Project description:We have discovered a striking connection between mitochondrial dysfunction and epigenomic instability, manifested by global biallelic DNA cytosine 5-methylation and loss of 5-hydroxymethycytosine within succinate dehydrogenase (SDH)-null gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) relative to those bearing KIT or PDGFRA tyrosine kinase driver mutations. The duality of Krebs versus kinase molecular and epigenomic profiles in GIST provides compelling evidence linking mitochondrial process to nuclear structure and function and underscores an essential role for succinate metabolism in the maintenance of epigenomic programming and tumor suppression. Bisulfite-converted DNA from 144 samples were analyzed with the Illumina GoldenGate Methylation Cancer Panel I array.

Project description:Monozygotic twins discordant for type 2 diabetes constitute an ideal model to study environmental contributions to type 2 diabetic traits. We aimed to examine whether global DNA methylation differences exist in major glucose metabolic tissues from twelve 53–80 year-old monozygotic discordant twin pairs. DNA methylation was measured by the Illumina HumanMethylation27 BeadChip in 22 (11 pairs) skeletal muscle and 10 (5 pairs) subcutaneous adipose tissue biopsies. No replicates were included.

Project description:Human aging implies many phenotypic modifications and an increased susceptibility to many common diseases, phenomena that cannot be fully explained by the constrained genetic setting. An alternative pathway that could explain the age-associated alterations is epigenetic drifts. To address this issue, we performed Whole Genome Bisulfite Sequencing (WGBS) of a newborn and of a centenarian. The centenarian DNA exhibited a significant loss in DNA methylation and a poor correlation in the methylation status of neighboring CpGs throughout the genome. From a gene-regulatory region standpoint, we observed that the DNA hypomethylation events occurred mainly at CpG-poor promoters and in tissue-specific genes, whereas a greater level of DNA methylation was observed in CpG island promoters. Most importantly, we extended the study to a larger cohort of newborn and nonagenarian samples using a 450,000 CpG-site DNA methylation microarray. The 450K DNA methylation approach enabled validation of the WGBS data and revealed additional age-related DNA methylation events. Interestingly, we also observed the DNA methylation fingerprint characteristic of a healthy aged cell in samples from patients with premature-aging disorders such as Hutchinson-Gilford progeria and Werner syndrome. Overall, we suggest that defects in the physiological DNA methylation profile contribute to the process of human aging. As the disease associated cells were immortalized B cells, the effect of EBV immortalization was determined in advance to the study using immortalized and naive B cells. DNA was quantified by Quant-iT PicoGreen dsDNA Reagent (Invitrogen) and the integrity was analyzed in a 1.3% agarose gel. Bisulfite conversion of 600 ng of each sample was perform according to the manufacturer's recommendation for Illumina Infinium Assay. Effective bisulphite conversion was checked for three controls that were converted simultaneously with the samples. 4 ul of bisulfite converted DNA were used to hybridize on Infinium HumanMethylation 450 BeadChip, following Illumina Infinium HD Methylation protocol. Chip analysis was performed using Illumina HiScan SQ fluorescent scanner. The intensities of the images are extracted using GenomeStudio (2010.3) Methylation module (1.8.5) software. Methylation score of each CpG is represented as beta value.

Project description:We broadly profiled DNA methylation in breast cancers (n=351) and benign parenchyma (n=47) for correspondence with disease phenotype using formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) diagnostic surgical pathology specimens. Exploratory analysis revealed a distinctive primary invasive carcinoma subclass featuring extreme global methylation deviation. Subsequently we tested the correlation between methylation remodeling pervasiveness and malignant biology. A methyl deviation index (MDI) was calculated for each lesion relative to terminal ductal-lobular unit (TDLU) baseline, and group comparisons revealed that high-grade, short-survival ER+ cancers manifest significantly higher MDI than low-grade, long-survival ER+ cancers. In contrast, ER- cancers display significantly lower MDI, revealing a striking epigenomic distinction between cancer hormone receptor subtypes. Kaplan-Meier survival curves of MDI-based risk classes showed significant divergence between low- and high-risk groups. MDI showed superior prognostic performance to crude methylation levels, and MDI retained prognostic significance (p<0.01) in Cox multivariate analysis including clinical stage and pathologic grade. Most MDI targets individually are significant markers of ER+ cancer survival. Lymphoid and mesenchymal indices were not substantially different between ER+ and ER- groups, and do not explain MDI dichotomy. However, mesenchymal index was associated with ER+ cancer survival, and high lymphoid indices with medullary carcinoma. Finally, comparison between metastases and primaries suggests methylation patterns are established early and maintained through disease progression for both ER+ and ER- tumors. Bisulfite-converted DNA from 397 lesions were analyzed with the Illumina GoldenGate Methylation Cancer Panel I array.

Project description:TET2 is a close relative of TET1, an enzyme that converts 5-methylcytosine (5mC) to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) in DNA. The gene encoding TET2 resides at chromosome 4q24, in a region showing recurrent microdeletions and copy-neutral loss of heterozygosity (CN-LOH) in patients with diverse myeloid malignancies. Somatic TET2 mutations are frequently observed in myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN), MDS/MPN overlap syndromes including chronic myelomonocytic leukaemia (CMML), acute myeloid leukaemias (AML) and secondary AML (sAML). We show here that TET2 mutations associated with myeloid malignancies compromise catalytic activity. Bone marrow samples from patients with TET2 mutations displayed uniformly low levels of 5hmC in genomic DNA compared to bone marrow samples from healthy controls. Moreover, small hairpin RNA (shRNA)-mediated depletion of Tet2 in mouse haematopoietic precursors skewed their differentiation towards monocyte/macrophage lineages in culture. There was no significant difference in DNA methylation between bone marrow samples from patients with high 5hmC versus healthy controls, but samples from patients with low 5hmC showed hypomethylation relative to controls at the majority of differentially methylated CpG sites. Our results demonstrate that Tet2 is important for normal myelopoiesis, and suggest that disruption of TET2 enzymatic activity favours myeloid tumorigenesis. Measurement of 5hmC levels in myeloid malignancies may prove valuable as a diagnostic and prognostic tool, to tailor therapies and assess responses to anticancer drugs. Genome wide DNA methylation profiling of patients samples with various myeloid malignancies and diffrential levels of 5hmC.The Illumina Infinium 27k Human DNA methylation Beadchip v1.2 was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles across approximately 27,000 CpGs in bone marrow samples and occasionally peripheral blood samples. Samples included 28 control healthy bone marrows, 29 patients samples with low 5hmC levels (7 patients with wild-type TET2 and 22 mutant TET2) and 24 with high levels of 5hmC (22 with wild-type TET2 and 2 mutant TET2). Bisulphite converted DNA from 81 samples was hybridised to the Illumina Infinium 27k Human Methylation Beadchip v1.2
