Epigenome analysis of female identical twins

Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiling of blood samples from eight female identical twins of Han Chinese for forensic age prediction, age 21 to 32. The Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450 BeadChip was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles across approximately 485,000 CpGs at a single-nucleotide resolution. Samples included 8 pairs of identical female twins of Han Chinese.

DNA methylation profiling in breast cancer discordant identical twins

Project description:We obtained a comprehensive DNA methylation profile of 15 breast cancer discordant twins, using the high resolution Infinium HumanMethylation450 BeadChip platform (450K, Illumina), previously established to reliably detect methylation changes of more than 450,000 CpG sites. To provide insight into the temporal and causal relationships and predictive potential, samples from breast cancer patients before (7) and after diagnosis (8) were also analyzed. Using whole blood from 15 twin pairs discordant for breast cancer and high-resolution (450k) DNA methylation analysis we identified 403 differentially methylated CpG sites including known and novel potential breast cancer genes.

Circulating microRNAs and life expectancy among identical twins

Project description:Objective: To characterize miRNAs in 41-year archived plasma in relation to life expectancy independent of genes. Method: Plasma miRNAs from nine identical male twins were profiled using next-generation sequencing. Results: The average absolute difference in the minimum life expectancy was 9.68 years. Intra-class correlation coefficients were above 0.4 for 50% of miRNAs. Comparing deceased twins with their alive co-twin brothers, the concentrations were increased for 34 but decreased for 30 miRNAs. Conclusion: Identical twins discordant in life expectancy were unlike in the majority of miRNAs, suggesting that environmental factors are pivotal in miRNAs related to life expectancy.

Epigenome analysis of male identical twin pairs discordant for sexual orientation, age 21 to 55.

Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiling of saliva samples from male identical twins discordant for sexual orientation, age 21 to 55. The Illumina Infinium 27k Human DNA methylation Beadchip v1.2 was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles across approximately 27,000 CpGs in bisulfite converted DNA. Samples included 34 pairs of identical twins and one set of identical triplets, and 13 hybridisations were technical replicates of a selection of those samples.

DNA methylome profiling of blood to identify individuals in a pair of monozygotic twins

Project description:Short tandem repeat (STR) markers cannot be used to distinguish between genetically identical monozygotic (MZ) twins, causing problems in a case with an MZ twin as a suspect. Many studies have shown that in older MZ twins, there are significant differences in overall content and genomic distribution of methylation
