component, is required for expression and functionality of DNA damage response RNAs (DDRNAs) that mediate DNA damage responses and p53 activation by orchestrating histone modifications, chromatin remodeling and recruitment of DNA damage factors at damaged sites. Thus, miR-30 inhibits both p16INK4A and p53, 2 key senescence effectors, leading to efficient senescence disruption. These findings have identified novel signaling pathways mediating oncogene-induced senescence and tumor-suppression, and revealed the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying the oncogenic activity of miR-30. Thus, the miR-30/CHD7/TNRC6A pathway is potentially a novel diagnostic biomarker and therapeutic target for cancer.

MAGI1 Prevents Senescence and Promotes the DNA Damage Response in ER<sup>+</sup> Breast Cancer.

Project description:MAGI1 acts as a tumor suppressor in estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer (BC), and its loss correlates with a more aggressive phenotype. To identify the pathways and events affected by MAGI1 loss, we deleted the MAGI1 gene in the ER+ MCF7 BC cell line and performed RNA sequencing and functional experiments in vitro. Transcriptome analyses revealed gene sets and biological processes related to estrogen signaling, the cell cycle, and DNA damage responses affected by MAGI1 loss. Upon exposure to TNF-α/IFN-γ, MCF7 MAGI1 KO cells entered a deeper level of quiescence/senescence compared with MCF7 control cells and activated the AKT and MAPK signaling pathways. MCF7 MAGI1 KO cells exposed to ionizing radiations or cisplatin had reduced expression of DNA repair proteins and showed increased sensitivity towards PARP1 inhibition using olaparib. Treatment with PI3K and AKT inhibitors (alpelisib and MK-2206) restored the expression of DNA repair proteins and sensitized cells to fulvestrant. An analysis of human BC patients' transcriptomic data revealed that patients with low MAGI1 levels had a higher tumor mutational burden and homologous recombination deficiency. Moreover, MAGI1 expression levels negatively correlated with PI3K/AKT and MAPK signaling, which confirmed our in vitro observations. Pharmacological and genomic evidence indicate HDACs as regulators of MAGI1 expression. Our findings provide a new view on MAGI1 function in cancer and identify potential treatment options to improve the management of ER+ BC patients with low MAGI1 levels.

Tizoxanide Promotes Apoptosis in Glioblastoma by Inhibiting CDK1 Activity.

Project description:The antiparasitic drug nitazoxanide (NTZ) has received considerable attention for its potential in cancer therapy. In this study, we demonstrate that tizoxanide (TIZ), an active metabolite of NTZ, exhibits antiglioma activity in vitro and in vivo by inducing G2/M cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. In vitro, TIZ dose-dependently inhibited the proliferation of U87, U118, and A172 human glioblastoma (GBM) cells at 48 h with IC50 values of 1.10, 2.31, and 0.73 µM, respectively. Treatment with TIZ (1 and 10 µM) also dose-dependently inhibited the colony formation of these GBM cells and accumulated ROS damage in the nucleus. In silico target fishing combined with network pharmacological disease spectrum analyses of GBM revealed that cycle-dependent kinase 1 (CDK1) is the most compatible target for TIZ and molecular docking by Molecule Operating Environment (MOE) software confirmed it. Mechanistically, TIZ inhibited the phosphorylation of CDK1 at Thr161 and decreased the activity of the CDK1/cyclin B1 complex, arresting the cell cycle at the G2/M phase. TIZ may induce apoptosis via the ROS-mediated apoptotic pathway. In vivo, TIZ suppressed the growth of established subcutaneous and intracranial orthotopic xenograft models of GBM without causing obvious side effects and prolonged the survival of nude mice bearing glioma. Taken together, our results demonstrated that TIZ might be a promising chemotherapy drug in the treatment of GBM.
