Epigenome-wide analyis of neurobehavioral variation in preterm infants

ABSTRACT: Neonatal molecular biomarkers of neurobehavioral responses (measures of brain-behavior relationships), when combined with neurobehavioral performance measures, could lead to better predictions of long-term developmental outcomes. To this end, we examined whether variability in epigenomic measures from buccal cells were associated with neurobehavioral profiles in a cohort of infants born less than 30 weeks postmenstrual age (PMA) and participating in the Neonatal Neurobehavior and Outcomes in Very Preterm Infants (NOVI) Study (N=536). We tested whether epigenetic age, age acceleration, or DNA methylation (DNAm) levels at individual loci, measured via the Illumina EPIC microarray, differed between infants based on their NICU Network Neurobehavioral Scale (NNNS) profile classifications, ranging from most optimal to atypical. We adjusted for recruitment site, infant sex, PMA, and tissue heterogeneity. Infants with an optimally well-regulated NNNS profile had older epigenetic age compared to other NOVI infants (β1 = 0.201, p-value = 0.026), but no significant difference in age acceleration. In contrast, infants with an atypical NNNS profile had differential methylation at 29 CpG sites (FDR < 10%). Some of the genes annotated to these CpGs included PLA2G4E, TRIM9, GRIK3, and MACROD2, which have previously been associated with neurological structure and function, or with neurobehavioral disorders. These findings contribute to the existing evidence that neonatal epigenetic variations in buccal cells may be informative for infant neurobehavior.

Proteomic analysis identified age-associated prognostic biomarkers in pneumonia-derived pediatric sepsis

Project description:Pediatric sepsis is a leading cause of mortality in children across the world. Within pediatric sepsis, how developmental age-specific host immune response impact on the occurrence and development of pediatric sepsis is still unknown, especially between infants and toddlers, which were the major susceptible age groups in sepsis. Experimental design In this study, we applied a nested case-control study strategy and analyzed the plasma proteomes of pediatric sepsis patients between infants and toddlers in comparison to their age-matched controls respectively. Each age group consists of three subgroups with different outcomes. One hundred and ten plasma samples were pooled into 16 samples for quantitative identification by LC-MS/MS. Results It was totally quantified 677 proteins. In comparison to toddlers, infant sepsis patients were characteristic with dominant neutrophil-mediated defense, suppressed adaptive immunity and NK-mediated cytotoxicity. Besides, pentose phosphate pathway was more up-regulated in infants and associated with poor outcome. Moreover, combined Hp and Thbs1 with the AUC value of 0.958 (95%CI, 0.868, 1.000) was confirmed as potential infant-adapted prognostic marker of poor outcome in sepsis. Conclusion and clinical relevance Our proteomic analysis of age-associated pediatric sepsis combined with clinical laboratory data provided a comprehensive insight into the complex, multifactorial heterogeneous host response to pediatric sepsis and allowed identification of critical differences between infant and toddler sepsis. Moreover, we confirmed that combined Hp and Thbs1 is more infant-adapted and serves as a potential prognostic biomarker for poor outcome of infant sepsis, promoting the application of age-adapted precision medicine in pediatric sepsis.

caArray_EXP-520: Gene Expression Profiles Predictive of Outcome and Age in Infant Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia: a Children's Oncology Group Study

Project description:Gene expression profiling was performed on 97 cases of infant ALL from Children's Oncology Group Trial P9407. Statistical modeling of an outcome predictor revealed 3 genes highly predictive of event-free survival (EFS), beyond age and MLL status: FLT3, IRX2, and TACC2. Low FLT3 expression was found in a group of infants with excellent outcome (n = 11; 5-year EFS of 100%), whereas differential expression of IRX2 and TACC2 partitioned the remaining infants into 2 groups with significantly different survivals (5-year EFS of 16% vs 64%; P < .001). When infants with MLL-AFF1 were analyzed separately, a 7-gene classifier was developed that split them into 2 distinct groups with significantly different outcomes (5-year EFS of 20% vs 65%; P < .001). In this classifier, elevated expression of NEGR1 was associated with better EFS, whereas IRX2, EPS8, and TPD52 expression were correlated with worse outcome. This classifier also predicted EFS in an independent infant ALL cohort from the Interfant-99 trial. When evaluating expression profiles as a continuous variable relative to patient age, we further identified striking differences in profiles in infants less than or equal to 90 days of age and those more than 90 days of age. These age-related patterns suggest different mechanisms of leukemogenesis and may underlie the differential outcomes historically seen in these age groups.

Data in support of Circulating neutrophil extracellular trap components including cell-free DNA are associated with neonatal sepsis and necrotizing enterocolitis in newborn, immature infants, pigs and mice

Project description:Preterm infants are highly susceptible to late-onset sepsis (LOS) and necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) but specific biomarkers for diagnosis and effective treatment are lacking. Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are related to sepsis in adults but not investigated in infant conditions. This is the first proteome study to document that circulating NETs are involved in neonatal LOS and NEC. cfDNA and NET proteins may provide new potential diagnostic markers for these diseases.

Gene expression data from children diagnosed with ALL in vitro sensitive or resistant to prednisolone

Project description:Although the prognosis for childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) in general has improved tremendously over the last decades, the survival chances for infants (<1 year of age) with ALL remains poor. A major obstacle hampering successful treatment results in infant ALL is cellular resistance to several drugs currently used in the treatment of ALL, especially to prednisolone (or prednisone). Therefore we set out to search for genes differentially expressed between from infant (children <1 year of age) and non-infant (children >1 year of age) ALL samples either resistant or sensitive to prednisolone. The in vitro prednisolone response in primary infant and non-infant ALL samples was determined by 4-day cytotoxicity (MTT) assays. Patient samples were characterized as either sensitive or resistant based on the LC50 value (i.e. the concentration of prednisolone lethal to 50% of the leukemic cells). Prednisolone sensitivity was defined by LC50 values <0.1 ug/mL prednisolone, and prednisolone resistance by LC50 values >150 ug/mL. Samples showing intermediate in vitro prednisolone responses were excluded. In total 25 infant (<1 year of age) and 27 non-infant (>1 year of age) ALL samples were selected for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix HU133A microarrays. The obtained gene expression signatures were used to identify gene differentially expressed between prednisolone resistant and sensitive patients, in order to gain insights into the mechanism(s) underlying prednisolone resistance in infant and non-infant ALL.

E.faecalis regulate immune responses in HCT116 cells

Project description:Colonizing commensal bacteria after birth are required for the proper development of the gastrointestinal tract. It is believed that bacterial colonization pattern in neonatal gut affects gut barrier function and immune system maturation. Studies on the development of faecal flora microbiota in infants on various formula feeds showed that the neonatal gut was first colonized with enterococci followed by other flora microbiota such as Bifidobacterium in breast feeding infants. Intriguingly, Bjorksten group Other studies showed that Bbabies who developed allergy were less often colonized with Enterococcus during the first month of life as compared to healthy infants. A lot of Many studies have been done on conducted to elucidate how bifidobacteria or lactobacilli, some of which are considered probiotic, regulate infant gut immunity. However, much fewer studies have been focused on enterococi. In our study, we demonstrate that E. faecalis, isolated from healthy newborns, suppress inflammatory responses activated in vivo and in vitro. We found E. faecalis attenuates proinflammatory cytokine secretions, especially IL-8, through JNK and p38 signaling pathways. This finding shed light on how the first colonizer, E.faecalis, regulate inflammatory responses in the host. Samples are analysed using web-based GEArray Expression Analysis Suite

Acute murine cytomegalovirus infection boosts cell-type specific response and lipid metabolism changes in infant mice liver

Project description:Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection in infants cause severe diseases, such as neonatal hepatitis. However, the single-cell dimensional description of the immune cell alteration during the first virus exposure process in infants, remains poorly understood. The hepatocytes play an essential role in metabolic homeostasis and detoxification. The Concomitant Effects of CMV infection on liver lipid metabolism in infants are still unclear. Here, using single-cell RNA-sequencing, we found MCMV can infect most cell types of infant mice liver, changing the number of immune cells. MCMV infection increases proliferating CD8 effector T cells and a subset of Nos2+ monocytes, which may play important roles in the early anti-viral process. Furthermore, MCMV infection subvert the protein expression profile of lipid metabolism in hepatocytes. Overall, our data provide insights as to how the immune system response to MCMV infection during the early stage of infection, and the impact of infection on lipid metabolism in infant mice hepatocytes.
