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

ABSTRACT: 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. Bisulphite converted DNA isolated from saliva of identical twin pairs were hybridised to the Illumina Infinium 27k Human Methylation Beadchip v1.2

Analysis of Promoter Methylation in Breast Cancer

Project description:Promoter methylation was assayed in a number of breast cancer and control normal samples along with the effects of 5'-aza-2'-deoxycytidine on breast cancer cell line transcriptomes. Aberrant promoter hypermethylation is frequently observed in cancer. The potential for this to contribute to tumour development depends on whether the genes affected are repressed because of their methylation. Many aberrantly methylated genes play important roles in development and are bivalently marked in ES cells suggesting that their aberrant methylation may reflect developmental processes. We investigated this possibility by analysing promoter methylation in 19 breast cancer cell lines, 10 normal tissues and 47 primary breast tumours. In order to determine the role of DNA methylation in silencing genes in breast cancer, we also examined the effects of the demethylating agent 5-aza-2?-deoxycytidine on gene expression in 3 breast cancer cell lines and HCT116 cells. Gene expression changes were also assayed in the DNA methyltransferase deficient HCT116 DKO cell line. Our findings implicate aberrant DNA methylation as a marker of cell lineage rather than tumour progression and suggest that, in most cases, it does not cause the repression with which it is associated. A number of human breast cancer cell lines, breast tumours and normal tissues were analysed on Illumina Infinium Methylation27 Beadchips to assay promoter methylation. Selected cell lines were analysed on expression arrays before and after treatment with 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine.

A promoter DNA demethylation landscape of human hematopoietic differentiation

Project description:Global mechanisms defining the gene expression programs specific for hematopoiesis are still not fully understood. Here, we show that promoter DNA demethylation is associated the activation of hematopoietic-specific genes. Using genome-wide promoter methylation arrays, we identified 694 hematopoietic-specific genes repressed by promoter DNA methylation in human ESCs and whose loss of methylation in hematopoietic can be associated with gene expression. The association between promoter methylation and gene expression was studied for many hematopoietic-specific genes including CD45, CD34, CD28, CD19, the T cell receptor (TCR), the MHC class II gene HLA-DR, perforin 1, and the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) and results indicated that DNA demethylation was not always sufficient for gene activation. Promoter demethylation occurred either early during embryonic development or later on during hematopoietic differentiation. Analysis of the genome-wide promoter methylation status of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) generated from somatic CD34+ HSPCs and differentiated derivatives from CD34+ HSPCs confirmed the role of DNA methylation in regulating the expression of genes of the hemato-immune system, and indicated that promoter methylation of these genes may be associated to stemness. Together, these data suggest that promoter DNA demethylation might play a role in the tissue/cell-specific genome-wide gene regulation within the hematopoietic compartment. Total DNA isolated by standard procedures from different primary samples corresponding to healthy patients and several cell lines.

Illumina GoldenGate Methylation array data for X-CGD patients and healthy controls

Project description:We report on the molecular and cellular events observed in two patients treated by gene therapy in 2004. After the initial resolution of bacterial and fungal infections, both patients exhibited silencing of transgene expression due to methylation of the viral promoter, and myelodysplasia with monosomy 7 as a result of insertional activation of EVI1. In line with this observation, a genome wide methylation analysis of 807 cancer related genes revealed a DNA methylation pattern characteristic of MDS and AML patients. Genomic DNA was prepared from peripheral blood cells of patient 1 (d 0 and month 27) and 25 healthy controls including 12 males and 13 females. The GoldenGate Methylation Cancer Panel I array was used to compare methylation degree in 1.505 CpG sites from promoter regions or the first exon of 807 mostly cancer related genes between the patient 1 (d 0 and month 27) and 25 healthy controls.
