Gender-specific post-natal demethylation and establishment of epigenetic memory

ABSTRACT: DNA methylation patterns are set up in a relatively fixed programmed manner during normal embryonic development and are then stably maintained. Using genome-wide analysis, we have discovered a postnatal pathway involving gender-specific demethylation that occurs exclusively in the male liver. This demodification is programmed to take place at tissue-specific enhancer sequences, and our data show that the methylation state at these loci is associated with and appears to play a role in the transcriptional regulation of nearby genes. This process is mediated by the secretion of testosterone at the time of sexual maturity, but the resulting methylation profile is stable and therefore can serve as an epigenetic memory even in the absence of this inducer. These findings add a new dimension to our understanding of the role of DNA methylation in vivo and provide the foundations for deciphering how environment can impact on the epigenetic regulation of genes, in general. DNA methylation profile of male and female mouse and Human tissues was generated using the RRBS protocol followed by deep sequncing. Whole genome DNA methylation profile using deep sequencing was genereted for male and female mouse tissues. RNAseq was performed on male and female mouse tissues.

DNA methylation changes induced by overexpression of IDH1mut or treatment with 2HG in the sorted mouse bone marrow cells

Project description:Mutations in the enzymes IDH1 and IDH2 have been identified in a wide variety of tumors like glioma, chondrosarcoma, thyroid cancer, lymphoma, melanoma, and in acute myeloid leukemia. Mutated IDH1/2 produces the metabolite 2-hydroxyglutarate (2HG), which interferes with epigenetic regulation of gene expression, and thus may promote tumorigenesis. HoxA9 immortalised bone marrow cells from C57BJ/6 mice were tranduced with either empty vector or pSF91-IDH1wt-IRES-EGFP, or pSF91-IDH1mut-IRES-GFP and transplanted in irradiated recipient mice. Alternatively, HoxA9 immortalised cells transduced with empty vector transplanted mice were treated with R-2HG at dose of 1mg/day for four weeks. Four weeks after transplantation/treatment GFP+ cells were sorted from mouse bone marrow, from which total DNA was extracted and subjected to Reduced Representation Bisulfite Sequencing (RRBS) to determine the genome-wide methylation signature.

DNA methylation analysis of porcine mammary epithelial cells challenged with Escherichia coli

Project description:Epigenetic changes such as DNA methylations regulate gene expression patterns in response to environmental cues including infections. Microbial infections induced DNA methylation may play a potential role in modulating host-immune response. In the present study, we sought to determine DNA methylation changes induced by the mastitis causing Escherichia coli (E coli) in porcine mammary epithelial cells (PMEC). Two time points (3hr and 24 hr) were selected based on the specific transcriptomic changes as early and late phase immune responses. Genome-wide methylation information was obtained to identify significant differential methylation patterns in E coli infected PMEC.

Transcriptome profiling of wild type and Tet1-null primordial germ cells (PGC) by Bisulfite-seq

Project description:Purpose: To investigate the effect of Tet1 depletion on global DNA methylation, we performed whole-genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS). Methods: Starting with as little as 1400-5251 manually micro-dissected PGCs, we used an ultra-low input method, Tn5mC-seq. Results: We generated 945 million reads for Tet1Gt/Gt PGCs and 302 million reads for wild-type PGCs. We obtained 14-16 million CpG sites per genotype at 1.76-2.66x genome coverage, which enables a comprehensive view of genome-wide DNA methylation patterns in E13.5 PGCs. PGCs are almost completely unmethylated genome-wide. Loss of Tet1 led to a subtle increase of methylation level in various genomic elements including promoters, exons, introns and repetitive elements in Tet1Gt/Gt PGCs (p<0.01). Local analysis identified 4,337 differentially methylated regions (DMRs) between Tet1-/- PGCs and wild-type cells. These DMRs are associated with 5,261 genes, among which 271 genes also exhibited differential gene expression and enriched for the cell cycle pathway (FDR=0.02). Conclusions: This result revealed that demethylation of certain set of cell cycle genes is largely abolished in the Tet1-/- PGCs. Genome-wide methylation profiles of primordial germ cells derived from the wild type (WT) and Tet1-null female embryos at E13.5 were generated by whole genome bisulfite sequencing using Illumina Hiseq.

Single base resolution analysis of 5-formyl and 5-carboxyl cytosine reveals the actual promoter DNA methylation dynamics in embryonic stem cells [RRBS]

Project description:DNA methylation is catalysed by DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) and is necessary for a correct embryonic development. On the other hand, the DNA demethylation is mediated by the Ten Eleven Translocation (Tet) proteins through oxidation of 5-methyl cytosine (5mC) to 5-hydroxyl (5hmC), 5-formyl (5fC) and 5-carboxyl (5caC) cytosine, and by the Thymine-DNA glycosylase (TDG) that excises the 5fC and 5caC. In embryonic stem cells (ESCs), gene promoters are maintained in an hypomethylated state, but the dynamics of this phenomenon still remains unknown. Here we present a genome-wide approach, named methylation-assisted bisulfite sequencing (MAB-Seq) that enables single-base resolution mapping of 5fC and 5caC and measuring of their relative abundance. Application of this method to mouse ESCs exposed the presence of 5fcaC residues on the hypomethylated promoters of the expressed genes, revealing an active DNA demethylation mechanism since the loss of TDG leads to an increase of 5fC/5caC. We also show that TDG is actually bound on these regions and that co-localizes and interacts with Tet1. We moreover demonstrate, by reduced representation of bisulfite sequencing (RRBS), that active promoters are actually demethylated by a Tet-dependent mechanism and that Dnmt1 and Dnmt3a are responsible of this DNA methylation. Our work shows the whole-genome map of 5fC and 5caC at single base resolution in ESCs, it demonstrates in detail the DNA methylation dynamics occurring on expressed gene promoters and identifies the key players of this mechanism. Furthermore, we provide a new tool (MAB-Seq) that can be broadly used in all biological contexts for epigenetics study involving identification and quantification of 5fC and 5caC at single base resolution.

DNA methylation analysis by RRBS in germ cells of mice exposed to Vinclozolin

Project description:We provide quantitative maps of cytosine methylation at single base resolution by RRBS in E13.5 primordial germ cells and adult sperm purified from mice exposed to Vinclozolin. Pregnant F0 female mice were exposed to two doses (a low dose VD1=1 mg/kg bw/d and a high dose VD2=100mg/kg bw/d) of Vinclozolin in the drinking water during pregnancy. We isolated primordial germ cells at E13.5 and mature sperm from adult F1 males obtained from control and exposed mothers. For PGCs, we sequenced RRBS libraries prepared from one pool isolated from F1 embryos exposed to the low dose, one pool isolated from F1 embryos exposed to the high dose, and two control pools isolated from unexposed embryos. For sperm, we sequenced three RRBS libraries prepared from a pool of sperm isolated from F1 males exposed to the high dose, and five RRBS libraries prepared from control pools isolated from unexposed animals.

Perturbed adult sperm methylome after in utero undernutrition is associated with transmission of metabolic disease

Project description:The pre and postnatal environment can affect both an individual’s risk of adult onset metabolic disease and that of subsequent generations. Although animal models and epidemiological data implicate epigenetic inheritance, little is known of the mechanisms involved. In a robust intergenerational model of developmental programming we demonstrate that the nutritional environment experienced in utero by F1 generation embryos alters the DNA methylome of the F1 adult male germ line in a locus-specific manner, without affecting overall methylation levels. Differentially methylated regions are mostly hypomethylated and are enriched in nucleosome retaining regions in adult sperm. A substantial fraction is resistant to early embryo methylation reprogramming, and thus have the potential to alter F2 generation development. Altered expression of transcripts neighbouring differentially methylated regions are evident in tissues of F2 offspring despite lack of persistence of differential methylation. Transmitted methylation variation in the germline at key regulatory loci may therefore contribute to the development of metabolic disease in the subsequent generation. 2 biological replicates of pooled sperm samples for each control (C) or undernutrition (UN) model
