H2AX is phosphorylated (gamma H2AX) by members of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) family, including ataxia telangiectasia-mutated (ATM), ATM- and Rad3-related (ATR) and DNA-PK in response to DNA damage. While it has been reported that benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) cannot induce gamma H2AX alone in several cell lines, we have shown that BaP alone could induce gamma H2AX in human amnion FL cells. Thus, we further examined the ability of BaP to induce gamma H2AX in different cell systems. It was shown that BaP-induced gamma H2AX in HeLa cells in a time- and dose-dependent manner. BaP also induced gamma H2AX in ATM(-/-) mouse fibroblasts, DNA-PKcs(-/-) mouse fibroblasts, and a genetically modified human osteosarcoma U2OS cell line. PI3K inhibitors caffeine and wortmannin were then used in an effort to identify the kinase(s) responsible for BaP-induced gamma H2AX. Unexpectedly, in BaP-treated HeLa cells, caffeine pretreatment did not inhibit but rather increased gamma H2AX level. On the other hand, caffeine or wortmannin can inhibit BaP-induced gamma H2AX in either U2OS, DNA-PKcs(-/-) or ATM(-/-) cells. Taken together, these data suggest that BaP alone can induce H2AX phosphorylation in certain cell systems, and that members of the PI3K family, including ATM, AIR, and DNA-PK can participate in the phosphorylation of H2AX in the various cell types.
