Oxidative stress induces an ATM-independent senescence pathway through p38 MAPK-mediated lamin B1 accumulation
2012
We report crosstalk between three
senescence-inducing conditions, DNA damage response (DDR) defects, oxidative stress (OS) and nuclear shape
alterations. The recessive autosomal
genetic disorder
Ataxia telangiectasia(A-T) is associated with DDR defects, endogenous OS and
premature ageing. Here, we find frequent nuclear shape
alterationsin A-T cells, as well as accumulation of the key nuclear architecture component
laminB1.
LaminB1 overexpression is sufficient to induce nuclear shape
alterationsand
senescencein wild-type cells, and normalizing
laminB1 levels in A-T cells reciprocally reduces both nuclear shape
alterationsand
senescence. We further show that OS increases
laminB1 levels through
p38 Mitogen Activated Protein kinaseactivation.
LaminB1 accumulation and nuclear shape
alterationsalso occur during stress-induced
senescenceand oncogene-induced
senescence(OIS), two canonical
senescencesituations. These data reveal
laminB1 as a general molecular mediator that controls OS-induced
senescence, independent of established
Ataxia TelangiectasiaMutated (ATM) roles in OIS.
