Epigenetic and genetic changes during mouse hematopoietic stem cell aging [Bisulfite-Seq]

ABSTRACT: To investigate the global DNA methylation changes in mouse hematopoietic stem cell aging, we performed whole-genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS). We generated 1,494 million (4mo HSCs), and 1,493 million (24mo HSCs) raw reads; about 82.6% and 84.3%, respectively, were successfully aligned to either strand of the reference genome (mm9). Of all the cytosines present in the reference genome sequence, about 93% of Cs and 99% of CGs were covered in both datasets, with an average coverage of 46-fold (4mo) and 50-fold (24mo). In contrast to the age-associated hypomethylation observed in studies of somatic cells, mentioned above, HSCs showed an increase of methylation with age. The average methylation level over all 16 million covered CpGs increased from 83.5% in young (4mo) HSC to 84.6% in old (24mo) HSC. We observed a total of 448,166 differentially methylated CpGs (DMCs), defined as those having a 20% or more difference in methylation ratio, of which 38.5% (172,609) were hypomethylated (hypo-DMCs) and 61.5% (275,557) were hypermethylated (hyper-DMCs) with aging. For different genomic features, a slightly greater DNA methylation ratio increase was observed for the gene body, LINEs and SINEs, while CGIs and promoters showed balanced increases and decreases. Localization analysis of DMCs indicates that DNA encoding for ribosome RNA (rDNA) is primarily a hotspot for hypo-DMCs, while promoters without CpG islands, CpG island shores and LINE repetitive elements exhibit both hypo- and hyper-DMCs. Mouse hematopoietic stem cell DNA methylation profiles of 4 month and 24 month old WT mice were generated generated by deep sequencing, in duplicate, using Illumina Hiseq 2000.

To investigate the cell-intrinsic aging mechanisms that erode the function of somatic stem cells during aging, we have conducted a comprehensive integrated genomic analysis of young and aged cells. We profiled the transcriptome, DNA methylome, and histone modifications of young and old murine hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). Transcriptome analysis indicated reduced TGF-β signaling and perturbation of genes involved in HSC proliferation and differentiation. Aged HSCs exhibited broader H3K4me3 pea ...[more]

Project description:We conducted a genome-wide DNA methylation analysis in CD19+ B-cells from CLL patient and normal control samples using reduced representation bisulfite sequencing (RRBS). The methylation status of 1.8-2.3 million CpGs in the CLL genome was determined; about 45% of these CpGs were located in more than 23,000 CpG islands (CGIs). While global CpG methylation was similar between CLL and normal B-cells, 1764 gene promoters were identified as being differentially methylated between the two groups. Aberrant hypermethylation was found in all HOX gene clusters and a significant number of WNT signaling pathway genes. The genes that were frequently hypermethylated were typically associated with histone H3 lysine 27 tri-methylation or bivalent domains in normal B-cells. An additional 152 genes were found to be differentially methylated between normal naïve and memory B-cells. Of these 152 genes, 123 were hypomethylated in memory B-cells when compared to naïve B-cells. Overall, CLL B-cells had methylation patterns more similar to memory B-cells than naïve B-cells. Cluster analysis showed that the tissue-specific methylated genes separated CLL samples into two groups with differential ZAP70 methylation status. Hypomethylation occurred more frequently in the gene body including introns, exons, and 3'-UTRs in CLL. The hypomethylation in the NFATc1 P2 promoter and first intron correlated with up-regulation of both NFATc1 RNA and protein expression levels in CLL suggesting that an epigenetic mechanism is involved in the constitutive activation of NFAT activity in CLL cells. This comprehensive DNA methylation map will further our understanding of the epigenetic contribution to cellular dysfunction in CLL. To perform a genome-wide analysis of DNA methylation in CLL, we applied the Reduced Representation Bisulfite Sequencing (RRBS) to CD19+ B-cells isolated from normal control and CLL peripheral blood samples. The genomic DNA from each sample was digested with the methylation-insensitive restriction enzyme MspI (restriction site, CCGG) and ligated to Illumina sequencing adaptors containing methylated cytosine residues. The ligated MspI fragments were size-selected, treated with sodium bisulfite, and amplified by PCR. The PCR products were purified and sequenced using Illumina GAIIx sequencer with a read length of 52 or 76bp. 11 CLL B-cell samples, 3 normal control samples including one each of normal CD19+, CD19+/ IgD+ naïve, and CD19+/CD27+ memory B-cell sample and three CLL cell lines (Mec-1, Mec-2, and Wac-3) were used. We generated 20-30 million Illumina sequencing reads for each sample.
