Project description:Efficient repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) requires a coordinated DNA Damage Response (DDR), which includes phosphorylation of histone H2Ax, forming γH2Ax. This histone modification spreads beyond the DSB into neighboring chromatin, generating a DDR platform that protects against end disassociation and degradation, minimizing chromosomal rearrangements. However, mechanisms that determine the breadth and intensity of γH2Ax domains remain unclear. Here, we show that chromosomal contacts of a DSB site are the primary determinants for γH2Ax landscapes. DSBs that disrupt a topological border permit extension of γH2Ax domains into both adjacent compartments. In contrast, DSBs near a border produce highly asymmetric DDR platforms, with γH2Ax nearly absent from one broken end. Collectively, our findings lend insights into a basic DNA repair mechanism and how the precise location of a DSB may influence genome integrity.

Project description:During the processes of MAFLD and MASH, DDX49 undergoes liquid-liquid phase separation. Subsequently, we used OA/PA (2:1) to simulate the MASH model in vitro. After treating HHL5 cells with OA/PA for 24 hours, we separated the lipid-organized particles of DDX49 by differential centrifugation. To investigate the composition of these particles and study their functions, we conducted a 10-fold proteomic analysis.

Project description:Neuronal activity causes the rapid expression of immediate early genes that are crucial for experience driven changes to synapses, learning, and memory. Here, using both molecular and genome-wide next generation sequencing methods, we report that neuronal activity stimulation triggers the formation of DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) in the promoters of a subset of early-response genes, including Fos, Npas4, and Egr1. Generation of targeted DNA DSBs within Fos and Npas4 promoters is sufficient to induce their expression even in the absence of an external stimulus. Activity-dependent DSB formation is likely mediated by the type II topoisomerase, Topoisomerase IIb (Topo IIb), and knockdown of Topo IIb attenuates both DSB formation and early response gene expression following neuronal stimulation. Our results suggest that DSB formation is a physiological event that rapidly resolves topological constraints to early-response gene expression in neurons.

Project description:High concentration of NaCl increases DNA breaks both in cell culture and in vivo. The breaks remain elevated as long as NaCl concentration remains high and are rapidly repaired when the concentration is lowered. Repair of the breaks after NaCl is reduced is accompanied by formation of foci containing phosphorylated H2AX (γH2AX), which occurs around DNA double-strand breaks and contributes to their repair. By chromatin immunoprecipitation using anti-γH2AX antibody, followed by massive parallel sequencing (ChIP-Seq), we find that during repair of double–strand breaks induced by high NaCl, γH2AX is predominantly localized to regions of the genome devoid of genes (“gene deserts”), indicating that the high NaCl-induced double-strand breaks are located there. Localization to gene deserts helps explain why the DNA breaks are less harmful than are the random breaks induced by genotoxic agents such as UV radiation, ionizing radiation and oxidants. We propose that the universal presence of NaCl around animal cells has directly influenced the evolution of the structure of their genomes.

Project description:In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a single double-strand break (DSB) triggers extensive phosphorylation of histone H2A (known as gammaH2AX) over 50 kb on either side of the DSB. This modification is carried out by either of yeastM-^Rs checkpoint kinases, the ATM homolog, Tel1, or the ATR homolog, Mec1. In G1-arrested cells, where there is very little 5M-^R to 3M-^R processing of DSB ends, only Tel1 promotes this modification. We have recently described a second modification gammaH2B - the phosphorylation of the C terminal T129 locus of histone H2B which is also carried out by both Mec1 and Tel1 kinases. To understand in detail how gamma-H2AX and gamma-H2B spread along the chromosome from a DSB we have undertaken a high-density analysis of their occupancy where there is a DSB on three different chromosomes. gamma-H2AX and gamma-H2B modifications are similar, but there is a marked absence of gamma-H2B near telomeres. We find that there is reduced gamma-H2AX and gamma-H2B modification over strongly transcribed regions, even taking into account the reduced histone occupancy of these genes. When transcription of the galactose-regulated genes GAL1, GAL10, GAL7 are turned off by the addition of glucose, gamma-H2AX is restored within 5 min; when these genes are again induced, gamma-H2AX is rapidly lost. Regions more distal to the GAL genes have markedly reduced gamma-H2AX levels that rise rapidly when transcription is repressed, suggesting that transcription acts as a barrier to the propagation of gamma-H2AX away from the DSB. The restoration of gamma-H2AX in transcribed regions can be carried out by either Mec1 or Tel1, even 7 h after break induction, suggesting that Tel1 remains associated with damaged chromosomes for an extended time. In addition, we show that gamma-H2AX can be transferred in trans, to regions unlinked to the DSB that lie in close proximity the DSB. Specifically, if a DSB is generated 14 kb from CEN2, gamma-H2AX is transferred to regions around all the other centromeres, in keeping with observed close proximity of all centromere-adjacent chromosome arms. This transfer can be observed even in the absence of formaldehyde crosslinking of the samples.

Project description:DNA Double-Strand Breaks (DSBs) are highly detrimental since they can lead to mutations and chromosomes rearrangements (amplification, deletion, translocation and chromosome loss). Here, we set to assess the tridimensional genome organization around DSBs and its role in DSB repair foci formation. We performed Hi-C experiments before and after DSB induction and upon ctrl or SCC1 depletion, 4C-seq experiments before and after DSB induction and upon cohesin (SCC1) depletion or ATM inhibition. We also performed ChIP-seq of pATM(S1981), CTCF, P-SMC3(S1083), MDC1 and a calibrated ChIP-seq of SCC1 with or without damage. ChIP-chip of SMC3 (S1083) and SMC1 (S966) were used to show the recruitment of these marks on DNA repair foci. ChIP-chip of gammaH2AX was realized upon SCC1 depletion and ChIP-seq of gammaH2AX was realized upon SCC1 or WAPL to show the role of the cohesin complex in gammaH2AX foci formation. ChIP-seq of gammaH2AX was realized upon ATM or ATR inhibition to show that ATM is the major kinase that phosphorylates H2AX at clean breaks in human cells.

Project description:Chromatin acts as a key regulator of DNA related processes such as DNA damage repair. While ChIP-chip is a powerful technique to provide high-resolution maps of protein-genome interactions, its use to study DNA Double Strand Break (DSB) repair has been hindered by the limitations of the available damage induction methods. We have developed a human cell line that permits induction of multiple DSBs randomly distributed and unambiguously positioned within the genome. Using this system, we have generated the first genome-wide mapping of gammaH2AX around DSBs. We found that all DSBs trigger large gammaH2AX domains, which extend from the DSB in a bidirectional, discontinuous and not necessarily symmetrical manner. Strikingly we uncovered that, within domains, gammaH2AX distribution is highly influenced by gene transcription since parallel mapping of RNA Polymerase II and strand specific expression revealed that ?H2AX does not propagate on active genes. In addition, we demonstrate that transcription is accurately maintained within gammaH2AX domains, indicating that mechanisms may exist to protect genes transcription from gammaH2AX spreading and from the chromatin rearrangements induced by DSBs.

Project description:Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is estimated to affect approximately 30% of adults worldwide. The progressive form of MASLD, namely metabolic-dysfunction steatohepatitis (MASH), is a leading cause of chronic liver disease. MASH is marked by hepatocellular fat accumulation (steatosis), ballooning, and inflammation. Although many in vitro and in vivo models replicate MASH pathophysiology, no in vitro hepatocyte MASH model has been evaluated for its ability to reflect clinically observed changes in drug metabolizing enzyme (DME) and transporter characteristics such as abundance and activity. This study addressed this knowledge gap by developing a model using sandwich-cultured human hepatocytes (SCHH) that mimics both MASH pathophysiology and alterations in DME and transporter concentrations and function. Lipid-cytokine treatments were first optimized using differentiated HuH-7 cells based on cellular toxicity profiles and their ability to induce a MASH-like phenotype. Three final treatments, all including TNF-α (1 ng/mL) and IL-6 (1.2 ng/mL), were selected for evaluation in SCHH: (1) oleic acid (OA):palmitic acid (PA) (1:2, 0.5 mM), (2) a lipid mix (lysophospholipids mixture + OA:PA), and (3) lipid mix+0.01 mM cholesterol. Treatments were incubated for 72 h with SCHH from three donors. Quantitative targeted absolute proteomics (QTAP), employing stable isotope labeled (SIL) peptide standards and microLC-MS/MS measurement, was used to quantify transporter and DME concentrations in the SCHH total membrane fraction. Concentrations of ten transporters, ten CYP450s, seven UGTs and five other DMEs could be measured above the lower limit of quantification of 0.1 pmol/mg membrane protein. B-CLEAR® technology was used, also, to evaluate transporter function with [3H]-taurocholate (TCA) and [3H]-estradiol-17β-glucuronide (E217G) employed as probe substrates of function. All three treatments significantly increased lipid droplet formation and peroxidation, characteristics of MASH, in SCHH with minimal toxicity. The treatments also altered DME and transporter concentrations in a similar manner to changes observed in liver tissue from patients with MASH. Across treatments, concentrations of bile salt export pump (BSEP), sodium taurocholate co-transporting polypeptide (NTCP), organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP) 1B1, OATP1B3, and multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP) 2 were reduced by 0.66–0.57-fold, 0.71–0.52-fold, 0.74–0.63-fold, 0.82–0.80-fold, and 0.71–0.48-fold, respectively. Correspondingly, TCA apparent uptake clearance and biliary clearance were reduced by 0.70–0.26-fold and 0.61–0.27-fold, respectively. E217G apparent uptake clearance was reduced by 0.67–0.35-fold while biliary excretion index values for E217G were reduced to negligible levels. Overall, the findings demonstrate that lipid–cytokine treatments induce MASH-like changes in SCHH, including clinically relevant reductions in DME and transporter concentrations and transporter function. This model may serve as a valuable tool for predicting altered hepatobiliary drug disposition in MASH.
