ABSTRACT: We performed genome-wide 5hmC Methylated DNA Capture (5hMethylCap-seq) on one pooled RCC tissue sample (n=3) and the corresponding matched normal kidney tissue (NAT) (n=3), and we also performed 5hMethylCap-seq on one pooled urine sample obtained from RCC patients (n=52) along with another pooled urine sample obtained from control patients without malignancy (n=65). Global 5hmC levels were dramatically reduced in RCC tissues compared to matched normal adjacent kidney tissues, and although we detected low levels of 5hmC in urine samples, we also observed reduction of 5hmC in urine samples compared to tissue samples. Through assessing histone marked regions we found that 5hmC levels were enriched in H3K9me3 marked repressive genomic regions of normal adjacent kidney compared to RCC tissue tissues. Given the lower 5hmC signal in other genomic regions in cancer tissues, this upregulated 5hmC levels in H3K9me3 marked regions were also clearly identified comparing urine samples from RCC patients to control patients without RCC. We used Caki1 and Caki2 RCC cells to established stable cells with low H3K9me3 expression by knocking down the SUV39H1 gene. We found that low global H3K9me3 causes major upregulation of 5hmC at H3K9me3 marked regions and minor downregulation of 5hmC at genebody regions without change global 5mC and 5hmC levels.
