Base excision repair and double strand break repair cooperate to modulate the formation of unrepaired double strand breaks in mouse brain. Nat Commun 2024; 15:7726.

Abstract
We lack the fundamental information needed to understand how DNA damage in the brain is generated and how it is controlled over a lifetime in the absence of replication check points. To address these questions, here, we integrate cell-type and region-specific features of DNA repair activity in the normal brain. The brain has the same repair proteins as other tissues, but normal, canonical repair activity is unequal and is characterized by high base excision repair (BER) and low double strand break repair (DSBR). The natural imbalance creates conditions where single strand breaks (SSBs) can convert to double strand breaks (DSBs) and reversibly switch between states in response to oxidation both in vivo and in vitro. Our data suggest that, in a normal background of repair, SSBs and DSBs are in an equilibrium which is pushed or pulled by metabolic state. Interconversion of SSB to DSBs provides a physiological check point, which would allow the formation of unrepaired DSBs for productive functions, but would also restrict them from exceeding tolerable limits.

Abstract
The adverse use of alcohol is a serious global public health problem. Maternal alcohol consumption during pregnancy usually causes prenatal alcohol exposure (PAE) in the developing fetus, leading to a spectrum of disorders known as fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASD) and even fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS) throughout the lifelong sufferers. The prevalence of FASD is approximately 7.7 per 1,000 worldwide, and is even higher in developed regions. Generally, Ethanol in alcoholic beverages can impair embryonic neurological development through multiple pathways leading to FASD. Among them, the leading mechanism of FASDs is attributed to ethanol-induced neuroinflammatory damage to the central nervous system (CNS). Although the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear, the remaining multiple pathological mechanisms is likely due to the neurotoxic damage of ethanol and the resultant neuronal loss. Regardless of the molecular pathway, the ultimate outcome of the developing CNS exposed to ethanol is almost always the destruction and apoptosis of neurons, which leads to the reduction of neurons and further the development of FASD. In this review, we systematically summarize the current research progress on the pathogenesis of FASD, which hopefully provides new insights into differential early diagnosis, treatment and prevention for patents with FASD.

Abstract
A comprehensive theoretical investigation was performed to illuminate the influence of hydrogen bonds (H-bonds) on the obscure reaction of a hydroxyl radical (HO˙) and guanine (G) by selecting the building block of parallel triplex DNA, C(H+)GC, as the model. By mapping the energy profiles for addition and hydrogen abstraction reactions, the favorable pathway is predicted. The results reveal that in the C(H+)GC context, barrierless hydrogen abstraction from N2 of G leading to a neutral radical G(N2-H)˙ appears to become significant, but electrophilic attack by HO˙ on C8 of G resulting in 8-oxoG is the most thermodynamically favorable course. This shows a strong structural dependence due to the context constrained by the H-bond, which is dramatically different from the situation in unencumbered G. More interestingly, it proves that the stability order of resulting adduct radicals is not altered by H-bonding, but the activity for possible sites of the hydroxylation reaction changes. The significant influence of the H-bond on elementary reactions involved in the reaction is emphasized in the C(H+)GC context but is not restricted to the H-abstraction reaction. It is greatly anticipated that the present study could provide thoughtful insights into the vague hydroxyl radical-induced oxidation chemistry.

Abstract
In recent years, nucleic acids have emerged as powerful biomaterials, revolutionizing the field of biomedicine. This review explores the multifaceted applications of nucleic acids, focusing on their pivotal role in various biomedical applications. Nucleic acids, including deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA), possess unique properties such as molecular recognition ability, programmability, and ease of synthesis, making them versatile tools in biosensing and for gene regulation, drug delivery, and targeted therapy. Their compatibility with chemical modifications enhances their binding affinity and resistance to degradation, elevating their effectiveness in targeted applications. Additionally, nucleic acids have found utility as self-assembling building blocks, leading to the creation of nanostructures whose high order underpins their enhanced biological stability and affects the cellular uptake efficiency. Furthermore, this review delves into the significant role of oligonucleotides (ODNs) as indispensable tools for biological studies and biomarker discovery. ODNs, short sequences of nucleic acids, have been instrumental in unraveling complex biological mechanisms. They serve as probes for studying gene expression, protein interactions, and cellular pathways, providing invaluable insights into fundamental biological processes. By examining the synergistic interplay between nucleic acids as powerful biomaterials and ODNs as indispensable tools for biological studies and biomarkers, this review highlights the transformative impact of these molecules on biomedical research. Their versatile applications not only deepen our understanding of biological systems but also are the driving force for innovation in diagnostics and therapeutics, ultimately advancing the field of biomedicine.

Abstract
Cyclonucleosides are a group of nucleoside derivatives which, in addition to the classical N-glycosidic bond, have an additional covalent bond (linker, bridge) in their structure, which connects the heterocyclic base and sugar ring. The majority of them have been discovered in the laboratory; however, few such compounds have also been found in natural sources, including metabolites of sponges or radical damage occurring in nucleic acids. Due to their structural properties-rigid, fixed conformation-they have found wide applications in medicinal chemistry and biochemistry as biocides as well as enzyme inhibitors and molecular probes. They have also found use as convenient synthetic tools for the preparation of new nucleoside analogues, enabling structural modifications of both the sugar ring and heterocyclic base. This review summarizes the recent progress in the synthesis of various purine and pyrimidine cyclonucleosides using diverse chemical approaches based on radical, "click", metal-mediated, and other types of reactions. It also presents recent reports concerning possible applications in medicinal chemistry, as well as their applications as valuable key intermediates in the synthesis of sugar- and base-modified nucleoside analogues and heterocyclic compounds.

Abstract
As a predominant type II protein arginine methyltransferase, PRMT5 plays critical roles in various normal cellular processes by catalyzing the mono- and symmetrical dimethylation of a wide range of histone and nonhistone substrates. Clinical studies have revealed that high expression of PRMT5 is observed in different solid tumors and hematological malignancies and is closely associated with cancer initiation and progression. Accordingly, PRMT5 is becoming a promising anticancer target and has received great attention in both the pharmaceutical industry and the academic community. In this Perspective, we comprehensively summarize recent advances in the development of first-generation PRMT5 enzymatic inhibitors and highlight novel strategies targeting PRMT5 in the past 5 years. We also discuss the challenges and opportunities of PRMT5 inhibition, with the aim of shedding light on future PRMT5 drug discovery.

Abstract
Light is one way to excite an electron in biology. Another is chemiexcitation, birthing a reaction product in an electronically excited state rather than exciting from the ground state. Chemiexcited molecules, as in bioluminescence, can release more energy than ATP. Excited states also allow bond rearrangements forbidden in ground states. Molecules with low-lying unoccupied orbitals, abundant in biology, are particularly susceptible. In mammals, chemiexcitation was discovered to transfer energy from excited melanin, neurotransmitters, or hormones to DNA, creating the lethal and carcinogenic cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer. That process was initiated by nitric oxide and superoxide, radicals triggered by ultraviolet light or inflammation. Several poorly understood chronic diseases share two properties: inflammation generates those radicals across the tissue, and cells that die are those containing melanin or neuromelanin. Chemiexcitation may therefore be a pathogenic event in noise- and drug-induced deafness, Parkinson's disease, and Alzheimer's; it may prevent macular degeneration early in life but turn pathogenic later. Beneficial evolutionary selection for excitable biomolecules may thus have conferred an Achilles heel. This review of recent findings on chemiexcitation in mammalian cells also describes the underlying physics, biochemistry, and potential pathogenesis, with the goal of making this interdisciplinary phenomenon accessible to researchers within each field.

Abstract
Mitochondrial (mt) DNA and nuclear (n) DNA have known structures and roles in cells; however, they are rarely compared under specific conditions such as oxidative or degenerative environments that can create damage to the DNA base moieties. Six purine lesions were ascertained in the mtDNA of wild type (wt) CSA (CS3BE-wtCSA) and wtCSB (CS1AN-wtCSB) cells and defective counterparts CS3BE and CS1AN in comparison with the corresponding total (t) DNA (t = n + mt). In particular, the four 5',8-cyclopurine (cPu) and the two 8-oxo-purine (8-oxo-Pu) lesions were accurately quantified by LC-MS/MS analysis using isotopomeric internal standards after an enzymatic digestion procedure. The 8-oxo-Pu levels were found to be in the range of 25-50 lesions/107 nucleotides in both the mtDNA and tDNA. The four cPu were undetectable in the mtDNA both in defective cells and in the wt counterparts (CSA and CSB), contrary to their detection in tDNA, indicating a nonappearance of hydroxyl radical (HO•) reactivity within the mtDNA. In order to assess the HO• reactivity towards purine nucleobases in the two genetic materials, we performed γ-radiolysis experiments coupled with the 8-oxo-Pu and cPu quantifications on isolated mtDNA and tDNA from wtCSB cells. In the latter experiments, all six purine lesions were detected in both of the DNA, showing a higher resistance to HO• attack in the case of mtDNA compared with tDNA, likely due to their different DNA helical topology influencing the relative abundance of the lesions.

Abstract
This work shows that S atom substitution in phosphate controls the directionality of hole transfer processes between the base and sugar-phosphate backbone in DNA systems. The investigation combines synthesis, electron spin resonance (ESR) studies in supercooled homogeneous solution, pulse radiolysis in aqueous solution at ambient temperature, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations of in-house synthesized model compound dimethylphosphorothioate (DMTP(O-)═S) and nucleotide (5'-O-methoxyphosphorothioyl-2'-deoxyguanosine (G-P(O-)═S)). ESR investigations show that DMTP(O-)═S reacts with Cl2•- to form the σ2σ*1 adduct radical -P-S[Formula: see text]Cl, which subsequently reacts with DMTP(O-)═S to produce [-P-S[Formula: see text]S-P-]-. -P-S[Formula: see text]Cl in G-P(O-)═S undergoes hole transfer to Gua, forming the cation radical (G•+) via thermally activated hopping. However, pulse radiolysis measurements show that DMTP(O-)═S forms the thiyl radical (-P-S•) by one-electron oxidation, which did not produce [-P-S[Formula: see text]S-P-]-. Gua in G-P(O-)═S is oxidized unimolecularly by the -P-S• intermediate in the sub-picosecond range. DFT thermochemical calculations explain the differences in ESR and pulse radiolysis results obtained at different temperatures.

Abstract
PURPOSE One outcome of DNA damage from hydroxyl radical generated by ionizing radiation (IR) or by the Fenton reaction is oxidation of the nucleobases, especially guanine (G). While 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (OG) is a commonly studied oxidized lesion, several others are formed in high abundance, including 5-carboxamido-5-formamido-2-iminohydantoin (2Ih), a prevalent product in in vitro chemistry that is challenging to study from cellular sources. In this short review, we have a goal of explaining new insights into hydroxyl radical-induced oxidation chemistry of G in DNA and comparing it to endogenous DNA damage, as well as commenting on the biological outcomes of DNA base damage. CONCLUSIONS Pathways of oxidation of G are discussed and a comparison is made between IR (hydroxyl radical chemistry) and endogenous oxidative stress that largely forms carbonate radical anion as a reactive intermediate. These pathways overlap with the formation of OG and 2Ih, but other guanine-derived lesions are more pathway specific. The biological consequences of guanine oxidation include both mutagenesis and epigenetics; a new mechanism of gene regulation via the base excision repair pathway is described for OG, whereas the impact of IR in forming guanine modifications may be to confound this process in addition to introduction of mutagenic sites.

Abstract
Emission of light by matter can occur through a variety of mechanisms. When it results from an electronically excited state of a species produced by a chemical reaction, it is called chemiluminescence (CL). The phenomenon can take place both in natural and artificial chemical systems and it has been utilized in a variety of applications. In this review, we aim to revisit some of the latest CL applications based on direct and indirect production modes. The characteristics of the chemical reactions and the underpinning CL mechanisms are thoroughly discussed in view of studies from the very recent bibliography. Different methodologies aiming at higher CL efficiencies are summarized and presented in detail, including CL type and scaffolds used in each study. The CL role in the development of efficient therapeutic platforms is also discussed in relation to the Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) and singlet oxygen (1O2) produced, as final products. Moreover, recent research results from our team are included regarding the behavior of commonly used photosensitizers upon chemical activation under CL conditions. The CL prospects in imaging, biomimetic organic and radical chemistry, and therapeutics are critically presented in respect to the persisting challenges and limitations of the existing strategies to date.

Abstract
Clustered DNA lesions (CDL) containing 5′,8-cyclo-2′-deoxypurines (cdPus) are an example of extensive abnormalities occurring in the DNA helix and may impede cellular repair processes. The changes in the efficiency of nuclear base excision repair (BER) were investigated using (a) two cell lines, one of the normal skin fibroblasts as a reference (BJ) and the second from Xeroderma pigmentosum patients’ skin (XPC), and (b) synthetic oligonucleotides with single- and double-stranded CDL (containing 5′,8-cyclo-2′-deoxyadenosine (cdA) and the abasic (AP) site at various distances between lesions). The nuclear BER has been observed and the effect of both cdA isomers (5′R and 5′S) presence in the DNA was tested. CdPus affected the repair of the second lesion within the CDL. The BER system more efficiently processed damage in the vicinity of the ScdA isomer and changes located in the 3′-end direction for dsCDL and in the 5′-end direction for ssCDL. The presented study is the very first investigation of the repair processes of the CDL containing cdPu considering cells derived from a Xeroderma pigmentosum patient.

Abstract
Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is the most versatile DNA repair pathway, which can remove diverse bulky DNA lesions destabilizing a DNA duplex. NER defects cause several autosomal recessive genetic disorders. Xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) is one of the NER-associated syndromes characterized by low efficiency of the removal of bulky DNA adducts generated by ultraviolet radiation. XP patients have extremely high ultraviolet-light sensitivity of sun-exposed tissues, often resulting in multiple skin and eye cancers. Some XP patients develop characteristic neurodegeneration that is believed to derive from their inability to repair neuronal DNA damaged by endogenous metabolites. A specific class of oxidatively induced DNA lesions, 8,5′-cyclopurine-2′-deoxynucleosides, is considered endogenous DNA lesions mainly responsible for neurological problems in XP. Growing evidence suggests that XP is accompanied by defective mitophagy, as in primary mitochondrial disorders. Moreover, NER pathway is absent in mitochondria, implying that the mitochondrial dysfunction is secondary to nuclear NER defects. In this review, we discuss the current understanding of the NER molecular mechanism and focuses on the NER linkage with the neurological degeneration in patients with XP. We also present recent research advances regarding NER involvement in oxidative DNA lesion repair. Finally, we highlight how mitochondrial dysfunction may be associated with XP.

Abstract
Hydroxyl radical (HO•) is the most reactive toward DNA among the reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated in aerobic organisms by cellular metabolisms. HO• is generated also by exogenous sources such as ionizing radiations. In this review we focus on the purine DNA damage by HO• radicals. In particular, emphasis is given on mechanistic aspects for the various lesion formation and their interconnections. Although the majority of the purine DNA lesions like 8-oxo-purine (8-oxo-Pu) are generated by various ROS (including HO•), the formation of 5',8-cyclopurine (cPu) lesions in vitro and in vivo relies exclusively on the HO• attack. Methodologies generally utilized for the purine lesions quantification in biological samples are reported and critically discussed. Recent results on cPu and 8-oxo-Pu lesions quantification in various types of biological specimens associated with the cellular repair efficiency as well as with distinct pathologies are presented, providing some insights on their biological significance.

Abstract
Uridine derivatives undergo a diastereospecific intramolecular hetero Michael addition onto uracil C6 to give cyclo-adducts. In contrast to the potent amine and thiol nucleophiles at the 5' position of ribose, which readily give the N- and S-cyclonucleosides in good yields, the cyclization reaction from the "natural" 5'-hydroxyl is tedious and has so far been overlooked most probably because of the thermodynamic instability of the O-cyclo-adduct. Here, we show that the O-cyclonucleoside 1 can be isolated, although in low isolated yields, in acidic conditions following an original mechanism. Whether such cyclization reactions occur from biologically relevant pyrimidine-based nucleosides is an open question of interest. Given the structures of thymidine-based antiviral drugs, our results suggest a new hypothetical mode of action for these drugs.

Abstract
Cockayne Syndrome (CS) is an autosomal recessive neurodegenerative premature aging disorder associated with defects in nucleotide excision repair (NER). Cells from CS patients, with mutations in CSA or CSB genes, present elevated levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and are defective in the repair of a variety of oxidatively generated DNA lesions. In this study, six purine lesions were ascertained in wild type (wt) CSA, defective CSA, wtCSB and defective CSB-transformed fibroblasts under different oxygen tensions (hyperoxic 21%, physioxic 5% and hypoxic 1%). In particular, the four 5′,8-cyclopurine (cPu) and the two 8-oxo-purine (8-oxo-Pu) lesions were accurately quantified by LC-MS/MS analysis using isotopomeric internal standards after an enzymatic digestion procedure. cPu levels were found comparable to 8-oxo-Pu in all cases (3–6 lesions/106 nucleotides), slightly increasing on going from hyperoxia to physioxia to hypoxia. Moreover, higher levels of four cPu were observed under hypoxia in both CSA and CSB-defective cells as compared to normal counterparts, along with a significant enhancement of 8-oxo-Pu. These findings revealed that exposure to different oxygen tensions induced oxidative DNA damage in CS cells, repairable by NER or base excision repair (BER) pathways. In NER-defective CS patients, these results support the hypothesis that the clinical neurological features might be connected to the accumulation of cPu. Moreover, the elimination of dysfunctional mitochondria in CS cells is associated with a reduction in the oxidative DNA damage.

Abstract
Oxidatively generated damage to DNA frequently appears in the human genome as the effect of aerobic metabolism or as the result of exposure to exogenous oxidizing agents, such as ionization radiation. In this paper, the electronic properties of single, tandem, and clustered DNA damage in comparison with native ds-DNA are discussed as a comparative analysis for the first time. A single lesion—8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2′-deoxyguanosine (Goxo), a tandem lesion—(5′S) and (5′R) 5′,8-cyclo-2′-deoxyadenosine (cdA), and the presence of both of them in one helix turn as clustered DNA damage were chosen and taken into consideration. The lowest vertical and adiabatic potential (VIP ~ 5.9 and AIP ~ 5.5 eV, respectively) were found for Goxo, independently of the discussed DNA lesion type and their distribution within the double helix. Moreover, the VIP and AIP were assigned for ds-trimers, ds- dimers and single base pairs isolated from parental ds-hexamers in their neutral and cationic forms. The above results were confirmed by the charge and spin density population, which revealed that Goxo can be considered as a cation radical point of destination independently of the DNA damage type (single, tandem, or clustered). Additionally, the different influences of cdA on the charge transfer rate were found and discussed in the context of tandem and clustered lesions. Because oligonucleotide lesions are effectively produced as a result of ionization factors, the presented data in this article might be valuable in developing a new scheme of anticancer radiotherapy efficiency.

Abstract
Environmental mutagens lead to mutagenesis. However, the mechanisms are very complicated and not fully understood. Environmental mutagens produce various DNA lesions, including base-damaged or sugar-modified DNA lesions, as well as epigenetically modified DNA. DNA polymerases produce mutation spectra in translesion DNA synthesis (TLS) through misincorporation of incorrect nucleotides, frameshift deletions, blockage of DNA replication, imbalance of leading- and lagging-strand DNA synthesis, and genome instability. Motif or subunit in DNA polymerases further affects the mutations in TLS. Moreover, protein interactions and accessory proteins in DNA replisome also alter mutations in TLS, demonstrated by several representative DNA replisomes. Finally, in cells, multiple DNA polymerases or cellular proteins collaborate in TLS and reduce in vivo mutagenesis. Summaries and perspectives were listed. This review shows mechanisms of mutagenesis induced by DNA lesions and the effects of multiple factors on mutations in TLS in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract
Chronic inflammation is estimated to be a causative factor in a variety of diseases. Under inflammatory conditions reactive oxygen species (ROS) and nitrogen species (RNS) are released leading to DNA damage accumulation and genomic instability. Purine 5′,8-cyclo-2′-deoxynucleosides (cPu) are oxidative DNA lesions, exclusively derived from the attack of HO• radicals, which are known to have cytotoxic and mutagenic properties. Herein, we have analyzed the presence of cPu in genomic DNA isolated from fresh colon and visceral adipose tissue biopsies collected from inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD)-affected patients and severely obese subjects, respectively, versus what observed in the control specimens. In colon biopsies, characterized by a higher gene expression level of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), a significant increase of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2′-deoxyadenosine (8-oxo-dA) and 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-oxo-dG) lesions and an accumulation of both diastereomeric cPu have been detected. In contrast, the 8-oxo-dA and 8-oxo-dG levels were extremely lower compared to the colon tissues values and no accumulation of cPu, in the inflamed visceral adipose tissue biopsies isolated from bariatric patients versus the lean counterpart was reported. In addition, in adipose tissue undetectable levels of iNOS have been found. These data suggest a potential involvement of cPu in the colon cancer susceptibility observed in IBD patients.

Abstract
The reaction of HO• radical with DNA is intensively studied both mechanistically and analytically for lesions formation. Several aspects related to the reaction paths of purine moieties with the formation of 5',8-cyclopurines (cPu), 8-oxopurines (8-oxo-Pu), and their relationship are not well understood. In this study, we investigated the reaction of HO• radical with a 21-mer double-stranded oligodeoxynucleotide (ds-ODNs) in γ-irradiated aqueous solutions under various oxygen concentrations and accurately quantified the six purine lesions (i.e., four cPu and two 8-oxo-Pu) by LC-MS/MS analysis using isotopomeric internal standards. In the absence of oxygen, 8-oxo-Pu lesions are only ∼4 times more than cPu lesions. By increasing oxygen concentration, the 8-oxo-Pu and the cPu gradually increase and decrease, respectively, reaching a gap of ∼130 times at 2.01 × 10-4 M of O2. Kinetic treatment of the data allows to estimate the C5' radical competition between cyclization and oxygen trapping in ds-ODNs, and lastly the rate constants of the four cyclization steps. Tailored computational studies by means of dispersion-corrected DFT calculations were performed on the CGC and TAT in their double-strand models for each cPu diastereoisomer along with the complete reaction pathways of the cyclization steps. Our findings reveal unheralded reaction mechanisms that resolve the long-standing issues with C5' radical cyclization in purine moieties of DNA sequences.

Abstract
The reaction of hydroxyl radical (HO•) with thymine in DNA generates 5-(uracilyl)-methyl radicals (T•) and the corresponding methylperoxyl radical (TOO•) in the presence of O2, which in turn propagates damage by reacting with a vicinal nucleobase. This leads to so-called double or tandem lesions. Because methyl oxidation products of thymine are major products, we investigated the reactivity of TOO• using a photolabile precursor: 5-(phenylthiomethyl)uracil (TSPh). The precursor was prepared and incorporated into a DNA trinucleotide: 5'-d(GpTSPhpA)-3' (G-TSPh-A). Upon photolysis, the resulting products were characterized by LC-MS/MS. Thereby, we identified four tandem lesions involving GpT, which include either 2,6-diamino-4-hydroxy-5-formamidopyrimidine (fapyG) or 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (oxoG) in tandem with either 5-formyluracil (fU) or 5-hydroxymethyluracil (hmU). The formation of these tandem lesions is explained by initial addition of TOO• to the C8 of guanine moiety, giving an N7-guanine cross-linked radical. The latter radical undergoes either reduction to an 7,8-saturated endoperoxide or oxidation to an 7,8-unsaturated endoperoxide, which transform into fapyG-fU-A and oxoG-fU-A, respectively. This is supported by the effect of a reducing (dithiothreitol) and oxidizing agent (Fe3+) on product formation. This study expands the repertoire of tandem lesions that can occur at GpT sequences and underlines the importance of redox environment.

Abstract
Xeroderma Pigmentosum (XP) is a DNA repair disease characterized by nucleotide excision repair (NER) malfunction, leading to photosensitivity and increased incidence of skin malignancies. The role of XP-A in NER pathways has been well studied while discrepancies associated with ROS levels and the role of radical species between normal and deficient XPA cell lines have been observed. Using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry we have determined the four 5’,8-cyclopurines (cPu) lesions (i.e., 5′R-cdG, 5′S-cdG, 5′R-cdA and 5′S-cdA), 8-oxo-dA and 8-oxo-dG in wt (EUE-pBD650) and XPA-deficient (EUE-siXPA) human embryonic epithelial cell lines, under different oxygen tension (hyperoxic 21%, physioxic 5% and hypoxic 1%). The levels of Fe and Cu were also measured. The main findings of our study were: (i) the total amount of cPu (1.82–2.52 lesions/106 nucleotides) is the same order of magnitude as 8-oxo-Pu (3.10–4.11 lesions/106 nucleotides) in both cell types, (ii) the four cPu levels are similar in hyperoxic and physioxic conditions for both wt and deficient cell lines, whereas 8-oxo-Pu increases in all cases, (iii) both wt and deficient cell lines accumulated high levels of cPu under hypoxic compared to physioxic conditions, whereas the 8-oxo-Pu levels show an opposite trend, (iv) the diastereoisomeric ratios 5′R/5′S are independent of oxygen concentration being 0.29 for cdG and 2.69 for cdA for EUE-pBD650 (wt) and 0.32 for cdG and 2.94 for cdA for EUE-siXPA (deficient), (v) in deficient cell lines Fe levels were significantly higher. The data show for the first time the connection of oxygen concentration in cells with different DNA repair ability and the levels of different DNA lesions highlighting the significance of cPu. Membrane lipidomic data at 21% O2 indicated differences in the fatty acid contents between wild type and deficient cells, envisaging functional effects on membranes associated with the different repair capabilities, to be further investigated.

Abstract
The reaction of hydroxyl radical (HO•) with DNA produces many primary reactive species and many lesions as final products. In this study, we have examined the optical spectra of intermediate species derived from the reaction of HO• with a variety of single- and double-stranded oligodeoxynucleotides and ct-DNA in the range of 1 μs to 1 ms by pulse radiolysis using an Intensified Charged Coupled Device (ICCD) camera. Moreover, we applied our published analytical protocol based on an LC-MS/MS system with isotopomeric internal standards to enable accurate and precise measurements of purine lesion formation. In particular, the simultaneous measurement of the four purine 5′,8-cyclo-2′-deoxynucleosides (cPu) and two 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2′-deoxypurine (8-oxo-Pu) was obtained upon reaction of genetic material with HO• radicals generated either by γ-radiolysis or Fenton-type reactions. Our results contributed to the debate in the literature regarding absolute level of lesions, method of HO• radical generation, 5′R/5′S diastereomeric ratio in cPu, and relative abundance between cPu and 8-oxo-Pu.

[PMID: 31652769 PMCID: PMC6912673 DOI: 10.3390/cells8111303] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2019] [Revised: 10/21/2019] [Accepted: 10/22/2019] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
DNA lesions are formed continuously in each living cell as a result of environmental factors, ionisation radiation, metabolic processes, etc. Most lesions are removed from the genome by the base excision repair system (BER). The activation of the BER protein cascade starts with DNA damage recognition by glycosylases. Uracil-DNA glycosylase (UDG) is one of the most evolutionary preserved glycosylases which remove the frequently occurring 2′-deoxyuridine from single (ss) and double-stranded (ds) oligonucleotides. Conversely, the unique tandem lesions (5′R)- and (5′S)-5′,8-cyclo-2′-deoxyadenosine (cdA) are not suitable substrates for BER machinery and are released from the genome by the nucleotide excision repair (NER) system. However, the cyclopurines appearing in a clustered DNA damage structure can influence the BER process of other lesions like dU. In this article, UDG inhibition by 5′S- and 5′R-cdA is shown and discussed in an experimental and theoretical manner. This phenomenon was observed when a tandem lesion appears in single or double-stranded oligonucleotides next to dU, on its 3′-end side. The cdA shift to the 5′-end side of dU in ss-DNA stops this effect in both cdA diastereomers. Surprisingly, in the case of ds-DNA, 5′S-cdA completely blocks uracil excision by UDG. Conversely, 5′R-cdA allows glycosylase for uracil removal, but the subsequently formed apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) site is not suitable for human AP-site endonuclease 1 (hAPE1) activity. In conclusion, the appearance of the discussed tandem lesion in the structure of single or double-stranded DNA can stop the entire base repair process at its beginning, which due to UDG and hAPE1 inhibition can lead to mutagenesis. On the other hand, the presented results can cast some light on the UDG or hAPE1 inhibitors being used as a potential treatment.

Abstract
Purine 5′,8-cyclo-2′-deoxynucleosides (cPu) are tandem-type lesions observed among the DNA purine modifications and identified in mammalian cellular DNA in vivo. These lesions can be present in two diasteroisomeric forms, 5′R and 5′S, for each 2′-deoxyadenosine and 2′-deoxyguanosine moiety. They are generated exclusively by hydroxyl radical attack to 2′-deoxyribose units generating C5′ radicals, followed by cyclization with the C8 position of the purine base. This review describes the main recent achievements in the preparation of the cPu molecular library for analytical and DNA synthesis applications for the studies of the enzymatic recognition and repair mechanisms, their impact on transcription and genetic instability, quantitative determination of the levels of lesions in various types of cells and animal model systems, and relationships between the levels of lesions and human health, disease, and aging, as well as the defining of the detection limits and quantification protocols.

High levels of oxidatively generated DNA damage 8,5'-cyclo-2'-deoxyadenosine accumulate in the brain tissues of xeroderma pigmentosum group A gene-knockout mice. DNA Repair (Amst) 2019; 80:52-58.

Abstract
Xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) is a genetic disorder associated with defects in nucleotide excision repair, a pathway that eliminates a wide variety of helix-distorting DNA lesions, including ultraviolet-induced pyrimidine dimers. In addition to skin diseases in sun-exposed areas, approximately 25% of XP patients develop progressive neurological disease, which has been hypothesized to be associated with the accumulation of an oxidatively generated type of DNA damage called purine 8,5'-cyclo-2'-deoxynucleoside (cyclopurine). However, that hypothesis has not been verified. In this study, we tested that hypothesis by using the XP group A gene-knockout (Xpa-/-) mouse model. To quantify cyclopurine lesions in this model, we previously established an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using a monoclonal antibody (CdA-1) that specifically recognizes 8,5'-cyclo-2'-deoxyadenosine (cyclo-dA). By optimizing conditions, we increased the ELISA sensitivity to a detection limit of ˜one cyclo-dA lesion/106 nucleosides. The improved ELISA revealed that cyclo-dA lesions accumulate with age in the brain tissues of Xpa-/- and of wild-type (wt) mice, but there were significantly more cyclo-dA lesions in Xpa-/- mice than in wt mice at 6, 24 and 29 months of age. These findings are consistent with the long-standing hypothesis that the age-dependent accumulation of endogenous cyclopurine lesions in the brain may be critical for XP neurological abnormalities.

Abstract
Increased rates of reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (ROS/RNS) are involved in almost all cancer types, associated with tumor development and progression, causing damage to biomolecules such as proteins, nucleic acids and membrane lipids, in different biological compartments. We used a human tumor xenograft mouse model to evaluate for the first time in parallel the remodeling of fatty acid moieties in erythrocyte membrane phospholipids and the level of ROS-induced DNA lesions in liver and kidney tissues. Using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry the 5'R and 5'S diastereoisomers of 5',8-cyclo-2'-deoxyadenosine and 5',8-cyclo-2'-deoxyguanosine, together with 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyadenosine, were determined in mice at young (4- and 5-weeks) and old (17-weeks) ages and compared with control SCID mice without tumor implantation. Tumor-bearing mice showed a higher level of ROS-damaged nucleosides in genomic DNA as the age and tumor progress, compared to controls (1.07-1.53-fold in liver and 1.1-1.4-fold in kidney, respectively). The parallel fatty acid profile of erythrocyte membranes showed a profound lipid remodeling during tumor and age progression consisting of PUFA consumption and SFA enrichment (ca 28% and 58%, respectively, in late stage tumor-bearing mice), markers of enhanced oxidative and proliferative processes, respectively. Membrane lipid remodeling and ROS-induced DNA lesions may be combined to afford an integrated scenario of cancer progression and ageing, reinforcing a holistic vision among molecular markers rather than the biomarker identification in a single compartment.

Abstract
5’,8-Cyclo-2’-deoxyadenosine (cdA), in the 5’R and 5’Sdiastereomeric forms, are typical non strand-break oxidative DNA lesions, induced by hydroxyl radicals, with emerging importance as a molecular marker. These lesions are exclusively repaired by the nucleotide excision repair (NER) mechanism with a low efficiency, thus readily accumulating in the genome. Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase1 (PARP1) acts as an early responder to DNA damage and plays a key role as a nick sensor in the maintenance of the integrity of the genome by recognizing nicked DNA. So far, it was unknown whether the two diastereomeric cdA lesions could induce specific PARP1 binding. Here, we provide the first evidence of PARP1 to selectively recognize the diastereomeric lesions of 5’S-cdA and 5’R-cdA in vitro as compared to deoxyadenosine in model DNA substrates (23-mers) by using circular dichroism, fluorescence spectroscopy, immunoblotting analysis, and gel mobility shift assay. Several features of the recognition of the damaged and undamaged oligonucleotides by PARP1 were characterized. Remarkably, PARP1 exhibits different affinities in binding to a double strand (ds) oligonucleotide, which incorporates cdA lesions in R and S diastereomeric form. In particular, PARP1 proved to bind oligonucleotides, including a 5’S-cdA, with a higher affinity constant for the 5’S lesion in a model of ds DNA than 5’R-cdA, showing different recognition patterns, also compared with undamaged dA. This new finding highlights the ability of PARP1 to recognize and differentiate the distorted DNA backbone in a biomimetic system caused by different diastereomeric forms of a cdA lesion.

Abstract
In DNA, 2'-deoxyguanosine (dG) is susceptible to oxidative modification by reactive oxygen species (ROS) yielding many products, one of which is 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (dOG). Interestingly, dOG is stable but much more labile toward oxidation than dG, furnishing 5-guanidinohydantoin-2'-deoxyribose (dGh) that is favored in the duplex context or spiroiminodihydantoin-2'-deoxyribose (dSp) that is favored in the oxidation of single-stranded contexts. Previously, exposure of DNA to ionizing radiation found ∼50% of the dOG exists as a tandem lesion with an adjacent formamide site. The present work explored oxidation of dOG in a tandem lesion with a THF abasic site analog (F) that models the formamide on either the 5' or 3' side. When dOG was in a tandem lesion, both dGh and dSp were observed as oxidation products. The 5' versus 3' side in which F resided influenced the stereochemistry of the dSp formed. Further, tandem lesions with dOG were found to be up to two orders of magnitude more reactive to oxidation than dOG in an intact duplex. When dOG is in a tandem lesion it is up to fivefold more prone to formation of spermine cross-links during oxidation compared to dOG in an intact duplex. Lastly, dOG, dGh, and each dSp diastereomer were synthesized as part of a tandem lesion in a duplex DNA to establish that dOG tandem lesions decrease the thermal stability by 12-13 °C, while dGh or either dSp diastereomer in a tandem lesion decrease the stability by >20 °C. The biological consequences of these results are discussed.

Abstract
Brominated nucleobases sensitize double stranded DNA to hydrated electrons, one of the dominant genotoxic species produced in hypoxic cancer cells during radiotherapy. Such radiosensitizers can therefore be administered locally to enhance treatment efficiency within the solid tumor while protecting the neighboring tissue. When a solvated electron attaches to 8-bromoadenosine, a potential sensitizer, the dissociation of bromide leads to a reactive C8 adenosyl radical known to generate a range of DNA lesions. In the current work, we propose a multiscale computational approach to elucidate the mechanism by which this unstable radical causes further damage in genomic DNA. We employed a combination of classical molecular dynamics conformational sampling and QM/MM metadynamics to study the thermodynamics and kinetics of plausible reaction pathways in a realistic model, bridging between different time scales of the key processes and accounting for the spatial constraints in DNA. The obtained data allowed us to build a kinetic model that correctly predicts the products predominantly observed in experimental settings-cyclopurine and β-elimination (single strand break) lesions-with their ratio and yield dependent on the effective lifetime of the radical species. To date, our study provides the most complete description of purine radical reactivity in double stranded DNA, explaining the radiosensitizing action of electrophilic purines in molecular detail as well as providing a conceptual framework for the computational modeling of competing reaction pathways in biomolecules.

Abstract
The most common, oxidatively generated lesion in cellular DNA is 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine, which can be oxidized further to yield highly mutagenic spiroiminodihydantoin (Sp) and 5-guanidinohydantoin (Gh) in DNA. In human cell-free extracts, both lesions can be excised by base excision repair and global genomic nucleotide excision repair. However, it is not known if these lesions can be removed by transcription-coupled DNA repair (TCR), a pathway that clears lesions from DNA that impede RNA synthesis. To determine if Sp or Gh impedes transcription, which could make each a viable substrate for TCR, either an Sp or a Gh lesion was positioned on the transcribed strand of DNA under the control of a promoter that supports transcription by human RNA polymerase II. These constructs were incubated in HeLa nuclear extracts that contained active RNA polymerase II, and the resulting transcripts were resolved by denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The structurally rigid Sp strongly blocks transcription elongation, permitting 1.6 ± 0.5% nominal lesion bypass. In contrast, the conformationally flexible Gh poses less of a block to human RNAPII, allowing 9 ± 2% bypass. Furthermore, fractional lesion bypass for Sp and Gh is minimally affected by glycosylase activity found in the HeLa nuclear extract. These data specifically suggest that both Sp and Gh may well be susceptible to TCR because each poses a significant block to human RNA polymerase II progression. A more general principle is also proposed: Conformational flexibility may be an important structural feature of DNA lesions that enhances their transcriptional bypass.

Abstract
It is generally believed that the mammalian nucleotide excision repair pathway removes DNA helix-distorting bulky DNA lesions, while small non-bulky lesions are repaired by base excision repair (BER). However, recent work demonstrates that the oxidativly generated guanine oxidation products, spiroimininodihydantoin (Sp), 5-guanidinohydantoin (Gh), and certain intrastrand cross-linked lesions, are good substrates of NER and BER pathways that compete with one another in human cell extracts. The oxidation of guanine by peroxynitrite is known to generate 5-guanidino-4-nitroimidazole (NIm) which is structurally similar to Gh, except that the 4-nitro group in NIm is replaced by a keto group in Gh. However, unlike Gh, NIm is an excellent substrate of BER, but not of NER. These and other related results are reviewed and discussed in this article.

Abstract
In this review article, emphasis is placed on the critical survey of available data concerning modified nucleobase and 2-deoxyribose products that have been identified in cellular DNA following exposure to a wide variety of oxidizing species and agents including, hydroxyl radical, one-electron oxidants, singlet oxygen, hypochlorous acid and ten-eleven translocation enzymes. In addition, information is provided about the generation of secondary oxidation products of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine and nucleobase addition products with reactive aldehydes arising from the decomposition of lipid peroxides. It is worth noting that the different classes of oxidatively generated DNA damage that consist of single lesions, intra- and interstrand cross-links were unambiguously assigned and quantitatively detected on the basis of accurate measurements involving in most cases high performance liquid chromatography coupled to electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry. The reported data clearly show that the frequency of DNA lesions generated upon severe oxidizing conditions, including exposure to ionizing radiation is low, at best a few modifications per 106 normal bases. Application of accurate analytical measurement methods has also allowed the determination of repair kinetics of several well-defined lesions in cellular DNA that however concerns so far only a restricted number of cases.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are harnessed by the cell for signaling at the same time as being detrimental to cellular components such as DNA. The genome and transcriptome contain instructions that can alter cellular processes when oxidized. The guanine (G) heterocycle in the nucleotide pool, DNA, or RNA is the base most prone to oxidation. The oxidatively-derived products of G consistently observed in high yields from hydroxyl radical, carbonate radical, or singlet oxygen oxidations under conditions modeling the cellular reducing environment are discussed. The major G base oxidation products are 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (OG), 5-carboxamido-5-formamido-2-iminohydantoin (2Ih), spiroiminodihydantoin (Sp), and 5-guanidinohydantoin (Gh). The yields of these products show dependency on the oxidant and the reaction context that includes nucleoside, single-stranded DNA (ssDNA), double-stranded DNA (dsDNA), and G-quadruplex DNA (G4-DNA) structures. Upon formation of these products in cells, they are recognized by the DNA glycosylases in the base excision repair (BER) pathway. This review focuses on initiation of BER by the mammalian Nei-like1-3 (NEIL1-3) glycosylases for removal of 2Ih, Sp, and Gh. The unique ability of the human NEILs to initiate removal of the hydantoins in ssDNA, bulge-DNA, bubble-DNA, dsDNA, and G4-DNA is outlined. Additionally, when Gh exists in a G4 DNA found in a gene promoter, NEIL-mediated repair is modulated by the plasticity of the G4-DNA structure provided by additional G-runs flanking the sequence. On the basis of these observations and cellular studies from the literature, the interplay between DNA oxidation and BER to alter gene expression is discussed.

Abstract
Herein we report the quantification of purine lesions arising from gamma-radiation sourced hydroxyl radicals (HO•) on tertiary dsDNA helical forms of supercoiled (SC), open circular (OC), and linear (L) conformation, along with single-stranded folded and non-folded sequences of guanine-rich DNA in selected G-quadruplex structures. We identify that DNA helical topology and folding plays major, and unexpected, roles in the formation of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxo-dG) and 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyadenosine (8-oxo-dA), along with tandem-type purine lesions 5',8-cyclo-2'-deoxyguanosine (5',8-cdG) and 5',8-cyclo-2'-deoxyadenosine (5',8-cdA). SC, OC, and L dsDNA conformers together with folded and non-folded G-quadruplexes d[TGGGGT]4 (TG4T), d[AGGG(TTAGGG)3] (Tel22), and the mutated tel24 d[TTGGG(TTAGGG)3A] (mutTel24) were exposed to HO• radicals and purine lesions were then quantified via stable isotope dilution LC-MS/MS analysis. Purine oxidation in dsDNA follows L > OC ≫ SC indicating greater damage towards the extended B-DNA topology. Conversely, G-quadruplex sequences were significantly more resistant toward purine oxidation in their unfolded states as compared with G-tetrad folded topologies; this effect is confirmed upon comparative analysis of Tel22 (∼50% solution folded) and mutTel24 (∼90% solution folded). In an effort to identify the accessibly of hydroxyl radicals to quadruplex purine nucleobases, G-quadruplex solvent cavities were then modeled at 1.33 Å with evidence suggesting that folded G-tetrads may act as potential oxidant traps to protect against chromosomal DNA damage.

Abstract
A variety of endogenous and exogenous agents can induce DNA damage and lead to genomic instability. Reactive oxygen species (ROS), an important class of DNA damaging agents, are constantly generated in cells as a consequence of endogenous metabolism, infection/inflammation, and/or exposure to environmental toxicants. A wide array of DNA lesions can be induced by ROS directly, including single-nucleobase lesions, tandem lesions, and hypochlorous acid (HOCl)/hypobromous acid (HOBr)-derived DNA adducts. ROS can also lead to lipid peroxidation, whose byproducts can also react with DNA to produce exocyclic DNA lesions. A combination of bioanalytical chemistry, synthetic organic chemistry, and molecular biology approaches have provided significant insights into the occurrence, repair, and biological consequences of oxidatively induced DNA lesions. The involvement of these lesions in the etiology of human diseases and aging was also investigated in the past several decades, suggesting that the oxidatively induced DNA adducts, especially bulky DNA lesions, may serve as biomarkers for exploring the role of oxidative stress in human diseases. The continuing development and improvement of LC-MS/MS coupled with the stable isotope-dilution method for DNA adduct quantification will further promote research about the clinical implications and diagnostic applications of oxidatively induced DNA adducts.

Abstract
The hyperthermophilic archaeon Thermococcus gammatolerans can resist huge doses of γ-irradiation, up to 5.0 kGy, without loss of viability. The potential to withstand such harsh conditions is probably due to complementary passive and active mechanisms, including repair of damaged chromosomes. In this work, we documented the formation and repair of oxidative DNA lesions in T. gammatolerans. The basal level of the oxidized nucleoside, 8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxo-dGuo), was established at 9.2 (± 0.9) 8-oxo-dGuo per 106 nucleosides, a higher level than those usually measured in eukaryotic cells or bacteria. A significant increase in oxidative damage, i.e., up to 24.2 (± 8.0) 8-oxo-dGuo/106 nucleosides, was measured for T. gammatolerans exposed to a 5.0 kGy dose of γ-rays. Surprisingly, the yield of radiation-induced modifications was lower than those previously observed for human cells exposed to doses corresponding to a few grays. One hour after irradiation, 8-oxo-dGuo levels were significantly reduced, indicating an efficient repair. Two putative base excision repair (BER) enzymes, TGAM_1277 and TGAM_1653, were demonstrated both by proteomics and transcriptomics to be present in the cells without exposure to ionizing radiation. Their transcripts were moderately upregulated after gamma irradiation. After heterologous production and purification of these enzymes, biochemical assays based on electrophoresis and MALDI-TOF (matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight) mass spectrometry indicated that both have a β-elimination cleavage activity. TGAM_1653 repairs 8-oxo-dGuo, whereas TGAM_1277 is also able to remove lesions affecting pyrimidines (1-[2-deoxy-β-d-erythro-pentofuranosyl]-5-hydroxyhydantoin (5-OH-dHyd) and 1-[2-deoxy-β-d-erythro-pentofuranosyl]-5-hydroxy-5-methylhydantoin (5-OH-5-Me-dHyd)). This work showed that in normal growth conditions or in the presence of a strong oxidative stress, T. gammatolerans has the potential to rapidly reduce the extent of DNA oxidation, with at least these two BER enzymes as bodyguards with distinct substrate ranges.

Abstract
Although the terms "excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS)" and "oxidative stress" are widely used, the implications of oxidative stress are often misunderstood. ROS are not a single species but a variety of compounds, each with unique biochemical properties and abilities to react with biomolecules. ROS cause activation of growth signals through thiol oxidation and may lead to DNA damage at elevated levels. In this review, we first discuss a conceptual framework for the interplay of ROS and antioxidants. This review then describes ROS signaling using FLT3-mediated growth signaling as an example. We then focus on ROS-mediated DNA damage. High concentrations of ROS result in various DNA lesions, including 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-guanine, oxazolone, DNA-protein cross-links, and hydantoins, that have unique biological impacts. Here we delve into the biochemistry of nine well-characterized DNA lesions. Within each lesion, the types of repair mechanisms, the mutations induced, and their effects on transcription and replication are discussed. Finally, this review will discuss biochemically inspired implications for cancer therapy. Several teams have put forward designs to harness the excessive ROS and the burdened DNA repair systems of tumor cells for treating cancer. We discuss inhibition of the antioxidant system, the targeting of DNA repair, and ROS-activated prodrugs.
