Multi-institutional collaboration to characterize 5hmC in prostate cancer, both tumor biopsies and cfDNA.

ABSTRACT: This study used pull-down sequencing to measure 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) levels in tissue biopsy specimens from patients with localized and metastatic castration-resistant (mCRPC) prostate cancer. For a subset of the cohort, the same technique was used to sequence cell-free DNA (cfDNA) isolated from patient plasma. To assess 5hmC levels in cfDNA from a larger number of specimens, plasma samples from another mCRPC cohort were also assayed with this method. The larger cohort of cfDNA samples was further anlayzed with a targeted sequencing gene panel.

Dynamics of the cell-free DNA methylome of metastatic prostate cancer during androgen-targeting treatment

Project description:Aim: We examined methylation changes in cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) during treatment. Patients and Methods: Genome-wide methylation analysis of sequentially collected cfDNA samples derived from mCRPC patients undergoing androgen-targeting therapy was performed. Results: Alterations in methylation states of genes previously implicated in prostate cancer progression were observed, and patients that maintained methylation changes throughout therapy tended to have a longer time to clinical progression (TTP). Importantly, we also report that markers associated with a highly aggressive form of the disease, Neuroendocrine-CRPC, were associated with a faster TTP. Conclusion: Our findings highlight the potential of monitoring the cfDNA methylome during therapy in mCRPC, which may serve as predictive markers of response to androgen-targeting agents.

Genome-wide DNA methylation analysis of colorectal cancer and polyp

Project description:Colorectal polyp is known a precursor of colorectal cancer (CRC) that holds an increased risk for progression to CRC. Circulating cell-free DNA(cfDNA) methylation has shown favorable performance in the detection and monitoring the malignant progression in a variety of cancers. Here, we conducted a study to discovery cfDNA methylation markers for the diagnosis of CRC. We first performed a genome-wide analysis using the Infinium HumanMethylationEPIC BeadChip array to identify differentially methylated CpGs (DMCs) between 8 CRC and 8 polyp tissues. Then, we validated DMCs in a larger tissue cohort and four methylation markers (cg04486886, cg06712559, cg13539460 and cg27541454) were selected as the methylation markers in tissue by LASSO and random forest models. A diagnosis prediction model was bulit based on the four markers and the methylaion diagnosis score (md-score) can effectively discriminate patients with CRC from polyp tissues. Finally, a single cfDNA methylation marker, cg27541454, was confirmed hypermethylated in CRC in the plasma validation cohort. Together, our findings suggested that the md-score derived from tissue could robustly detect CRC from polpy patients, and cg27541454 may be a promising candidate non-invasive biomarker for CRC early diagnosis.

Identification of ventricle-specific methylation patterns in cell-free DNA and correlation with myocardial apoptosis and acute cellular rejection after heart transplantation

Project description:Increased levels of donor-derived cell-free DNA (dd-cfDNA) in recipient plasma have been associated with acute cellular rejection (ACR) after heart transplantation. DNA sequence differences have been used to distinguish between donor and recipient cfDNA but epigenetic differences could also potentially identify dd-cfDNA. This study aimed to assess the feasibility of using ventricle-specific methylation patterns in human cfDNA as an alternative biomarker for ACR in cardiac transplantation.

Differential expression of plasma miRNAs in immune thrombocytopenia

Project description:We investigated the expression profiles of plasma miRNAs in immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) patients. Peripheral blood plasma was used for Agilent miRNA expression microarray analysis to define miRNA profiles and to identify miRNAs with discriminatory levels for ITP and healthy controls. Results were further validated using quantitative realtime PCR on a larger cohort, enabling relative quantification of plasma miRNAs and defining miRNAs with diagnostic value for the disease.

A genome-wide cell-free DNA methylation analysis identifies an episignature associated with metastatic luminal B breast cancer.

Project description:Breast cancers of the luminal B subtype are frequent tumors with high proliferation and poor prognosis. Epigenetic alterations have been found in breast tumors and in biological fluids. We aimed to profile the cell-free DNA (cfDNA) methylome of metastatic luminal B breast cancer (LBBC) patients using an epigenomic approach to discover potential noninvasive biomarkers. Plasma cfDNA was analyzed using the Infinium MethylationEpic array (EPIC array) in a cohort of 14 women, including metastatic LBBC patients and healthy controls.

Exposure of THP1 cells to plasma containing or lacking cfDNA

Project description:We performed all stimulatory experiments using THP1 cell line as a representative of primary human monocytes to show fundamental role of the cfDNA in healthy organisms. The experiments were conducted in duplicates using plasma containing cfDNA (NP) and the reference one with cfDNA removed by DNase (TP) to recognize unequivocally the effect of plasma cfDNA on transcriptome and proteome of monocytes. We used native human plasma samples obtained from healthy volunteers with no animal serum addition to cultivation medium in order to avoid the presence of uncharacterized animal cfDNA in the experiments.

Low plasma levels of miR-451a, miR-223-3p, and miR-27a-3p predict adverse prognosis in myelodysplastic syndromes

Project description:We investigated the spectra of circulating miRNAs in plasma of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) patients. Peripheral blood plasma from MDS patients with different risk scores was used for Agilent miRNA expression microarray analysis to define miRNA profile and to find miRNAs with discriminatory levels for lower risk and higher risk MDS. Results were further validated using droplet digital PCR on a larger cohort, enabling absolute quantification of plasma miRNAs and defining miRNAs with prognostic value for the disease. We analyzed expression profile of circulating miRNAs in plasma from 21 individuals: 7 controls and 14 MDS patients.

Machine learning-based detection of immune-mediated diseases from genome-wide cell-free DNA sequencing datasets

Project description:The early detection of tissue and organ damage associated with autoimmune diseases (AID) has been identified as key to improve long-term survival, but non-invasive biomarkers are lacking. Elevated cell-free DNA (cfDNA) levels have been observed in AID and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), prompting interest to use cfDNA as a potential non-invasive diagnostic and prognostic biomarker. Despite these known disease-related changes in concentration, it remains impossible to identify AID and IBD patients through cfDNA analysis alone. By using unsupervised clustering on large sets of shallow whole-genome sequencing (sWGS) cfDNA data, we uncover AID- and IBD-specific genome-wide patterns in plasma cfDNA in both the obstetric and general AID and IBD populations. Supervised learning of the genome-wide patterns allows AID prediction with 50% sensitivity at 95% specificity. Importantly, the method can identify pregnant women with AID during routine non-invasive prenatal screening. Since AID pregnancies have an increased risk of severe complications, early recognition or detection of new onset AID can redirect pregnancy management and limit potential adverse events. This method opens up new avenues for screening, diagnosis and monitoring of AID and IBD.
