A selection strategy to obtain cells deficient in poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase was developed based on the fact that treatment with high levels of N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine results in sufficient activation of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase to cause NAD and ATP depletion leading to cessation of all energy-dependent processes and rapid cell death. In contrast, cells with low levels of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase should not consume their NAD and might therefore be more likely to survive the DNA damage. Using this approach, we have cloned a number of cell lines containing 37-82% enzyme activity. The apparent decrease in poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase activity is not due to increases in NAD glycohydrolase, poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase, or phosphodiesterase activities. Further characterization of the poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-deficient cells indicates that they have prolonged generation times and increased rates of spontaneous sister chromatid exchanges.

The effects of hyperthermia on adenine nucleotide metabolism including NAD and poly(ADP-ribose) have been studied in confluent cultures of C3H10T1/2 cells. Cells replated immediately following hyperthermic treatment showed only 9% survival relative to controls while after a 24-h recovery period at 37 degrees C survival was 87% of control. Hyperthermic treatment caused no detectable effect on total cellular levels of either NAD or ATP but produced a prolonged increase in cellular content of poly(ADP-ribose). Studies of the mechanism of this effect show that a major alteration of poly(ADP-ribose) metabolism caused by hyperthermia involves a decrease in the rate of turnover of polymers of ADP-ribose. Normal polymer turnover rates were restored during recovery at 37 degrees C even in the presence of cyclohexamide. The results argue that poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase activity is reversibly altered by hyperthermia. Inhibition of poly(ADP-ribose) synthesis following hyperthermia delays recovery of normal rates of protein synthesis and recovery of the ability of the cells to plate and form colonies.

Poly(ADP-ribose) is a reversible covalent-modifier of chromosomal proteins in eukaryotic cells. The function of poly(ADP-ribose) is not clear, although it has been suggested to be involved in the regulation of DNA transactions such as replication, repair, and transcription. Here we describe a specific competitive inhibitor of poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase, a macrocircular ellagitannin oenothein B, and a nuclear system prepared from synchronized HeLa S3 cells at mid-G1 phase that enable us to examine the role of poly(ADP-ribose) catabolism in DNA repair. The results suggest that poly(ADP-ribose) is capable of generating ATP by the concerted action of poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase and ADP-ribose pyrophosphorylase and that this ATP enables repair DNA synthesis.

In the present study, we examined the role and the mechanism of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) and poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG) activation in zinc-induced cell death in cortical culture. After brief exposure to 400 microM zinc, cortical cells exhibited DNA fragmentation, increased poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation, and decreased levels of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) and ATP and subsequently underwent cell death. Inhibitors of PARP/PARG attenuated both zinc-induced NAD/ATP depletion and cell death, thereby implicating the PARP/PARG cascade in these processes. The zinc-inducible enzymes NADPH oxidase and neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) contributed to PARP activation as their inhibitors attenuated zinc-induced poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation. Levels of nitric oxide and nitrites increased following zinc exposure, consistent with NOS activation. In addition, Western blots and RT-PCR analysis revealed that protein and mRNA levels of nNOS specifically increased following zinc exposure in a manner similar to that of NADPH oxidase. The present study demonstrates that induction of NADPH oxidase and nNOS actively contributes to PARP/PARG-mediated NAD/ATP depletion and cell death induced by zinc in cortical culture.

Poly(ADP-ribose) is synthesized from nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD(+)) by poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) and degraded by poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG). Overactivation of the poly(ADP-ribose) pathway increases nicotinamide and decreases cellular NAD(+)/ATP, which leads to cell death. Blocking poly(ADP-ribose) metabolism by inactivating PARP has been shown to reduce ischemia injury. We investigated whether disrupting the poly(ADP-ribose) cycle by PARG inhibition could achieve similar protection. We demonstrate that either pre- or post-ischemia treatment with 40 mg/kg of N-bis-(3-phenyl-propyl)9-oxo-fluorene-2,7-diamide, a novel PARG inhibitor, significantly reduces brain infarct volumes by 40-53% in a rat model of focal cerebral ischemia. Our result provides the first evidence that PARG inhibitors can ameliorate ischemic brain damage in vivo, in support of PARG as a new therapeutic target for treating ischemia injury.

Oxidative stress-induced cytotoxicity is mediated in part by accelerated poly-ADP ribosylation. Peroxynitrite and hydrogen peroxide cause DNA breakage triggering the activation of the DNA nick sensor enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1). Overactivation of PARP-1 leads to cell dysfunction and cell death mainly due to depletion of NAD(+) (the substrate of PARP-1) and ATP. PARP-1 attaches most ADP-ribose residues onto itself, leading to downregulation of enzyme activity. Here, we have investigated the role of poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG), the poly(ADP-ribose)-catabolyzing enzyme in oxidative stress-induced cytotoxicity in HaCaT cells. We have found that inhibition of PARG by gallotannin (GT) (50 microM) provided significant cytoprotection to peroxynitrite- or hydrogen peroxide-treated HaCaT cells, as assessed by lactate dehydrogenase release and propidium iodide uptake (parameters of necrotic cell death) as well as caspase activation (apoptotic parameter). GT pretreatment has also inhibited the depletion of cellular NAD(+) pools in hydrogen peroxide- or peroxynitrite-treated HaCaT cells. GT caused the accumulation of poly(ADP-ribose) and concomitant inhibition in cellular PARP activity in oxidatively stressed cells. Therefore, PARG is likely to contribute to maintaining the active state of PARP-1 by continuously removing inhibitory ADP-ribose residues from PARP-1.

PARP-1 is the most abundantly expressed member of a family of proteins that catalyze the transfer of ADP-ribose units from NAD+ to target proteins. Herein, we describe previously uncharacterized nucleosome binding properties of PARP-1 that promote the formation of compact, transcriptionally repressed chromatin structures. PARP-1 binds in a specific manner to nucleosomes and modulates chromatin structure through NAD+-dependent automodification, without modifying core histones or promoting the disassembly of nucleosomes. The automodification activity of PARP-1 is potently stimulated by nucleosomes, causing the release of PARP-1 from chromatin. The NAD+-dependent activities of PARP-1 are reversed by PARG, a poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase, and are inhibited by ATP. In vivo, PARP-1 incorporation is associated with transcriptionally repressed chromatin domains that are spatially distinct from both histone H1-repressed domains and actively transcribed regions. Thus, PARP-1 functions both as a structural component of chromatin and a modulator of chromatin structure through its intrinsic enzymatic activity.

ATP affects poly(ADP-ribose) metabolism at two distinct sites: it inhibits poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 and activates the glycohydrolase directly. The inhibitory site of ATP on poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 was identified by amino acid exchange mutation to be at the arginine 34 residue in the first Zn2+ finger. Mutation of 138 arginine residue of Zn2+ finger 2 had negligible influence on the inhibitory action of ATP, pinpointing arginine 34 of the first Zn2+ finger as the specific ATP site. The glycohydrolase protein was activated by ATP when the substrate was a long-chain ADP-ribose polymer, but not with a short-chain substrate. Isolated cell nuclei also responded to both inhibition of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase by ATP and to poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase activation by ATP, demonstrating that enzymological results can be extrapolated to cellular systems. The activation of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase in nuclei by an alkylating drug was completely suppressed by ATP, demonstrating that the bioenergetic competence of cells can regulate the cytocidal action of DNA alkylating drugs. The potential significance of bioenergetic regulation of poly(ADP-ribose) metabolism is proposed.

The formation of ATP produced from poly(ADP-ribose) [(ADP-R)n] has been suggested to be required to repair damaged DNA. Here we investigate whether this ATP is involved in DNA replication processes during DNA repair. Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ated mid-S phase cell nuclei, which were isolated from synchronized HeLa S3 cells followed by the treatment with a DNA damaging agent, N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG), were revealed to retain DNA replication synthesizing activity during preincubation for de-poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation only in the presence of pyrophosphate (PPi) before DNA synthesis was started by adding 3 mM ATP. This DNA replication activity was not maintained in the presence of a potent and specific inhibitor of poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG), Oenothein B (Oen B) during the preincubation with PPi. In the preincubation with PPi, muM orders of ATP was produced from (ADP-R)n. These results point to an important function of ATP generated from (ADP-R)n in nuclei for the maintenance of replication apparatus during DNA repair.

Upon massive DNA damage, hyperactivation of the nuclear enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP)-1 causes severe depletion of intracellular NAD and ATP pools as well as mitochondrial dysfunction. Thus far, the molecular mechanisms contributing to PARP-1-dependent impairment of mitochondrial functioning have not been identified. We found that degradation of the PARP-1 product poly(ADP-ribose) through the concerted actions of poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase and NUDIX (nucleoside diphosphate-X) hydrolases leads to accumulation of AMP. The latter, in turn, inhibits the ADP/ATP translocator, prompting mitochondrial energy failure. For the first time, our findings identify NUDIX hydrolases as key enzymes involved in energy derangement during PARP-1 hyperactivity. Also, these data disclose unanticipated AMP-dependent impairment of mitochondrial exchange of adenine nucleotides, which can be of relevance to organelle functioning and disease pathogenesis.
