Project description:Memory T cells are primed for rapid responses to antigen; however, the molecular mechanisms responsible for priming remain incompletely defined. CpG methylation in promoters is an epigenetic modification, which regulates gene transcription. Using targeted bisulfite sequencing, we examined methylation of 2100 genes (56,000 CpG) mapped by deep sequencing to T cell activation in human naïve and memory CD4 T cells. 466 CpGs (132 genes) displayed differential methylation between naïve and memory cells. 21 genes exhibited both differential methylation and gene expression before activation, linking promoter DNA methylation states to gene regulation; 6 genes encode proteins closely studied in T cells while 15 genes represent novel targets for further study. 39 genes exhibited reduced methylation in memory cells coupled with increased gene expression with activation compared to naïve cells, revealing specific genes more rapidly expressed in memory compared to naïve cells and potentially regulated by DNA methylation. These findings define a DNA methylation signature unique to memory CD4 T cells and correlated with activation-induced gene expression. transcriptome of primary human naïve and memory CD4 T cells at rest and 48 hours post-activation.

Project description:Differentiation of CD4+T-cells into effector subsets is a critical component of the adaptive immune system and an incorrect response can lead to autoimmunity or immune deficiency. Cellular differentiation including T-cell differentiation is accompanied by large-scale epigenetic remodeling, including changes in DNA methylation at key regulators of T-cell differentiation. The TET family of enzymes were recently shown to be able to catalyse methylated cytosine (5mC) into 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) enabling a pathway of active removal of DNA methylation. Here, we characterize 5hmC, 5mC and transcriptional dynamics during human CD4+T-cell polarisation in a time series approach and relate these changes to profiles in ex-vivo CD4+memory subsets. We observed large-scale remodelling during early CD4+T-cell differentiation which was predictive of subsequent changes during late time points, these changes were also related to disease associated regions which we show can act as functional regulatory elements. This dataset was designed to assess how DNA methylation differs between in-vivo derived CD4+memory T-cell subsets. DNA methylation was assessed in relationship to gene expression levels and changes (see data series), we observed anticorrelation between promoter DNA methylation levels and gene expression. This submission contains data from DNA methylation profiling of primary human CD4+T-cell memory subsets. This is part of a series, containing transcription and DNA methylation profiling of the same samples. See related experiments E-MTAB-4685, E-MTAB-4686, E-MTAB-4687, E-MTAB-4688

This dataset was designed to assess how gene expression changes over time during human CD4+T-cell polarization towards Th1 and Th2. Gene expression was assessed in relationship to 5hmC and DNA methylation levels and changes (see data series), we observed characteristic gene expression for the specific time points and stimuli or cell type and the expression was correlated with gene body 5hmC as well as anticorrelated with promoter DNA methylation levels. This submission contains data from transcription profiling by array of human CD4+T-cells, Th1/Th2 polarized time-series and primary memory subsets. It is part of series containing 5hmC and DNA methylation profiling of the same samples. See related experiments E-MTAB-4685, E-MTAB-4686, E-MTAB-4688, E-MTAB-4689.

Project description:Background: Methotrexate (MTX) is the first line treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and methylation changes in bulk T cells have been reported after treatment with MTX. We have investigated cell-type specific DNA methylation changes across the genome in naïve and memory CD4+ T cells before and after MTX treatment of RA patients. DNA methylation profiles of newly diagnosed RA patients (N=9) were assessed by reduced representation bisulfite sequencing. Results: We found that MTX treatment significantly influenced DNA methylation levels at multiple CpG sites in both cell populations. Interestingly, we identified differentially methylated sites annotated to two genes; TRIM15 and SORC2, previously reported to predict treatment outcome in RA patients when measured in bulk T cells. Furthermore, several of the genes, including STAT3, annotated to the significant CpG sites are relevant for RA susceptibility or the action of MTX. Conclusion: We detected CpG sites that were associated with MTX treatment in CD4+ naïve and memory T cells isolated from RA patients. Several of these sites overlap genetic regions previously associated with RA risk and MTX treatment outcome.

DNA methylation was assessed in relationship to 5hmC levels and changes (see data series), we observed that regions gaining 5hmC early was highly predictive of regions losing DNA methylation during late time points. This submission contains data from the DNA methylation by array profiling of human CD4+T-cells in-vitro polarized towards Th1 and Th2 time-series.
