▼ Geneettisen testauksen kustannusten laskiessa, pullonkaulaksi saatavilla olevan tiedon hyödyntämiseen on muodostumassa tietämyksemme eri geneettisten variaatioiden ja mutaatioden merkityksestä. Jokaisella henkilöllä on satoja, yksilöllisiä variaatioita perimässään joiden vaikutuksia ei tunneta. Tilanteissa joissa perinöllisen sairauden syytä pyritään selvittämään geenitutkimuksen avulla nämä variaatiot pitää pystyä tunnistamaan joko merkityksettömiksi tai merkitysellisiksi taudin kannalta, jotta oikean diagnoosin tekeminen ja sopivien hoitometelmien valinta on mahdollista.
Rakennebiologia ja bioinformatiikka tarjoavat monia keinoja mutaatioiden vaikutusten tarkasteluun. Tässä tutkimuksessa käytetään esimerkkinä DNA polymeraasi gammaa (Pol γ), joka on ainoa tunnettu entsyymi joka replikoi ja ylläpitää mitokondrionaalista DNA:ta. Pol γ tarjoaa uniikin tutkimuskohteen pistemutaatioiden vaikutuksille sen kriittisen
toiminnalisuuden ja korvaavien mekanismien puuttumisen vuoksi. Pol γ:n tunnetun proteiinirakenteen, yli 700 hengen potilasaineiston ja mutaatioiden biokemiallisen karakterisoinnin avulla pystymme tuottamaan ennennäkemättömän tarkan kuvan mutaatioiden vaikutusmekanismeista ja ennustamaan sekä tunnettujen, että vielä tuntemattomien mutaatioiden vaikutusta taudin puhkeamiseen ja etenemiseen.
Tämän tutkimuksen osana olemme kehittäneet uuden algoritmin proteiinien kolmiulotteisten rakenteiden tutkimukseen ja analysointiin, nimeltään StructureMapper. StructureMapper on skaalautuva, suurien aineistojen analysoitiin suunniteltu algoritmi, joka tarjoaa mahdollisuuksia analysoida esimerkikisi ennustusalgoritmien tulosten luotettavuutta, kokeellisen datan laatua, ja sitä voidaan hyödyntää myös mutaatioiden haitallisuuden ennustamisessa ja tutkimuksessa. Kaikkia tämän tutkimuksen osana tuotetuista menetelmistä ja työkaluista voidaan hyödyntää yleiskäyttöisesti proteiinien tutkimuksessa.; Genetic testing is becoming more and more prevalent in the field of medicine. The bottleneck in making a diagnosis based on genetic information has shifted from being able to acquire the required information by sequencing the genome of a patient, to understanding the effects of the detected, unique variations in the DNA. Mutations in the DNA can affect proteins and their structure on many levels. In a clinical setting, being able to separate the benign mutations from the pathogenic is of utmost importance.
DNA polymerase gamma (Pol γ) offers an intriguing study subject in the world of structural biology. It is the sole enzyme responsible for replicating mitochondrial DNA. Defects in its functionality can manifest with a wide variety of symptoms that are often due to single point mutations that affect its structure in a deleterious way. Through analysis of the structure of Pol γ, combined with over 700 available patient case reports and biochemical characterization of some of the mutations, we have gained an unprecedented view to the reasons behind the mutations that lead to pathogenicity and altered biological functionality of…

▼ Mitokondrio on solun energiaa tuottava organelli, jolla on oma genomi, mitokondriaalinen DNA (mtDNA). Mitokondrion DNA:ta monistaa yksi ainoa polymeraasi, polymeraasi gamma (POLG). Kirjallisuudessa on kuvattu jo noin 50 POLG mutaatiota eli geenivirhettä, ja jo pitkään niiden on uskottu olevan yhteydessä paitsi moniin hermosto- ja lihasrappeuma sairauksiin, myös vanhenemiseen liittyvien oireiden syntyyn.
Tämän tutkimuksen ensimmäisessä osassa analysoitiin POLG:ssä olevan CAG-toistoalueen pituusvaihteluja eri väestöryhmissä, yleisimmissä mitokondriaalisissa sairauksissa ja lapsettomilla miehillä. Kaikissa tutkituissa väestöryhmissä toistoalueen pituus oli hyvin vakaa, yleisimmän alleelin sisältäessä 10 CAG-jaksoa. Myös kaikilla kädellisten ryhmillä on oma lajityypillinen, yleinen CAG-pituutensa, joka pitenee tultaessa pienistä apinoista simpanssin kautta gorillaan ja ihmiseen.
Toistojakson pituus ei tavallisimmissa mitokondriaalisissa sairauksissa poikennut kontrolliväestöstä. Sen sijaan havaittiin, että noin 10%:lla lapsettomista miehistä puuttuu tämä ns. yleinen alleeli, kun taas tunnetusti fertiileillä miehillä se ei puuttunut yhdeltäkään. Näillä miehillä oli alentunut siittiöiden määrä, liikkuvuus oli huonontunut ja myös rakenteessa oli normaalia enemmän virheitä. Lapsettomilla miehillä havaittiin myös useita muita POLG mutaatioita, sekä kohonnut mtDNA:n mutaatioiden määrä. Muiden ryhmien tekemissä tutkimuksissa on havaittu, että näitä pariskuntia voidaan auttaa saamaan lapsi ICSI-tekniikalla, jossa siittiö viedään neulalla munasolun sisään. POLG toistoalueen pituutta kannattaisikin käyttää yhtenä kriteerinä hoitokeinoja mietittäessä niissä tapauksissa, joissa mitään muuta syytä lapsettomuuteen ei tiedetä.
Tutkimuksen toinen osa keskittyi mtDNA:n mutaatioiden osuuteen vanhenemisessa. Vanhoilla ihmisillä on havaittu olevan enemmän mtDNA mutaatioita kuin nuorilla. Tämän uskotaan johtavan lisääntyneeseen happiradikaalien muodostumiseen solussa ja edelleen lisäävän mtDNA:n mutaatioiden määrää. Teoriaa testattiin Tukholmassa tehdyllä koemallilla, jossa POLG-entsyymissä oleva mtDNA:n korjausaktiivisuus turmeltiin mutaatiolla, ja tämä vioitettu "mutaattori" geeni vietiin hiireen. Mutaattorihiiret syntyivät normaaleina, mutta alkoivat jo puolen vuoden iässä vanheta näkyvästi. Niillä oli mm. osteoporoosia, kyttyräselkä, hiustenlähtöä, anemiaa, selkeää painonpudotusta, sydänsairauden ja hermoston rappeutumisen merkkejä. Sekä koirailla että naarailla oli enneaikaista hedelmättömyyttä. Tampereella tehdyissä geneettisissä analyyseissä todettiin, että hiirten kaikkiin kudoksiin kertyi moninkertaisesti enemmän mtDNA:n mutaatioita kuin samanikäisiin verrokkihiiriin. Tämä ilmeni soluhengityksen vajavaisuutena ja vähentyneenä energiantuottona kudoksissa. Hiirillä ei kuitenkaan ilmennyt selkeästi lisääntynyttä happiradikaalien tuotantoa. Hiirten keskimääräinen elinikä oli lyhentynyt, noin 48 viikkoa, kun se vastaavilla verrokkeilla oli noin 2,5 vuotta.
Mutaattorihiiri mallina osoittaa, että suuri mtDNA:n mutaatioiden määrä johtaa…

▼ Bleomycin is an anti-tumour agent that is clinically used to treat several types of cancers. Bleomycin cleaves
DNA at specific
DNA sequences and recent genome-wide
DNA sequencing specificity data indicated that the sequence 5'-RTGT*AY (where T* is the site of bleomycin cleavage, R is G/A and Y is T/C) is preferentially cleaved by bleomycin in human cells. Based on this
DNA sequence, a plasmid clone was constructed to explore this bleomycin cleavage preference. By systematic variation of single nucleotides in the 5'-RTGT*AY sequence, this study was able to investigate the effect of nucleotide changes on bleomycin cleavage efficiency. It was observed that the preferred consensus
DNA sequence for bleomycin cleavage in the plasmid clone was 5'-YYGT*AW (where W is A/T). The most highly cleaved sequence was 5'-TCGT*AT and the seven most highly cleaved sequences conformed to the consensus sequence 5'-YYGT*AW. A comparison with genome-wide results was also performed and while the core sequence was similar in both environments, the surrounding nucleotides were different.This study also examined the
DNA sequence specificity of
gamma radiation-induced
DNA damage in purified
DNA sequences. A comparison between the radiation-induced damage plasmid
DNA and genome-wide human
DNA data was studied.
DNA was fluorescently end-labelled and
gamma radiation-induced
DNA cleavage was examined using capillary electrophoresis with laser-induced fluorescence detection. Previously, ionising radiation-induced
DNA damage to end-labelled
DNA has been reported to be non-sequence specific; however, this study provides an evidence that
gamma radiation-induced
DNA damage is sequence specific. The degree of cleavage was quantified at each nucleotide and it was observed that preferential cleavage occurred at cytosine nucleotides with lesser cleavage at guanine nucleotides, while being very low at thymine nucleotides. The differences in percentage cleavage at individual nucleotides ranged up to six-fold. The
DNA sequences surrounding the most intense IR-induced
DNA cleavage sites were examined and a consensus sequence 5'-AGGC*C (where C* is the cleavage site) was found. The highest intensity
gamma radiation-induced
DNA cleavage sites were found at the dinucleotides, 5'-GG*, 5'-GC, 5'-C*C and 5'-G*G, and at the trinucleotides, 5'-GG*C, 5'-TC*A 5'-GG*G 5'-GC*C. These observations have implications for our understanding of ionising radiation-induced
DNA damage.

▼ The p73 gene possesses an extrinsic P1 promoter and an intrinsic P2 promoter, resulting in synthesis of the full-length TAp73 and the N-terminal-truncated ΔNp73 isoforms, respectively. The ultimate effect of p73 in oncogenesis is thought to depend on the apoptotic TAp73 to the antiapoptotic ΔNp73 isoforms’ ratio. The selective activation of p73 promoters could trigger the expression of either the apoptotic or the antiapoptotic p73 isoforms, thus shifting the ΔN/ΤΑ ratio towards an oncogenic or an oncosuppression direction. Therefore, the epigenetic and transcription factors that differentially activate P1 and P2 promoters are crucial deterninants of the role of p73 in cancer, since they can alter the ΔN/ΤΑ ratio. This study was aimed at identifying novel epigenetic and transcription factors that affect both TAp73 and ΔNp73 isoform synthesis in the context of lung cancer, where both TAp73 and ΔNp73 isoforms have been previously found overexpressed. First, we investigated the DNA methylation status of both promoters as a means of epigenetic transcriptional control of their corresponding isoforms in 102 primary non-small cell lung carcinomas (NSCLCs). We demonstrated that while P1 hypermethylation-associated reduction of TAp73 mRNA levels is rare, the P2 hypomethylation-associated overexpression of ΔNp73 mRNA is a frequent event, particularly among squamous cell carcinomas. P1 promoter remained essentially unmethylated in the majority of lung cancer carcinomas. On the other hand, P2 hypomethylation strongly correlated with the hypomethylation of LINE-1 transposon, a marker of global DNA hypomethylation, indicating that ΔNp73 overexpression may be a passive consequence of global DNA hypomethylation. Since overexpression of TAp73 isoforms could not be attributed to change in the methylation status of P1 promoter, we plausibly hypothesized that it could potentially be caused by deregulated activity of specific transcription factor(s) . In the light of this notion, we then searched for novel transcription factors that could activate P1 promoter and result to TAp73 overexpression in lung cancer. With the use of bioinformatics tools, in vitro binding assays, and chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis, a region extending -233 to -204 bps upstream of the transcription start site of the human p73 P1 promoter, containing conserved Sp1 binding sites, was characterized. Treatment of cells with Sp1 RNAi and Sp1 inhibitor functionally suppresses TAp73 expression, indicating positive regulation of P1 by the Sp1 protein. Notably Sp1 inhibition or silencing also reduces ΔΝp73 protein levels. Therefore, Sp1 directly regulates TAp73 transcription and affects ΔΝp73 levels in lung cancer. TAp73γ was shown to be the only TA isoform overexpressed in several lung cancer cell lines and in 26 non-small cell lung cancers, consistent with Sp1 overexpression, thereby questioning the apoptotic role of this specific p73 isoform in lung cancer.

▼ Le virus d’Epstein-Barr (EBV) est un Herpesvirus humain appartenant à la sous-famille des γ-Herpesvirinae. L’expression des gènes d’EBV est régulée très finement, de manière séquentielle et débute par l’expression des gènes immédiats précoces dont les produits contrôlent l’expression des gènes précoces. Les produits de ces derniers permettent la réplication de l’ADN viral et la synthèse des gènes tardifs. Les mécanismes contrôlant l’expression des gènes immédiats précoces et précoces sont assez bien compris, à contrario de ceux qui contrôlent l’expression des gènes tardifs. En effet, il est connu que ces derniers ne sont exprimés qu’après réplication de l’ADN viral. Par ailleurs, les promoteurs des gènes tardifs présentent une structure différente des promoteurs de gènes immédiats précoces, précoces ou des gènes cellulaires. Ils sont essentiellement caractérisés par la présence d’une boîte TATT à la place de la TATA-box canonique. EBV a la particularité de coder pour une TBP-like, la protéine BcRF1 qui est essentielle mais pas suffisante pour l’expression des gènes viraux tardifs et qui se fixe spécifiquement sur la séquence TATT des promoteurs viraux tardifs. Notre objectif était principalement d’identifier l’ensemble des protéines virales nécessaires à l’expression des gènes tardifs d’EBV. Nous avons ainsi démontré qu’en plus de la protéine BcRF1, EBV code pour cinq autres protéines nécessaires à l’expression des gènes viraux tardifs : BFRF2, BGLF3, BVLF1, BDLF4 et BDLF3.5. Ces six protéines virales forment un complexe qui permet le recrutement de l’ARN polymérase II sur les promoteurs des gènes viraux tardifs. Nous avons nommé ce complexe vPIC (viral Pre-Initiation Complex), par analogie avec le complexe d’initiation de la transcription cellulaire formé autour de la TATA-Binding Protein (TBP). Le vPIC est conservé chez les herpesvirus des sous familles β et γ, mais est absent chez les herpesvirus de la sous famille des α. Par ailleurs, nos résultats suggèrent que le complexe vPIC interagit avec le complexe de réplication viral ce qui peut expliquer la liaison entre réplication de l’ADN viral et transcription des gènes viraux tardifs. Ces résultats permettent ainsi de mieux comprendre les mécanismes de régulation de l’expression des gènes tardifs d’EBV et serviront de base pour la recherche de nouveaux antiviraux.
The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a human Herpersvirus belonging to the subfamily of γ-Herpesvirinae. EBV genes expression is tightly regulated, in a sequential manner and begins with the expression of immediate early genes whose products control the expression of early genes. Products of these allow the viral DNA synthesis and late genes expression. Mechanisms controlling immediate early and early genes expression are well documented, in contrast to those controlling late genes expression. Indeed, it is known that late genes are expressed after viral DNA replication. Furthermore, late genes promoters have a different structure of those of immediate early, early and cellular genes.

▼ Primary Sjögren’s syndrome (SS) is a relatively common autoimmune disorder that is primarily characterized by chronic lymphoepithelial inflammation in the exocrine glands, mainly the salivary and lachrymal glands, leading to dryness. SS may extend from disease confined to the exocrine glands (organ-specific exocrinopathy) to various extraglandular manifestations (systemic disease) and the development of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (usually of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue type; MALT-NHL) in 5% of patients. Approximately one-third of patients manifest clinico-laboratory features that represent high-risk prognostic factors for lymphoma development (type-I disease; as opposed to type-II disease, i.e. without adverse prognostic factors). Although the aetiopathogenesis of the disease remains unclear, evidence indicates the contribution of both innate and adaptive immunity in inflammatory reactions. In this PhD dissertation, we sought to investigate the innate immune responses elicited by tissue injury in SS patients.Apoptosis represents a major mechanism of programmed cell death that is essential for the regulation of tissue growth and homeostasis. Normally, cells dying by apoptosis undergo specific changes that target them for rapid clearance by professional phagocytes, such as macrophages. Typically, this process leads to the active production of anti-inflammatory mediators by phagocytes and thus facilitates the “immunologically silent” removal of apoptotic cells. The prompt elimination of apoptotic cells (also termed “efferocytosis”) is a very crucial biological process, since lingering apoptotic cells eventually proceed to the state of “late apoptosis” or “secondary necrosis” wherein they may contribute to inflammatory reactions via the release of immunogenic intracellular components, including modified autoantigens and “danger signals”. In fact, apoptosis and efferocytosis act in concert to regulate various processes, such as embryogenesis, tissue homeostasis, tolerance the elimination of damaged cells, and the resolution of inflammation.The occurrence of defective efferocytosis in certain inflammatory diseases is thought to have pathogenetic significance, based on the pro-inflammatory potential of secondary necrotic cells. Among them, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is regarded as the archetypical disease model where the impaired clearance of apoptotic cells by macrophages represents a possible mechanism for the development of chronic autoimmune reactions and organ damage. Given the similarities (serological, immunogenetical and clinical) between SLE and SS, the important role of apoptosis in the pathogenesis of SS and the involvement of macrophages in the development of lymphoepithelial lesions of SS, the aim of current thesis was the investigation of the ability of SS patients’ macrophages for phagocytosis of apoptotic cells and of necrotic material. Compared to healthy blood donors (HBD), approximately half of SS and SLE patients studied (but not RA) were found to manifest significantly reduced phagocytosis of…

▼ Plants have two organelles outside the nucleus which carry their own DNA, mitochondria and chloroplasts. These organelles are descendants of bacteria that were engulfed by their host according to the endosymbiotic theory. Over time, DNA has been exchanged between these organelles and the nucleus. Two polymerases, DNA Polymerases Gamma I and II, are encoded in the nucleus and remain under nuclear control, but are transported into the mitochondria and chloroplasts. DNA polymerases gamma I and II are two organelle polymerases which have been studied through sequence analysis and shown to localize to both mitochondria and chloroplasts. Little has been done to characterize the activities of these polymerases. Work in tobacco showed the homology of these polymerases to each other and to DNA Polymerase I in bacteria. They have been characterized as being part of the DNA Polymerase A family of polymerases. In my research I have studied the effect of T-DNA insertions within the DNA Polymerase Gamma I and II genes. Since these DNA Polymerases are targeted to the mitochondria and chloroplasts, I studied the effect of knocking out these genes. A plant heterozygous for an insert in DNA Polymerase Gamma I grows slightly slower than wild type plants with an approximately 20% reduction in mitochondrial and chloroplast DNA copy number. A plant homozygous for an insert in this same gene has a drastic phenotype with stunted plants that grow to around 1 inch tall, with floral stems, and have an approximately 50-55% reduction in mitochondrial and chloroplast DNA copy number. Wild type plants can grow to a height of 12-18 inches with floral stems as a comparison. A plant heterozygous for an insert in the DNA Polymerase Gamma II gene grows slightly slower than wild type plants and has an approximately 15% reduction in mitochondrial DNA copy number and a 50% reduction in chloroplast DNA copy number. These plants also produce much less seed than do other mutants and wild type plants.

▼ Temozolomide (TMZ; an alkylating agent that is able to
cross the blood brain barrier) is used for the treatment of
malignant gliomas, but much less is known about its effects in
breast cancer. Brain tumors are more a result of other organ tumors
metastasizing to the brain rather than tumors originating in the
brain itself. 15% of brain neoplasms are a result of breast cancer
metastases. Breast cancer that has metastasized to the brain
becomes particularly difficult to treat as the regular breast
cancer drugs do not cross the blood brain barrier. TMZ, with its
different mechanism of action and ability to cross the blood brain
barrier has long been viewed as a potentially useful
chemotherapeutic agent for treating cancers other than brain
malignancies. Its untapped potential as a chemotherapeutic agent
for other cancers led to the development of its novel conjugate
with Perillyl alcohol (POH) via a carbamate bond. POH is used to
treat malignant gliomas via intranasal delivery. The interest for
using the conjugate on breast cancers was because of two main
factors, the first being that metastasis to the brain was a major
problem of patients with breast cancer and the second being that
there is targeted therapy for hormone receptor and her-2
over-expressing breast cancer whereas there is no targeted therapy
as such for triple negative breast cancers (TNBC; negative for
estrogen and progesterone receptors, and lacking overexpressed
Her2/neu). Triple-negative breast cancer represents a particularly
difficult to treat subtype of breast cancer that results in more
aggressive tumors and bad prognosis. We compared TMZ side by side
to TMZ-POH or T-P. Colony formation assays and Western blots were
used to determine the
DNA damaging and cytotoxic potency of the two
drugs in a number of breast carcinoma cell lines. Our results show
that both drugs are effective in causing
DNA damage and cell death,
but that T-P is significantly more potent than TMZ. Intriguingly,
overexpression of the
DNA damage repair protein MGMT confers
resistance against TMZ as well as against T-P. Introduction of the
MGMT gene into sensitive cells makes them resistant to both drugs;
conversely inhibition of MGMT renders resistant cells sensitive.
Neither does the Fatty Acid Transporter Protein (FATP) have a role
to play in the uptake of TMZ-POH nor does the p-glycoprotein play a
role in making cells less sensitive to the drug. Taken together,
our results indicate that TMZ, and even more so its novel analog
T-P, might hold promise for the treatment of intracranial breast
cancer metastases, but that MGMT status of the tumor would have to
be verified before the onset of therapy.

▼ CD4+ T cells developing toward a Th2 fate express IL-4, IL-5, and IL-13 while inhibiting production of cytokines associated with other Th types, such as the Th1 cytokine IFN-γ. IL-4–producing Th2 effector cells give rise to a long-lived memory population committed to reactivation of the Th2 cytokine gene expression program. However, reactivation of these effector-derived cells under Th1-skewing conditions leads to cells producing both IFN-γ and IL-4. We now show that this flexibility of cytokine expression is preceded by a loss of the repressive
DNA methylation of the Ifng promoter acquired during Th2 polarization. We also demonstrate that flexible expression of Ifng requires the transcription factor STAT4, along with T-bet. Surprisingly, loss of either STAT4 or T-bet increased Ifng promoter CpG methylation in both effector and memory Th2 cells. Taken together, our data suggest a model in which the expression of IFN-γ by Th2-derived memory cells involves attenuation of epigenetic repression in memory Th2 cells, combined with Th1-polarizing signals after their recall activation.

▼ Plant mitochondrial genomes are large and complex, and the mechanisms for maintaining mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) remain unclear. Arabidopsis thaliana has two DNA polymerase genes, polIA and polIB, that have been shown to be dual localized to mitochondria and chloroplasts but are unequally expressed within primary plant tissues involved in cell division or cell expansion. PolIB expression is observed at higher levels in both shoot and root apexes, suggesting a possible role in organelle DNA replication in rapidly dividing or expanding cells. It is proposed that both polIA and polIB are required for mtDNA replication under wild type conditions. An Arabidopsis T-DNA polIB mutant has a 30% reduction in mtDNA levels but also a 70% induction in polIA gene expression. The polIB mutant shows an increase relative to wild type plants in the number of mitochondria that are significantly smaller in relative size, observed within hypocotyl epidermis cells that have a reduced rate of cell expansion. These mutants exhibit a significant increase in gene expression for components of mitorespiration and photosynthesis, and there is evidence for an increase in both light to dark (transitional) and light respiration levels. There is not a significant difference in dark adjusted total respiration between mutant and wild type plants. Chloroplast numbers are not significantly different in isolated mesophyll protoplasts, but mesophyll cells from the mutant are significantly smaller than wild type. PolIB mutants exhibit a three-day delay in chloroplast development but after 7dpi (days post-imbibition) there is no difference in relative plastid DNA levels between the mutant and wild type. Overall, the polIB mutant exhibits an adjustment in cell homeostasis, which enables the maintenance of functional mitochondria but at the cost of normal cell expansion rates.

▼ DNA polymerase gamma (pol g in human, Mip1 in yeast) is the unique DNA replicase found in mitochondria. Pol g plays a key role in fidelity of mtDNA replication through accurate selection of nucleotides and 3’-5’ exonuclease proofreading activity. Defective maintenance of mtDNA leads to mitochondrial dysfunction and disease. More than 150 POLG mutations have been identified in human.
Based on the good conservation of the pol g catalytic subunits we have used Mip1 as a model enzyme to generate yeast mutations equivalent to seven human pol g mutations associated with PEO, various neuropathies and Alpers syndrome. Five mutations clustered in a novel subdomain of the 3’-5’ exonuclease are localized in the DNA-binding channel.
We have determined the in vivo phenotypes of the yeast mutants and biochemical properties of mutant polymerases. The mip1 mutations increase the frequency of mtDNA point mutations and deletions with generally a good correlation between mtDNA instability in yeast and disease severity in human. Mutations clustered in the novel module result in increased frequency of point mutations and high instability of the mitochondrial DNA in yeast cells, and unexpectedly for mutator mutations, they favour exonucleolysis versus polymerization. This trait is associated with highly decreased DNA binding activity and poorly processive DNA synthesis. Our data show for the first time that a 3’-5’ exonuclease module of DNA polymerase gamma plays a crucial role in the coordination of the polymerase and exonuclease functions and they strongly suggest that in patients the disease is not caused by defective proofreading but results from poor mtDNA replication generated by a severe imbalance between DNA synthesis and degradation.

DNA binding protein (mtSSB), and a hexameric mtDNA helicase. In this work, we employed quantitative pre-steady state kinetic techniques to establish the mechanisms responsible for the replication of the human mitochondrial
DNA by Pol γ and explored the effects of point mutations that are observed in heritable diseases. With our biochemical characterization of mutants of Pol γ, we have shown unique characteristics that would lead to profound physiological consequences over time. Additionally, we have made significant progress towards reconstitution of the mitochondrial
DNA replisome by monitoring
DNA polymerization that is dependent on helicase unwinding of double stranded
DNA. Overall, this work provides a better understanding of the mechanism of mtDNA replication and has important implications toward understanding the role of mitochondrial
DNA replication in mitochondrial disease, ageing and cancer. In addition to the work on the mtDNA replisome, we have applied pre-steady state kinetic techniques to better understand the mechanism of RNA-dependent
DNA polymerization by HIV reverse transcriptase (HIV-RT). This enzyme is responsible for the replication of the viral genome in HIV and is a common target for anti-HIV drugs. We have characterized the role of enzyme conformational changes in the kinetics of incorporation of correct nucleotide and the Nucleotide Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitor (NRTI) AZT by wild-type enzyme, as well as a mutant with clinical resistance to AZT. This work provides a better understanding of the complete mechanism of RNA-dependent
DNA polymerization, the changes in the mechanism in the presence of inhibitor and the development of resistance to this nucleoside analog; and thereby this work contributes to the long-term goal of designing more effective drugs that can possibly deter resistance and be used successfully for treatment of HIV.

▼ When groups of neurons are synchronously and
rhythmically active, they give rise to electrical oscillations that
can be seen in the surrounding extracellular local field potential
(LFP) and in scalp electroencephalography (EEG) recordings. The
frequencies of these oscillations range from slow (0.3-4 Hz) delta
oscillations during sleep to very fast (300 Hz) ripple oscillations
during epileptic seizures. The appearance of intermediate
gamma
frequency oscillations (40-80 Hz) is associated with active sensory
processing, increased attention and improved reaction times.
Gamma
rhythms are often altered in patients diagnosed with schizophrenia,
bipolar disorder, depression, ADHD, tinnitus and epilepsy,
suggesting that a deeper understanding of the
gamma signal may help
to elucidate the differences between normal and pathological neural
circuits.Using tetrode recordings from the hippocampus and
neocortex of freely behaving rats, this thesis examines both the
behavioral and mechanistic underpinnings of
gamma oscillations. We
show that increased running speed is accompanied by large,
systematic increases in the frequency of hippocampal CA1 network
oscillations spanning the entire
gamma range and beyond. These
speed-dependent changes are seen on both linear tracks and
two-dimensional platforms, and are thus independent of spatial
environment. We hypothesize that the faster
gamma oscillations may
be indicative of faster reaction times and improved perception at
faster running speeds.Individual
gamma cycles are less than 20 ms
in duration and show large, cycle-by-cycle changes in amplitude and
frequency. We also show that these rapid LFP changes are
accompanied by instantaneous, cycle-by-cycle changes in
spike-timing precision of cells in the neocortex. The slope of an
individual LFP
gamma cycle encodes the amount of spike synchrony
during that
gamma cycle, but provides no information about
synchrony in the very next cycle. These changes in spike synchrony
are preceded by corresponding changes in spike rate in the previous
gamma cycle. Thus, local cortical circuits transform asynchronous
increases in spike rate into fewer, but more synchronous spikes
within a single
gamma cycle. This sequence can be reliably
predicted by the slope of individual
gamma cycles, with important
implications for the design of brain-machine
interfaces.

▼ Friedreich ataxia (FRDA) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease with primary sites of pathology in the large sensory neurons of the dorsal root ganglia (DRG) and dentate nucleus of the cerebellum. FRDA is also often accompanied by severe cardiomyopathy and diabetes mellitus. FRDA is caused by loss of frataxin (FXN) expression, which is due to GAA repeat expansion in intron 1 of the FXN gene. Frataxin is a mitochondrial protein important in iron-sulphur cluster (ISC) biogenesis and in the electron transport chain (ETC). As a consequence of impaired mitochondrial energy metabolism, FRDA cells show increased levels of and sensitivity to oxidative stress, which is known to be associated with genome instability. In this study, we investigated DNA damage/repair in relation to FXN expression via immunostaining of γ-H2AX, a nuclear protein that is recruited to DNA double strand breaks (DSBs). We found FRDA patient and YG8sR FRDA mouse model fibroblasts to have inherently elevated DNA DSBs (1.8 and 0.9 foci/nucleus) compared to normal fibroblasts (0.6 and 0.2 foci/nucleus, in each case P < 0.001). By delivering the FXN gene to these cells with a lentivirus vector (LV) at a copy number of ~1/cell, FXN mRNA levels reached 48 fold (patient cells) and 42 fold (YG8sR cells) and protein levels reached 20 fold (patient cells) and 3.5 fold (YG8sR cells) that of untreated fibroblasts, without observable cytotoxicity. This resulted in a reduction in DNA DSB foci to 0.7 and 0.43 (in each case P < 0.001) in human and YG8sR fibroblasts, respectively and an increase in cell survival to that found for normal fibroblasts. We next irradiated the FRDA fibroblasts (2Gy) and measured their DSB repair profiles. Both human and mouse FRDA fibroblasts were unable to repair damaged DNA. However, repair returned to near normal levels following LV FXN gene transfer. Our data suggest frataxin may be important for genome stability and cell survival by ensuring ISC for DNA damage repair enzymes or may be required directly for DNA DSB repair.

▼ Nous avons identifié une nouvelle forme de phospho-S27-S33-Ku70 constitutivement surexprimée dans des cellules issues de la leucémie lymphocytaire chronique résistante à la chimiothérapie basée sur des agents alkylants de l’ADN et/ou analogues nucléotidiques. La protéine Ku70 est une protéine essentielle du maintien de la stabilité génomique par son rôle dans la réparation non-homologue (système NHEJ) des cassures double brin de l’ADN (CDB) et par sa fonction télomérique. Le laboratoire d’accueil a déjà démontré, in vitro et in vivo, dans les cellules LLC résistantes une altération de la réparation par le système NHEJ et un dysfonctionnement télomérique. Le travail de thèse a porté sur la caractérisation fonctionnelle de cette nouvelle forme phospho-S27-S33-Ku70. Pour ceci, nous avons utilisé des vecteurs d’expression permettant simultanément d’inhiber l’expression du Ku70 endogène (shRNA) et d’exprimer de façon épisomale différentes formes de Ku70 exogène. Ainsi, nous avons démontré : i) une stricte colocalisation de pS27-pS33-Ku70 avec les foyers γ-H2AX; ii) des cassures double brin (DSB) induisent la phosphorylation de S27-S33-Ku70 sous forme hétérodimère avec Ku80. Cette phosphorylation a lieu quelques minutes après le stress génotoxique et implique l'activité et l'interaction physique avec pS2056-DNA-PKcs, reliant ainsi pS27-pS33-Ku70 au système NHEJ ; iii) les cellules exprimant la forme sauvage exogène S27-S33-Ku70 ou la forme phosphomimétique E27-E33-Ku70 présentent une cinétique de réparation de l’ADN plus rapide que celle des cellules exprimant la forme mutée A27-A33-Ku70. Cependant, iv) la forme sauvage de Ku70 contribue à un niveau plus élevé d'aberrations structurales chromosomiques après la première division cellulaire suite à un stress génotoxique indiquant une infidélité lors de la réparation des dommages de l’ADN. En outre, les cellules exprimant A27-A33-Ku70 possèdent un index cellulaire plus élevé qui est corrélé avec une activation de la voie β-caténine. En adéquation avec sa surexpression dans la forme résistante de la LLC, l’ensemble de ces résultats suggère un rôle oncogénique de la forme phosphorylée de Ku70. Nous avons ensuite testé l’effet des nanodiamants hydrogénés (ND-H) dans des lignées exprimant différentes formes de Ku70. Grâce à leurs propriétés physico-chimiques les ND-H sont capables de potentialiser sous irradiation la production intracellulaire des espèces réactives de l’oxygène (ROS) et ainsi augmenter le taux des cassures (simple et double brin de l’ADN) et solliciter d’avantage le système de réparation de l’ADN. Nous observons que indépendamment de la forme exprimée de Ku70, ce double traitement induisait la sénescence cellulaire ; une découverte d’un intérêt à la fois fondamental (compréhension des voies apoptotiques vs senescence) et d’utilité pharmacologique potentielle.
We have identified a new form of phospho-S27-S33-Ku70 constitutively overexpressed in a subset of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) B cells resistant to apoptosis induced by DNA double strand breaks…

▼ Ce mémoire de thèse est consacré à une étude du fluage isotherme et anisotherme à diversniveaux de température et à l’analyse fine des évolutions microstructurales associées à diverschargements thermomécaniques imposés du superalliage monocristallin, CMSX-4®. Cetravail est complété par la validation d’un modèle de comportement mécanique permettantd’intégrer ces évolutions microstructurales (fraction volumique des phases en présence,largeur des couloirs de matrice gamma, ...) pour déterminer la durée de vie du matériau.Parallèlement, le rôle de la microstructure initiale du matériau associée aux traitementsthermiques imposés dans la phase d’élaboration a été étudié. Il a été montré un effet marquéde cette microstructure initiale lors des essais de fluage à basse température (< 900°C), ainsique lors des essais de fluage anisotherme. Une microstructure de précipitation en radeaux detype N a été montrée comme particulièrement néfaste pour la résistance en fluageanisotherme. Enfin, le comportement du CMSX-4® est systématiquement comparé à celuiprécédemment établi dans des conditions similaires sur d’autres superalliages monocristallinspour pales haute pression.
This thesis is dedicated to the study of the isothermal and non-isothermal creep behavior in awide temperature range, and to the analysis of the microstructural evolution during differentthermomechanical paths on the superalloy single crystal, CMSX-4®. Moreover, the validationof a mechanical behavior model validation completes this work. This model takes intoaccount the microstructural evolutions (e.g. phase volume fraction, gamma-matrix channelwidth…) to predict the creep life. Additionally, the effect of the initial microstructure fromthe heat treatment has been investigated. It has been shown a strong impact of the as-receivedmicrostructure on the low temperature isothermal creep properties, and during non-isothermalcreep. A N-type rafted microstructure has been shown to be particularly detrimental to thenon-isothermal creep properties. Finally, the behavior of the CMSX-4® has been comparedwith the previous studies realized in the same conditions on other single crystal superalloysfor blades applications.

▼ Afin de sonder la persistance de la fermeture de couches à N=50 pour les isotopes de nickel, une expérience a été réalisée au RIBF (RIKEN, Japon) pour produire des noyaux autour du ⁷⁸Ni par fission en vol d'un faisceau de ²³⁸U. Les spectromètres BigRIPS et ZeroDegree ont été utilisés pour la purification et la sélection des noyaux d'intérêt. La décroissance de ces noyaux a été observée avec le dispositif EURICA pour la détection des rayonnements gamma, couplé avec le détecteur à particules chargées WAS3aBi.L'analyse des corrélations entre l'implantation des ions ⁷⁹′⁸⁰Cu et leur décroissance, ainsi que les spectres de décroissance gamma en simple et double coïncidence, nous ont permis de proposer un schéma de niveaux excités pour le ⁷⁹Zn, avec assignation de spin et parité pour la plupart des états. Nous avons aussi mis une contrainte entre 3hbar et 5hbar sur la valeur du spin de l'état fondamental du ⁸⁰Cu. La comparaison avec un modèle schématique de couplage cœur-particule nous a permis d’interpréter le schéma de niveau et de proposer des hypothèses sur la nature des états observés. Les énergies des états de particule individuelle extraites du calcul théorique indiquent la persistance du gap N=50 à Z=28.
In order to investigate the persistence of the N=50 gap for the Nickel isotopes, an experiment has been performed at RIBF (RIKEN, Japan) to produce exotic nuclei around ⁷⁸Ni by in-flight fission of a ²³⁸U beam. The BigRIPS and ZeroDegree spectrometers were used to purify and select the nuclei of interest. Their decay was detected with the EURICA detector for γ-ray detection, coupled with the charged particle WAS3aBi detector. The analysis of the correlations between the ion implantation and their decay, as well as the γ decay spectra in simple and double coincidence allowed us to propose a level scheme of the excited states for the ⁷⁹Zn, and we assigned the spin and parity for most of the states. We also constrained the spin value for the fundamental state of the ⁸⁰Cu, between 3hbar and 5hbar. Comparison with a core-particle coupling model allowed us to interpret the level scheme and propose hypothesis about the nature of the observed states. The single particle state energies extracted from the theoretical calculation indicate the persistence of the N=50 gap at Z=28.

gamma-H2A.X), conduisant à la formation de foyers radio-induits. La réparation des CDB, et donc la disparition de ces foyers, a lieu dans les heures suivant l’exposition. Toutefois, une certaine proportion de ces foyers
gamma-H2A.X persiste 24 heures après l’irradiation. La nature et le rôle de ces foyers persistants sont encore peu clairs. L’objectif de ce travail est d'explorer les caractéristiques de ces foyers persistants et leurs conséquences sur le devenir des cellules. Pour étudier la dynamique des foyers radio-induits, nous avons exposé des HUVEC synchronisées en phase G0/G1 à des doses de 1 et 5 Gy de rayons X. Les foyers radio-induits ont été étudiés à partir de 10 minutes et jusqu'à 7 jours après l'exposition par l’analyse de
gamma-H2A.X et de l’association temporelle de la protéine 53BP1 et des CN-PML (corps nucléaires PML). L’impact des foyers persistants sur la prolifération cellulaire a également été exploré. Nous avons analysé en microscopie à fluorescence une moyenne de 4 000 cellules pour chaque condition à l'aide d'une analyse d’image permettant la détection automatique des noyaux et des foyers. L'analyse d'un grand nombre d‘évènements nous a permis de discriminer des sous-populations de cellules ou de foyers sur la base de différentes caractéristiques, telles que leur aire ou la phase du cycle cellulaire, et de mesurer leur représentativité dans l'ensemble de la population de cellules exposées. Ainsi, nous avons déterminé que les foyers
gamma-H2A.X persistant ont une aire supérieure à 0,72 ± 0,11 µm² et qu’ils sont toujours colocalisés avec 53BP1. Plus de 70% des cellules exposées à 5 Gy ont au moins un foyer persistant 24 heures après l'exposition. De plus, ces foyers persistants sont observables au moins jusqu'à 7 jours après l’irradiation. Une association spatiale significative entre les CN-PML et les foyers
gamma-H2A.X a été observée à partir de 10 minutes après l'exposition et 24 heures après l’exposition, environ 90% des foyers persistants sont associés à un CN-PML. De plus, la présence de foyers persistants ne bloque pas définitivement la prolifération des cellules. Cependant, la fréquence des foyers persistants est plus faible dans les cellules filles que dans les cellules irradiées, probablement en raison d'une certaine proportion de distribution asymétrique des foyers persistants entre les cellules filles. Nous avons également mesuré une corrélation positive entre la présence d'un foyer persistant et la probabilité de mauvaise ségrégation de l'ADN par l'observation de phénomènes de catastrophes mitotiques. Il semble donc que la…

▼ Afin de protéger durablement les écosystèmes face aux rejets planifiés ou accidentels de radionucléides dans l’environnement, il est essentiel d’évaluer l’impact de l’exposition des organismes aux radiations ionisantes sur le long terme, à l’échelle de plusieurs générations. Dans ce contexte, ce travail de doctorat vise à améliorer la caractérisation des processus moléculaires et la prédiction des effets transgénérationnels lors d’une exposition aux radiations gamma. Une approche expérimentale concerne l’étude des modifications épigénétiques radio-induites, c’est-à-dire des modifications des mécanismes régulant l’activité des gènes sans modification de la séquence d’ADN elle-même et de leur transmission au fil des générations. Cette étude a permis de mettre en évidence que certaines modifications de la méthylation de l’ADN, l’un des mécanismes épigénétiques les plus étudiés, peuvent être transmises par la lignée germinale aux les générations non-exposées (génération F3) suite à une exposition parentale (génération F0) externe aux radiations gamma (6,5 µGy.h-1 et 41,3 mGy.h-1) pendant 25 jours. Dans une seconde approche, un modèle mécaniste DEBtox (Budget Energétique Dynamique appliqué à la toxicologie) est modifié pour permettre l’analyse des effets des radiations gamma sur la croissance et la reproduction de D. magna à l’échelle de plusieurs générations. Pour ce faire, on utilise des compartiments de dommage, dont le niveau peut être hérité d’une génération à la suivante. Le modèle est ajusté aux données avec des méthodes d’inférence bayésienne afin d’estimer les paramètres tout en tenant compte des incertitudes qui leur sont associées.
In order to durably protect ecosystems facing planned or accidental releases of radionuclides, the long-term impact of organism exposure to ionizing radiation must be studied on a multigenerational scale. The aim of this PhD is to improve the characterization of molecular processes and the prediction of transgenerational effects during a gamma irradiation. First, an experimental approach investigated on radio-induced modifications of epigenetic processes, i.e. changes in mechanisms that regulate gene expression without changing DNA sequence itself and on the transmission of these modifications to subsequent generations. Significant changes in DNA methylation, a well-studied epigenetic mechanism, detected in generation F3 clearly showed that epigenetic modifications could be transmitted to unexposed generations, in response to the exposure of a parental generation (F0) to external gamma radiation (6.5 µGy.h-1 et 41.3 mGy.h-1) for 25 days. Second, a mechanistic modelling approach used a modified version of the DEBtox model (Dynamic Energy Budget model applied to toxicology) in order to analyze effects of gamma radiation on D. magna growth and reproduction over several generations. To that end, damage compartments, with damage levels that were transmitted from one generation to the next, were included. The model was fitted to data using Bayesian inference methods, in order to…

▼ Les activités anthropiques liées à l'industrie nucléaire contribuent à des rejets continus de radionucléides dans les écosystèmes terrestres et aquatiques. Les travaux réalisés au cours de ce doctorat visent à apporter de nouvelles connaissances relatives aux effets des radiations ionisantes au cours d’une exposition multigénérationnelle de l’invertébré aquatique, Daphnia magna. Une irradiation gamma externe à des débits de doses pertinents du point de vue environnemental a été réalisée sur D. magna pendant trois générations successives. Les résultats mettent en évidence une accumulation et une transmission d’altérations de l’ADN au fil des générations, en parallèle d’une augmentation de la sensibilité des daphnies. Les données d’irradiation gamma et celles d’une étude antérieure de contamination alpha ont été analysées à l’aide du modèle mathématique DEBtox. Le modèle montre que les deux types de rayonnements agissent différemment sur les daphnies au cours des générations. Ce projet de recherche indique clairement qu’à l’avenir il est important d’étudier et de comprendre les effets transgénérationnels des radiations ionisantes à faibles doses.
Anthropogenic activities related to the nuclear industry contribute to continuous discharges of radionuclides into terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. The aim of this PhD was to bring new knowledge on the effects of ionizing radiation during a multigenerational expose of the aquatic invertebrate, Daphnia magna. An external gamma radiation at environmentally relevant dose rates was performed on D. magna over three successive generations. Results show an accumulation and a transmission of DNA alterations over generations, in parallel of an increase in sensitivity of organisms. Gamma radiation data and those of a previous study of alpha contamination were analyzed using the mathematical model DEBtox. The model shows that the two types of radiation act differently on daphnia over generations. This research clearly indicates the importance of further studying and understanding transgenerational effects induced by low doses radiation in the future.

▼ La Ciclina O és una nova ciclina que interacciona amb CDK1 i CDK2, i que s’ha demonstrat ser necessària per l’apoptòsi induïda per radiació
gamma en una linia cel·lular d’origen linfoide. La radiació
gamma indueix la formació de talls de doble cadena (DSBs) al
DNA activant la resposta per dany al
DNA (DDR) per tal de reduïr-ne les conseqüències citotòxiques i reparar el dany al
DNA. L’objectiu d’aquesta tesi ha esta el d’estudiar el paper de la Ciclina O en l’activació de la resposta per dany al
DNA i les conseqüències sobre la supervivència cel·lular. Utilitzant cèl·lules deficients en Ciclina O com a model, hem trobat que la Cyclina O limita el processament dels talls de doble cadena necessaris per a la reparació del dany al
DNA per recombinació homologa. També hem una deficient activació d’ATM i la fosforil·lació d’alguns substrats d’aquesta proteína en cèl·lules deficients per la Ciclina O. Finalment, hem vist que els complexes de Ciclina O fosforil·len ATM in vitro, un fet que obre una porta a l’estudi de nous mecanismes de regulació de la resposta per dany al
DNA mitjançant la Ciclina O.

▼ The aim of this PhD Thesis was the determination of very low concentrations of natural and artificial radioactive isotopes in environmental samples by means of gamma-spectroscopy techniques. Natural and artificial radioactive isotopes of low or higher specific activity are contained and can be detected in any environmental sample. Even when their specific activity is low, leading to negligible radiobiological significance, their detection is of interest in various applications, such as their use as tracers for environmental processes. In addition, improving the levels of detection of an isotope using a γ-spectroscopic apparatus, may allow the detection of the isotope in smaller volume samples without significant compromise on the accuracy of the measurement, which has obvious consequences in the design of the sampling. Since the background of a γ-spectroscopic apparatus is a factor determining the ability to detect low levels of radioactivity in a sample, its reduction is always highly desirable.In the framework of the Thesis the installation, study and use of the new Compton Suppression system (CSS), which was installed on the XtRa detector of the N.E.D. - N.T.U.A was carried out, aiming the reduction the continuous background of the detector and the improvement of the detection limits of the XtRa - CSS apparatus. The electronic set-up of the apparatus allows for the simultaneous collection of two spectra with a suppressed or not (unsuppressed) continuous background. In the framework of the study, a series of response factors were used, as referred in literature, through which the effect of various phenomena observed in the detection of photons by the Compton Suppression system was identified, and should be taken into account both during the calibration of the device, and during routine analyzes. As a result of this study, the optimal conditions for the detection of each isotope are proposed. The device was then calibrated experimentally but also using Monte Carlo simulation techniques for a series of source-to-detector geometries. For this purpose, it was necessary to modify the PENELOPE simulation code used in the N.E.D. - N.T.U.A in order to take into account both the true coincidence phenomenon during spectrum collection and to simulate a Compton Suppression system consisting of two independent detectors (primary detector and secondary detector or active shield) that communicate with each other.One of the main objectives of the Thesis was the detection of radioactive isotopes found at very low concentrations in environmental samples. For this purpose appropriate sampling techniques for atmospheric aerosols and liquid atmospheric precipitations and sample preparation were developed and a large number of samples were analyzed, mainly (a) contaminated samples due to the nuclear accidents in Chernobyl and Fukushima, (b) atmospheric aerosol and precipitation samples. From these analyzes it was possible to detect 241Am from the Chernobyl accident and a strong correlation with the 137Cs concentration was found. In…

▼ Gamma-Ray spectrometry is a method used to detect and quantify the concentrations of multiple radioactive elements in a single measurement, by collecting and discriminating in energy the emitted radiation, using suitable nuclear detectors. Radioactive elements (radionuclides) occur naturally on the earth's crust (primordial or terrestrial) or are produced in the upper atmosphere due to the interaction with cosmic rays (cosmogenic). Enhanced levels of radioactivity have been observed in several regions attributed to natural causes or to anthropogenic activities which are also responsible for the presence of a large variety of artificially produced radioactive elements in the environment. Radiation poses risks for living organisms by damaging tissues and the DNA and therefore the human population protection from radiation is one of the most significant applications of Gamma-Ray Spectrometry. Moreover, numerous radioactive elements constitute valuable tracers for a great variety of dynamic physical, chemical, geological and biological processes in soils, air, freshwater and oceans and therefore the knowledge of their concentration is essential. In situ gamma-ray measurements are nowadays increasingly substituting laboratory ones as they offer real-time continuous measurements and more representative results. My dissertation’s main contribution regarding in situ measurements on the aquatic environment was the development of a reliable and time-efficient method for the concentrations determination, using the Full Spectrum Analysis (FSA) technique. The methodology steps involved the implementation of Monte Carlo codes (MCNP-CP/FLUKA) to perform a theoretical calibration of the detector, the development of numerical algorithms for the radionuclide concentration estimations and the experimental validation of the theoretical results. This technique offers the advantage of a rapid determination of concentrations, which is crucial for handling large scale data or in cases where immediate decisions need to be taken (nuclear accident releases). It was applied in several different test cases by performing in situ measurements in different marine environments (Cyprus, Lavrion, and Peloponnesus). Concerning measurements on the seabed, the main objective of this thesis was to develop a methodology able to provide accurate concentration results. A substantial part of the analytical work is focused on understanding and exploiting a wide range of problems associated with in situ measurements on the seabed, where the available data are sparse. The parameters (morphology and sediment physical properties, geometry setups, inhomogeneous depth profiles) affecting the detection efficiency were determined, and their effects on the detector response were systematically studied, via MC simulations (MCNP5/FLUKA). As a result, a calibration approach for in situ gamma-ray measurements on the seabed was developed allowing the detection and determination of multiple radionuclide concentrations (in full spectral range). In addition,…

▼ PPAR-
gamma is a nuclear receptor that plays a central role in metabolic regulation by regulating extensive gene expression networks in adipose, liver, skeletal muscle and many other tissues. Human PPAR-
gamma mutations are rare and cause a monogenetic form of severe type II diabetes with metabolic syndrome, known as familiar partial lypodystrophy. The E157D PPAR-
gamma mutant causes atypical lipodystrophy in a large Canadian kindred, presenting with multiple musculoskeletal, neurological and hematological abnormalities in addition to the classic lipodystrophy features of insulin-resistant diabetes, hypertension and dyslipidemia. This mutation is localized to the p-box of PPAR-
gamma, a small region that interacts directly with the
DNA molecule and is required for
DNA binding site specificity. Mechanistic analysis revealed that E157D PPAR-
gamma binds PPAR-
gamma response elements (PPREs), but is mildly, moderately or severely defective at inducing transcription from most promoters, without dominant negative activity. This suppression of transcriptional activity may be mediated by an increased effect of nuclear receptor corepressors on E157D PPAR-
gamma. In addition, the mutant binds atypical PPREs in the regulatory regions of a small set of genes outside of the PPAR-
gamma-regulated network, and induces transcription of these genes. The loss of transcriptional activity on PPAR-
gamma-regulated promoters leads to the metabolic disease in the E157D PPAR-
gamma cohort, while the gain of activity on non- PPAR-
gamma target promoters may explain the atypical clinical presentation associated with this mutation. The misregulation of target genes by this
DNA-contacting mutant highlights a previously under-appreciated importance of the
DNA molecule as an allosteric regulator of the transcriptional activity of nuclear receptors. In summary, this dissertation describes a human PPAR-
gamma mutation that works through a novel mechanism to cause atypical lipodystrophy, and provides support for a more integrated view of the nuclear receptor-
DNA interaction and transcription activation.

▼ In understanding
DNA as a biomarker over geologic time
scales, it is important to determine the longevity of the signal
under common environmental stress. Shewanella spp of bacteria in
aqueous solution were subjucted to lethal doses of UVC radiation,
gamma radiation and thermal and cryogenic conditions. The species
succumbed to UVC quickly with a post-mortem
DNA signal at least 2
orders of magnitude longer than the life of the cell. Cryogenic
stress revealed differential death, but no obvious signal
degradation and
gamma radiation showed some degradation with cell
death but more data are needed to determine a half life for the
signal. This study indicates a
DNA signal could last 0 (thermal
conditions) to 4 or more (cryogenic conditions) orders of magnitude
beyond cell death depending on the environment and the time of cell
death.

▼ The human mitochondrial polymerase (pol γ) is a nuclearly-encoded polymerase that is solely responsible for the faithful replication and repair of the mitochondrial genome. The Y955C mutation in pol γ results in early onset progressive external ophthalmoplegia, premature ovarian failure, and Parkinson’s disease. It is believed that the position of this Y955 residue on the catalytic helix in the polymerase makes it responsible for stabilizing the incoming nucleotide. I have investigated the kinetic effect of the Y955C mutation. Mutation of the tyrosine to a cysteine resulted in a decreased maximum rate of polymerization and increased the dissociation constant for incoming nucleotide. In turn, this decreased catalytic efficiency by 30 to 100-fold. In addition, the polymerase did not incorporate all bases with the same efficiency, it was most efficient when incorporating dGTP opposite a dC, but showed less efficient catalysis when faced with an A:T or T:A base-pair. The polymerase also showed reduced discrimination against misincorporation events. However, when presented with an oxidatively-damaged base, 8-oxo-deoxyguanosine, the polymerase chose to incorporate the base in the correct conformation opposite a dC, discriminating against the mutagenic incorporation of 8-oxo-dGTP opposite a dA. The results presented in this thesis suggest that the severe clinical symptoms of patients with this mutation are at least due in part to the reduced efficiency and discrimination of this polymerase γ mutation.

▼ Neste trabalho estudamos o efeito da exposição de células humanas à radiação ionizante e em associação a campos elétricos exógenos estáticos. A linhagem T47D de células de carcinoma ductal mamário foi irradiada com gamas no intervalo 0 8 Gy. A viabilidade celular da linhagem T47D exposta à radiação gama e campo elétrico estático (CEE) de 1.250 V/cm foi cerca de 12% inferior à viabilidade observada apenas com irradiação. Quando aplicado isoladamente por 24 e 72 horas o CEE não induziu toxicidade. A imunofluorescência realizada na linhagem normal MRC5 (fibroblasto de pulmão humano normal) quantificou a expressão da histona -H2AX. A quantidade de histonas fosforiladas foi cerca de 40% maior após irradiação com 2 Gy mais CEE aplicado por 1h, indicando que o campo elétrico interferiu negativamente no processo de reparo das quebras duplas de DNA. A análise de citometria de fluxo (FACS) mostrou que em células T47D tratadas com 1 e 2 Gy por 24 horas o CEE também interferiu negativamente no processo de reparo do DNA, notadamente pelo maior acúmulo de células na fase S.
Our goal is the study in human cells of the effect resulting from the association of irradiation with exposure to exogenous static electric fields. The T47D cell line of breast cancer cells was irradiated with gammas in the 0 8 Gy doses range. The viability of this T47D cells exposed to both gamma radiation and 1.250 V/cm static electric field (SEF) was about 12% lower than when only irradiated. The sole exposure of the cells to SEF by 24 and 72 hours didnt induce toxicity. Immunofluorescence runs carried out in irradiated normal MRC5 cell line of human lung fibroblast have quantified the expression of the g-H2AX histone. The amount of phosphorylated histones was approximately 40% higher after irradiation with 2 Gy plus exposure to a SEF by 1 hour, showing that the electric field negatively interfered in the repairing process of the DNA double strand breaks. The flow cytometry analysis with FACS showed that in T47D cells treated with 1 and 2 Gy by 24 hours the SEF also negatively interfered in the DNA repairing process, as evidenced by the higher accumulation of cells in the S phase.
