850k methylationarray of human keratinocytes during calcium-induced differentiation

ABSTRACT: To further investigate the question of cell-of-origin in keratinocyte cancer, an epigenetic clock was trained to learn and predict keratinocyte differentiation. Human EpSCs from skin biopsies were isolated and differentiation induced with calcium. Three replicates each were analyzed at the beginning of the experiment (0 h), as well as after 72 h and 96 h. The epigenetic clock trained on these replicates was further applied to single cell keratinocytes to predict their differentiation status.

Differentiation-related epigenomic changes define clinically distinct keratinocyte cancer subclasses

Project description:Keratinocyte cancers (KC) are the most prevalent malignancies in fair-skinned populations, posing a significant medical and economic burden to health systems. KC originate in the epidermis and mainly comprise basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC). Here, we combined single-cell transcriptomics, methylomics and multi-omics to investigate the epigenomic dynamics during epidermal differentiation. We identified ~4,000 differentially accessible regions between undifferentiated and differentiated keratinocytes, corresponding to regulatory regions associated with key transcription factors. DNA methylation at these regions defined AK/cSCC subtypes with epidermal stem cell- or keratinocyte-like features. Using cell type deconvolution tools and integration of bulk and single-cell methylomes, we demonstrate that these subclasses are consistent with distinct cells-of-origin. Further characterization of the subclasses with an epigenetic mitotic-like clock, and the study of other unstratified KC entities uncovered distinct phenotypic and clinical features for the subclasses, linking invasive and metastatic KC cases with undifferentiated cells-of-origin. Our study provides a thorough characterization of the epigenomic dynamics underlying human keratinocyte differentiation and uncovers novel links between KC cells-of-origin and their prognosis

Methylation profiling identifies two subclasses of squamous cell carcinoma related to distinct cell types of origin

Project description:Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) is the second most common skin cancer type and arises from keratinocytes. Most cSCC progress from a UV-induced precancerous lesion termed actinic keratosis (AK). Despite various efforts to characterize these lesions molecularly, the etiology of AK and its progression to cSCC remain only partially understood. Here we have used Infinium MethylationEPIC BeadChips to interrogate the DNA methylation status of about 850.000 CpGs in epidermal preparations from healthy skin, AK and cSCC. Importantly, we found that the premalignant AK samples displayed classical features of cancer methylomes and were highly similar to cSCC methylomes. Further analysis identified typical features of stem cell methylomes, such as a reduced DNA methylation age, non-CpG methylation and stem cell-related keratin and enhancer methylation patterns. Interestingly, this signature was detected only in one half of the AK and cSCC samples, while the other half showed methylation patterns that were more closely related to the control epidermis. These findings suggest the existence of two distinct subclasses of AK and cSCC that originate from distinct keratinocyte differentiation stages.

Global gene expression in patient keratinocytes and patient-specific iPS-derived keratinocytes

Project description:Patients with recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB) lack functional Type VII collagen and suffer severe blistering and chronic wounds that ultimately lead to infection and development of lethal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). The discovery of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and the ability to edit the genome bring the possibility to provide definitive genetic therapy through corrected autologous tissues. We have formed a multidisciplinary team with the ultimate goal to develop an iPSC-based therapy for RDEB. Here, we present a clinical protocol that generates autologous, corrected epithelial keratinocyte sheets with the COL7A1 gene mutation corrected for grafting on to patients. We demonstrate the utility of sequential reprogramming and novel adenovirus-associated viral genome editing to generate corrected iPSC banks. iPSC-derived keratinocytes were produced with minimal heterogeneity and secreted wild-type collagen VII, resulting in stratified epidermis in vitro and in vivo in mice. Sequencing of corrected cell lines prior to tissue formation revealed heterogeneity of SCC-predisposing mutations, allowing us to select COL7A1 corrected banks with minimal mutational burden for downstream epidermis production. Our results provide a first clinical platform to use iPSCs in the treatment of debilitating genodermatoses. Microarray analysis of iPS-derived keratinocytes from two RDEB patients (iPS-K1 and iPS-K3), corresponding patient keratinocytes (AHK1 and AHK2), normal human keratinocytes (NHK), as well as H9 human embryonic stem cells (hESC - H9). All samples were analyzed in duplicate and differential gene expression was measured relative to H9.

A CellAge epigenetic clock for expedited discovery of anti-ageing compounds in vitro

Project description:We aim to improve anti-ageing drug discovery, currently achieved through laborious and lengthy longevity analysis. Recent studies demonstrated that the most accurate molecular method to measure human age is based on CpG methylation profiles, as exemplified by several epigenetics clocks that can accurately predict an individual’s age. Here, we developed CellAge, a new epigenetic clock that measures subtle ageing changes in primary human cells in vitro. As such it provides a unique tool to measure effects of relatively short pharmacological treatments on ageing. We validated our CellAge clock against known longevity drugs such as rapamycin and trametinib. Moreover, we uncovered novel anti-ageing drugs, torin2 and Dactolisib (BEZ-235), demonstrating the value of our approach as a screening and discovery platform for anti-ageing strategies. CellAge outperforms other epigenetic clocks in measuring subtle ageing changes in primary human cells in culture. The tested drug treatments reduced senescence and other ageing markers, further consolidating our approach as a screening platform. Finally, we showed that the novel anti-ageing drugs we uncovered in vitro, indeed increased longevity in vivo. Our method expands the scope of CpG methylation profiling from measuring human chronological and biological age from human samples in years, to accurately and rapidly detecting anti-ageing potential of drugs using human cells in vitro, providing a novel accelerated discovery platform to test sought after geroprotectors.

Genomic and epigenomic profiling of GATA2 deficiency reveals aberrant hypermethylation pattern in Bone Marrow and Peripheral Blood

Project description:The majority (72%) of adolescents with myelodysplastic syndrome and monosomy 7 carry an underlying GATA2 deficiency. Nowadays, chemotherapy and allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) are the only cure, pointing out the urgent need to develop reliable predictive tools. Familial cases carrying the same mutation in the GATA2 gene develop the disease at different age. The trigger of the disease is still unknown. Therefore, it is needed to understand the genetic mechanisms (mutations) and epigenetic mechanism, such as, DNA methylation, a cellular mechanism to control gene expression. Abnormal DNA methylation has been linked to several adverse outcomes, including human diseases. In this study, we deeply characterized 20 Spanish GATA2 deficient patients; study the presence of secondary mutations, clinical phenotype and DNA methylation. We have found that the most frequent secondary mutations are in STAG2 and ASXL1 genes, detected in 30% and 20% of the patients, respectively, a similar ratio has been described in a bigger cohort, showing that our 20-patient cohort is representative of the GATA2 deficiency scenario. For the first time, we found a specific hypermethylated signature in GATA2 patients, opening a novel point of view in the GATA2-patient diagnostic and facilitating the risk estimation of themselves. Furthermore, whether the methylation profiling is accurate enough, it will be useful to predict the onset of the disease progression.

Investigating epigenetic effects of activation-induced deaminase in chronic lymphocytic leukemia

Project description:Activation induced deaminase (AID) has two distinct and well defined roles, both relying on its deoxycytidine (dC) deaminating function: one as a DNA mutator and another in DNA demethylation. In chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), AID was previously shown to be an independent negative prognostic factor. While there is substantial impact on DNA mutations, effects of AID on gene expression by promoter demethylation of disease related target genes in leukemia has not been addressed. To shed light on this question, we aimed at determining genome wide methylation changes as well as gene expression changes in response to AID expression in CLL. Although we found minor differences in individual methylation variable positions following AID expression, we could not find recurrent methylation changes of specific target sites or changes in global methylation.

Illumina methylation EPIC array of human blood from patients with type 2 diabetes

Project description:To explore the possibility that DNAm-derived biological age is associated with mortality independently of common risk factors in subjects with type 2 diabetes (T2D), we leveraged a well-characterized cohort of individuals with T2D and followed-up for 16.8 years to create two groups, one of deceased individuals and the other of survived patients, fully matched for common risk factors. We performed a genome wide DNAm analysis of peripheral blood leukocytes to explore differentially methylated genes related to death in T2D, test the ability of a chosen set of existing tools estimating biological aging from DNAm to predict mortality, and assess the differences between deceased and survived diabetic patients in DNAm-inferred levels of selected inflammatory proteins and in predicted blood cell counts with a known pathophysiological role in T2D.

Methylation profiling by array shows that mIDH-associated DNA hypermethylation in acute myeloid leukemia reflects differentiation blockage rather than inhibition of TET-mediated demethylation

Project description:Isocitrate dehydrogenases 1 and 2 (IDH1/2) are recurrently mutated in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), but their mechanistic role in leukemogenesis is poorly understood. The inhibition of TET enzymes by D-2-hydroxyglutarate (D-2-HG), which is produced by mutant IDH1/2 (mIDH1/2), has been suggested to promote epigenetic deregulation during tumorigenesis. In addition, mIDH also induces a differentiation block in various cell culture and mouse models. Here we analyze the genomic methylation patterns of AML patients with mIDH using Infinium 450K data from a large AML cohort and found that mIDH is associated with pronounced DNA hypermethylation at tens of thousands of CpGs. Interestingly, however, myeloid leukemia cells overexpressing mIDH, cells that were cultured in the presence of D-2-HG or TET2 mutant AML patients did not show similar methylation changes. In further analyses, we also characterized the methylation landscapes of myeloid progenitor cells and analyzed their relationship to mIDH-associated hypermethylation. Our findings identify the differentiation state of myeloid cells, rather than inhibition of TET-mediated DNA demethylation, as a major factor of mIDH-associated hypermethylation in AML. Furthermore, our results are also important for understanding the mode of action of currently developed mIDH inhibitors.

Genome-wide analysis of poly(I:C)-responsive gene expression by primary human keratinocytes with and without episomal human papillomavirus

Project description:Analysis of the effect of high-risk human papillomaviruses HPV16 and HPV18 in keratinocytes at gene expression level. The hypothesis tested in the present study was that HPVs inhibit the function of pathogen recognition receptors (PRRs), thereby evading the immune system. Results show that HPV-positive keratinocytes have a weaker response to poly(I:C), a synthetic double strand RNA agonist of viral PRRs, with IL1B as a central hub in a gene expression network of relative downregulation. Total RNA from eight primary undifferentiated keratinocyte cultures, four uninfected and four HPV-positive, that were either left unstimulated, or stimulated for 4 or 24 hrs with 25 ug/ml poly(I:C).
