Opis:
This is a short survey of the adaptive mutation processes that arise in non- or slowly- dividing bacterial cells and includes: (i) bacterial models in which adaptive mutations are studied; (ii) the mutagenic lesions from which these mutations derive; (iii) the influence of DNA repair processes on the spectrum of adaptive mutations. It is proposed that in starved cells, likely as during the MFD phenomenon, lesions in tRNA suppressor genes are preferentially repaired and no suppressor tRNAs are formed as a result of adaptive mutations. Perhaps the most provocative proposal is (iv) a hypothesis that the majority of adaptive mutations are selected in a pre-apoptotic state where the cells are either mutated, selected, and survive, or they die.

Opis:
Idarubicin is an anthracycline antibiotic used in cancer therapy. Mitoxantrone is an anthracycline analog with presumed better antineoplastic activity and lesser toxicity. Using the alkaline comet assay we showed that the drugs at 0.01-10 μM induced DNA damage in normal human lymphocytes. The effect induced by idarubicin was more pronounced than by mitoxantrone (P < 0.001). The cells treated with mitoxantrone at 1 μM were able to repair damage to their DNA within a 30-min incubation, whereas the lymphocytes exposed to idarubicin needed 180 min. Since anthracyclines are known to produce free radicals, we checked whether reactive oxygen species might be involved in the observed DNA damage. Catalase, an enzyme inactivating hydrogen peroxide, decreased the extent of DNA damage induced by idarubicin, but did not affect the extent evoked by mitoxantrone. Lymphocytes exposed to the drugs and treated with endonuclease III or formamidopyrimidine-DNA glycosylase (Fpg), enzymes recognizing and nicking oxidized bases, displayed a higher level of DNA damage than the untreated ones. 3-Methyladenine-DNA glycosylase II (AlkA), an enzyme recognizing and nicking mainly methylated bases in DNA, increased the extent of DNA damage caused by idarubicin, but not that induced by mitoxantrone. Our results indicate that the induction of secondary malignancies should be taken into account as side effects of the two drugs. Direct strand breaks, oxidation and methylation of the DNA bases can underlie the DNA-damaging effect of idarubicin, whereas mitoxantrone can induce strand breaks and modification of the bases, including oxidation. The observed in normal lymphocytes much lesser genotoxicity of mitoxantrone compared to idarubicin should be taken into account in planning chemotherapeutic strategies.

Opis:
The eukaryotic cell encounters more than one million various kinds of DNA lesions per day. The nucleotide excision repair (NER) pathway is one of the most important repair mechanisms that removes a wide spectrum of different DNA lesions. NER operates through two sub pathways: global genome repair (GGR) and transcription-coupled repair (TCR). GGR repairs the DNA damage throughout the entire genome and is initiated by the HR23B/XPC complex, while the CSB protein-governed TCR process removes DNA lesions from the actively transcribed strand. The sequence of events and the role of particular NER proteins are currently being extensively discussed. NER proteins also participate in other cellular processes like replication, transcription, chromatin maintenance and protein turnover. Defects in NER underlay severe genetic disorders: xeroderma pigmentosum (XP), Cockayne syndrome (CS) and trichothiodystrophy (TTD).

Opis:
Anticancer activity of cisplatin (cis-diamminedichloroplatinum) is believed to result from its interaction with DNA. The drug reacts with nucleophilic sites in DNA forming monoadducts as well as intra- and interstrand crosslinks. DNA-cisplatin adducts are specifically recognized by several proteins. They can be divided into two classes. One constitutes proteins which recognize DNA damage as an initial step of the nucleotide excision and mismatch repair pathways. The other class contains proteins stabilizing cellular DNA-protein and protein-protein complexes, including non-histone proteins from the HMG (high-mobility-group) family. They specifically recognize 1,2-interstrand d(GpG) and d(ApG) crosslinks of DNA-cisplatin adducts and inhibit their repair. Many HMG-domain proteins can function as transcription factors, e.g. UBF, an RNA polymerase I transcription factor, the mammalian testis-determining factor SRY and the human mitochondrial transcription factor mtTFA. Moreover, it seems that some proteins, which probably recognize DNA-cisplatin adducts non-specifically, e.g. actin and other nuclear matrix proteins, can disturb the structural and functional organization of the nucleus and whole cell. The formation of complexes between DNA and proteins in the presence of cisplatin and the changes in the cell architecture may account for the drug cytotoxicity.

DNA repair
Opis:
Since the discovery of the first E. coli mutator gene, mutT, most of the mutations inducing elevated spontaneous mutation rates could be clearly attributed to defects in DNA repair. MutT turned out to be a pyrophosphohydrolase hydrolyzing 8-oxodGTP, thus preventing its incorporation into DNA and suppresing the occurrence of spontaneous AT→CG transversions. Most of the bacterial mutator genes appeared to be evolutionarily conserved, and scientists were continuously searching for contribution of DNA repair deficiency in human diseases, especially carcinogenesis. Yet a human MutT homologue - hMTH1 protein - was found to be overexpressed rather than inactivated in many human diseases, including cancer. The interest in DNA repair contribution to human diseases exploded with the observation that germline mutations in mismatch repair (MMR) genes predispose to hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC). Despite our continuously growing knowledge about DNA repair we still do not fully understand how the mutator phenotype contributes to specific forms of human diseases.

Opis:
Base excision repair (BER) pathway executed by a complex network of proteins is the major system responsible for the removal of damaged DNA bases and repair of DNA single strand breaks (SSBs) generated by environmental agents, such as certain cancer therapies, or arising spontaneously during cellular metabolism. Both modified DNA bases and SSBs with ends other than 3'-OH and 5'-P are repaired either by replacement of a single or of more nucleotides in the processes called short-patch BER (SP-BER) or long-patch BER (LP-BER), respectively. In contrast to Escherichia coli cells, in human ones, the two BER sub-pathways are operated by different sets of proteins. In this review the selection between SP- and LP-BER and mutations in BER and end-processors genes and their contribution to bacterial mutagenesis and human diseases are considered.

Opis:
A population study is reported in which the DNA damage induced by γ-radiation (2 Gy) and the kinetics of the subsequent repair were estimated by the comet and micronucleus assays in isolated lymphocytes of 82 healthy donors and patients with head and neck cancer before radiotherapy. The parameters of background and radiation-induced DNA damage, rate of repair, and residual non-repaired damage were measured by comet assay, and the repair kinetics for every donor were computer-fitted to an exponential curve. The level of background DNA damage before irradiation measured by comet assay as well as the level of micronuclei were significantly higher in the head and neck cancer patient group than in the healthy donors, while the parameters of repair were widely scattered in both groups. Cancer patient group contained significantly more individuals, whose irradiated lymphocytes showed high DNA damage, low repair rate and high non-repaired DNA damage level. Lymphocytes of donors belonging to this subgroup showed significantly lower inhibition of cell cycle after irradiation.

Opis:
The TEL/JAK2 chromosomal translocation (t(9;12)(p24;p13)) is associated with T cell childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The TEL/JAK2 fusion protein contains the JAK2 catalytic domain and the TEL-specific oligomerization domain. TEL-mediated oligomerization of the TEL/JAK2 proteins results in the constitutive activation of the tyrosine kinase activity. Leukemia cells expressing TEL/JAK2 tyrosine kinase become resistant to anti-neoplastic drugs. Amifostine is a pro-drug which can selectively protect normal tissues against the toxicity of anticancer drugs and radiation. investigated the effects of amifostine on idarubicin-induced DNA damage and repair in murine pro-B lymphoid BaF3 cells and BaF3-TEL/JAK2-transformed cells using alkaline single cell gel electrophoresis (comet assay). Idarubicin induced DNA damage in both cell types but amifostine reduced its extent in control non-transformed BaF3 cells and enhanced it in TEL/JAK2-transformed cells. The transformed cells did not show measurable DNA repair after exposure to amifostine and idarubicin, but cells treated only with idarubicin were able to recover within a 60-min incubation. Because TEL/JAK2-transformed cells can be considered as model cells for certain human leukemias and lymphomas we anticipate an enhancement of idarubicin cytotoxicity by amifostine in these diseases. Moreover, TEL/JAK2 tyrosine kinase might be involved in cellular response to DNA damage. Amifostine could promote apoptosis or lower the threshold for apoptosis induction dependent on TEL/JAK2 activation.

Opis:
Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) results from the t(9;22) reciprocal chromosomal translocation producing the BCR-ABL1 gene, conferring growth and proliferation advantages in the CML cells. CML progresses from chronic, often syndrome-free, to blast phase, fatal if not treated. Although the involvement of BCR-ABL1 in some signaling pathways is considered as the cause of CML, the mechanisms resulting in its progression are not completely known. However, BCR-ABL1 stimulates the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which levels increase with CML progression and induce BCR-ABL1 self-mutagenesis. Introducing imatinib and other tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) to CML therapy radically improved its outcome, but TKIs-resistance became an emerging problem. TKI resistance can be associated with even higher ROS production than in TKI-sensitive cells. Therefore, ROS-induced self-mutagenesis of BCR-ABL1 can be crucial for CML progression and TKI resistance and in this way should be taken into account in therapeutic strategies. As a continuous production of ROS by BCR-ABL1 would lead to its self-destruction and death of CML cells, there must be mechanisms controlling this phenomenon. These can be dependent on DNA repair, which is modulated by BCR-ABL1 and can be different in CML stem and progenitor cells. Altogether, the mechanisms of the involvement of BCR-ABL1 in ROS signaling can be engaged in CML progression and TKI-resistance and warrant further study.

Polimorfizm genetyczny wiąże się z występowaniem w populacji co najmniej 2 różnych alleli w danym locus z częstością większą niż 1%. Wyróżniamy m.in. polimorfizm pojedynczego nukleotydu (single nucleotide polymorphism – SNP) i polimorfizm zmiennej liczby powtórzeń tandemowych. Występowanie określonych polimorfizmów w genach kodujących enzymy naprawy DNA jest związane z szybkością i wydajnością naprawy DNA oraz może chronić lub narażać daną osobę na skutki działania określonego ksenobiotyku. Związki chemiczne takie, jak ołów, arsen i pestycydy odznaczają się dużą toksycznością. Opisano wiele różnych polimorfizmów genów kodujących enzymy naprawy DNA, które mają wpływ na skuteczność naprawy uszkodzeń DNA indukowanych przez te ksenobiotyki. W przypadku ołowiu zbadano wpływ polimorfizmów genów: APE1 (apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 – endonukleaza miejsca apurynowego/apirymidynowego) (rs1130409), hOGG1 (human 8-oxoguanine glycosylase – glikozylaza 8-oksyguaniny) (rs1052133), XRCC1 (X-ray repair cross-complementing protein group 1 – białko biorące udział w naprawie DNA przez wycinanie zasad) (rs25487), XRCC1 (rs1799782) oraz XRCC3 (X-ray repair cross-complementing protein group 3 – białko biorące udział w naprawie DNA przez rekombinację homologiczną) (rs861539). Dla arsenu przedstawiono w niniejszej pracy wyniki badań dotyczących następujących polimorfizmów: ERCC2 (excision repair cross-complementing – białko biorące udział w naprawie DNA przez wycinanie nukleotydów) (rs13181), XRCC3 (rs861539), APE1 (rs1130409) oraz hOGG1 (rs1052133). W odniesieniu do pestycydów w pracy przedstawiono zarówno osobny, jak i łączny wpływ polimorfizmów genów takich, jak XRCC1 (rs1799782), hOGG1 (rs1052133), XRCC4 (X-ray repair cross-complementing protein group 4 – białko biorące udział w naprawie DNA przez łączenie końców niehomologicznych) (rs28360135) i genu kodującego enzym detoksykacyjny paraoksonazę PON1 (paraoxonase 1) (rs662). Med. Pr. 2018;69(2):225–235
Genetic polymorphism is associated with the occurrence of at least 2 different alleles in the locus with a frequency higher than 1% in the population. Among polymorphisms we can find single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and polymorphism of variable number of tandem repeats. The presence of certain polymorphisms in genes encoding DNA repair enzymes is associated with the speed and efficiency of DNA repair and can protect or expose humans to the effects provoked by xenobiotics. Chemicals, such as lead, arsenic pesticides are considered to exhibit strong toxicity. There are many different polymorphisms in genes encoding DNA repair enzymes, which determine the speed and efficiency of DNA damage repair induced by these xenobiotics. In the case of lead, the influence of various polymorphisms, such as APE1 (apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1) (rs1130409), hOGG1 (human 8-oxoguanine glycosylase) (rs1052133), XRCC1 (X-ray repair cross-complementing protein group 1) (rs25487), XRCC1 (rs1799782) and XRCC3 (X-ray repair cross-complementing protein group 3) (rs861539) were described. For arsenic polymorphisms, such as ERCC2 (excision repair cross-complementing) (rs13181), XRCC3 (rs861539), APE1 (rs1130409) and hOGG1 (rs1052133) were examined. As to pesticides, separate and combined effects of polymorphisms in genes encoding DNA repair enzymes, such as XRCC1 (rs1799782), hOGG1 (rs1052133), XRCC4 (X-ray repair cross-complementing protein group 4) (rs28360135) and the gene encoding the detoxification enzyme PON1 paraoxonase (rs662) were reported.

Opis:
Alloxan can generate diabetes in experimental animals and its action can be associated with the production of free radicals. It is therefore important to check how different substances often referred to as free radical scavengers may interact with alloxan, especially that some of these substance may show both pro- and antioxidant activities. Using the alkaline comet assay we showed that alloxan at concentrations 0.01-50 μM induced DNA damage in normal human lymphocytes in a dose-dependent manner. Treated cells were able to recover within a 120-min incubation. Vitamins C and E at 10 and 50 μM diminished the extent of DNA damage induced by 50 μM alloxan. Pre-treatment of the lymphocytes with a nitrone spin trap, α-(4-pyridil-1-oxide)- N-t-butylnitrone (POBN) or ebselen (2-phenyl-1,2-benzisoselenazol-3(2H)-one), which mimics glutathione peroxides, reduced the alloxan-evoked DNA damage. The cells exposed to alloxan and treated with formamidopyrimidine-DNA glycosylase (Fpg) and 3-methyladenine-DNA glycosylase II (AlkA), enzymes recognizing oxidized and alkylated bases, respectively, displayed greater extent of DNA damage than those not treated with these enzymes. The results confirmed that free radicals are involved in the formation of DNA lesions induced by alloxan. The results also suggest that alloxan can generate oxidized DNA bases with a preference for purines and contribute to their alkylation.

Opis:
The loss of nerve cells and the accumulation of pathological protein deposits comprise the common features of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD). Despite our constantly broadening knowledge of the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases, the precise molecular mechanisms of the pathological processes underlying this group of diseases still remain to be unambiguously elucidated. Recently, evidence suggesting a crucial role for the oxidation stress in the development of these neurodegenerative diseases has significantly increased. An association between the accumulation of pathological protein deposits and increased generation of reactive oxygen species has been proposed in both AD and CJD. In the light of increasing evidence documenting the occurrence of DNA damage as a consequence of oxidative stress, involvement of DNA repair genes in the pathogenesis of these diseases was implicated. The product of OGG1, APE1 and XRCC1 genes play various roles in the removal of oxidative-stress-induced DNA damage, and in the protection of cells against the consequences of oxidative stress, including cell death. The enzymes comprising the DNA repair system play a significant role in maintaining an intact genome. Therefore, the dysfunction of this system or its partial impairment may lead to an accumulation of errors which ultimately lead to cell death.
Wspólną cechą choroby Alzheimera (AD) i Creutzfeldta-Jakoba (CJD) jest utrata komórek nerwowych oraz gromadzenie się w mózgu złogów nieprawidłowo zwiniętych białek. Pomimo coraz szerszej wiedzy na temat patogenezy chorób neurodegeneracyjnych precyzyjne mechanizmy molekularne procesów patologicznych w tej grupie chorób wciąż nie zostały jednoznacznie wyjaśnione. W ostatnich latach wzrosła liczba dowodów na to, że stres oksydacyjny odgrywa ważną rolę w rozwoju tych chorób neurodegeneracyjnych. Proponuje się związek pomiędzy odkładaniem nieprawidłowych form białek a wzrostem produkcji reaktywnych form tlenu, zarówno w przypadku AD, jak i CJD. W świetle licznych dowodów występowania uszkodzeń DNA wywołanych działaniem stresu oksydacyjnego postuluje się zaangażowanie genów naprawy DNA w patogenezę tych chorób. Produkty genów naprawy OGG1, APE1, XRCC1 są zaangażowane w usuwanie oksydacyjnych uszkodzeń DNA i ochronę komórki przed zgubnymi skutkami stresu oksydacyjnego, włącznie ze śmiercią komórkową. Enzymy systemu naprawy uszkodzeń DNA odgrywają istotną rolę w utrzymaniu integracji genomu. W przypadku ich całkowitego braku lub uszkodzeń w komórkach dochodzi do gromadzenia błędów, które prowadzą do śmierci komórki.

Opis:
Genotoxicity of anticancer drugs is of a special interest due to the risk of inducing secondary malignancies. Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is a recognized antioxidant and, since human diet can be easily supplemented with vitamin C, it seems reasonable to check whether it can protect against DNA-damaging effects of antitumor drugs. In the present work the ability of vitamin C to modulate cytotoxic and genotoxic effects of a cisplatin analog, conjugate (NH3)2Pt(SeO3), in terms of cell viability, DNA damage and repair in human lymphocytes was examined using the trypan blue exclusion test and the alkaline comet assay, respectively. The conjugate evoked a concentration-dependent decrease in the cell viability, reaching nearly 50% at 250 μM. (NH3)2Pt(SeO3) at 1, 10 and 30 μM caused DNA strand breaks, measured as the increase in the comet tail moment of the lymphocytes. The treated cells were able to recover within a 30-min incubation in a drug-free medium at 37°C. Vitamin C at 10 and 50 μM diminished the extent of DNA damage evoked by (NH3)2Pt(SeO3) but had no effect on the kinetics of DNA repair. The vitamin did not directly inactivate the conjugate. Lymphocytes treated with endonuclease III, which recognises oxidised pyrimidines, displayed a greater tail moment than those untreated with the enzyme, suggesting that the damages induced by the drug have, at least in part, an oxidative origin. Vitamin C can be considered a potential protective agent against side effects of antitumor drugs, but further research with both normal and cancer cells are needed to clarify this point.
