SUMMARY:Yun Min Song\, Pulsed stimuli entrain p53 to synchronize single cells and modulate cell-fate determination
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss about “Pulsed stimuli entrain p53 to synchronize single cells and modulate cell-fate determination” bioRxiv (2023): 2023-10. \nAbstract \n\n\nEntrainment to an external stimulus enables a synchronized oscillatory response across a population of cells\, increasing coherent responses by reducing cell-to-cell heterogeneity. It is unclear whether the property of entrainability extends to systems where responses are intrinsic to the individual cell\, rather than dependent on coherence across a population of cells. Using a combination of mathematical modeling\, time-lapse fluorescence microscopy\, and single-cell tracking\, we demonstrated that p53 oscillations triggered by DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) can be entrained with a periodic damage stimulus\, despite such synchrony not known to function in effective DNA damage responses. Surprisingly\, p53 oscillations were experimentally entrained over a wider range of DSB frequencies than predicted by an established computational model for the system. We determined that recapitulating the increased range of entrainment frequencies required\, non-intuitively\, a less robust oscillator and wider steady-state valley on the energy landscape. Further\, we show that p53 entrainment can lead to altered expression dynamics of downstream targets responsible for cell fate in a manner dependent on target mRNA stability. Overall\, this study demonstrates that entrainment can occur in a biological oscillator despite the apparent lack of an evolutionary advantage conferred through synchronized responses and highlights the potential of externally entraining p53 dynamics to reduce cellular variability and synchronize cell-fate responses for therapeutic outcomes.
