    Abstract T-loops are thought to hide telomeres from DNA damage signaling and DSB repair pathways. T-loop formation requires the shelterin component TRF2, which represses ATM signaling and NHEJ. Here we establish that TRF2 alone, in the absence of other shelterin proteins can form t-loops. Mouse and human cells contain two isoforms of TRF2, one of which is uncharacterized. We show that both isoforms protect telomeres and form t-loops. The isoforms are not cell cycle regulated and t-loops are present in G1, S, and G2.  Using the DNA wrapping deficient TRF2 Topless mutant, we confirm its inability to form t-loops and repress ATM. However, since the mutant is also defective in repression of NHEJ and telomeric localization, the role of topological changes in telomere protection remains unclear.  Finally, we show that Rad51 does not affect t-loop frequencies or telomere protection. Therefore, alternative models for how TRF2 forms t-loops should be explored.

    Abstract Telomeres are protected by shelterin, a six-subunit protein complex that represses the DNA damage response (DDR) at chromosome ends. Extensive data suggest that TRF2 in shelterin remodels telomeres into the t-loop structure, thereby hiding telomere ends from double-stranded break repair and ATM signaling, whereas POT1 represses ATR signaling by excluding RPA. An alternative protection mechanism was suggested recently by which shelterin subunits TRF1, TRF2, and TIN2 mediate telomeric chromatin compaction, which was proposed to minimize access of DDR factors. We performed superresolution imaging of telomeres in mouse cells after conditional deletion of TRF1, TRF2, or both, the latter of which results in the complete loss of shelterin. Upon removal of TRF1 or TRF2, we observed only minor changes in the telomere volume in most of our experiments. Upon codeletion of TRF1 and TRF2, the telomere volume increased by varying amounts, but even those samples exhibiting small changes in telomere volume showed DDR at nearly all telomeres. Upon shelterin removal, telomeres underwent 53BP1-dependent clustering, potentially explaining at least in part the apparent increase in telomere volume. Furthermore, chromatin accessibility, as determined by ATAC-seq (assay for transposase-accessible chromatin [ATAC] with high-throughput sequencing), was not substantially altered by shelterin removal. These results suggest that the DDR induced by shelterin removal does not require substantial telomere decompaction.

    Abstract Bioprosthetic materials based on mammalian pericardium tissue are the gold standard in reconstructive surgery. Their application range covers repair of rectovaginal septum defects, abdominoplastics, urethroplasty, duraplastics, maxillofacial, ophthalmic, thoracic and cardiovascular reconstruction, etc. However, a number of factors contribute to the success of their integration into the host tissue including structural organization, mechanical strength, biocompatibility, immunogenicity, surface chemistry, and biodegradability. In order to improve the material's properties, various strategies are developed, such as decellularization, crosslinking, and detoxification. In this review, the existing issues and long-term achievements in the development of bioprosthetic materials based on the mammalian pericardium tissue, aimed at a wide-spectrum application in reconstructive surgery are analyzed. The basic technical approaches to preparation of biocompatible forms providing continuous functioning, optimization of biomechanical and functional properties, and clinical applicability are described.

    Abstract Decellularized bovine pericardium (DBP)-based biomeshes are the gold standard in reconstructive surgery. In order to prolong their stability after the transplantation, various chemical cross-linking strategies are employed. However, structural and functional properties of the biomeshes differ in dependence on the cross-linker used. Here, we performed a bottom-up study of structural and functional alterations of DBP-based biomeshes following cross-linking with hexamethylene diisocyanate (HMDC), ethylene glycol diglycidyl ether (EGDE), 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide (EDC) and genipin. The in vitro cytotoxicity tests supported their clinical applicability. Their structural differences (eg roughness, fibre thickness, pore morphology) were evaluated using the two-photon confocal laser scanning, atomic force, scanning electron and polarized light microscopies. HMDC and EDC samples appeared to be the roughest. Complex mechanical trials indicated the tendency to reduced Young's Modulus and mechanical anisotropy values of DBP upon cross-linking. The lowest mechanical anisotropy was found in EDC and genipin sample groups. In vitro collagenase susceptibility was the highest for EDC samples and the lowest for EGDE samples. The comparative analysis of the results allowed us to recognize the strengths and weaknesses of each cross-linker in relation to a particular clinical application.

    Abstract Chromosomal double-strand breaks (DSBs) that have only one end with homology to a donor duplex undergo repair by strand invasion followed by replication to the chromosome terminus (break-induced replication, BIR). Using a transformation-based assay system, it was previously shown that BIR could occur by several rounds of strand invasion, DNA synthesis, and dissociation. Here we describe a modification of the transformation-based assay to facilitate detection of switching between donor templates during BIR by genetic selection in diploid yeast. In addition to the expected recovery of template switch products, we found a high frequency of recombination between chromosome homologs during BIR, suggesting transfer of the DSB from the transforming linear DNA to the donor chromosome, initiating secondary recombination events. The frequency of BIR increased in the mph1Δ mutant, but the percentage of template switch events was significantly decreased, revealing an important role for Mph1 in promoting BIR-associated template switching. In addition, we show that the Mus81, Rad1, and Yen1 structure-selective nucleases act redundantly to facilitate BIR.

    Abstract The Mre11-Rad50-Xrs2/NBS1 (MRX/N) nuclease/ATPase complex plays structural and catalytic roles in the repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) and is the DNA damage sensor for Tel1/ATM kinase activation. Saccharomyces cerevisiae Sae2 can function with MRX to initiate 5'-3' end resection and also plays an important role in attenuation of DNA damage signaling. Here we describe a class of mre11 alleles that suppresses the DNA damage sensitivity of sae2Δ cells by accelerating turnover of Mre11 at DNA ends, shutting off the DNA damage checkpoint and allowing cell cycle progression. The mre11 alleles do not suppress the end resection or hairpin-opening defects of the sae2Δ mutant, indicating that these functions of Sae2 are not responsible for DNA damage resistance. The purified M(P110L)RX complex shows reduced binding to single- and double-stranded DNA in vitro relative to wild-type MRX, consistent with the increased turnover of Mre11 from damaged sites in vivo. Furthermore, overproduction of Mre11 causes DNA damage sensitivity only in the absence of Sae2. Together, these data suggest that it is the failure to remove Mre11 from DNA ends and attenuate Rad53 kinase signaling that causes hypersensitivity of sae2Δ cells to clastogens.

    Abstract Articular cartilage is a highly organized tissue that has a limited ability to heal. Tissue engineering is actively exploited for joint tissue reconstruction in numerous cases of articular cartilage degeneration associated with trauma, arthrosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoarthritis. However, the optimal scaffolds for cartilage repair are not yet identified. Here we have directly compared five various scaffolds, namely collagen-I membrane, collagen-II membrane, decellularized cartilage, a cellulose-based implant, and commercially available Chondro-Gide ® (Geistlich Pharma AG, Wolhusen, Switzerland) collagen membrane. The scaffolds were implanted in osteochondral full-thickness defects, formed on adult Wistar rats using a hand-held cutter with a diameter of 2.0 mm and a depth of up to the subchondral bone. The congruence of the articular surface was almost fully restored by decellularized cartilage and collagen type II-based scaffold. The most vivid restoration was observed 4 months after the implantation. The formation of hyaline cartilage was not detected in any of the groups. Despite cellular infiltration into scaffolds being observed in each group except cellulose, neither chondrocytes nor chondro-progenitors were detected. We concluded that for restoration of hyaline cartilage, scaffolds have to be combined either with cellular therapy or morphogens promoting chondrogenic differentiation.
