Broad repression of DNA repair genes in senescent cells identified by integration of transcriptomic data.

Cellular senescence plays a significant role in tissue aging. Senescent cells, which resist apoptosis while remaining metabolically active, generate endogenous DNA-damaging agents, primarily reactive oxygen species. Efficient DNA repair is therefore crucial in these cells, especially when they undergo senescence escape, resuming DNA replication and cellular proliferation.

The rate and pattern of mutagenesis in cancer genomes is significantly influenced by DNA accessibility and active biological processes. Here we show that efficient sites of replication initiation drive and modulate specific mutational processes in cancer. Sites of replication initiation impede nucleotide excision repair in melanoma and are off-targets for activation-induced deaminase (AICDA) activity in lymphomas.

Background: Platinum chemotherapy (CT) remains the backbone of systemic therapy for patients with small-cell lung cancer (SCLC). The nucleotide excision repair (NER) pathway plays a central role in the repair of the DNA damage exerted by platinum agents. Alteration in this repair mechanism may affect patients' survival.

Exposure to reactive oxygen species (ROS) can induce DNA-protein crosslinks (DPCs), unusually bulky DNA lesions that block replication and transcription and play a role in aging, cancer, cardiovascular disease, and neurodegenerative disorders. Repair of DPCs depends on the coordinated efforts of proteases and DNA repair enzymes to cleave the protein component of the lesion to smaller DNA-peptide crosslinks which can be processed by tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterases 1 and 2, nucleotide excision and homologous recombination repair pathways. DNA-dependent metalloprotease SPRTN plays a role in DPC repair, and SPRTN-deficient mice exhibit an accelerated aging phenotype and develop liver cancer early in life.

Xeroderma pigmentosum group C (XPC) is a versatile protein crucial for sensing DNA damage in the global genome nucleotide excision repair (GG-NER) pathway. This pathway is vital for mammalian cells, acting as their essential approach for repairing DNA lesions stemming from interactions with environmental factors, such as exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun. Loss-of-function mutations in the XPC gene confer a photosensitive phenotype in XP-C patients, resulting in the accumulation of unrepaired UV-induced DNA damage.
