Abstract
PARP1 initiates DNA repair pathways including single-strand break repair (SSBR) by recruiting multiple DNA repair factors via poly ADP-ribosylation (PARylation) of target proteins. However, how PARP1 is stabilized and activated to promote DNA damage repair remains unclear. Here we report that DNA damage generates a ROS signal, which triggers USP10 to interact with and stabilize PARP1 by deubiquitinating the K418 site in an ATM-dependent manner. In turn, PARP1 mediates PARylation of USP10 at amino acid residues D634, D645, and E648, which further promotes the deubiquitination activity of USP10 and DNA damage response to form a positive feedback loop. PARP1 is highly expressed in breast cancer tissues and positively correlates with USP10 protein levels. Moreover, breast cancer cells treated with a USP10 inhibitor show increased sensitivity to PARP1 inhibitor both in vivo and in vitro. Overall, our results unravel that the deubiquitination-PARylation positive feedback loop of the USP10-PARP1 axis promotes DNA damage repair, which might contribute to the improvement of PARP1 inhibitor efficacy in breast cancer treatment.

Abstract
Cancer cells with breast cancer susceptibility gene (BRCA) mutations inevitably acquire resistance to PARP inhibitors (PARPi), and new strategies to maximize the efficacy of PARPi are urgently needed for the treatment of patients with BRCA1/2-mutant cancers. Here, we provide evidence that DNMT1 plays essential roles in DNA repair and the maintenance of replication fork stability by associating with the RPA complex and the SFPQ/NONO/FUS complex. DNMT1 depletion impairs RPA1 recruitment to stalled replication forks and inhibits DNA‒RNA hybrid (R-loop) resolution as well as the retention of RPA1 and SFPQ/NONO/FUS complexes at double-stranded DNA breaks (DSBs). Moreover, PARP1 activity is required for DNMT1 retention at DSB sites by modulating its protein stability, which is tightly and dynamically regulated by PARP1-mediated PARylation and PARG- and NUDT16-mediated dePARylation. DNMT1 PARylation further recruits the E3 ubiquitin ligase CHFR to enhance its ubiquitination and target it for proteasome-dependent degradation. Notably, DNMT1 is also required for irradiation (IR)-mediated and PARPi-induced activation of the G2 arrest checkpoint. The combination of DNMT1i with PARPi significantly attenuates PARPi-induced ATR-Chk1 signaling and enhances the degradation of the stalled replication fork mediated by PARPi, resulting in increased chromosomal aberrations and cell death in BRCA-proficient and BRCA-deficient cancer cells. Therefore, our findings provide novel insights into the mechanism by which DNMT1 inhibitors (DNMT1i) reverse PARPi resistance and indicate that targeting the PARP-DNMT1 pathway is a promising strategy for cancer therapy.

Abstract
RATIONALE Rapid adaptation to stressful events is essential for survival and requires acute stress response and stress-coping strategy. However, the molecular mechanisms that govern this coping strategy have yet to be fully discovered. OBJECTIVES This study aims to investigate the effects of poly ADP-ribosylation (PARylation) on stress-coping strategies following acute stress and to identify the target genes influenced by Parp1-induced histone PARylation. METHODS Mice were subjected to a forced swim test, a well-established acute stress paradigm, to evaluate cortical PARylation and assess the expression of activity-dependent genes. The pharmacological inhibition of Parp1 was conducted using ABT888 (Veliparib) to determine its effects on stress-coping behavior and related molecular changes. RESULTS The forced swim test increased cortical PARylation and upregulated the expression of activity-dependent genes. Systemic inhibition of Parp1 with ABT888 led to impaired stress-coping behavior, evidenced by a reduced immobility response during a subsequent forced swim test done 24 hours later. This impairment was associated with decreased chromatin PARylation and histone H4 acetylation at the Arc promoter and reduced Arc expression observed one hour after Parp1 inhibition. CONCLUSION Our findings indicate that chromatin PARylation at the Arc promoters regulates histone H4 acetylation and Arc gene expression, and a subsequent impact on successful stress-coping behavior in response to acute stress.

Abstract
Poly-ADP-ribosylation (PARylation) is a reversible posttranslational modification that occurs in higher eukaryotes. While thousands of PARylated substrates have been identified, the specific biological functions of most PARylated proteins remain elusive. PARylation stoichiometry is a critical parameter to assess the potential functions of a PARylated protein. Here, we developed a large-scale strategy to measure the absolute stoichiometries of protein PARylation. By integrating mild cell lysis, boronate enrichment and carefully designed titration experiments, we were able to determine the PARylation stoichiometries for a total of 235 proteins. This approach enables the capture of all PARylation events on various amino acid acceptors. We revealed that PARylation occupancy spans over three orders of magnitude. However, most PARylation events occur at low stoichiometric values (median 0.578%). Notably, we observed that high stoichiometry PARylation (>1%) predominantly targets proteins involved in transcription regulation and chromatin remodeling. Thus, our study provides a systems-scale, quantitative view of PARylation stoichiometries under genotoxic conditions, which serves as invaluable resources for future functional studies of this important protein posttranslational modification.

Abstract
The cellular enzyme poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) is required for NF-κB to activate inflammatory and immune response gene expression. NF-κB is also an important transcription factor in HIV-1 gene expression during active replication and latency reactivation. Therefore, enhancing NF-κB signaling is an alternative for HIV-1 latency reactivation, but significant systemic side effects related to the NF-κB role in inflammatory and immune responses are predictable. To verify this prediction, we determined whether PARP-1 is required in NF-κB-dependent HIV-1 gene expression in a human CD4+ T lymphoblastoid cell line (SUP-T1) and HEK 293T cells. Our findings indicated that PARP-1 knockout does not impair HIV-1 infection or gene expression. Specifically, NF-κB-dependent HIV-1 gene expression was not impaired by PARP-1 deficiency, highlighting an important transcriptional regulatory difference between HIV-1 and inflammatory and immune activation genes. Our findings define a negligible role of PARP-1 in HIV-1 gene expression, suggesting that PARP-1 antagonism could ameliorate the expected inflammatory response with latency-reactivating agents that act through the NF-κB signaling pathway.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is an aggressive hematological neoplasm. Little improvement in survival rates has been achieved over the past few decades. Necroptosis has relationship with certain types of malignancies outcomes. Here, we evaluated the diagnostic ability, prognostic capacity of necroptosis-related genes (NRGs) and the effect of their copy number variations (CNVs) in AML. METHODS Necroptosis-related differentially expressed genes (NRDEGs) were identified after intersecting differentially expressed genes (DEGs) from the Gene Expression Omnibus(GEO) database with NRGs from GeneCards, the Molecular Signatures Database (MSigDB) and literatures. Machine learning was applied to obtain hub-NRDEGs. The expression levels of the hub-NRDEGs were validated in vitro. The mRNA-miRNA and mRNA-TF interaction networks with the hub-NRDEGs were screened using Cytoscape@. Single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA) was utilized to calculate correlations between the hub-NRDEGs and immune cells. CNV analysis of the hub-NRDEGs was carried out on the TCGA-LAML datasets from the TCGA database. Kaplan-Meier (K-M) survival analyses were utilized to evaluate the prognostic values along with Cox model. RESULTS Six hub-NRDEGs (SLC25A5, PARP1, CTSS, ZNF217, NFKB1, and PYGL) were obtained and their expression changes derived from CNVs in AML were visualized. In total, 65 mRNA-miRNA and 80 mRNA-TF interaction networks with hub-NRDEGs were screened. The ssGSEA result showed the expression of RAPR1 was inversely related to CD56dim natural killer cells and the expression of CTSS was positive related to Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) in AML. The K-M results demonstrated that ZNF217 had significant difference in the duration of survival in AML patients. Cox regression models revealed that the hub-NRDEGs had better predictive power at year-1 and year-5. CONCLUSION These screened NRDEGs can be exploited as clinical prognostic predictions in AML patients, as well as potential biomarkers for diagnosis and therapeutic targeting.

Abstract
PARP (poly-ADP ribose polymerase) has received widespread attention in cancer treatment. Research has shown that PARP plays a crucial role in DNA damage repair and has become a popular target for drug design. Based on the mechanism of "synthetic lethality", multiple PARPis (PARP inhibitors) have been launched for the treatment of BRCA deficient tumors. For example, the approved PARPis have shown significant potential in cancer treatment, particularly in breast cancer and cancers associated with BRCA1/BRCA2 deficiencies. However, the clinical efficacy and safety of PARP inhibitors in different cancers remain issues that cannot be overlooked. The design of PARPis aims to eliminate their resistance and broaden their application scope. Designing selective PARP-1 inhibitors is also a potential strategy. PROTACs (Proteolysis Targeting Chimeras) to degrade PARP have become a potential novel cancer treatment strategy.

Abstract
Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1) serves as a transcriptional co-regulator and has been playing an important role in various inflammatory diseases. In the present study, we investigated the role and underlying mechanisms of action of PARP-1 in inflammatory pain. Intraplantar injection of complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) was administered to the rats to induce inflammatory pain. Immunofluorescence, Western blotting, co-immunoprecipitation, and chromatin immunoprecipitation-quantitative polymerase chain reaction were performed to investigate the underlying mechanisms. Our results showed that CFA injection led to an increase in the production and activation of PARP-1 in both the L4/5 dorsal root ganglions (DRGs) and the spinal dorsal horn. Repeated intrathecal injections of Tiq-A or 5-AIQ, two specific inhibitors of PARP-1, and microinjections of AAV-PARP-1 shRNA into the L5 DRG or L5 spinal dorsal horn partially prevented the development of inflammatory pain. The established inflammatory pain was attenuated by a single bolus of intrathecal injection of Tiq-A or 5-AIQ on day 7 after the CFA injection. The CFA-induced mechanical allodynia and thermal hyperalgesia in female rats were alleviated by repeated intrathecal injections of Tiq-A. Moreover, repeated intrathecal injections of 5-AIQ inhibited the binding of NF-κB with CXCL1 promoter and reduced the production of CXCL1 in both the L4/5 DRGs and L4-6 spinal dorsal horns following CFA injection. Collectively, our results indicate that CFA-induced upregulation of PARP-1 by promoting CXCL1 expression in the DRG and probably in the spinal dorsal horn contributes to the pathogenesis of inflammatory pain. Thus, PARP-1 may be a potential pharmaceutical target for the treatment of inflammatory pain.

INSECT MOLECULAR BIOLOGY 2024; 33:732-743.

Abstract
Animal silk is economically important, while silk secretion is a complex and subtle mechanism regulated by many genes. We identified the poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP1) gene of the silkworm and successfully cloned its coding sequence (CDS) sequence. Using clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR/Cas9) technology, we screened single guide RNA (sgRNA) with high knockout efficiency by cellular experiments and obtained PARP1 mutants by knocking out the PARP1 gene of the silkworm at the individual level. We found that the mutants mainly exhibited phenotypes such as smaller cocoon size and reduced cocoon shell rate than the wild type. We also detected the expression of silk protein genes in the mutant by quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) and found that the expression of some silk protein genes was slightly down-regulated. Meanwhile, together with the results of transcriptomic analysis, we hypothesized that PARP1 may affect the synthesis of silk proteins, resulting in their failure to function properly. Our study may provide an important reference for future in-depth refinement of the molecular mechanism of silk protein expression in silk-producing animals, as well as a potential idea for future development of molecular breeding lines of silkworms to improve silk production.

Abstract
Targeting DNA repair pathways is an important strategy in anticancer therapy. However, the unrevealed interactions between different DNA repair systems may interfere with the desired therapeutic effect. Among DNA repair systems, BER and NHEJ protect genome integrity through the entire cell cycle. BER is involved in the repair of DNA base lesions and DNA single-strand breaks (SSBs), while NHEJ is responsible for the repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). Previously, we showed that BER deficiency leads to downregulation of NHEJ gene expression. Here, we studied BER's response to NHEJ deficiency induced by knockdown of NHEJ scaffold protein XRCC4 and compared the knockdown effects in normal (TIG-1) and hTERT-modified cells (NBE1). We investigated the expression of the XRCC1, LIG3, and APE1 genes of BER and LIG4; the Ku70/Ku80 genes of NHEJ at the mRNA and protein levels; as well as p53, Sp1 and PARP1. We found that, in both cell lines, XRCC4 knockdown leads to a decrease in the mRNA levels of both BER and NHEJ genes, though the effect on protein level is not uniform. XRCC4 knockdown caused an increase in p53 and Sp1 proteins, but caused G1/S delay only in normal cells. Despite the increased p53 protein, p21 did not significantly increase in NBE1 cells with overexpressed hTERT, and this correlated with the absence of G1/S delay in these cells. The data highlight the regulatory function of the XRCC4 scaffold protein and imply its connection to a transcriptional regulatory network or mRNA metabolism.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors (PARPi) are a class of cancer drugs that enzymatically inhibit PARP activity at sites of DNA damage. Yet, PARPi function mainly by trapping PARP1 onto DNA with a wide range of potency among the clinically relevant inhibitors. How PARPi trap and why some are better trappers remain unknown. Here, we show trapping occurs primarily through a kinetic phenomenon at sites of DNA damage that correlates with PARPi koff. Our results suggest PARP trapping is not the physical stalling of PARP1 on DNA, rather the high probability of PARP re-binding damaged DNA in the absence of other DNA-binding protein recruitment. These results clarify how PARPi trap, shed new light on how PARPi function, and describe how PARPi properties correlate to trapping potency.

Abstract
Post-transcriptional regulation of cytokine/chemokine mRNA turnover is critical for immune processes and contributes to the mammalian cellular response to diverse inflammatory stimuli. The ubiquitous RNA-binding protein human antigen R (HuR) is an integral regulator of inflammation-associated mRNA fate. HuR function is regulated by various post-translational modifications that alter its subcellular localization and ability to stabilize target mRNAs. Both poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) have been reported to regulate the biological function of HuR, but their specific regulatory and crosstalk mechanisms remain unclear. In this study, we show that PARP1 acts via p38 to synergistically promote cytoplasmic accumulation of HuR and stabilization of inflammation-associated mRNAs in cells under inflammatory conditions. Specifically, p38 binds to auto-poly ADP-ribosylated (PARylated) PARP1 resulting in the covalent PARylation of p38 by PARP1, thereby promoting the retention and activity of p38 in the nucleus. In addition, PARylation of HuR facilitates the phosphorylation of HuR at the serine 197 site mediated by p38, which then increases the translocation of HuR to the cytoplasm, ultimately stabilizing the inflammation-associated mRNA expression at the post-transcriptional level.

Abstract
This study investigates the toxic effect of harmful materials, unfiltered by the placenta, on neonatal umbilical cord (UC) vessels, focusing on stress-induced adaptations in transcriptional and translational processes. It aims to analyze changes in pathways related to mRNA condensate formation, transcriptional regulation, and DNA damage response under maternal smoking-induced stress. UC vessels from neonates born to smoking (Sm) and nonsmoking mothers (Ctr) were examined. Immunofluorescence staining and confocal microscopy assessed the localization of key markers, including Transcription Complex Subunit 1 (CNOT1) and the largest subunit of RNA polymerase II enzyme (RPB1). Additionally, markers of DNA damage response, such as Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1, were evaluated. In Sm samples, dissolution of CNOT1 granules in UC vessels was observed, potentially aiding stalled translation and enhancing transcription via RPB1 assembly and translocation. Control vessels showed predominant cytoplasmic RPB1 localization. Despite adaptive responses, Sm endothelial cells exhibited significant damage, indicated by markers like Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1. Ex vivo metal treatment on control vessels mirrored Sm sample alterations, emphasizing marker roles in cell survival under toxic exposure. Maternal smoking induces specific molecular adaptations in UC vessels, affecting mRNA condensate formation, transcriptional regulation, and DNA damage response pathways. Understanding these intricate molecular mechanisms could inform interventions to improve neonatal health outcomes and mitigate adverse effects of toxic exposure during pregnancy.

Abstract
The ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) protein kinase is a master regulator of the DNA damage response and also an important sensor of oxidative stress. Analysis of gene expression in ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T) patient brain tissue shows that large-scale transcriptional changes occur in patient cerebellum that correlate with the expression level and guanine-cytosine (GC) content of transcribed genes. In human neuron-like cells in culture, we map locations of poly(ADP-ribose) and RNA-DNA hybrid accumulation genome-wide with ATM inhibition and find that these marks also coincide with high transcription levels, active transcription histone marks, and high GC content. Antioxidant treatment reverses the accumulation of R-loops in transcribed regions, consistent with the central role of reactive oxygen species in promoting these lesions. Based on these results, we postulate that transcription-associated lesions accumulate in ATM-deficient cells and that the single-strand breaks and PARylation at these sites ultimately generate changes in transcription that compromise cerebellum function and lead to neurodegeneration over time in A-T patients.

Abstract
ADP-ribosylation is a post-translational modification catalyzed by the enzyme family of polyadenosine diphosphate (ADP)-ribose) polymerases (PARPs). This enzymatic process involves the transfer of single or multiple ADP-ribose molecules onto proteins, utilizing nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+ ) as a substrate. It, thus, plays a pivotal role in regulating various biological processes. Unveiling PARP-selective protein targets is crucial for a better understanding of their biological functions. Nonetheless, this task proves challenging due to overlapping targets shared among PARP family members. Therefore, we applied the "bump-and-hole" strategy to modify the nicotinamide binding site of PARP1 by introducing a hydrophobic pocket ("hole"). This PARP1-mutant binds an orthogonal NAD+ (Et-DTB-NAD+ ) containing an ethyl group ("bump") at the nicotinamide moiety. Furthermore, we added a desthiobiotin (DTB) tag directly to the adenosine moiety, enabling affinity enrichment of ADP-ribosylated proteins. Employing this approach, we successfully identified protein targets modified by PARP1 in cell lysate. This strategy expands the arsenal of chemically modified NAD+ analogs available for studying ADP-ribosylation, providing a powerful tool to study these critical post-translational modifications.

Abstract
Esophageal cancer is a complex disease influenced by genetic and environmental factors. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in non-coding regions of the genome have emerged as crucial contributors to esophageal cancer susceptibility. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the role of SNPs in non-coding regions and their association with esophageal cancer. The accumulation of SNPs in the genome has been implicated in esophageal cancer risk. Various studies have identified specific locations in the genome where SNPs are more likely to occur, suggesting a location-specific response. Chromatin conformational studies have shed light on the localization of SNPs and their impact on gene transcription, posttranscriptional modifications, gene expression regulation, and histone modification. Furthermore, miRNA-related SNPs have been found to play a significant role in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). These SNPs can affect miRNA binding sites, thereby altering target gene regulation and contributing to ESCC development. Additionally, the risk of ESCC has been linked to base excision repair, suggesting that SNPs in this pathway may influence disease susceptibility. Somatic DNA segment alterations and modified expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) have also been associated with ESCC. These alterations can lead to disrupted gene expression and cellular processes, ultimately contributing to cancer development and progression. Moreover, SNPs have been found to be associated with the long non-coding RNA HOTAIR, which plays a crucial role in ESCC pathogenesis. This review concludes with a discussion of the current and future perspectives in the field of SNPs in non-coding regions and their relevance to esophageal cancer. Understanding the functional implications of these SNPs may lead to the identification of novel therapeutic targets and the development of personalized approaches for esophageal cancer prevention and treatment.

Abstract
The ATM protein kinase is a master regulator of the DNA damage response and also an important sensor of oxidative stress. Analysis of gene expression in Ataxia-telangiectasia patient brain tissue shows that large-scale transcriptional changes occur in patient cerebellum that correlate with expression level and GC content of transcribed genes. In human neuron-like cells in culture we map locations of poly-ADP-ribose and RNA-DNA hybrid accumulation genome-wide with ATM inhibition and find that these marks also coincide with high transcription levels, active transcription histone marks, and high GC content. Antioxidant treatment reverses the accumulation of R-loops in transcribed regions, consistent with the central role of ROS in promoting these lesions. Based on these results we postulate that transcription-associated lesions accumulate in ATM-deficient cells and that the single-strand breaks and PARylation at these sites ultimately generate changes in transcription that compromise cerebellum function and lead to neurodegeneration over time in A-T patients.

Abstract
Metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD) is a severe demyelinating, autosomal recessive genetic leukodystrophy, with no curative treatment. The disease is underpinned by mutations in the arylsulfatase A gene (ARSA), resulting in deficient activity of this lysosomal enzyme, and consequential accumulation of galactosylceramide-3-O-sulfate (sulfatide) in the brain. Most of the effects in the brain have been attributed to the accumulation of sulfatides in oligodendrocytes and their cell damage. In contrast, less is known regarding sulfatide toxicity in astrocytes. Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors are anti-cancer therapeutics that have proven efficacy in preclinical models of many neurodegenerative and inflammatory diseases, but have never been tested for MLD. Here, we examined the toxic effect of sulfatides on human astrocytes and restoration of this cell damage by the marketed PARP-1 inhibitor, Olaparib. Cultured human astrocytes were treated with increasing concentrations of sulfatides (5-100 μM) with or without Olaparib (100 nM). Cell viability assays were used to ascertain whether sulfatide-induced toxicity was rescued by Olaparib. Immunofluorescence, calcium (Ca2+) imaging, ROS, and mitochondrial damage assays were also used to explore the effects of sulfatides and Olaparib. ELISAs were performed and chemotaxis of peripheral blood immune cells was measured to examine the effects of Olaparib on sulfatide-induced inflammation in human astrocytes. Here, we established a concentration-dependent (EC50∼20 μM at 24 h) model of sulfatide-induced astrocyte toxicity. Our data demonstrate that sulfatide-induced astrocyte toxicity involves (i) PARP-1 activation, (ii) pro-inflammatory cytokine release, and (iii) enhanced chemoattraction of peripheral blood immune cells. Moreover, these sulfatide-induced effects were attenuated by Olaparib (IC50∼100 nM). In addition, sulfatide caused impairments of ROS production, mitochondrial stress, and Ca2+ signaling in human astrocytes, that were indicative of metabolic alterations and that were also alleviated by Olaparib (100 nM) treatment. Our data support the hypothesis that sulfatides can drive astrocyte cell death and demonstrate that Olaparib can dampen many facets of sulfatide-induced toxicity, including, mitochondrial stress, inflammatory responses, and communication between human astrocytes and peripheral blood immune cells. These data are suggestive of potential therapeutic utility of PARP inhibitors in the sphere of rare demyelinating diseases, and in particular MLD. Graphical abstract. Proposed mechanism of action of Olaparib in sulfatide-treated astrocytes. Human astrocytes treated for 24 h with sulfatides increase PARP-1 expression and die. PARP-1 overexpression is modulated by Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum, thus enhancing intracellular Ca2+ concentration. PARP-1 inhibition with Olaparib reduces Ca2+ influx and cell death. Olaparib also decreases IL-6, IL-8, IL-17, and CX3CL1 release from sulfatide-stimulated astrocytes, suggesting that PARP-1 plays a role in dampening neuroinflammation in MLD. This is confirmed by the reduction of immune cell migration such as lymphocytes, NK cells, and T cells towards sulfatide-treated astrocytes. Moreover, mitochondrial stress and ROS production induced by sulfatides are rescued by PARP-1 inhibition. Future studies will focus on the signaling cascades triggered by PARP-1-mediated currents in reactive astrocytes and Olaparib as a potential therapeutic target for MLD.

Abstract
Significance: Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) is an important molecule synthesized from tryptophan or vitamin B3 and involved in numerous cellular reactions. NAD deficiency during pregnancy causes congenital NAD deficiency disorder (CNDD) characterized by multiple congenital malformations and/or miscarriage. Studies in genetically engineered mice replicating mutations found in human patient cases show that CNDD can be prevented by dietary supplements. Recent Advances: A growing number of patient reports show that biallelic loss-of-function of genes involved in NAD de novo synthesis (KYNU, HAAO, NADSYN1) cause CNDD. Other factors that limit the availability of NAD precursors, for example, limited dietary precursor supply or absorption, can cause or contribute to NAD deficiency and result in CNDD in mice. Molecular flux experiments allow quantitative understanding of NAD precursor concentrations in the circulation and their usage by different cells. Studies of NAD-consuming enzymes and contributors to NAD homeostasis help better understand how perturbed NAD levels are implicated in various diseases and adverse pregnancy outcomes. Critical Issues: NAD deficiency is one of the many known causes of adverse pregnancy outcomes, but its prevalence in the human population and among pregnant women is unknown. Since NAD is involved in hundreds of diverse cellular reactions, determining how NAD deficiency disrupts embryogenesis is an important challenge. Future Directions: Furthering our understanding of the molecular fluxes between the maternal and embryonic circulation during pregnancy, the NAD-dependent pathways active in the developing embryo, and the molecular mechanisms by which NAD deficiency causes adverse pregnancy outcomes will provide direction for future prevention strategies.

Abstract
Metabolism, known to be temporally regulated to meet evolving energy demands, plays a crucial role in shaping developmental pace. Recent studies have demonstrated that two key proteins PARP1 and PARG play a regulatory role in the transcription of both morphogenic and metabolic genes. Intriguingly, in Drosophila, the depletion of PARP1 or PARG proteins causes a developmental arrest before pupation, resulting in individuals unable to complete their development. This phenotype highlights the critical involvement of poly(ADP-ribosyl)ating enzymes in regulating the metamorphic process. In this study, we provide compelling evidence that these enzymes intricately coordinate transcriptional changes in both developmental and metabolic pathways during metamorphosis. Specifically, they promote the expression of genes crucial for pupation, while simultaneously negatively regulating the expression of metabolic genes before the transition to the pupal stage. Additionally, these enzymes suppress the expression of genes that are no longer required during this transformative period. Our findings shed light on the intricate interplay between poly(ADP-ribosyl)ating enzymes, developmental processes, and metabolic regulation before metamorphosis and highlight a new role of poly(ADP-ribosyl)ating enzymes in the global regulation of transcription.

Abstract
Elucidation of the cellular changes that occur in degenerating photoreceptors of people with inherited retinal diseases (IRDs) has been a focus for many research teams, leading to numerous theories on how these changes affect the cell death process. What is clearly emerging from these studies is that there are common denominators across multiple models of IRD, regardless of the underlying genetic mutation. These common markers could open avenues for broad neuroprotective therapeutics to prevent photoreceptor loss and preserve functional vision. In recent years, the role of epigenetic modifications contributing to the pathology of IRDs has been a particular point of interest, due to many studies noting changes in these epigenetic modifications, which coincide with photoreceptor cell death. This review will discuss the two broad categories of epigenetic changes, DNA methylation and histone modifications, that have received particular attention in IRD models. We will review the altered epigenetic regulatory events that are believed to contribute to cell death in IRDs and discuss the therapeutic potential of targeting these alterations.

Abstract
Lung cancer as the leading cause of cancer related mortality is always one of the main global health challenges. Despite the recent progresses in therapeutic methods, the mortality rate is still significantly high among lung cancer patients. A wide range of therapeutic methods including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgery are used to treat lung cancer. Doxorubicin (DOX) and Paclitaxel (TXL) are widely used as the first-line chemotherapeutic drugs in lung cancer. However, there is a significant high percentage of DOX/TXL resistance in lung cancer patients, which leads to tumor recurrence and metastasis. Considering, the side effects of these drugs in normal tissues, it is required to clarify the molecular mechanisms of DOX/TXL resistance to introduce the efficient prognostic and therapeutic markers in lung cancer. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have key roles in regulation of different pathophysiological processes including cell division, apoptosis, migration, and drug resistance. MiRNA deregulations are widely associated with chemo resistance in various cancers. Therefore, considering the importance of miRNAs in chemotherapy response, in the present review, we discussed the role of miRNAs in regulation of DOX/TXL response in lung cancer patients. It has been reported that miRNAs mainly induced DOX/TXL sensitivity in lung tumor cells by the regulation of signaling pathways, autophagy, transcription factors, and apoptosis. This review can be an effective step in introducing miRNAs as the non-invasive prognostic markers to predict DOX/TXL response in lung cancer patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prostate cancer (PCa) is a prevalent malignant disease affecting a significant number of males globally. Elevated expression of the Bloom's syndrome protein (BLM) helicase has emerged as a promising cancer biomarker, being associated with the onset and progression of PCa. Nevertheless, the precise molecular mechanisms governing BLM regulation in PCa remain elusive. METHODS The expression of BLM in human specimens was analyzed using immnohistochemistry (IHC). A 5'-biotin-labeled DNA probe containing the promoter region of BLM was synthesized to pull down BLM promoter-binding proteins. Functional studies were conducted using a range of assays, including CCK-8, EdU incorporation, clone formation, wound scratch, transwell migration, alkaline comet assay, xenograft mouse model, and H&E staining. Mechanistic studies were carried out using various techniques, including streptavidin-agarose-mediated DNA pull-down, mass spectrometry (MS), immunofluorescence (IF), dual luciferase reporter assay system, RT-qPCR, ChIP-qPCR, co-immunoprecipitation (co-IP), and western blot. RESULTS The results revealed significant upregulation of BLM in human PCa tissues, and its overexpression was associated with an unfavorable prognosis in PCa patients. Increased BLM expression showed significant correlations with advanced clinical stage (P = 0.022) and Gleason grade (P = 0.006). In vitro experiments demonstrated that BLM knockdown exerted inhibitory effects on cell proliferation, clone formation, invasion, and migration. Furthermore, PARP1 (poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase 1) was identified as a BLM promoter-binding protein. Further investigations revealed that the downregulation of PARP1 led to increased BLM promoter activity and expression, while the overexpression of PARP1 exerted opposite effects. Through mechanistic studies, we elucidated that the interaction between PARP1 and HSP90AB1 (heat shock protein alpha family class B) enhanced the transcriptional regulation of BLM by counteracting the inhibitory influence of PARP1 on BLM. Furthermore, the combination treatment of olaparib with ML216 demonstrated enhanced inhibitory effects on cell proliferation, clone formation, invasion, and migration. It also induced more severe DNA damage in vitro and exhibited superior inhibitory effects on the proliferation of PC3 xenograft tumors in vivo. CONCLUSIONS The results of this study underscore the significance of BLM overexpression as a prognostic biomarker for PCa, while also demonstrating the negative regulatory impact of PARP1 on BLM transcription. The concurrent targeting of BLM and PARP1 emerges as a promising therapeutic approach for PCa treatment, holding potential clinical significance.

Abstract
Cellular metabolism (or energetics) and epigenetics are tightly coupled cellular processes. It is arguable that of all the described cancer hallmarks, dysregulated cellular energetics and epigenetics are the most tightly coregulated. Cellular metabolic states regulate and drive epigenetic changes while also being capable of influencing, if not driving, epigenetic reprogramming. Conversely, epigenetic changes can drive altered and compensatory metabolic states. Cancer cells meticulously modify and control each of these two linked cellular processes in order to maintain their tumorigenic potential and capacity. This review aims to explore the interplay between these two processes and discuss how each affects the other, driving and enhancing tumorigenic states in certain contexts.

Abstract
PARP2 is a member of the PARP enzyme family. Although, PARP2 plays role in DNA repair, it has regulatory roles in mitochondrial and lipid metabolism, it has pivotal role in bringing about the adverse effects of pharmacological PARP inhibitors. Previously, we showed that the ablation of PARP2 induces oxidative stress and, consequently, mitochondrial fragmentation. In attempt to identify the source of the reactive species we assessed the possible role of a central regulator of cellular antioxidant defense, nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2). The silencing of PARP2 did not alter either the mRNA or the protein expression of NRF2, but changed its subcellular localization, decreasing the proportion of nuclear, active fraction of NRF2. Pharmacological inhibition of PARP2 partially restored the normal localization pattern of NRF2 and in line with that, we showed that NRF2 is PARylated that is absent in the cells in which PARP2 was silenced. Apparently, the PARylation of NRF2 by PARP2 has pivotal role in regulating the subcellular (nuclear) localization of NRF2. The silencing of PARP2 rearranged the expression of genes encoding proteins with antioxidant function, among these a subset of NRF2-dependent genes.

Abstract
Adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-ribosylation is a reversible post-translational modification catalyzed by ADP-ribosyltransferases (ARTs). ARTs transfer one or more ADP-ribose from nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) to the target substrate and release the nicotinamide (Nam). Accordingly, it comes in two forms: mono-ADP-ribosylation (MARylation) and poly-ADP-ribosylation (PARylation). ADP-ribosylation plays important roles in many biological processes, such as DNA damage repair, gene regulation, and energy metabolism. Emerging evidence demonstrates that ADP-ribosylation is implicated in host antiviral immune activity. Here, we summarize and discuss ADP-ribosylation modifications that occur on both host and viral proteins and their roles in host antiviral response.

Abstract
PURPOSE On the basis of preclinical data, we hypothesized that low doses of chemotherapy (10% of therapeutic doses) with full dose of a PARP inhibitor could have improved efficacy and tolerability. PATIENTS AND METHODS In this phase I dose-escalation study, patients with BRCA-normal advanced malignancies were assigned to either talazoparib/temozolomide or talazoparib/irinotecan. Talazoparib was dose-escalated from 500 mcg to 1 mg daily before dose escalation of temozolomide/irinotecan. The starting dose of temozolomide was 25 mg/m2/day orally on days 1 to 5 and irinotecan was 25 mg/m2/day intravenously on days 1 and 15. The primary objectives of this trial were safety and tolerability, dose-limiting toxicities (DLT), and maximum tolerated dose (MTD). RESULTS Of 40 patients enrolled, 18 (mean: 7 prior therapies) were enrolled in talazoparib + temozolomide and 22 in talazoparib + irinotecan. DLTs were hematologic in both arms, but all hematologic adverse events resolved with either treatment interruption and/or dose reductions of talazoparib. The MTDs were talazoparib 1 mg + temozolomide 37.5 mg/m2 and talazoparib 1 mg + irinotecan 37.5 mg/m2. There were four partial responses in the talazoparib + temozolomide arm and five in the talazoparib + irinotecan arm for a response rate of 23% (9/40). The pharmacokinetic profiles of talazoparib + temozolomide/irinotecan were similar to that of talazoparib monotherapy. Responses were seen independent of homologous recombination (HR) status and HR deficiency score. CONCLUSIONS These results show that talazoparib with low-dose temozolomide or irinotecan is reasonably well tolerated and demonstrates clinical activity in a wide range of cancers. Randomized trials of talazoparib with or without low-dose chemotherapy are ongoing in small cell lung cancer and ovarian cancer.

Abstract
The transcriptome is subject to rapid and massive changes during the transition between developmental stages. These changes require tight control to avoid the undesired reactivation of gene expression that is only important for previous developmental stages and, if unchecked during transition between developmental stages, could lead to anarchic proliferation and formation of malignant tumors. In this context, the involvement of chromatin factors is important since they can directly regulate the expression of multiple genes at the same time. Poly(ADP-ribose) enzymes, involved in several processes from DNA repair to transcription regulation, might play a role in this regulation. Here, we report that PARP-1 and PARG cooperate to temporally regulate the gene expression profile during the larval/pupa transition. PARP-1 and PARG are both essential in repressing the expression of genes coding for digestive enzymes and larval cuticle proteins, while PARG positively regulate the expression of defense response genes. These results suggest a cooperative coordination between PARP-1 and PARG that specifically maintains the integrity of expression profile between developmental stages.

Abstract
PARP1 is the enzyme responsible for the majority of the poly(ADP-ribose) (pADPr) synthesis in Drosophila. Its activity can be easily evaluated in vitro by measuring the level of pADPr, which allow to study the effect of potential PARP1 upstream factors on PARP1 activity. However, PARP1 activity can be challenging to measure in vivo, due to the presence of PARG, since pADPr level is a consequence of the activity of both PARP1 that synthetizes pADPr and PARG that degrades it. An increase in PARG activity can hide an increase of PARP1 activity. In this context, the effect of potential upstream factors on PARP1 activity can be hard to measure. Here, we describe a genetic background where PARG is absent to study changes in PARP1 activity at different developmental time points.

CANCER RESEARCH COMMUNICATIONS 2022; 2:1436-1444. [PMID: 36970052 PMCID: PMC10035404 DOI: 10.1158/2767-9764.crc-22-0240] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2022] [Revised: 10/24/2022] [Accepted: 10/24/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
In this analysis, we examined the relationship between progression-free survival (PFS) and mutation status of 18 homologous recombination repair (HRR) genes in patients in the non-germline BRCA-mutated (non-gBRCAm) cohort of the ENGOT-OV16/NOVA trial (NCT01847274), which evaluated niraparib maintenance therapy for patients with recurrent ovarian cancer. This post hoc exploratory biomarker analysis was performed using tumor samples collected from 331 patients enrolled in the phase III ENGOT-OV16/NOVA trial's non-gBRCAm cohort. Niraparib demonstrated PFS benefit in patients with either somatic BRCA-mutated (sBRCAm; HR, 0.27; 95% confidence interval, CI, 0.08–0.88) or BRCA wild-type (BRCAwt; HR, 0.47; 95% CI, 0.34–0.64) tumors. Patients with BRCAwt tumors with other non-BRCA HRR mutations also derived benefit from niraparib (HR, 0.31; 95% CI, 0.13–0.77), as did patients with BRCAwt/HRRwt (HRR wild-type) tumors (HR, 0.49; 95% CI, 0.35–0.70). When patients with BRCAwt/HRRwt tumors were further categorized by genomic instability score (GIS), clinical benefit was observed in patients with homologous recombination–deficient (GIS ≥ 42; HR, 0.33; 95% CI, 0.18–0.61) and in patients with homologous recombination–proficient (HRp; GIS < 42; HR, 0.60; 95% CI, 0.36–0.99) disease. Although patients with sBRCAm, other non-BRCA HRR mutations, or GIS ≥ 42 benefited the most from niraparib treatment, PFS benefit was also seen in HRp (GIS < 42) patients without HRR mutations. These results support the use of niraparib in patients with recurrent ovarian cancer regardless of BRCA/HRR mutation status or myChoice CDx GIS.
Significance:
We retrospectively evaluated the mutational profile of HRR genes in tumor samples from 331 patients from the non-germline BRCA-mutated cohort of the phase III NOVA trial of patients with platinum-sensitive high-grade serous ovarian cancer. Patients with non-BRCA HRR mutations generally benefited from second-line maintenance treatment with niraparib compared with placebo.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the association between surgical timing and postoperative residual disease status on the efficacy of niraparib first-line maintenance therapy in patients with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian cancer at high risk of recurrence. METHODS Post hoc analysis of the phase 3 PRIMA/ENGOT-OV26/GOG-3012 (NCT02655016) study of niraparib in patients with newly diagnosed primary advanced ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer with a complete/partial response to first-line platinum-based chemotherapy. Progression-free survival (PFS) was assessed by surgical status (primary debulking surgery [PDS] vs neoadjuvant chemotherapy/interval debulking surgery [NACT/IDS]) and postoperative residual disease status (no visible residual disease [NVRD] vs visible residual disease [VRD]) in the intent-to-treat population. RESULTS In PRIMA (N = 733), 236 (32.2%) patients underwent PDS, and 481 (65.6%) received NACT/IDS before enrollment. Median PFS (niraparib vs placebo) and hazard ratios (95% CI) for progression were similar in PDS (13.7 vs 8.2 months; HR, 0.67 [0.47-0.96]) and NACT/IDS (14.2 vs 8.2 months; HR, 0.57 [0.44-0.73]) subgroups. In patients who received NACT/IDS and had NVRD (n = 304), the hazard ratio (95% CI) for progression was 0.65 (0.46-0.91). In patients with VRD following PDS (n = 183) or NACT/IDS (n = 149), the hazard ratios (95% CI) for progression were 0.58 (0.39-0.86) and 0.41 (0.27-0.62), respectively. PFS was not evaluable for patients with PDS and NVRD because of sample size (n = 37). CONCLUSIONS In this post hoc analysis, niraparib efficacy was similar across PDS and NACT/IDS subgroups. Patients who had NACT/IDS and VRD had the highest reduction in the risk of progression with niraparib maintenance.

Abstract
The fate of a viral infection in the host begins with various types of cellular responses, such as abortive, productive, latent, and destructive infections. Apoptosis, necroptosis, and pyroptosis are the three major types of regulated cell death mechanisms that play critical roles in viral infection response. Cell shrinkage, nuclear condensation, bleb formation, and retained membrane integrity are all signs of osmotic imbalance-driven cytoplasmic swelling and early membrane damage in necroptosis and pyroptosis. Caspase-driven apoptotic cell demise is considered in many circumstances as an anti-inflammatory, and some pathogens hijack the cell death signaling routes to initiate a targeted attack against the host. In this review, the selected mechanisms by which viruses interfere with cell death were discussed in-depth and were illustrated by compiling the general principles and cellular signaling mechanisms of virus–host-specific molecule interactions.

Abstract
Energy generation in the brain to ameliorate energy deficit in migraine leads to oxidative stress as it is associated with reactive oxygen species (ROS) that may damage DNA and show a pronociceptive action in meninges mediated by transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily A member 1 (TRPA1). Recent studies show high levels of single-strand breaks (SSBs) at specific sites in the genome of postmitotic neurons and point at SSB repair (SSBR) as an important element of homeostasis of the central nervous system. DNA topoisomerase 1 (TOP1) is stabilized in the DNA damage-inducing state by neuronal stimulation, including cortical spreading depression. Impairment in poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1) and X-ray repair cross complementing 1 (XRCC1), key SSBR proteins, may be linked with migraine by transient receptor potential melastatin 2 (TRPM2). TRPM2 may also mediate the involvement of migraine-related neuroinflammation with PARP-1 activated by oxidative stress-related SSBs. In conclusion, aberrant activity of SSBR evoked by compromised PARP-1 and XRCC1 may contribute to pathological phenomena in the migraine brain. Such aberrant SSBR results in the lack of repair or misrepair of SSBs induced by ROS or resulting from impaired TOP1. Therefore, components of SSBR may be considered a prospective druggable target in migraine.

This overview presents recent evidence for a long-lasting PARP1 activation by a variety of signal transduction mechanisms, mediating signal-induced gene expression and chromatin remodeling. This mode of PARP1 activation has been reported in a variety of cell types, under physiological conditions. In this mechanism, PARP1 is not transiently activated by binding to DNA breaks. Moreover, damaged DNA interfered with this long-lasting PARP1 activation.

Abstract
Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) has been recognized as a prospective target for the development of novel cancer therapeutics. Several PARP-1 inhibitors are currently being considered for anticancer drug development and clinical investigation. Lately, natural compounds seem to be excellent alternative drug candidates for cancer treatment. Rauwolfia serpentina is a medicinal plant traditionally used in Indian subcontinents to treat various diseases. This study has been designed to identify the bioactive compounds derived from R. serpentina for possible binding and inhibition of PARP-1 using the molecular docking approach. Thirteen compounds were found to interact with the target with a binding affinity greater than the value of -9.0 kcal/mol. After screening the physicochemical properties, only 5 ligands (ajmalicine, yohimbine, isorauhimbine, rauwolscine, and 1,2-dihydrovomilenine) were found to obey all the parameters of Lipinski's rule of five, showed maximum drug-likeness, and possess no significant toxicity. These ligands displayed strong interactions with target PARP-1 via several hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions. Therefore, these identified compounds derived from R. serpentina can be considered for drug development against cancer-targeting PARP-1.

Abstract
ADP-ribosylation (ADPRylation) is a post-translational modification of proteins catalyzed by ADP-ribosyl transferase (ART) enzymes, including nuclear PARPs (e.g., PARP1 and PARP2). Historically, studies of ADPRylation and PARPs have focused on DNA damage responses in cancers, but more recent studies elucidate diverse roles in a broader array of biological processes. Here, we summarize the expanding array of molecular mechanisms underlying the biological functions of nuclear PARPs with a focus on PARP1, the founding member of the family. This includes roles in DNA repair, chromatin regulation, gene expression, ribosome biogenesis, and RNA biology. We also present new concepts in PARP1-dependent regulation, including PAR-dependent post-translational modifications, "ADPR spray," and PAR-mediated biomolecular condensate formation. Moreover, we review advances in the therapeutic mechanisms of PARP inhibitors (PARPi) as well as the progress on the mechanisms of PARPi resistance. Collectively, the recent progress in the field has yielded new insights into the expanding universe of PARP1-mediated molecular and therapeutic mechanisms in a variety of biological processes.

Abstract
PARP1 plays a crucial role in DNA damage repair, making it an essential target for cancer therapy. PARP1 inhibitors are widely used to treat BRCA-deficient malignancies, and six PARP inhibitors have been approved for clinical use. However, excluding the great clinical success of PARP inhibitors, the concomitant toxicity, drug resistance, and limited scope of application restrict their clinical efficacy. To find solutions to these problems, dual-target inhibitors have shown great potential. In recent years, several studies have linked PAPR1 to other primary cancer targets. Many dual-target inhibitors have been developed using structural fusion, linkage, or library construction methods, overcoming the defects of many single-target inhibitors of PARP1 and achieving great success in clinical cancer therapy. This review summarizes the advance of dual-target PARP1 inhibitors in recent years, focusing on their structural optimization process, structure-activity relationships (SARs), and in vitro or in vivo analysis results.

Abstract
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) persists in human B-cells by maintaining its chromatinized episomes within the nucleus. We have previously shown that cellular factor Poly [ADP-ribose] polymerase 1 (PARP1) binds the EBV genome, stabilizes CTCF binding at specific loci, and that PARP1 enzymatic activity correlates with maintaining a transcriptionally active latency program. To better understand PARP1's role in regulating EBV latency, here we functionally characterize the effect of PARP enzymatic inhibition on episomal structure through in situ HiC mapping, generating a complete 3D structure of the EBV genome. We also map intragenomic contact changes after PARP inhibition to global binding of chromatin looping factors CTCF and cohesin across the EBV genome. We find that PARP inhibition leads to fewer total unique intragenomic interactions within the EBV episome, yet new chromatin loops distinct from the untreated episome are also formed. This study also illustrates that PARP inhibition alters gene expression at the regions where chromatin looping is most effected. We observe that PARP1 inhibition does not alter cohesin binding sites but does increase its frequency of binding at those sites. Taken together, these findings demonstrate that PARP has an essential role in regulating global EBV chromatin structure and latent gene expression.

Abstract
The gammaherpesviruses, include the Epstein–Barr virus, Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus, and murine gammaherpesvirus 68. They establish latent infection in the B lymphocytes and are associated with various lymphoproliferative diseases and tumors. The poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP1), also called ADP-ribosyltransferase diphtheria-toxin-like 1 (ARTD1) is a nuclear enzyme that catalyzes the transfer of the ADP-ribose moiety to its target proteins and participates in important cellular activities, such as the DNA-damage response, cell death, transcription, chromatin remodeling, and inflammation. In gammaherpesvirus infection, PARP1 acts as a key regulator of the virus life cycle: lytic replication and latency. These viruses also develop various strategies to regulate PARP1, facilitating their replication. This review summarizes the roles of PARP1 in the viral life cycle as well as the viral modulation of host PARP1 activity and discusses the implications. Understanding the interactions between the PARP1 and oncogenic gammaherpesviruses may lead to the identification of effective therapeutic targets for the associated diseases.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a systemic degenerative bone disease characterized by low bone mass and damage to bone microarchitecture, which increases bone fragility and susceptibility to fracture. The risk of osteoporosis increases with age; with the aging of the global population, osteoporosis is becoming more prevalent, adding to the societal healthcare burden. Histone modifications such as methylation, acetylation, ubiquitination, and ADP-ribosylation are closely related to the occurrence and development of osteoporosis. This article reviews recent studies on the role of histone modifications in osteoporosis. The existing evidence indicates that therapeutic targeting of these modifications to promote osteogenic differentiation and bone formation may be an effective treatment for this disease.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) is a key mediator of various forms of DNA damage repair and plays an important role in the progression of several cancer types. The enzyme is activated by binding to DNA single-strand and double-strand breaks. Its contribution to chromatin remodeling makes PARP1 crucial for gene expression regulation. Inhibition of its activity with small molecules leads to the synthetic lethal effect by impeding DNA repair in the treatment of cancer cells. At first, PARP1 inhibitors (PARPis) were developed to target breast cancer mutated cancer cells. Currently, PARPis are being studied to be used in a broader variety of patients either as single agents or in combination with chemotherapy, antiangiogenic agents, ionizing radiation, and immune checkpoint inhibitors. Ongoing clinical trials on olaparib, rucaparib, niraparib, veliparib, and the recent talazoparib show the advantage of these agents in overcoming PARPi resistance and underline their efficacy in targeted treatment of several hematologic malignancies. In this review, focusing on the crucial role of PARP1 in physiological and pathological effects in myelodysplastic syndrome and acute myeloid leukemia, we give an outline of the enzyme's mechanisms of action and its role in the pathophysiology and prognosis of myelodysplastic syndrome/acute myeloid leukemia and we analyze the available data on the use of PARPis, highlighting their promising advances in clinical application.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) is an enzyme involved in DNA repair, chromatin organization and transcription. During transcription initiation, PARP1 interacts with gene promoters where it binds to nucleosomes, replaces linker histone H1 and participates in gene regulation. However, the mechanisms of PARP1-nucleosome interaction remain unknown. Here, using spFRET microscopy, molecular dynamics and biochemical approaches we identified several different PARP1-nucleosome complexes and two types of PARP1 binding to mononucleosomes: at DNA ends and end-independent. Two or three molecules of PARP1 can bind to a nucleosome depending on the presence of linker DNA and can induce reorganization of the entire nucleosome that is independent of catalytic activity of PARP1. Nucleosome reorganization depends upon binding of PARP1 to nucleosomal DNA, likely near the binding site of linker histone H1. The data suggest that PARP1 can induce the formation of an alternative nucleosome state that is likely involved in gene regulation and DNA repair.

Abstract
PARPs and tankyrases (TNKS) represent a family of 17 proteins. PARPs and tankyrases were originally identified as DNA repair factors, nevertheless, recent advances have shed light on their role in lipid metabolism. To date, PARP1, PARP2, PARP3, tankyrases, PARP9, PARP10, PARP14 were reported to have multi-pronged connections to lipid metabolism. The activity of PARP enzymes is fine-tuned by a set of cholesterol-based compounds as oxidized cholesterol derivatives, steroid hormones or bile acids. In turn, PARPs modulate several key processes of lipid homeostasis (lipotoxicity, fatty acid and steroid biosynthesis, lipoprotein homeostasis, fatty acid oxidation, etc.). PARPs are also cofactors of lipid-responsive nuclear receptors and transcription factors through which PARPs regulate lipid metabolism and lipid homeostasis. PARP activation often represents a disruptive signal to (lipid) metabolism, and PARP-dependent changes to lipid metabolism have pathophysiological role in the development of hyperlipidemia, obesity, alcoholic and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, type II diabetes and its complications, atherosclerosis, cardiovascular aging and skin pathologies, just to name a few. In this synopsis we will review the evidence supporting the beneficial effects of pharmacological PARP inhibitors in these diseases/pathologies and propose repurposing PARP inhibitors already available for the treatment of various malignancies.

Abstract
Histamine-activated histamine H1 receptor (H1R) signaling regulates many gene expressions, mainly through the protein kinase C (PKC)/extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERK) signaling. Involvement of other signaling, including NF-κB, Wnt, RUNX-2, and Rho A signaling was also demonstrated. In addition, cAMP production through the activation of H1R signaling was reported. H1R gene itself is also up-regulated by the activation of H1R signaling with histamine. Here, we review our recent findings in the molecular signaling and transcriptional regulation of the H1R gene. Stimulation with histamine up-regulates H1R gene expression through the activation of H1R in HeLa cells. The PKCδ/ERK/poly(ADP)ribosyl transferase-1 (PARP-1) signaling was involved in this up-regulation. Heat shock protein 90 also plays an important role in regulating PKCδ translocation. Promoter analyses revealed the existence of two promoters in the human H1R gene in HeLa cells. H1R-activated H1R gene up-regulation in response to histamine was also observed in U373 astroglioma cells. However, this up-regulation was mediated not through the PKCδ signaling but possibly through the PKCα signaling. In addition, the promoter region responsible for histamine-induced H1R gene transcription in U373 cells was different from that of HeLa cells. These findings suggest that the molecular signaling and transcriptional regulation of the H1R gene are different between neuronal cells and non-neuronal cells.

Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic caused by the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 (2019-nCoV) has devastated global healthcare and economies. Despite the stabilization of infectivity rates in some developed nations, several countries are still under the grip of the pathogenic viral mutants that are causing a significant increase in infections and hospitalization. Given this urgency, targeting of key host factors regulating SARS-CoV-2 life cycle is postulated as a novel strategy to counter the virus and its associated pathological outcomes. In this regard, Poly (ADP)-ribose polymerase-1 (PARP-1) is being increasingly recognized as a possible target. PARP-1 is well studied in human diseases such as cancer, central nervous system (CNS) disorders and pathology of RNA viruses. Emerging evidence indicates that regulation of PARP-1 by non-coding RNAs such as microRNAs is integral to cell survival, redox balance, DNA damage response, energy homeostasis, and several other cellular processes. In this short perspective, we summarize the recent findings on the microRNA/PARP-1 axis and its therapeutic potential for COVID-19 pathologies.

Abstract
In this work, two series of cyclic amine-containing benzimidazole carboxamide derivatives were designed and synthesized as potent anticancer agents. PARP1/2 inhibitory activity assays indicated that most of the compounds showed significant activity. The in vitro antiproliferative activity of these compounds was investigated against four human cancer cell lines (MDA-MB-436, MDA-MB-231, MCF-7 and CAPAN-1), and several compounds exhibited strong cytotoxicity to tumor cells. Among them, 2-(1-(4,4-difluorocyclohexyl)piperidin-4-yl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazole-4-carboxamide (17d) was found to be effective PARP1/2 inhibitors (IC50 = 4.30 and 1.58 nM, respectively). In addition, 17d possessed obvious selective antineoplastic activity and noteworthy microsomal metabolic stability. What's more, further studies revealed that 17d was endowed with an excellent ADME profile. These combined results indicated that 17d could be a promising candidate for the treatment of cancer.

Metabolic enzymes function as epigenetic modulators: A Trojan Horse for chromatin regulation and gene expression. Pharmacol Res 2021; 173:105834. [PMID: 34450321 DOI: 10.1016/j.phrs.2021.105834] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2021] [Revised: 08/11/2021] [Accepted: 08/16/2021] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
Epigenetic modification is a fundamental biological process in living organisms, which has significant impact on health and behavior. Metabolism refers to a set of life-sustaining chemical reactions, including the uptake of nutrients, the subsequent conversion of nutrients into energy or building blocks for organism growth, and finally the clearance of redundant or toxic substances. It is well established that epigenetic modifications govern the metabolic profile of a cell by modulating the expression of metabolic enzymes. Strikingly, almost all the epigenetic modifications require substrates produced by cellular metabolism, and a large proportion of metabolic enzymes can transfer into nucleus to locally produce substrates for epigenetic modification, thereby providing an alternative link between metabolism, epigenetic modification and gene expression. Here, we summarize the recent literature pertinent to metabolic enzymes functioning as epigenetic modulators in the regulation of chromatin architecture and gene expression.

SCIENCE ADVANCES 2021; 7:7/33/eabf3641.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) is an abundant nuclear enzyme that plays important roles in DNA repair, chromatin organization and transcription regulation. Although binding and activation of PARP1 by DNA damage sites has been extensively studied, little is known about how PARP1 binds to long stretches of undamaged DNA and how it could shape chromatin architecture. Here, using single-molecule techniques, we show that PARP1 binds and condenses undamaged, kilobase-length DNA subject to sub-piconewton mechanical forces. Stepwise decondensation at high force and DNA braiding experiments show that the condensation activity is due to the stabilization of DNA loops by PARP1. PARP inhibitors do not affect the level of condensation of undamaged DNA but act to block condensation reversal for damaged DNA in the presence of NAD+ Our findings suggest a mechanism for PARP1 in the organization of chromatin structure.

Abstract
Cell death is a key feature of neurological diseases, including stroke and neurodegenerative disorders. Studies in a variety of ischemic/hypoxic mouse models demonstrate that poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1)-dependent cell death, also named PARthanatos, plays a pivotal role in ischemic neuronal cell death and disease progress. PARthanatos has its unique triggers, processors, and executors that convey a highly orchestrated and programmed signaling cascade. In addition to its role in gene transcription, DNA damage repair, and energy homeostasis through PARylation of its various targets, PARP-1 activation in neuron and glia attributes to brain damage following ischemia/reperfusion. Pharmacological inhibition or genetic deletion of PARP-1 reduces infarct volume, eliminates inflammation, and improves recovery of neurological functions in stroke. Here, we reviewed the role of PARP-1 and PARthanatos in stroke and their therapeutic potential.

Abstract
Appreciation for the role of liquid-liquid phase separation in the functional organization of cellular matter has exploded in recent years. More recently there has been a growing effort to understand the principles of heterotypic phase separation, the demixing of multiple proteins and nucleic acids into a single functional condensate. A phase transition is termed reentrant if it involves the transformation of a system from one state into a macroscopically similar or identical state via at least two phase transitions elicited by variation of a single parameter. Reentrant liquid-liquid phase separation can occur when the condensation of one species is tuned by another. Reentrant phase transitions have been modeled in vitro using protein and RNA mixtures. These biochemical studies reveal two features of reentrant phase separation that are likely important to functional cellular condensates: (1) the ability to generate condensates with layered functional topologies, and (2) the ability to generate condensates whose composition and duration are self-limiting to enable a form of biochemical timekeeping. We relate these biochemical studies to potential cellular examples and discuss how layered topologies and self-regulation may impact key biological processes.
