  • overactivation of poly Adenosine phosphate Ribose polymerase 1 and molecular events in neuronal injury after deep hypothermic circulatory arrest study in a rabbit model
    The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2007
    Co-Authors: Yue Tang, Cun Long, Liangxin Tian, Zhengyi Feng, Jun Zheng
    Abstract:

    Objective Although deep hypothermic circulatory arrest has been known to induce neuronal injury, the molecular mechanism of this damage has not been identified. We studied the key molecular mediators through cellular energy failure, excitotoxicity, and overactivation of poly(Adenosine DiphosphateRibose) polymerase 1 in brain tissues of a rabbit model of deep hypothermic circulatory arrest similar to clinical settings. Methods We established 2 models of cardiopulmonary bypass (n = 15) and deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (n = 15) associated with cerebral microdialysis in rabbits. Deep hypothermic circulatory arrest lasted for 60 minutes. The measurements of glucose, lactate, pyruvate, and glutamate collected by means of microdialysis were quantified by using a microdialysis analyzer and high-performance liquid chromatography. The overactivation of poly(Adenosine DiphosphateRibose) polymerase 1 was assessed by detecting immunostaining of poly(Adenosine DiphosphateRibose). Histologic studies were used to identify neuronal morphologic changes and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase–mediated deoxyuridine triphosphate nick end-labeling staining and poly(Adenosine DiphosphateRibose) polymerase 1 Western blotting were used to identify apoptotic cells and early apoptotic signals. Results Deep hypothermic circulatory arrest significantly increased the lactate/pyruvate and lactate/glucose ratios and the glutamate value, whereas cardiopulmonary bypass did not ( P P P Conclusions This study demonstrated that deep hypothermic circulatory arrest results in an overactivation of poly(Adenosine DiphosphateRibose) polymerase 1, and that there were molecular events consisting of cellular energy failure, excitotoxicity, overactivation of poly(Adenosine DiphosphateRibose) polymerase 1, and necrosis and/or apoptosis in neuronal injury.

  • The status of poly(Adenosine Diphosphate-Ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors in ovarian cancer, part 2: extending the scope beyond olaparib and BRCA1/2 mutations.
    Clinical advances in hematology & oncology, 2016
    Co-Authors: Rowan E. Miller, Jonathan A. Ledermann
    Abstract:

    Poly(Adenosine Diphosphate-Ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors have shown clinical activity in epithelial ovarian cancer, leading both the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Medicines Agency to approve olaparib for tumors characterized by BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations. However, it is becoming increasingly evident that tumors that share molecular features with BRCA-mutant tumors-a concept known as BRCAness-also may exhibit defective homologous recombination DNA repair, and therefore will respond to PARP inhibition. A number of strategies have been proposed to identify BRCAness, including identifying defects in other genes that modulate homologous recombination and characterizing the mutational and transcriptional signatures of BRCAness. In addition to olaparib, a number of other PARP inhibitors are in clinical development. This article reviews the development of PARP inhibitors other than olaparib, and discusses the evidence for PARP inhibitors beyond BRCA1/2-mutant ovarian cancer.

  • The status of poly(Adenosine Diphosphate-Ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors in ovarian cancer, part 1: olaparib.
    Clinical advances in hematology & oncology, 2016
    Co-Authors: Rowan E. Miller, Jonathan A. Ledermann
    Abstract:

    Poly(Adenosine Diphosphate-Ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors have shown promising clinical activity in epithelial ovarian cancer. Following the observation in vitro that PARP inhibition is synthetically lethal in tumors with BRCA mutations, PARP inhibition has become the first genotype-directed therapy for BRCA1- and BRCA2-associated ovarian cancer. However, it is becoming clear that PARP inhibition also may have clinical utility in cancers associated with defects or aberrations in DNA repair that are unrelated to BRCA mutations. Deficient DNA repair mechanisms are present in approximately 30% to 50% of high-grade serous ovarian cancers, the most common histologic subtype. Olaparib is the best-studied PARP inhibitor to date, and a number of phase 3 trials with this agent are underway. This article reviews the development of olaparib for ovarian cancer and discusses the current evidence for its use, ongoing studies, future research directions, and the challenges ahead.
