    Abstract The primary cause of morbidity and mortality from infection with respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the excessive innate immune response(s) (IIR) in which reactive oxygen species (ROS) play key role(s). However, the mechanisms for these processes are not fully understood. We hypothesized that expressions of IIR genes are controlled by the ROS-generated epigenetic-like mark 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo(d)guanine (8-oxo(d)Gua) and 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase1 (OGG1). Here, we report that ROS not only generates intrahelical 8-oxo(d)Gua, but also enzymatically disables OGG1 in RSV-infected human airway epithelial cells and mouse lungs. OGG1 bound to 8-oxo(d)Gua in gene regulatory sequences promotes expression of IIR genes, and consequently exacerbates lung inflammation, histological changes, and body weight loss of experimental animals. Pharmacological inhibition of OGG1 substrate binding decreased expression of RSV-induced chemokine and cytokines and significantly lessened clinical symptoms. Results of mechanistic studies show that OGG1 binding at 8-oxo(d)Gua promoter regions modulated loading of transcription factors via transient cooperative interactions in RSV-infected lungs and airway epithelial cells. Other base specific DNA repair proteins had no effects. Collectively, this study identifies unprecedented roles of ROS-generated DNA base lesion(s) and cognate repair protein as a determinant of RSV-induced exuberant inflammation. Pharmaceutical inhibition of OGG1 interaction with its DNA substrate may represent a novel strategy in prevention/intervention of respiratory viral infections.

    Abstract Abstract SARS-CoV-2 infection-induced aggravation of host innate immune response not only causes tissue damage and multiorgan failure in COVID-19 patients but also induces host genome damage and activates DNA damage response pathways. To test whether the compromised DNA repair capacity of individuals modulates the severity of COVID-19 infection, we analyze DNA repair gene expression in publicly available patient datasets and observe a lower level of the DNA glycosylase NEIL2 in the lungs of severely infected COVID-19 patients. This observation of lower NEIL2 levels is further validated in infected patients, hamsters and ACE2 receptor-expressing human A549 (A549-ACE2) cells. Furthermore, delivery of recombinant NEIL2 in A549-ACE2 cells shows decreased expression of proinflammatory genes and viral E-gene, as well as lowers the yield of viral progeny compared to mock-treated cells. Mechanistically, NEIL2 cooperatively binds to the 5’-UTR of SARS-CoV-2 genomic RNA to block viral protein synthesis. Collectively, these data strongly suggest that the maintenance of basal NEIL2 levels is critical for the protective response of hosts to viral infection and disease.

    Abstract 8-Oxoguanine DNA glycosylase 1 (OGG1) initiates the base excision repair pathway by removing one of the most abundant DNA lesions, 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoG). Recent data showed that 8-oxoG not only is a pro-mutagenic genomic base lesion, but also functions as an epigenetic mark and that consequently OGG1 acquire distinct roles in modulation of gene expression. In support, lack of functional OGG1 in Ogg1-/- mice led to an altered expression of genes including those responsible for the aberrant innate and adaptive immune responses and susceptibility to metabolic disorders. Therefore, the present study examined stimulus-driven OGG1-DNA interactions at whole genome level using chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP)-coupled sequencing, and the roles of OGG1 enriched on the genome were validated by molecular and system-level approaches. Results showed that signaling levels of cellular ROS generated by TNFα, induced enrichment of OGG1 at specific sites of chromatinized DNA, primarily in the regulatory regions of genes. OGG1-ChIP-ed genes are associated with important cellular and biological processes and OGG1 enrichment was limited to a time scale required for immediate cellular responses. Prevention of OGG1-DNA interactions by siRNA depletion led to modulation of NF-κB's DNA occupancy and differential expression of genes. Taken together these data show TNFα-ROS-driven enrichment of OGG1 at gene regulatory regions in the chromatinized DNA, which is a prerequisite to modulation of gene expression for prompt cellular responses to oxidant stress.

    Abstract How huntingtin (HTT) triggers neurotoxicity in Huntington’s disease (HD) remains unclear. We report that HTT forms a transcription-coupled DNA repair (TCR) complex with RNA polymerase II subunit A (POLR2A), ataxin-3, the DNA repair enzyme polynucleotide-kinase-3'-phosphatase (PNKP), and cyclic AMP-response element-binding (CREB) protein (CBP). This complex senses and facilitates DNA damage repair during transcriptional elongation, but its functional integrity is impaired by mutant HTT. Abrogated PNKP activity results in persistent DNA break accumulation, preferentially in actively transcribed genes, and aberrant activation of DNA damage-response ataxia telangiectasia-mutated (ATM) signaling in HD transgenic mouse and cell models. A concomitant decrease in Ataxin-3 activity facilitates CBP ubiquitination and degradation, adversely impacting transcription and DNA repair. Increasing PNKP activity in mutant cells improves genome integrity and cell survival. These findings suggest a potential molecular mechanism of how mutant HTT activates DNA damage-response pro-degenerative pathways and impairs transcription, triggering neurotoxicity and functional decline in HD.

    Abstract 8-Oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoG) is one of the most abundant DNA base lesions induced by reactive oxygen species (ROS). Accumulation of 8-oxoG in the mammalian genome is considered a marker of oxidative stress, to be causally linked to inflammation, and is thought to contribute to aging processes and various aging-related diseases. Unexpectedly, mice that lack 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase-1 (OGG1) activity and accumulate 8-oxoG in their genome have a normal phenotype and longevity; in fact, they show increased resistance to both inflammation and oxidative stress. OGG1 excises and generates free 8-oxoG base during DNA base-excision repair (BER) processes. In the present study, we report that in the presence of the 8-oxoG base, OGG1 physically interacts with guanine nucleotide-free and GDP-bound Rac1 protein. This interaction results in rapid GDP→GTP, but not GTP→GDP, exchange in vitro. Importantly, a rise in the intracellular 8-oxoG base levels increases the proportion of GTP-bound Rac1. In turn Rac1-GTP mediates an increase in ROS levels via nuclear membrane-associated NADPH oxidase type 4. These results show a novel mechanism by which OGG1 in complex with 8-oxoG is linked to redox signaling and cellular responses.

    Abstract Secondhand smoke (SHS) is a confirmed lung carcinogen that introduces thousands of toxic chemicals into the lungs. SHS contains chemicals that have been implicated in causing oxidative DNA damage in the airway epithelium. Although DNA repair is considered a key defensive mechanism against various environmental attacks, such as cigarette smoking, the associations of individual repair enzymes with susceptibility to lung cancer are largely unknown. This study investigated the role of NEIL2, a DNA glycosylase excising oxidative base lesions, in human lung cells treated with sidestream smoke (SSS), the main component of SHS. To do so, we generated NEIL2 knockdown cells using siRNA-technology and exposed them to SSS-laden medium. Representative SSS chemical compounds in the medium were analyzed by mass spectrometry. An increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in SSS-exposed cells was detected through the fluorescent detection and the induction of HIF-1α. The long amplicon-quantitative PCR (LA-QPCR) assay detected significant dose-dependent increases of oxidative DNA damage in the HPRT gene of cultured human pulmonary fibroblasts (hPF) and BEAS-2B epithelial cells exposed to SSS for 24 h. These data suggest that SSS exposure increased oxidative stress, which could contribute to SSS-mediated toxicity. siRNA knockdown of NEIL2 in hPF and HEK 293 cells exposed to SSS for 24 h resulted in significantly more oxidative DNA damage in HPRT and POLB than in cells with control siRNA. Taken together, our data strongly suggest that decreased repair of oxidative DNA base lesions due to an impaired NEIL2 expression in non-smokers exposed to SSS would lead to accumulation of mutations in genomic DNA of lung cells over time, thus contributing to the onset of SSS-induced lung cancer.
