UVA-induced DNA damage and mutations in melanocytes and melanoma mutations

ABSTRACT: Melanomas carry characteristic mutational signatures associated with solar UVB radiation-induced cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) that contain deaminated cytosines. However, there are several other mutation signatures, including those found in melanomas from non-sun-exposed body sites, that have unknown origins. To test if these signatures are linked to UVA radiation from the sun, we exposed human melanocytes to UVA and to UVB for comparison. We mapped DNA damage in the form of CPDs or 8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG) genome-wide at base resolution. We then determined mutational patterns in single melanocyte cell clones by whole genome sequencing. UVA-induced CPDs occurred overwhelmingly at TT sequences resembling melanoma signature SBS7d. We did not observe rising CPD levels after cessation of radiation (dark CPDs). However, the UVA-induced TT-CPDs did not score as mutagenic in the mutation analysis. 8-oxoG was present in melanocytes but was not substantially increased after UVA. G/C to T/A mutations were prominent in melanocyte single cell clones with no major shift after UVA radiation. These mutations matched SBS18, a signature present in melanomas. Our data suggest that melanocytes carry an endogenous but UVA-independent load of oxidative base lesions and their associated mutations that may be associated with a subset of melanoma mutations.

Melanoma mutations are caused by deamination of cytosine in pyrimidine dimers

Project description:The majority of sunlight-associated melanomas carry a unique UV-related C to T mutation signature at dipyrimidine sites. UVB radiation is known to induce cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) as the major form of DNA damage, but the mechanism of how these DNA lesions lead to mutations is unknown. To map the genome-wide distribution of CPDs at single base resolution, we developed a new method, circle damage sequencing (circle-damage-seq). We found that in human cells CPDs form in a specific tetranucleotide sequence context (5’PyPy<>PyT/A), but this alone does not explain the mutation patterns. To test whether mutations arise at CPDs by cytosine deamination, we next applied a modification of circle-damage-seq and mapped UVB-induced cytosine-deaminated CPDs. We observed that the transcription start sites (TSS) are the sequences most protected from CPDs and deaminated CPDs. The strongest spike of CPDs and deaminated CPD lesions was found immediately upstream of the TSS, suggesting a mutation-promoting role of bound transcription factors. Most significantly, the genome-wide dinucleotide and trinucleotide sequence specificity of deaminated CPDs matched the prominent mutation signature found in melanomas. Our data identifies the cytosine-deaminated CPD as the leading premutagenic lesion responsible for the vast majority of mutations in sun-exposure-linked melanomas.

UV effects in mouse melanocytes

Project description:Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is a major melanoma risk factor, yet underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here we introduce a mouse model permitting fluorescence-aided melanocyte imaging and isolation following in vivo UV irradiation. We use expression profiling to show that activated neonatal skin melanocytes isolated following a melanomagenic UVB dose bear a distinct, persistent interferon-response signature, including genes associated with immunoevasion. UVB-induced melanocyte activation, characterized by aberrant growth and migration, was abolished by antibody-mediated systemic blockade of interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma), but not type-I interferons. IFN-gamma was produced by macrophages recruited to neonatal skin by UVB-induced chemokine receptor Ccr2 ligands. Admixed recruited skin macrophages enhanced transplanted melanoma growth by inhibiting apoptosis; notably, IFN-gamma blockade abolished macrophage-associated melanoma growth and survival. IFN-gamma-producing macrophages were identified in 70% of human melanomas examined. Our data reveal an unanticipated role for IFN-gamma in promoting melanocytic cell survival/immunoevasion, and suggest IFN-gamma-R signaling represents a novel therapeutic melanoma target. Biologic replicates of UVA- and UVB-treated mouse melanocytes, as well as untreated mouse melanocytes and mouse keratinocytes, were used to define melanocyte expression signatures associated with UV treatment.

Genomic Sites Ultrasensitive to Ultraviolet Radiation

Project description:If the genome contains outlier sequences extraordinarily sensitive to environmental agents, these would be sentinels for monitoring personal carcinogen exposure and might drive direct changes in cell physiology rather than acting through rare mutations. New methods, adductSeq and freqSeq, provided statistical resolution to quantify rare lesions at single-base resolution across the genome. Primary human melanocytes, but not fibroblasts, carried spontaneous apurinic sites and TG sequence lesions more frequently than UV-induced cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs). UV exposure revealed hyperhotspots acquiring CPDs up to 170 fold more frequently than the genomic average; these sites were more prevalent in melanocytes. Hyperhotspots were disproportionately located near genes, particularly for RNA-binding proteins, with the most-recurrent hyperhotspots at a fixed position within two motifs: one occurring at ETS1 transcription factor binding sites, known to be UV targets, and at sites of mTOR/TOP-tract translation regulation; the second occurring at A2-15TTCTY, which developed "dark CPDs" after UV exposure, repaired CPDs slowly, and had accumulated CPDs prior to the experiment. Motif locations active as hyperhotspots differed between cell types. Melanocyte CPD hyperhotspots aligned precisely with recurrent UV signature mutations in individual gene promoters of melanomas and with known cancer drivers. At sunburn levels of UV exposure, every cell would have a hyperhotspot CPD in each of the ~20 targeted cell pathways, making hyperhotspots act as epigenetic marks. Purpose: These experiments searched for genomic sites in human primary fibroblasts and melanocytes that are extraordinarily sensitive to DNA damage, primarily cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) induced by UVC or UVB radiation. They separately detected abasic sites and other spontaneous DNA damage when present.

Differentially expressed genes induced with or without UVB stimulation in mice

Project description:Skin cancer is the most prevalent cancer in humans, especially in the United States, Australia, and New Zealand. Australia and New Zealand are the two countries with the highest rates of skin cancer in the world, about four times higher than the United States, the United Kingdom and Canada. According to statistics, one American dies of skin cancer every hour. Studies have shown that ultraviolet radiation is the main cause of skin cancer, and ultraviolet rays are mainly divided into UVA, UVB and UVC according to wavelength, UVA and UVB can cause DNA damage, and UVB is the main factor that induces skin cancer. UVB is primarily a direct damage to cellular DNA and generally includes the formation of pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) and 6-4 photoproducts (6-4PPs). UVB can also cause mutations in tumor suppressor genes such as p53, ptch, and ras. These bases the mutation will promote the activation of related signaling pathways, thereby inducing the production of tumors.In this study, we will use gene chip technology to screen out UVB-sensitive genes, and then select the genes of the UVB-sensitive GPCR family from these genes, and further use PCR for verification, so as to identify UVB-sensitive GPCRs, which will provide a basis for further experimental research.

Expression data from human skin exposed to solar-simulated radiation with or without sunscreen

Project description:Despite widespread use of sunscreens that minimize erythema by blocking ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation, incidence rates of melanoma continue to rise. In considering this disparity between intervention and disease prevalence, we investigated the in vivo transcriptome of human skin treated with sunscreen and solar-simulated radiation (ssR). A focal skin area of healthy participants was exposed to ssR at 1 minimal erythema dose (MED), 0.1 MED or 100 J/m2 with or without prior application of sunscreen, or to non-UVB-spectrum of ssR (solar-simulated UVA/visible/infrared radiation: ssA). Skin biopsies were analyzed using expression microarrays. Ninety-eight microarrays from 14 healthy human volunteers were analyzed. Focal skin areas of all 14 volunteers were exposed to 0 J/m2, 100 J/m2, 1 minimal erythema dose (MED), and 0.1 MED of solar-simulated radiation (ssR). Eight of the 14 volunteers (Group 1) were also exposed to ssA (ssR minus UVB) that were generated by removing UVB from 0 J/m2, 100 J/m2, 1 minimal erythema dose (MED), and 0.1 MED of ssR. Additionally, 6 of the 14 volunteers (Group 2) were treated with sunscreen of sun protection factor (SPF) 15, and exposed to 0 J/m2, 100 J/m2, 1 minimal erythema dose (MED), and 0.1 MED of ssR. Biopsy was taken 24 hours after exposure from each focal skin area for RNA extraction.

UV Photoprotection and Long-lasting Pigmentation from UVA and/or UVB

Project description:To test whether there is a photoprotective benefit after different types of suberythemal repetitive UV, a 1.5 MED challenge dose was applied 1 week after the initial 2 weeks of repetitive irradiation. To determine what different mechanisms and/or factors might be involved in physiological pigmentary responses of the skin to different types of UV, we used whole human genome microarrays and immunohistochemical analyses to characterize human skin in situ to examine how melanocyte-specific proteins and paracrine melanogenic factors are regulated by repetitive exposure to suberythemal doses of different types of UV (UVA and/or UVB). Seven volunteers with skin type II-III were irradiated with UVA, UVB or UVA+UVB radiation for 2 weeks (5 times per week, 10 times total) after preliminary determination of their MEDs. A UVA+UVB challenge dose of 1.5X the MED was applied 1 week later. Biopsies were taken before the challenge dose, immediately after the challenge dose, 4 days after the challenge, and 15 weeks after the challenge.

Comparison of the Transcriptional Profiles of Melanocytes from Dark and Light Skinned Individuals under Basal Conditions and Following Ultraviolet-B Irradiation

Project description:We analysed the whole-genome transcriptional profile of 6 cell lines of dark melanocytes (DM) and 6 of light melanocytes (LM) at basal conditions and after UVB at different time points (6, 12 and 24h) to investigate the mechanisms by which melanocytes protect human skin from the damaging effects of ultraviolet-B radiation (UVB). Further, we assessed the effect of different keratinocyte-conditioned media (KCM+ and KCM-) on melanocytes.
