Sequencing of cfDNA derived from the plasma of individuals of different ages

ABSTRACT: We provide the first in vivo evidence of global and local chromatin changes in human aging by analyzing cfDNA from the blood of individuals of different age groups. Our results show that nucleosome signals inferred from cfDNA are consistent with the redistribution of heterochromatin observed in cellular senescence and aging in other model systems. It also revealed age and deteriorating health status correlate with a low-level enrichment of signals from cells in the thyroid gland. In addition, we detected an overall nucleosome loss at several genomic locations, such as transcription start and termination sites, 5’UTR of L1HS retrotransposons and dimeric AluY elements with age.

Genome-wide analysis of cfDNA fragmentation patterns and nucleosome positioning in dual enzyme-digested NIPT quality control materials (DENQCMs) and maternal plasma

Project description:The genome-wide analysis of cfDNA fragmentation patterns in DENQCMs and maternal plasma was performed by deep sequencing using Illumina Novaseq to confirm their biological characteristics. We first performed deep whole genome sequencing of the cfDNA extracted from DENQCMs and maternal plasma cfDNA. Then we analyzed the sequencing data and compared various characteristics of cfDNA fragmentation patterns, such as dinucleotide composition, nucleosome protection length, and nucleosome occupancy based on a windowed protection score (WPS), to the submitter-provided processed data from a healthy individual IH01 (GEO accession GSM1833276).

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.

Cell-free DNA Methylation Patterns in Aging and Their Association with Inflamm-aging

Project description:Background: Liquid biopsies analyzing cell-free DNA methylation in plasma offer a non-invasive diagnostic for diseases, with aging biomarker potential underexplored. Methods: Utilizing enzymatic methyl-seq (EM-seq), this study assessed cfDNA methylation patterns in aging with blood from 35 healthy individuals. Results: It found aging signatures, including higher cfDNA levels and variations in fragment sizes, plus over 2 million age-related differentially methylated CpG sites. A biological age predictive model based on 41 CpG sites showed a strong correlation with chronological age, verified by two datasets. Age-specific epigenetic shifts linked to inflammation were revealed through differentially methylated regions profiling and Olink proteomics. Conclusion: These findings indicate cfDNA methylation as a potential biomarker for aging, and it might exacerbate immunoinflammatory reactivity in older individuals.

Genome-wide DNA methylation analysis in cfDNA from pancreatic cancer patients

Project description:Heterogeneity in DNA methylation status may exist between primary tumors and cfDNA. We compared the genome-wide DNA methylation status between FNA sample of pancreatic tumor and cfDNA samples from the same patients. MBD-sequencing (seq) was performed in paired samples of FNA and cfDNA from two patients. The majority of DNA methylation peaks overlapped in FNA and cfDNA samples (82.6% and 82.9% in patients #1 and #73, respectively). DNA methylation levels of each gene in FNA and cfDNA samples were highly correlated with each other (r=0.98 and 0.97 in samples 1 and 73, respectively)

Cell-free DNA comprises an in vivo, genome-wide nucleosome footprint that informs its tissue(s)-of-origin

Project description:Nucleosomes are the basic unit of packaging of eukaryotic chromatin, and nucleosome positioning can differ substantially between cell types. Here, we sequence 14.5 billion plasma-borne cell-free DNA (cfDNA) fragments (700-fold coverage) to generate genome-wide maps of in vivo nucleosome occupancy. We identify 13 million local maxima of nucleosome protection, spanning 2.53 gigabases (Gb) of the human genome, whose positions and spacings correlate with nuclear architecture, gene structure and gene expression. We further show that short cfDNA fragments - poorly recovered by standard protocols - directly footprint the in vivo occupancy of DNA-bound transcription factors such as CTCF. The sequence composition of cfDNA has previously been used to noninvasively monitor cancer, pregnancy and organ transplantation, but a key limitation of this paradigm is its dependence on genotypic differences to distinguish between contributing tissues. We show that nucleosome spacing in gene bodies and cis-regulatory elements, inferred from cfDNA in healthy individuals, correlates most strongly with transcriptional and epigenetic features of lymphoid and myeloid cells, consistent with hematopoietic cell death as the normal source of cfDNA. We build on this observation to show how in vivo nucleosome footprints can be used to infer the cell types that contribute to circulating cfDNA in pathological states such as cancer. Because it does not rely on genotypic differences, this strategy may enable the noninvasive cfDNA-based monitoring of a much broader set of clinical conditions than is currently possible. Sequencing of cfDNA libraries from healthy individuals, pooled healthy individuals and individuals with disease for the identification of nucleosomes and protection from other DNA binding proteins.
