Project description:Our study is based on the hypothesis that PCOS can be explained by an integrated, epigenetic model, whereby environmental factors modify the effect of susceptibility genes and influence the clinical heterogeneity that is characteristic of the syndrome during adult life. With the aim to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying PCOS, we report results from a case-control, genome-wide methylation study using human DNA from granulosa lutein cells.

Project description:This experiment investigates the relationship between maternal fluoride exposure during pregnancy and DNA methylation patterns in the placenta, aiming to identify epigenetic alterations associated with reduced kidney volume at birth. Placental samples were collected from term deliveries and classified according to maternal fluoride concentration and neonatal kidney volume. Genomic DNA was extracted, bisulfite-converted, and hybridized to the Illumina Infinium MethylationEPIC v2.0 BeadChip to quantify methylation across more than 935,000 CpG sites. Data preprocessing, quality control, and normalization were performed using the SeSAMe package in R, following Illumina’s recommended pipeline for EPIC v2.0 arrays. Differentially methylated positions and regions were identified to explore potential epigenetic mechanisms linking prenatal fluoride exposure with altered renal development.

Project description:Background: Low birth weight is associated with an increased adult metabolic disease risk. It is widely discussed that poor intrauterine conditions could induce long-lasting epigenetic modifications, leading to systemic changes in regulation of metabolic genes. In a unique cohort of 17 monozygotic (MZ) monochorionic female twins very discordant for birth weight (relative differences ranging from 21.3-35.7%), we examined if adverse prenatal growth conditions experienced by the smaller co-twins lead to systemic long-lasting DNA methylation changes. Genome-wide DNA methylation profiles were acquired from saliva DNA using the Infinium HumanMethylation450 BeadChip, targeting ~2% of all CpGs in the genome. Results: Overall, co-twins showed very similar genome-wide DNA methylation profiles. Since observed differences were almost exclusively caused by variable cellular composition, an original marker-based adjustment strategy was developed to eliminate such variation at affected CpGs. Among adjusted and unchanged CpGs 3153 were differentially methylated between the heavy and light co-twins at nominal significance (p<0.01), of which 45 showed absolute mean β-value differences >0.05 (max=0.08). Deep bisulfite sequencing of eight such loci revealed that differences remained in the range of technical variation, arguing against a reproducible biological effect. Analysis of methylation in repetitive elements using methylation-dependent primer extension assays also indicated no significant intra-pair differences. Conclusions: Severe intrauterine growth differences observed within these MZ twins are not associated with long-lasting DNA methylation differences in cells composing saliva, detectable with up-to-date technologies. Additionally, our results indicate that uneven cell type composition can lead to spurious results and should be addressed in epigenomic studies.

Project description:Matrix elasticity influences differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) but it is unclear if these effects are only transient - while the cells reside on the substrate - or if they reflect persistent lineage commitment. In this study, MSCs were continuously culture-expanded in parallel either on polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) gels of different elasticity or on tissue culture plastic (TCP) to compare impact on replicative senescence, in vitro differentiation, gene expression, and DNA methylation (DNAm) profiles. The maximal number of cumulative population doublings was not affected by matrix elasticity. Differentiation towards adipogenic and osteogenic lineage was increased on soft and rigid biomaterials, respectively - but this propensity was no more evident if cells were transferred to TCP. Global gene expression profiles and DNAm profiles revealed relatively few differences in MSCs cultured on soft or rigid matrices. Furthermore, only moderate DNAm changes were observed upon culture on very soft hydrogels of human platelet lysate (hPL-gel). Our results support the notion that matrix elasticity influences cellular differentiation while the cells are organized on the substrate, but it does not have major impact on cell-intrinsic lineage determination, replicative senescence or DNAm patterns. 20 samples were hybridized to the Illumina Infinium 450k Human Methylation Beadchip

Project description:In this study, we have analyzed DNA methylation characteristics of human mesenchymal stem and progenitor cells (MSPCs) form different tissue sources including bone marrow (BM), white adipose tissue (WAT ), umbilical cord (UC) as well as dermal fibroblasts by using the HumanMethylation450K array. Cells able to form bone through endochondral ossification and attract bone marrow in an innovative in vivo model were compared to cells lacking these capacities. Interestingly only BM-derived MSPCs were capable of bone formation and marrow attraction. These features correlated with unique epigenetic characteristics potentially enabling BM-derived cells to undergo endochondral ossification. 12 samples were hybridised to the Illumina Infinium 450k Human Methylation Beadchip

Project description:DNA methylation profiling of glioblastoma, IDH-wildtype (GBM, IDH wt) to explore biomarkers linked to clinical outcome under Tumor Treating Fields (TTFields). FFPE tumor tissue was pathology-reviewed and macro-dissected; DNA was bisulfite-converted and hybridized to Illumina Infinium MethylationEPIC BeadChips (v1.0 and v2.0). The submission provides raw IDATs. Methylation classes and copy-number profiles were derived and integrated with clinical covariates to test whether (epi-) genetic features stratify prognosis and can guide TTFields initiation.

Project description:Colorectal tumorigenesis proceedes through well defined clinical stages assoicated with charateristic mutations. Besides genetic alterations, epi-driver genes that are aberrantly expressed in cancers in a fashion that confers a seletive growth advantage can also contribute to tumor evolution. To gain a global view of methylation patterns in normal and maliganant colorectal epithelia, we performed genome-wide DNA methylation analysis on DNAs from 48 fresh frozen CRC samples at different stages of CRC progression. We used IlluminaHumanMethylation450 Beadchip to get a broad view of genome-wide DNA methylationdata during CRC progression and identified significantly differentially methylated genes during CRC progression A total of 48 macro-dissected tissues including normal colon tissue, adenomas, carcinomas and metastases were collected by the Department of Pathology at the University of Virginia under the supervision of an experienced pathologist. DNA was extracted and run on IlluminaHumanMethylation450 Beadchip by Expression Analyisis.

Project description:Patients with high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) have experienced little improvement in overall survival, and standard treatment has not advanced beyond platinum-based combination chemotherapy, during the past 30 years. To understand the drivers of clinical phenotypes better, here we use whole-genome sequencing of tumour and germline DNA samples from 92 patients with primary refractory, resistant, sensitive and matched acquired resistant disease. We show that gene breakage commonly inactivates the tumour suppressors RB1, NF1, RAD51B and PTEN in HGSC, and contributes to acquired chemotherapy resistance. CCNE1 amplification was common in primary resistant and refractory disease. We observed several molecular events associated with acquired resistance, including multiple independent reversions of germline BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations in individual patients, loss of BRCA1 promoter methylation, an alteration in molecular subtype, and recurrent promoter fusion associated with overexpression of the drug efflux pump MDR1. Genomic DNA (500ng) was bisulfite converted using EZ DNA methylation Kit (Zimo Research) following the manufacturer’s protocol with modification for Illumina Infinium Methyaltion arrays. Samples were hybridized to Infinium Human Methylation 450K BeadChips (Illumina) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Arrays were scanned on Iscan (Illumina). Data was background corrected, normalized to internal controls and QC was performed at the probe and sample level. COMBAT was used to remove batch effects (Johnson et al., 2007).
