Role of Metastasis-Related Genes in Cisplatin Chemoresistance in Gastric Cancer. Int J Mol Sci 2019; 21:ijms21010254. [PMID: 31905926 PMCID: PMC6981396 DOI: 10.3390/ijms21010254] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/09/2019] [Revised: 12/23/2019] [Accepted: 12/26/2019] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
The role of metastasis-related genes in cisplatin (CDDP) chemoresistance in gastric cancer is poorly understood. Here, we examined the expression of four metastasis-related genes (namely, c-met, HMGB1, RegIV, PCDHB9) in 39 cases of gastric cancer treated with neoadjuvant therapy with CDDP or CDDP+5-fluorouracil and evaluated its association with CDDP responsiveness. Comparison of CDDP-sensitive cases with CDDP-resistant cases, the expression of c-met, HMGB1, and PCDHB9 was correlated with CDDP resistance. Among them, the expression of HMGB1 showed the most significant correlation with CDDP resistance in multivariate analysis. Treatment of TMK-1 and MKN74 human gastric cancer cell lines with ethyl pyruvate (EP) or tanshinone IIA (TAN), which are reported to inhibit HMGB1 signaling, showed a 4–5-fold increase in inhibition by CDDP. Treatment with EP or TAN also suppressed the expression of TLR4 and MyD88 in the HMGB1 signal transduction pathway and suppressed the activity of NFκB in both cell lines. These results suggest that the expression of these cancer metastasis-related genes is also related to anticancer drug resistance and that suppression of HMGB1 may be particularly useful for CDDP sensitization.

Abstract
Complex genetic and physiological variations as well as environmental factors that drive emergence of chromosomal instability, development of unscheduled cell death, skewed differentiation, and altered metabolism are central to the pathogenesis of human diseases and disorders. Understanding the molecular bases for these processes is important for the development of new diagnostic biomarkers, and for identifying new therapeutic targets. In 1973, a group of non-histone nuclear proteins with high electrophoretic mobility was discovered and termed high-mobility group (HMG) proteins. The HMG proteins include three superfamilies termed HMGB, HMGN, and HMGA. High-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), the most abundant and well-studied HMG protein, senses and coordinates the cellular stress response and plays a critical role not only inside of the cell as a DNA chaperone, chromosome guardian, autophagy sustainer, and protector from apoptotic cell death, but also outside the cell as the prototypic damage associated molecular pattern molecule (DAMP). This DAMP, in conjunction with other factors, thus has cytokine, chemokine, and growth factor activity, orchestrating the inflammatory and immune response. All of these characteristics make HMGB1 a critical molecular target in multiple human diseases including infectious diseases, ischemia, immune disorders, neurodegenerative diseases, metabolic disorders, and cancer. Indeed, a number of emergent strategies have been used to inhibit HMGB1 expression, release, and activity in vitro and in vivo. These include antibodies, peptide inhibitors, RNAi, anti-coagulants, endogenous hormones, various chemical compounds, HMGB1-receptor and signaling pathway inhibition, artificial DNAs, physical strategies including vagus nerve stimulation and other surgical approaches. Future work further investigating the details of HMGB1 localization, structure, post-translational modification, and identification of additional partners will undoubtedly uncover additional secrets regarding HMGB1's multiple functions.

Abstract
The presence of DNA-unwinding elements (DUEs) at eukaryotic replicators has raised the question of whether these elements contribute to origin activity by their intrinsic helical instability, as protein-binding sites, or both. We used the human c-myc DUE as bait in a yeast one-hybrid screen and identified a DUE-binding protein, designated DUE-B, with a predicted mass of 23.4 kDa. Based on homology to yeast proteins, DUE-B was previously classified as an aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase; however, the human protein is approximately 60 amino acids longer than its orthologs in yeast and worms and is primarily nuclear. In vivo, chromatin-bound DUE-B localized to the c-myc DUE region. DUE-B levels were constant during the cell cycle, although the protein was preferentially phosphorylated in cells arrested early in S phase. Inhibition of DUE-B protein expression slowed HeLa cell cycle progression from G1 to S phase and induced cell death. DUE-B extracted from HeLa cells or expressed from baculovirus migrated as a dimer during gel filtration and co-purified with ATPase activity. In contrast to endogenous DUE-B, baculovirus-expressed DUE-B efficiently formed high molecular mass complexes in Xenopus egg and HeLa extracts. In Xenopus extracts, baculovirus-expressed DUE-B inhibited chromatin replication and replication protein A loading in the presence of endogenous DUE-B, suggesting that differential covalent modification of these proteins can alter their effect on replication. Recombinant DUE-B expressed in HeLa cells restored replication activity to egg extracts immunodepleted with anti-DUE-B antibody, suggesting that DUE-B plays an important role in replication in vivo.

Abstract
Replication protein A (RPA) is a heterotrimeric protein required for many DNA metabolic functions, including replication, recombination, and nucleotide excision repair (NER). We report the pre-steady-state kinetic analysis of RPA-binding DNA substrates using a stopped-flow assay to elucidate the kinetics of DNA damage recognition. The bimolecular association rate, k(on), for RPA binding to duplex DNA substrates is greatest for a 1,3d(GXG), intermediate for a 1,2d(GpG) cisplatin-DNA adduct, and least for an undamaged duplex DNA substrate. RPA displays a decreased k(on) and an increased k(off) for a single-stranded DNA substrate containing a single 1,2d(GpG) cisplatin-DNA adduct compared with an undamaged DNA substrate. The k(on) for RPA-binding single-stranded polypyrimidine sequences appears to be diffusion-limited. There is minimal difference in k(on) for varying length DNA substrates; therefore, the difference in equilibrium binding affinity is mainly attributed to the k(off). The k(on) for a purine-rich 30-base DNA is reduced by a factor of 10 compared with a pyrimidine-rich DNA of identical length. These results provide insight into the mechanism of RPA-DNA binding and are consistent with RPA recognition of DNA-damage playing a critical role in NER.

Abstract
Cisplatin is a widely used anticancer drug, but its application is limited due to severe side effects. To reduce these effects, many other platinum drugs have been synthesized. In the present work comparative analysis of the toxicity of cisplatin, oxoplatin, and a conjugate (NH(3))(2)Pt(SeO(3)) (Se-Pt) in terms of cell viability, DNA binding, and DNA damage and repair in human lymphocytes was performed using the Trypan blue exclusion test, atomic absorption spectroscopy, and the comet assay, respectively. Cisplatin and oxoplatin did not cause a significant change in the viability of the lymphocytes even at the highest used concentration (750 microM), but the conjugate dramatically diminished viability at 100 microM only about 60% of the lymphocytes were viable (P < 0.05), and at 750 microM, less than 20% (P < 0.001). Se-Pt bound to isolated DNA was about 100 times weaker than the remaining two compounds; the binding of cisplatin was about 30% stronger than oxoplatin. Cisplatin and oxoplatin formed crosslinks with DNA in lymphocytes, whereas the conjugate induced DNA strand breaks. The lesions evoked by cisplatin and oxoplatin were slowly removed, but damage induced by Se-Pt was not repaired after 5 h even at a drug concentration of 10 microM. Severe cytotoxic and genotoxic effects exerted by Se-Pt in normal human lymphocytes preclude its intravenous application in cancer therapy. Teratogenesis Carcinog. Mutagen. 20:119-131, 2000.

Abstract
In this work we have examined the role of DNA ligation in the in vitro replication catalyzed by CHO crude extracts on fork-like oligonucleotide substrates containing a unique d(GpG) intrastrand cross-link produced by the antitumor drug cisplatin. We show here that this reaction involves a ligation step, which necessitates excision of the flap strand of the forked substrate. By constructing substrates in which the unannealed tail could not be degraded by a 5' exonuclease, we obtained evidence suggesting that this type of activity participates in the removal of the flap strand. Furthermore, we found that the ligation event played a predominant role in the synthesis of fully replicated products from both intact and platinated templates. Finally, we investigated whether translesion synthesis of the cisplatin lesion could occur concomitantly to ligation by monitoring the incorporation of labeled precursors downstream of the adduct. Our results are compatible with the possibility that some translesion syntheses of the Pt-d(GpG) adduct by the extracts also contributed to the generation of full length molecules.

Abstract
Replication protein A (RPA) is a heterotrimeric protein composed of 70-, 34-, and 14-kDa subunits that has been shown to be required for DNA replication, repair, and homologous recombination. We have previously shown preferential binding of recombinant human RPA (rhRPA) to duplex cisplatin-damaged DNA compared with the control undamaged DNA (Patrick, S. M., and Turchi, J. J. (1998) Biochemistry 37, 8808-8815). Here we assess the binding of rhRPA to DNA containing site-specific cisplatin-DNA adducts. rhRPA is shown to bind 1.5-2-fold better to a duplex 30-base pair substrate containing a single 1,3d(GpXpG) compared with a 1,2d(GpG) cisplatin-DNA intrastrand adduct, consistent with the difference in thermal stability of DNA containing each adduct. Consistent with these data, a 21-base pair DNA substrate containing a centrally located single interstrand cisplatin cross-link resulted in less binding than to the undamaged control DNA. A series of experiments measuring rhRPA binding and concurrent DNA denaturation revealed that rhRPA binds duplex cisplatin-damaged DNA via the generation of single-stranded DNA. Single-strand DNA binding experiments show that rhRPA binds 3-4-fold better to an undamaged 24-base DNA compared with the same substrate containing a single 1,2d(GpG) cisplatin-DNA adduct. These data are consistent with a low affinity interaction of rhRPA with duplex-damaged DNA followed by the generation of single-stranded DNA and then high affinity binding to the undamaged DNA strand.
