Project description:Melanoma is one of the most aggressive and treatment-resistant cancers. It represents the most life-threatening neoplasm of the skin, and its incidence has been increasing for the last three decades. Melanoma evolves from the local transformation of melanocytes to primary tumors, which can metastasize to multiple organs. Brain metastases represent one of the most significant causes of death in cutaneous melanoma patients. Despite aggressive multi-modality threapy, patients with melanoma brain metastasis have a median survival of less than a year, with a majority of these patients dying as a result of their intracranial disease. We aimed to find brain metastasis-specific molecular markers. To identify alterations in DNA methylation related to brain metastasis, we used Illumina 450K BeadChips to assess differentially methylated regions in melanocytes, primary melanomas, lymph node metastases, and brain metastases. Bisulphite-converted DNA from 40 specimens was hybridised to the Illumina Infinium 450k Human Methylation BeadChip.

Project description:DNA methylation predominantly occurs at CG dinucleotides in vertebrate genomes, however, non-CG methylation (mCH) is also detectable in vertebrate tissues, most notably in the nervous system. In mammalian brains, it is well established that: i) mCH is targeted to CAC trinucleotides by DNMT3A, ii) enriched in gene bodies and repetitive elements, and iii) associated with transcriptional repression. However, the possible conservation of these mCH features in zebrafish is largely unexplored and has yet to be functionally demonstrated. In this study, we analyse the transcriptomes (RNA-seq) and methylome (RRBS) of developing zebrafish larvae (1-6 weeks) and adult brain (6 month). We additionally elucidate a role for dnmt3aa/dnmt3ab in mCH deposition via CRISP/CAS9 KO and WGBS of 4 week old brains

Project description:We report a reprogrammable mouse system in which reprogramming factor expression in vivo can be controlled temporally by treatment with doxycycline (Dox). Transient expression of reprogramming factors in vivo results in tumor development in various tissues, consisting of undifferentiated dysplastic cells. We analyzed the kidney tumors developed in reprogrammable mice for global gene expressions and DNA methylations. Reprogrammable mice at 4 weeks of age were treated with Dox for 7 days followed by the withdrawal. Seven days after the withdrawal, kidney tumors were analyzed for gene expressions and DNA methylations with microarray and RRBS method, respectively. Normal kidney tissue at the same age and ES cells were analyzed as controls. To examine the early changes of gene expressions, transgene-expressing kidney cells were FACS sorted and they are utilized for microarray analysis. Primary liver tumors in reprogrammable mice and transplanted secondary kidney tumors in the subcutaneous tissues of immnodeficient mice were also analyzed for gene expressions.

Project description:Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory immune-mediated disorder affecting the skin and other organs including joints. Over 1,300 transcripts are altered in psoriatic involved skin compared to normal skin. Global epigenetic profiles of psoriatic skin have not been described. Here we describe the first genome-wide study of altered CpG methylation in psoriatic skin. We determined the methylation levels at 27,578 CpG sites in skin samples from individuals with psoriasis (12 involved, 8 uninvolved) and 10 unaffected individuals. CpG methylation of involved skin differed from normal skin at 1,108 sites. Twelve mapped to the epidermal differentiation complex, upstream or within genes that are highly up-regulated in psoriasis. Hierarchical clustering of 50 of the top differentially methylated (DM) sites separated psoriatic from normal skin samples. CpG sites where methylation was correlated with gene expression are reported. Sites with inverse correlations between methylation and nearby gene expression include those of KYNU, OAS2, S100A12, and SERPINB3, whose strong transcriptional up-regulation are important discriminators of psoriasis. We observed intrinsic epigenetic differences in uninvolved skin. Pyrosequencing of bisulfite-treated DNA from skin biopsies at three DM loci confirmed earlier findings and revealed a reversion of methylation levels towards the non-psoriatic state after one month of anti-TNF-a therapy. Control n=8 (NN), psoriasis involved n = 19 (PP), psoriasis uninvolved n=8 (PN). Hybridized to Illumina Human 27k methylation array. Paired samples are as follows: PN1 and PP1 PN2 and PP2 PN3 and PP3 PN4 and PP4 PN5 and PP5 PN6 and PP6 PN7 and PP7 PN8 and PP8

Project description:Here we used Illumina NGS for high-throughput profiling of the DNA methylome(ERRBS) and hydroxymethylome(hMe-Seal) of primary tumor samples with Acute Myeloid Leukemia(AML). The data can be used to compare hydroxymethylation and methylation patterns from different AML subtypes and normal bone marrow samples. We have sequenced 4 subtypes of AML with hydroxymethylation decrease and 1 subtype with no decrease. We have sequenced 2-5 primary tumor samples for each subtype, and comprated the epigenomic profiles ( ERRBS and hMe-Seal ) of hydroxymethylation deficient subtypes to the control subtype and normal bone marrow samples.

Project description:DNA methylation of C5-cytosine (5mC) in the mammalian genome is a key epigenetic event that is critical for various cellular processes. However, how the genome-wide 5mC pattern is dynamically regulated remains a fundamental question in epigenetic biology. The TET family of 5mC hydroxylases, which convert 5mC to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC), have provided a new potential mechanism for the dynamic regulation of DNA methylation. The extent to which individual Tet family members contribute to the genome-wide 5mC and 5hmC patterns and associated gene network remains largely unknown. Here we report genome-wide mapping of Tet1 and 5hmC in mESCs and reveal a mechanism of action by which Tet1 controls 5hmC and 5mC levels in mESCs. In combination with microarray and mRNA-seq expression profiling, we identify a comprehensive yet intricate gene network influenced by Tet1. We propose a model whereby Tet1 controls DNA methylation both by binding to CpG-rich regions to prevent unwanted DNA methyltransferase activity, and by converting the existing 5mC to 5hmC through its enzymatic activity. This Tet1-mediated antagonism of CpG methylation imparts differential maintenance of DNA methylation status at Tet1 target loci, thereby providing a new regulatory mechanism for establishing the epigenetic landscape of mESCs, which ultimately contributes to mESC differentiation and the onset of embryonic development. To determine the genome-wide DNA methylation changes caused by Tet1 depletion in mouse ES cells. Tet1 protein was depleted by specific siRNA treatment. The DNA methylation levels in control and Tet1 siRNA-transfected ES cells were determined by targeted bisulfite sequencing.

Project description:Colorectal tumorigenesis proceedes through well defined clinical stages assoicated with charateristic mutations. Besides genetic alterations, epi-driver genes that are aberrantly expressed in cancers in a fashion that confers a seletive growth advantage can also contribute to tumor evolution. To gain a global view of methylation patterns in normal and maliganant colorectal epithelia, we performed genome-wide DNA methylation analysis on DNAs from 48 fresh frozen CRC samples at different stages of CRC progression. We used IlluminaHumanMethylation450 Beadchip to get a broad view of genome-wide DNA methylationdata during CRC progression and identified significantly differentially methylated genes during CRC progression A total of 48 macro-dissected tissues including normal colon tissue, adenomas, carcinomas and metastases were collected by the Department of Pathology at the University of Virginia under the supervision of an experienced pathologist. DNA was extracted and run on IlluminaHumanMethylation450 Beadchip by Expression Analyisis.
