RESUMO
Double-strand breaks (DSBs) are harmful lesions and a major cause of genome instability. Studies have suggested a link between the nuclear envelope and the DNA damage response. Here, we show that lamin B1, a major component of the nuclear envelope, interacts directly with 53BP1 protein, which plays a pivotal role in the DSB repair. This interaction is dissociated after DNA damage. Lamin B1 overexpression impedes 53BP1 recruitment to DNA damage sites and leads to a persistence of DNA damage, a defect in nonhomologous end joining and an increased sensitivity to DSBs. The identification of interactions domains between lamin B1 and 53BP1 allows us to demonstrate that the defect of 53BP1 recruitment and the DSB persistence upon lamin B1 overexpression are due to sequestration of 53BP1 by lamin B1. This study highlights lamin B1 as a factor controlling the recruitment of 53BP1 to DNA damage sites upon injury.

Double-stranded breaks (DSB), the most toxic DNA lesions, are either a consequence of cellular metabolism, programmed as in during V(D)J recombination, or induced by anti-tumoral therapies or accidental genotoxic exposure. One origin of DSB sources is replicative stress, a major source of genome instability, especially when the integrity of the replication forks is not properly guaranteed. To complete stalled replication, restarting the fork requires complex molecular mechanisms, such as protection, remodeling, and processing. Recently, a link has been made between DNA damage accumulation and inflammation. Indeed, defects in DNA repair or in replication can lead to the release of DNA fragments in the cytosol. The recognition of this self-DNA by DNA sensors leads to the production of inflammatory factors. This beneficial response activating an innate immune response and destruction of cells bearing DNA damage may be considered as a novel part of DNA damage response. However, upon accumulation of DNA damage, a chronic inflammatory cellular microenvironment may lead to inflammatory pathologies, aging, and progression of tumor cells. Progress in understanding the molecular mechanisms of DNA damage repair, replication stress, and cytosolic DNA production would allow to propose new therapeutical strategies against cancer or inflammatory diseases associated with aging. In this review, we describe the mechanisms involved in DSB repair, the replicative stress management, and its consequences. We also focus on new emerging links between key components of the nuclear envelope, the lamins, and DNA repair, management of replicative stress, and inflammation.

The accumulation of senescent cells accompanies organismal aging. Senescent cells produce an inflammatory microenvironment that is conducive to the development of many age-related diseases. Here we describe the different situations leading to cellular senescence and show that these situations are frequently associated with DNA damage. We also discuss the intimate link between cell aging and perturbations in the nuclear envelope, namely in nuclear lamins, as seen in progeroid syndromes. Finally, we present evidence that these alterations are associated with DNA repair defects, the persistence of DNA damage, and an inflammatory phenotype.
TITLE: Le vieillissement - Une histoire de dommages de l'ADN, d'enveloppe nucléaire altérée et d'inflammation ? ABSTRACT: Le vieillissement est associé à une accumulation de cellules sénescentes produisant un environnement cellulaire inflammatoire qui pourrait expliquer différentes maladies liées à l'âge. Diverses situations menant à la sénescence sont liées à la présence de dommages de l'ADN. De plus, de nombreux syndromes progéroïdes sont associés à une instabilité du génome ou de la structure nucléaire. Nous discuterons du lien étroit existant entre l'altération des lamines, composants de l'enveloppe nucléaire, et le vieillissement cellulaire. Nous verrons que l'altération de l'enveloppe nucléaire, comme celle observée dans la Progéria, est aussi associée à des défauts de réparation de l'ADN, à une persistance de dommages de l'ADN et à un phénotype inflammatoire.

Cancer cells can use a telomerase-independent mechanism, known as alternative lengthening of telomeres (ALT), to elongate their telomeres. General control non-derepressible 5 (GCN5) and P300/CBP-associated factor (PCAF) are two homologous acetyltransferases that are mutually exclusive subunits in SAGA-like complexes. Here, we reveal that down regulation of GCN5 and PCAF had differential effects on some phenotypic characteristics of ALT cells. Our results suggest that GCN5 is present at telomeres and opposes telomere recombination, in contrast to PCAF that may indirectly favour them in ALT cells.
