ATM expression

In addition, all T-LBLs demonstrate constitutive expression of pAKT, indicating the presence of activated AKT signaling, and are sensitive to treatment with the pan-AKT inhibitor MK-2206, suggesting that these lymphomas are dependent on pAKT signaling for their survival. Lastly, ATM-deficiency itself does not cause loss of PTEN or dysregulated AKT signaling, as ATM-deficient non-malignant thymocytes express wild-type levels of PTEN and lack detectable pAKT. This study demonstrates for the first time that the majority of ATM-deficient thymic T-LBLs lose PTEN expression and all depend on AKT signaling for survival, suggesting their potential use as an animal model for PI3K/AKT/MTOR pathway dysfunction in human T-ALL.

Our data suggest that HPV-negative HNSCC with particularly low Ku80 expression represent a highly radiosensitive subpopulation. Confirmation in independent cohorts is required.

ATMlow in GCs shows a characteristic clinicopathological feature that correlates strongly with ARID1Alow. ATM mutation was also associated with ARID1A mutations, highlighting the interactions between ATM and ARID1A in GC and suggesting a potential therapeutic target.

GZ17-6.02 interacted with doxorubicin or ERBB family inhibitors to significantly enhance tumor cell killing which was associated with greater levels of autophagosome formation and autophagic flux...The components of GZ17-6.02 were detected in tumors using a syngeneic tumor model. Our data support future testing GZ17-6.02 in uveal melanoma as a single agent, in combination with ERBB family inhibitors, in combination with cytotoxic drugs, or with an anti-PD1 immunotherapy.

Results also suggest that expansion of exhausted NKG2D+ NK cells in Atm-/- mice is driven by low-level expression of stress-inducible NKG2D ligands, whereas development of thymoma expressing the high-affinity MULT1 ligand is associated with NKG2D down-regulation on NK cells. These results expand our understanding of immunodeficiency in A-T and encourage exploring NK cell biology in A-T patients in the attempt to identify cancer predictive biomarkers and novel therapeutic targets.

Furthermore, phosphorylation of STAT1/3 following the activation of ATM/ATR/CHK1 is indispensable for the DSB-dependent upregulation of MHC-I. Therefore, our findings reveal the role of RT-MP-induced DSBs and the subsequent DNA repair signalling pathway in MHC-I expression and provide mechanistic insights into the regulation of MHC-I expression after DSBs.

The results of this follow-up analysis continue to support the promise of combined gemcitabine/ATRi therapy in platinum resistant ovarian cancer, an active area of investigation with several ongoing clinical trials.

With PTEN and CHEK2 pathogenic mutations, abnormal IHC patterns are seen in early atypical proliferative lesions. IHC may be applied to identify CHEK2 &PTEN mutated BCs and precursor lesions.

Protein expression levels of DNA-PKcs, ATM, ATR, and P53/P21 signaling pathways significantly decreased in RT + MW-HT groups. MW-HT + RT treatment significantly inhibited DNA damage repair by downregulating DNA-PKcs, ATM, ATR, and P53/P21 signaling pathways, leading to increased ROS levels, aggravate DNA damage, apoptosis, and necrosis in PC3 cells, a well-established model of CRPC.

In total, 76% (16/21) of patients with iPGVs co-expressed somatic alterations, with 56% (9/16) demonstrating alterations in targetable genes. Overall, our real-world findings offer a point prevalence of iPGVs in patients with NSCLC of diverse populations, such as patients who report Hispanic/Latinx ethnicity.

We also demonstrated that clioquinol induced zinc influx and oxidation of the copper chaperone ATOX1, leading to the impairment of the functional maturation of a copper-dependent enzyme dopamine-β-hydroxylase and the inhibition of noradrenaline biosynthesis. Thus, clioquinol-induced neurotoxicity in SMON seems to be mediated by multiple pathways.

Responses to ceralasertib monotherapy were limited in ATM-altered tumors, despite reaching target plasma levels. Alternative pt selection and combination treatment strategies are being explored.

In addition, innate immunity signaling pathways appear to play a critical role in ATM functions in microglia, responding to various forms of nucleic acid sensors and regulating survival of neurons and other cell types. Overall, the results lead to an updated view of transcriptional stress and DNA damage resulting from ATM loss that results in changes in gene expression as well as neuroinflammation that contribute to the cerebellar neurodegeneration observed in patients.

The present study proposed five novel therapeutic targets, i.e., ATM, GAPDH, CREB1, VEGFA, and CDH1 genes that might provide new insights into molecular oncogenesis of CRC.

Moreover, BA up-regulated caspase-3 and E-cadherin expression. Consequently, we can say that BA affects DNA DSB and the apoptotic abilities of LC-SCs.

Our study has demonstrated that BCAT1 expression can serve as a reliable predictor for AML patients, and PARP inhibitor BMN673 can be used as an effective treatment strategy for patients with high BCAT1 expression...H3K9me3 inhibits ATM expression and blocks cellular DNA damage repair process. Increased sensitivity of BCAT1 high expression AML to PARP inhibitors may be used as an effective treatment strategy in AML patients.

Our results suggest RAD51, BRCA1, and BRCA2 methylation as a frequent epigenetic mechanism in gastric cancer, support the hypothesis that reduced BRCA1 expression participates in disease progression, and show an association between RAD51 mRNA and perineural invasion and mortality that may be considered unexpected, considering the former immunohistochemical studies. The lack of correlation between immunohistochemistry and mRNA, and even the inverse association, for ATR, can be seen as indicative of action of post-transcriptional or post-translational regulatory mechanisms, to be better investigated.

Finally, we identified a negative correlation between changes in phospho-ATM and PD-L1 levels in TNBC post- and pre-neoadjuvant therapy. This study reveals a novel mechanism by which ATM negatively regulates PD-L1 by downregulating JNK/c-Jun/TNF-α in TNBC, shedding light on the wide application of immune checkpoint blockade therapy for treating multi-line-resistant TNBC.

Therefore, the DDR mediates KSHV and HSV-1 circularization. This strategy may serve as a general herpesvirus mechanism to initiate latency, and its disruption may provide new opportunities for prevention of herpesvirus disease.

The five AML cell lines demonstrated sensitivity to monotherapy with GSK-368, AZD-1390, or AZD-6738 (EC50 value ranges from 5.461 to 7.349 nM, 5.821 to 10.120 nM, and 7.618 to 10.100 nM, respectively). DNMT1, ATM, and ATR possess potential as therapeutic targets for AML. Both individual targeting and combination targeting of these molecules have been confirmed as promising therapeutic approaches for AML.

Further analysis revealed that KU-55933 potentiates Olaparib-induced cell apoptosis by inhibiting ATM phosphorylation. Our study demonstrates that inhibiting ATM could enhance the sensitivity of endometrial cancer to Olaparib, thereby providing a potential alternative treatment for the clinical treatment of endometrial cancer.

Such enhanced energy expenditure is associated with increased levels of norepinephrine (NE) and lipolysis in white adipose tissues, likely due to decreased expression of monoamine oxidase, a NE degradation enzyme, by Fap ATM. Collectively, our study identifies FAP as a previously unrecognized regulator of ATM function contributing to diet-induced obesity and metabolic inflammation and suggests FAP as a potential immunotherapeutic target against metabolic disorders.

Consequently, BA affects some of the DNA DSB repair genes of breast cancer stem cells. Findings from this study could provide new insights into the potential therapeutic application of BA in BC-SC elimination and cancer intervention.

Thus, this proves that PSPC1 inhibition enhances olaparib sensitivity by targeting DNA damage response in our preclinical model. The combination of olaparib and PSPC1 inhibition merits further clinical investigation to enhance PARP inhibitor efficacy.

Notably, PTCHD4-AS was found to be transcriptionally induced by DNA damage agents and its upregulation led to cell cycle arrest at the G2/M phase, in parallel, it facilitated the cell apoptosis induced by cisplatin (CDDP) in GC. Mechanistically, PTCHD4-AS directly bound to the DNA mismatch repair protein MSH2-MSH6 dimer, and facilitated the binding of dimer to ATM, thereby promoting the expression of phosphorylated ATM, p53 and p21. Here we conclude that the upregulation of PTCHD4-AS inhibits proliferation and increases CDDP sensitivity of GC cells via binding with MSH2-MSH6 dimer, activating the ATM-p53-p21 pathway.

Reconstitution of ATM and inhibition of XBP1 or EGR2 in PCa T cells suppressed LAG3 expression and restored the effector function of CD4 T cells from PCa. Our study revealed the mechanism of LAG3 upregulation in CD4 T lymphocytes of PCa patients and may provide insights for the development of immunotherapeutic strategies for PCa treatment.

Like HIV associated DLBCL, these results show that PTLD is more genomically stable than IC-DLBCL, and that genomic stability is further enhanced in EBV(+)PTLD which have increased expression of UPS related genes. In contrast, EBV(-)PTLD have increased expression of DNA damage repair genes, including RAD51. In summary, monomorphic DLBCL PTLD tumors have enhanced genomic stability that appears to be mediated by two distinct mechanisms stratified by EBV status.

This would be because the PARP inhibitors were still effective in inhibiting the DNA repair in Reh-IO-R cells where the DNA repair function was not augmented. [Conclusion]The combination of IO with PARP inhibitors synergized the antileukemic effect of IO by inhibiting DNA strand break repair in CD22-positive ALL cell lines and IO-resistant ALL cells, suggesting that these results may contribute to overcoming the IO resistance mechanisms.

We show that ATM loss is sufficient to increase sensitivity to DNA-damaging agents including cisplatin and radiation...Last, we show that ATM expression by immunohistochemistry is strongly correlated with response to chemoradiotherapy. Together, these data define a potential role for ATM as a predictive biomarker in bladder cancer.

The in vivo investigations revealed ATM induced proliferation of CRPC and macrophage recruitment, while the NK cell recruitment was found to suppress ATM expression and CRPC proliferation. In conclusion, it could be demonstrated that inhibiting ATM increased the susceptibility of CRPC to NK cell inhibitors by dampening the CXCL12 and PI3K/AKT-PD-L1 pathways, thereby offering a novel and individualized treatment protocol for treating CRPC.

Together, this study established a rapid screening assay coupled with a customized image-analysis pipeline for the identification of antimetastatic drugs. Our study implicates that ATM may serve as a potent therapeutic target for the treatment of melanoma cell spread in patients.

To evaluate the effect of FLT3 inhibitors in ALL, we treated ex vivo primary leukemic cells of 6 adult ALL patients (FLT3 mut n=4; FLT3 wt n=2) with increasing concentrations of Gilteritinib, Midostaurin, Crenolanib, Sorafenib and Quizartibin for 24, 48 and 72h. AIRC IG 2019 (Project Code: 23810). Figure 1.

In conclusion, our study for the first time reported that piperine sensitizes breast cancer cells to radiation by accumulating DNA breaks, through altering the expression of DNA-PK Complex, and DDR proteins, via selective estrogen receptor modulation, offering a novel strategy for combating radioresistance.

The reduction in titers could not be explained by impaired packaging of the viral genomes, but the main differences occurred after transduction. Finally, after transduction of Atm-deficient (ATM-KO) murine fibroblasts with the lentiviral vector expressing Atm, we could show the expression of ATM protein which phosphorylated its downstream substrates (pKap1 and p-p53).

Combining C220 or PRT543 with olaparib or chemotherapeutic agents such as cisplatin demonstrates a potent synergistic interaction in breast and ovarian cancer cells in vitro. Furthermore, PRT543 treatment significantly inhibits growth of Olaparib resistant tumors in vivo. These studies reveal a novel mechanism of PRMT5 inhibition and suggest beneficial combinatorial effects with other therapies, particularly in patients with tumors that are resistant to therapies dependent on DNA damage as their mechanism of action.

The data suggest that WC-A compounds exhibit anti-CRPC effects through the inhibition of TOP II activities, leading to mitochondrial stress-involved caspase activation and apoptosis. Moreover, WC-A13, WC-A14, and WC-A15 but not WC-A16 display inhibitory activities of Rad51-mediated DNA repair pathway which may increase apoptotic effect of CRPC cells.

The reported low TMB in CLL does not reflect the true frequency of neoantigens, as it fails to account for BCR neoantigens. These contribute ~80% of the neoantigen pool and are predominantly presented by HLA-II. The majority of BCR neoantigens in M-CLL are within the V region, whereas in U-CLL, BCR neoantigens are largely restricted to the V(D)J recombination site.
