摘要

Although deficient DNA-repair was proposed for neurodegenerative disorders including Down Syndrome (DS), repair genes for nucleotide excision repair or X-ray repair have not been studied in brain yet. As one of the hypotheses for the pathogenesis of brain damage in DS is oxidative stress and cells of patients with DS are more susceptible to ionizing irradiation, we decided to study ERCC2, ERCC3 and XRCC1, representatives of repair genes known to be involved in the repair of oxidative DNA-damage. mRNA steady state levels of ERCC2, ERCC3, XRCC1, a transcription activator (TAF-DBP) and an elongation factor (EF1A) were determined and normalized versus the housekeeping gene beta-actin in five individual brain regions of nine controls and nine DS patients. Although different in the individual regions, DNA-repair genes were consistently higher in temporal, parietal and occipital lobes of patients with DS accompanied by comparable changes of TFA-DBP and EF1A. Our results are the first to describe DNA-repair gene patterns in human brain regions providing the basis for further studies in this area. We showed that DNA-repair genes ERCC2 and ERCC3 (excision-repair-cross-complementing-) for nucleotide excision repair and XRCC1 (X-ray-repair-cross-complementing-) for X-ray-repair, were increased at the transcriptional level with the possible biological meaning that this increase may be compatible with permanent (oxidative?) DNA damage.
