A noncanonical response to replication stress protects genome stability through ROS production, in an adaptive manner.

ABSTRACT: Cells are inevitably challenged by low-level/endogenous stresses that do not arrest DNA replication. Here, in human primary cells, we discovered and characterized a noncanonical cellular response that is specific to nonblocking replication stress. Although this response generates reactive oxygen species (ROS), it induces a program that prevents the accumulation of premutagenic 8-oxoguanine in an adaptive way. Indeed, replication stress-induced ROS (RIR) activate FOXO1-controlled detoxification genes such as SEPP1, catalase, GPX1, and SOD2. Primary cells tightly control the production of RIR: They are excluded from the nucleus and are produced by the cellular NADPH oxidases DUOX1/DUOX2, whose expression is controlled by NF-κB, which is activated by PARP1 upon replication stress. In parallel, inflammatory cytokine gene expression is induced through the NF-κB-PARP1 axis upon nonblocking replication stress. Increasing replication stress intensity accumulates DNA double-strand breaks and triggers the suppression of RIR by p53 and ATM. These data underline the fine-tuning of the cellular response to stress that protects genome stability maintenance, showing that primary cells adapt their responses to replication stress severity.

Project description:Lactoferrin (LF) is an iron-binding glycoprotein of the transferrin family and has been suggested to have a variety of biological functions, including anticancer activity. However, the effects of LF and its mechanisms in anticancer therapies, especially in radiotherapy against cancer cells under hypoxic conditions, are not well-determined. In this study, we focused on the molecular mechanisms of LF functions in cells under hypoxic conditions. High-dose LF treatment showed cytotoxic activity in a variety of cells, including both non-cancer and cancer cells. Interestingly, hypoxic treatment increased the sensitivity to LF in some cancer cells but decreased it in non-cancer cells. LF treatment also altered sensitivity to radiation treatment: LF significantly increased the viability of irradiated KD non-cancer cells under hypoxic conditions but decreased that of HSC2 cancer cells. These effects were only observed when LF was treated within 3 h of irradiation, but not before irradiation. Importantly, knockdown of HIF1A counteracted these effects in both cell lines. Measurements of ROS activity showed that LF decreased ROS production in KD cells but increased it in HSC2 cells, resulting in a decrease in γH2AX foci in KD cells but an increase in HSC2 cells. RNA-seq and gene set enrichment analysis showed that LF treatment regulated gene expression related to the cell cycle, apoptosis, inflammation, and the NRF2 antioxidant signaling pathway. Quantitative RT-PCR confirmed the downregulation of the pro-apoptotic gene ASC in KD cells and the NRF2-regulated genes in HSC2 cells by LF treatment. Knockdown experiments confirmed the role of ASC in irradiated KD cells and NRF2 in irradiated HSC2 cells with LF treatment. In conclusion, lactoferrin was shown to affect radiation treatment by regulating apoptosis and NRF2 signaling in a cell type-specific manner under hypoxic conditions, suggesting its potential application as a protector or sensitizer for radiation therapy.
