Project description:Uterine leiomyomas, or fibroids, represent the most common benign tumor of the female reproductive tract. Fibroids become symptomatic in 30% of all women and up to 70% of African American women of reproductive age. Epigenetic dysregulation of individual genes has been demonstrated in leiomyoma cells; however, the in vivo genome-wide distribution of such epigenetic abnormalities, however, remains unknown. Principal Findings: We characterized and compared genome-wide DNA methylation and mRNA expression profiles in uterine leiomyoma and matched adjacent normal myometrial tissues from 18 African-American women. We found 55 genes with differential promoter methylation and concominant differences in mRNA expression in uterine leiomyoma versus normal myometrium. Eighty percent of the identified genes showed an inverse relationship DNA methylation status and mRNA expression in uterine leiomyoma tissues, and the majority of genes (62%) displayed hypermethylation associated with gene silencing. We selected two genes, the known tumor suppressors KLF11 and DLEC1, and verified promoter hypermethylation and mRNA repression using bisulfite sequencing and real-time PCR. Incubation of primary leiomyoma smooth muscle cells with a DNA methyltransferase inhibitor restored KLF11 and DLEC1 mRNA levels.

Project description:Profiles of genome-wide DNA methylation were investigated in leiomyomas and in myometrium with and without leiomyomas. Profiles of DNA methylation in the myometrium with and without leiomyomas were quite similar while those in leiomyomas were distinct. Total RNA from the three uterine leiomyoma, three myometrium with leiomyoma and three myometrium without leiomyoma were analyzed with the Affymetrix GeneChip Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Array.

Bisulphite converted DNA from the three uterine leiomyoma, three myometrium with leiomyoma and three myometrium without leiomyoma were hybridised to the Illumina infinium HumanMethylation450 BeadChip.

Project description:Global protein coding gene and miRNA expression profiling studies in uterine leiomyoma showed their aberrant expression and involvement in the pathogenesis of uterine leiomyoma. But the global expression patterns and potential clinical value of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) in uterine leiomyoma have not been explored.In this study, we performed lncRNA expression profiles analysis of uterine leiomyoma using microarray(Arraystar Human LncRNA Array v2.0) to evaluate the genome-wide expression of lncRNAs and mRNAs and their potential role in the pathogenesis of uterine leiomyoma.

Project description:Gene methylation profiling of immortalized human mesenchymal stem cells comparing HPV E6/E7-transfected MSCs cells with human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT)- and HPV E6/E7-transfected MSCs. hTERT may increase gene methylation in MSCs. Goal was to determine the effects of different transfected genes on global gene methylation in MSCs.
