A multi-tissue full lifespan epigenetic clock for mice [I]

ABSTRACT: Human DNA-methylation data have been used to develop highly accurate biomarkers of aging ("epigenetic clocks"). Recent studies demonstrate that similar epigenetic clocks for mice (Mus Musculus) can be slowed by gold standard anti-aging interventions such as calorie restriction and growth hormone receptor knock-outs. Using DNA methylation data from previous publications with data collected in house for a total 1189 samples spanning 193,651 CpG sites, we developed 4 novel epigenetic clocks by choosing different regression models (elastic net- versus ridge regression) and by considering different sets of CpGs (all CpGs vs highly conserved CpGs). We demonstrate that accurate age estimators can be built on the basis of highly conserved CpGs. However, the most accurate clock results from applying elastic net regression to all CpGs. While the anti-aging effect of calorie restriction could be detected with all types of epigenetic clocks, only ridge regression based clocks replicated the finding of slow epigenetic aging effects in dwarf mice. Overall, this study demonstrates that there are trade-offs when it comes to epigenetic clocks in mice. Highly accurate clocks might not be optimal for detecting the beneficial effects of anti-aging interventions.

Accurate age prediction from blood using a small set of DNA methylation sites and a cohort-based machine learning algorithm

Project description:Chronological age prediction from DNA methylation sheds light on human aging, indicates poor health and predicts lifespan. Previous studies developed methylation clocks based on linear regression models on methylation array data. While accurate, these models are limited to fixed-rate changes in methylation levels across age. Moreover, the high cost of methylation arrays, compared to targeted-PCR sequencing, hinders widespread utility of such predictors. We present an AI-based alternative termed GP-age, which uses a non-parametric approach based on Gaussian Process Regression of a large cohort of ~12K blood methylomes. Given a new blood sample, methylation levels are compared to the cohort samples, which are then weighted to predict the query age. Using only 30 CpG sites, our approach outperforms state-of-the-art methylation clocks that use hundreds of sites, with a median error of 2.1 years (on held-out data). Our model was also applied to sequencing-based data yielding highly accurate predictions. Overall, we provide an accessible alternative to current array-based methylation clocks, with future applications in aging research, forensic profiling, and monitoring epigenetic processes in transplantation medicine and cancer.

Genome-wide profiling of DNA methylation at single-base resolution based on MeDIP-bisulfite high-throughput sequencing and ridge regression (MB)

Project description:Unraveling complexity of DNA methylome is essential to decipher DNA methylation mechanism in life. However, this has been subjected to technological constraints to balance between cost and accurate measurement of the DNA methylation level. In this study, by innovatively introducing C-hydroxylmethylated adapters, we have developed MeDIP-Bisulfite sequencing (MB-seq), which could obtain DNA methylome of repertoire CpGs at single-base resolution. We found MB-seq only costs 10% of MethylC-seq, but covers 85% of total CpGs in human genome. Unlike absolute methylation levels determined by MethylC-seq and RRBS, MB-seq presented relative methylation levels that are linearly inflated. This has enlightened us to develop a MB-seq corresponding correction method for methylation level based on ridge regression, which integrates the data of MB-seq and RRBS to predict the methylation level of total 28.2 million CpGs on human genome with high accuracy (Pearson correlation coefficient, PCC=0.90). Moreover, by employing MB-seq, we generated the DNA methylome of an ovarian epithelial cell line (T29) and its oncogenic counterpart (T29H), respectively. After ridge regression, we identified 131,790 differential methylation regions (DMRs) with high accuracy between T29 and T29H, far more than 7,567 obtained from RRBS. Taken together, our result demonstrated that the MB-seq combined with ridge regression is a wide applicable approach for profiling of DNA methylome.

Development of a novel aging clock based on chromatin accessibility [RNA-seq]

Project description:The establishment of highly accurate aging clocks based on DNA methylation highlighted the strong link between epigenetic alterations and aging. However, connecting methylation clocks to physiological changes is not straightforward. Transcriptomics and proteomics clocks on the other hand are directly connected to cellular function, yet they do not allow us to understand underlying epigenetic mechanisms. We hypothesize that chromatin accessibility, a readout that integrates many epigenetic mechanisms, may bridge epigenetic changes with their downstream effects in aging. To demonstrate that chromatin accessibility can predict age, we generated chromatin accessibility profiles from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of 157 human donors, aged 20 to 74 and used them to construct a novel aging clock. Our clock predicted age with a root mean squared error of 7.69 years, a median absolute error of 5.69 years and a correlation of 0.83. Moreover, by comparing our chromatin accessibility data to matched transcriptomic profiles, we show that the genomic sites selected by our clock drive changes in transcription during aging. This chromatin accessibility clock could therefore be used to better understand the mechanisms driving the process of aging and evaluate anti-aging interventions.

Epigenetic age-predictions in mice using pyrosequencing, droplet digital PCR or barcoded bisulfite amplicon sequencing

Project description:Age-associated DNA methylation reflects aspect of biological aging - therefore epigenetic clocks for mice can help to elucidate the impact of treatments or genetic background on the aging process in this model organism. Initially, age-predictors for mice were trained for genome-wide DNA methylation profiles and we have recently described a targeted assay based on pyrosequencing of DNA methylation at only three CG dinucleotides (CpGs). Here, we have re-evaluated pyrosequencing approaches in comparison to droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) and barcoded bisulfite amplicon sequencing (BBA-seq). At individual CpGs the correlation of DNA methylation with chronological age was slightly higher for pyrosequencing and ddPCR as compared to BBA-seq. On the other hand, BBA-seq revealed that neighboring CpGs tend to be stochastically modified at murine age-associated regions. Furthermore, the binary sequel of methylated and non-methylated CpGs in individual reads can be used for single-read predictions, which may reflect heterogeneity in epigenetic aging. In comparison to C57BL/6 mice the epigenetic age-predictions using BBA-seq were also accelerated in the shorter-lived DBA/2 mice, and in C57BL/6 mice with a lifespan quantitative trait locus of DBA/2 mice. Taken together, we describe further optimized and alternative targeted methods to determine epigenetic clocks in mice.

Using DNA methylation profiling to evaluate biological age and longevity interventions.

Project description:We utilized Reduced Representation Bisulfite Sequencing to profile DNA methylomes from whole blood of mice to develop a robust predictor of mouse biological aging. Based on DNA methylation profiles of mice from various ages, strains, genetic backgrounds, and diets, an aging methylation signature was observed and an epigenetic clock was created with elastic net linear regression. Profiles from fibroblasts and iPSCs showed that the aging clock can be reset.

Epigenetic age oscillates during the day (WBC-Neu 52 yr old)

Project description:Since their introduction, epigenetic clocks have been extensively used in aging and human disease research. In this study, we reveal an intriguing pattern: epigenetic age predictions display a 24-hour periodicity. These paradoxical age oscillations can be attributed to variations in blood cell type composition and epigenomes, both of which demonstrate circadian rhythmicity. This discovery emphasizes the significance of factoring-in the time of day to obtain accurate estimates of epigenetic age.
