RESUMO
The cellular response to DNA damage is crucial for maintaining the integrity and stability of molecular structure. To maintain genome stability, DNA-damaged cells should be arrested so that mutations can be repaired before replication. Although several key components required for this arrest have been discovered, the majority of the pathways are still unclear. Through a number of assays, including cell viability, colony formation, and apotheosis assay, we found that AKR1B10 protected cells from UVC-induced DNA damage. Surprisingly, UVC-induced γH2AX foci and DNA double-strand breaks in the AKR1B10-overexpressing cells were â¼4-5 folds lower than those in the control group. The expression levels of AKR1B10, p53, chk1, chk2, nuclear factor (NF)-κB, and p65 showed dynamic changes in response to UVC irradiation. Our results suggested that AKR1B10 is involved in the pathway of cell cycle checkpoint and NF-κB in DNA damage. Taken together, our results suggest that AKR1B10 is involved in the repair of the DNA double-strand break, which provides a new insight into the role of AKR1B10 in DNA damage repair and indicates a new trail in tumorigenesis and cancer drug resistance.

Objective To prepare rabbit anti-aldo-keto reductase family 1 member B10 (AKR1B10) polyclonal antibody and identify its specificity. Methods AKR1B10 cDNA was amplified by reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) and inserted into prokaryotic expression vector pET-15b to form recombinant plasmid pET-15b-AKR1B10. The recombinant plasmid pET-15b-AKR1B10 was transformed into E.coli DH5α. Isopropylthio-ß-D-galactoside (IPTG) was used to induce the expression of the recombinant protein His-tagged AKR1B10 in E.coli DH5α. The expression products from different clones of E.coli DH5α were identified by SDS-PAGE. The positive bacteria were picked out and amplified. His-Tag-AKR1B10 protein was purified from the expression product of the positive clones by His-tagged purification column. The purified recombinant protein His-Tag-AKR1B10 was used to immunize New Zealand white rabbits. Antisera were acquired after two months. Anti-AKR1B10 polyclonal antibodies were purified by antigen purification column with AKR1B10 recombinant protein. Lastly, the purified polyclonal antibodies were identified by SDS-PAGE, ELISA, Western blotting. Results The recombinant plasmid pET-15b-AKR1B10 was constructed successfully, and the recombinant protein His-Tag-AKR1B10 with high purity was acquired. The purified polyclonal antibodies were able to specifically recognize AKR1B10 protein. Conclusion The rabbit anti-AKR1B10 polyclonal antibodies is prepared successfully with high specificity.
