Project description:This study mapped the genome wide DNA methylation changes in CD3+ T lymphocytes from rhesus monkeys from postnatal day 14 through two years of age in both males and females and determined the impact of maternal deprivation on the DNA methylation profile. We show here that DNA methylation profiles evolve from birth to adolescence and are sex dependent. DNA methylation changes accompany imposed weaning, attenuating the difference between males and females. Altogether 71 T cell DNA samples were used in 4 different groups (male control, male stress, female control, female stress) at 4 different developmental stage (1 month, before weaning at 6-7 months, after weaning at 9-10 months, and after 2 years at 26-30 months) having 3-6 samples per each group. The DNA samples were pooled in each group and then subjected to Whole Genome Amplification in triplicates.

Project description:This study mapped the genome wide DNA methylation changes in whole blood and buccal swab samples of 2 year old male rhesus monkeys subjected to parental deprivation in their first months of life (surrogate peer-reared condition). Equal numbers of control mother-reared (MR) and surrogate peer-reared (SPR) male monkeys whole blood (5 vs 5) and buccal swab samples (3 vs 3) were analyzed by methylated DNA immunoprecipitation (MeDIP) coupled with promoter tiling arrays.

Project description:Background: Prenatal maternal stress (PNMS) predicts a wide variety of behavioral and physical outcomes in the offspring. Although epigenetic processes may be responsible for PNMS effects, human research is hampered by the lack of experimental methods that parallel controlled animal studies. Disasters, however, provide natural experiments that can provide models of prenatal stress. Methods: Five months after the 1998 Quebec ice storm we recruited women who had been pregnant during the disaster and assessed their degrees of objective hardship and subjective distress. Thirteen years later, we investigated DNA methylation profiling in T cells obtained from 36 of the children, and compared selected results with those from saliva samples obtained from the same children at age 8. Results: Prenatal maternal objective hardship was correlated with DNA methylation levels in 1675 CGs affiliated with 957 genes predominantly related to immune function; maternal subjective distress was uncorrelated. DNA methylation changes in SCG5 and LTA, both highly correlated with maternal objective stress, were comparable in T cells, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and saliva cells. Conclusions: These data provide first evidence in humans supporting the conclusion that PNMS results in a lasting, broad, and functionally organized DNA methylation signature in several tissues in offspring. By using a natural disaster model, we can infer that the epigenetic effects found in Project Ice Storm are due to objective levels of hardship experienced by the pregnant woman rather than to her level of sustained distress. Bisulphite converted DNA from the 34 samples were hybridised to the Illumina Infinium 450k Human Methylation Beadchip v1.2

Project description:prenatal stress response, genetic modification Background: Prenatal stress (PS) exposure has been shown to increase the risk for emotional disorders in later life. Furthermore, the serotonin transporter (5-HTT) genotype is suggested to exert a modulating effect on the association between early life stress and the risk for depression. In the present study, we use a 5-HTT x PS paradigm to investigate whether the effects of PS are dependent upon the 5-HTT genotype. Methods: The effects of PS on cognition, anxiety- and depression-related behaviour were examined using a maternal restraint stress paradigm of PS in C57BL6 wild-type (WT) and heterozygous (+/-) 5-HTT knockout mice. Additionally, in the female offspring, a genome-wide hippocampal gene expression screening was performed. Results: 5-HTT +/- offspring showed enhanced memory performance and signs of reduced anxiety as compared to WT offspring. Conversely, exposure of 5-HTT +/- mice to PS was associated with altered stress-responsivity and increased depressive-like behaviour, particularly in female offspring. Further, 5-HTT genotype, PS and their interaction differentially affected the expression of numerous genes and related pathways within the female hippocampus. Specifically, MAPK and neurotrophin signalling were regulated by both the 5-HTT +/- genotype and PS exposure, whereas cytokine and Wnt signalling were affected in a 5-HTT genotype x PS manner, indicating a gene x environment interaction at the molecular level. Conclusions: The long-term behavioural effects of PS in C57BL6 mice are partly dependent on the 5-HTT genotype. Further, hippocampal gene expression profiles suggest that distinct molecular mechanisms mediate the behavioural effects of the 5-HTT genotype, PS exposure, and their interaction. total samples analysed are 12

Project description:DNA methylation profiles were generating using Illumina HM450 microarrays in a prospective sample blood from the prenatal period of pregnant mood disorder patients who would and would not develop depression post partum. We recruited 54 pregnant women with a history of either Major Depression or Bipolar Disorder (I, II or NOS) and prospectively followed them during pregnancy and after delivery in order to identify genetic and clinical characteristics that precede the development of a postpartum depressive episode. Blood samples profiled were collected at varying time points during pregnancy.

Project description:Sus scrofa (pig, or swine) is one of the most important economic animals and a close biological model for complex human diseases such as obesity and diabetes. It is therefore utterly important to decode the porcine microRNAome (miRNAome) as in the literature only a small portion of it is known. In this work, a comprehensive search for porcine microRNAs (miRNAs) by Illumina sequencing was performed in ten small RNA libraries prepared from mixtures of assorted tissues, which included those collected from fetuses to adult pigs. The millions of the sequencing reads were analyzed with reference to 77 known porcine miRNA precursors (pre-miRNAs) and 3,443 distinct pre-miRNAs of other mammals listed in miRBase 13.0, and the most updated porcine genome (Sscrofa9, April 2009) and available EST sequences. Additionally, miRNA candidates specific to pig are predicated by genome & EST match and hairpin folding. Our search found 72 out of 78 (~92%) known porcine miRNAs and miRNA*s, and 36 previously unannotated miRNA*s are also indentified. Furthermore, we discovered 397 novel miRNAs by mapping to the sequencing transcripts to other mammalian pre-miRNAs and 493 candidate miRNAs which do not map to other mammalian miRNAomes and could be pig-specific. We constructed sequence- and genome-position clusters for the total of 998 miRNA candidates originating from 862 pre-miRNAs, which represent 777 unique miRNA sequences. Together with the six known porcine miRNAs that not been observed in our study, we report herein the sequence families of 783 unique miRNAs and genomic distribution patterns of 622 pre-miRNAs. We preformed q-PCR experiments for selected 30 miRNAs in 47 tissue-specific samples and found agreement between the sequencing data and the q-PCR data. We envision that our report will serve as a valuable resource for future studies aimed at understanding miRNAome of pig Ten small RNA libraries from samples of porcine fetuses (30 days after insemination) to mixed tissues (180 days after birth) at ten developmental stages were sequenced.

Project description:The precise regulation of gene expression is fundamental to neurodevelopment, plasticity, and cognitive function. While several studies have profiled transcription in the developing human brain, there is a gap in our understanding of accompanying translational regulation. We performed ribosome profiling on 73 human prenatal and adult cortex samples. We characterized the translational regulation of annotated open reading frames (ORFs) and identified thousands of previously unknown translation events, including small ORFs that give rise to human- and/or brain-specific microproteins, many of which we independently verified using proteomics. Ribosome profiling in stem cell-derived human neuronal cultures corroborated these findings and revealed that several neuronal activity-induced non-coding RNAs encode previously undescribed microproteins. Physicochemical analysis of brain microproteins identified a class of proteins that contain arginine-glycine-glycine (RGG) repeats and thus may be regulators of RNA metabolism. This resource expands the known translational landscape of the human brain and illuminates previously unknown brain-specific protein products.
