DNA methylation profiling of whole blood and reconstructed mixtures of purified leukocytes isolated from human adult blood

ABSTRACT: Confounding due to cellular heterogeneity represents one of the foremost challenges currently facing Epigenome-Wide Association Studies (EWAS). Statistical methods leveraging the tissue-specificity of DNA methylation for deconvoluting the cellular mixture of heterogeneous biospecimens such as whole blood, offer a promising solution. However, their performance depends entirely on the library of DNA methylation markers being used as the basis for deconvolution. The objective of this study was to train and validate an algorithm for the identification of optimal DNA methylation libraries for the deconvolution of adult human whole blood.

DNA methylation profiling of whole blood and reconstructed mixtures of purified leukocytes isolated from human adult blood

Project description:Confounding due to cellular heterogeneity represents one of the foremost challenges currently facing Epigenome-Wide Association Studies (EWAS). Statistical methods leveraging the tissue-specificity of DNA methylation for deconvoluting the cellular mixture of heterogeneous biospecimens such as whole blood, offer a promising solution. However, their performance depends entirely on the library of DNA methylation markers being used as the basis for deconvolution. The objective of this study was to train and validate an algorithm for the identification of optimal DNA methylation libraries for the deconvolution of adult human whole blood. Purified granulocytes, monocytes, CD4T, CD8T, natural killer cells, and B cells from normal human subjects were purchased from AllCells LLC (Emeryville, CA). DNA extracted from purified leukocyte subtypes were mixed in predetermined proportions to reconstruct two distinct sets of white blood cell (WBC) mixtures, each consisting of six samples. An additional six whole blood (WB) samples from disease-free adult donors with available immune cell profiling data from flow cytometry were purchased from All-Cells LLC and were included in this investigation. All DNA samples were bisulfite modified using the Zymo EZ DNA Methylation kit (Irvine, CA) and profiled for DNA methylation using the Illumina HumanMethylation450 array platform.

Umbilical cord blood artificial mixtures validation dataset: An Enhanced DNA Methylation Library for Deconvoluting Peripheral Blood

Project description:DNA methylation microarrays have been extensively used for understanding cell type composition in complex tissue samples. Here we expand on existing libraries for reference-based deconvolution of blood DNA methylation data assayed using the Illumina HumanMethylationEPIC array to include 12 different leukocyte subtypes (neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils, monocytes, B cells naïve and memory, CD4+ and CD8+ naïve and memory cells, natural killers, and T regulatory cells). Application of the IDOL algorithm for identifying optimal libraries for the deconvolution of blood-derived DNA methylation data led to to a library consisting of 1200 CpGs. The accuracy of deconvolution estimates obtained using our IDOL-optimized library was evaluated using artificial mixtures with known cellular composition and in samples were both whole-blood DNA methylation data and FACS information were available. We further showcase potential applications of our expanded library using publicly available cancer, aging, and autoimmune disease data sets.

Deconvolution of whole blood DNA methylomes reveals immune cell type-specific differential methylation in Multiple Sclerosis

Project description:Whole blood is a highly convenient and informative tissue from which to sample DNA and RNA in epigenomic and functional genomic studies, but it is comprised of multiple distinct cell types and this complexity significantly impairs our ability to interpret downstream differential methylation and/or differential expression results. In this multiple sclerosis (MS)-focused study we utilised an application of current statistical deconvolution methods to interrogate whole blood DNA methylation data thereby enabling the methylome of several immune cell types to be analysed independently. Methylome profiling on cell type-purified blood samples revealed optimal CpG sets for use as robust immune cell markers in the statistical deconvolution process. We show that it is possible to identify differentially methylated (DM) loci in a cell type specific manner using statistical deconvolution. Finally, we demonstrate that deconvolution improved the biological relevance and interpretability of our DM results, significantly enhancing concordance of the identified DM loci with loci previously shown to be genetically or epigenetically associated with MS.
