    Abstract: Genotoxicity-induced hair loss from chemotherapy and radiotherapy is often encountered in cancer treatment, and there is a lack of effective treatment. In growing hair follicles (HF), quiescent stem cells (SC) are maintained in the bulge region, and hair bulbs at the base contain rapidly dividing, yet genotoxicity-sensitive transit-amplifying cells (TAC) that maintain hair growth. How genotoxicity-induced HF injury is repaired remains unclear. We report here that HFs mobilize ectopic progenitors from distinct TAC compartments for regeneration in adaptation to the severity of dystrophy induced by ionizing radiation (IR). Specifically, after low-dose IR, keratin 5+ basal hair bulb progenitors, rather than bulge SCs, were quickly activated to replenish matrix cells and regenerated all concentric layers of HFs, demonstrating their plasticity. After high-dose IR, when both matrix and hair bulb cells were depleted, the surviving outer root sheath cells rapidly acquired an SC-like state and fueled HF regeneration. Their progeny then homed back to SC niche and supported new cycles of HF growth. We also revealed that IR induced HF dystrophy and hair loss and suppressed WNT signaling in a p53- and dose-dependent manner. Augmenting WNT signaling attenuated the suppressive effect of p53 and enhanced ectopic progenitor proliferation after genotoxic injury, thereby preventing both IR- and cyclophosphamide-induced alopecia. Hence, targeted activation of TAC-derived progenitor cells, rather than quiescent bulge SCs, for anagen HF repair can be a potential approach to prevent hair loss from chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

    Abstract: Homologous recombination (HR) is an error-free repair pathway to eliminate DNA double-strand breaks and crucial for maintaining genome stability. Pathogenic mutations in genes involved in HR, such as BRCA1 and BRCA2, lead to homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) and sensitive cells to poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPi). As such, the selection of HRD cancer patients becomes an important clinical need. In addition to sequencing HR-related genes, recent studies have developed several approaches to detect HRD including genomic scar score, mutational signatures analysis, and RAD51 foci formation assay. However, these assays are not on a real-time basis and provide an indirect estimation of HR status. To overcome these limitations, we have successfully developed a virus-based functional assay to directly quantify HR activity in cells. Our method detects HR status in a real-time and tumor-only manner. By using this activity-based functional assay, we reveal a universal activity threshold for identifying HRD across cancer types. Here, we present a promising method to accurately detect primary ovarian cancer cells with HRD. Clinical samples that be quantified as HRD show a significant response to PARPi. Therefore, our method can serve as a functional biomarker and companion diagnostic for PARPi.

    Abstract: Polyamines are essential organic cations for cell growth, proliferation and tissue remodeling. The rate-limiting step in the biosynthesis of polyamines is catalyzed by ornithine decarboxylase (ODC). The activity of ODC and the level of intracellular polyamines significantly increase in many cancers, indicating the critical role of polyamines in tumorigenesis. Depletion of polyamines sensitizes cells to DNA damage agents that lead to DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs), suggesting that endogenous polyamines may participate in DNA repair process. However, the mechanistic role of polyamines in DSB repair remains largely unknown. Here, we wish to ascertain the role of polyamines in DSBs repair pathway and to delineate the underlying mechanism by combining biochemical analyses, cell-based and animal approaches. Our cell-based experiments demonstrated that polyamines indeed participate in DNA double-strand break repair. Specifically, the level of intracellular polyamines regulates homologous recombination (HR) repair pathway rather than non-homologous end joining (NHEJ). Furthermore, our in vitro reconstitution system and functional analyses demonstrated that polyamines significantly enhance RAD51-mediated DNA strand exchange reaction. Importantly, we reveal that the stimulatory effect of polyamines by RAD51 stems from the enhancement of duplex DNA captures in the DNA exchange reaction. Finally, the physiological role of polyamines in DSBs repair was examined by using mouse hair follicle as a model system. The animal model clearly highlights the significant contribution of polyamines to the DNA repair in vivo. Our findings thus furnish valuable insight into the mechanistic basis of polyamines in DNA repair.
