Klappentext zu „Rakotomalala, L: Hepatitis B virus X protein, and polyploidy “
Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) X protein (pX) is implicatedby an unknown mechanism inhepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development,characterized by increased rate ofchromosomal aberrations. Although most patients clearthe infection and developimmunity, chronic infection in 5 to 10% infectedpatients lead to HCC development inthe 4th to 5th decade of life. I demonstrate thattetracycline-regulated pX expressioninduces multipolar spindles and polyploidy (4N DNA).To understand the mechanismof pX-mediated polyploidy, I investigated whether pXpromotes DNA re-replication.Dual-parameter flow cytometry demonstratespX-dependent BrdU incorporation in cellswith 4N DNA. pX also induces expression ofreplication initiation factors Cdc6 andCdtl, while suppressing geminin expression, anegative regulator of re-replication. G2-phase synchronized cells exhibit pX-dependent: i)nuclear Cdc6 and Mcm5 colocalization;ii) absence of nuclear geminin; iii) increased BrdUincorporation; iv) ATRactivation; v) RAD17 and H2AX phosphorylation; andvi) co-localization of -H2AXwith the DNA elongation factor PCNA.
