Project description:Genome-wide DNA methylation was measured using the Illumina 450K array in T cells, monocytes, granulocytes and nucleated red blood cells (nRBCs) isolated from cord blood of term and extreme preterm (<31 weeks gestational age) individuals. 36 samples in total: 5 each of T cells, monocytes, granulocytes and nRBCs from term births; and 5 T cells, 4 monocytes, 4 nRBCs and 3 granulocytes from preterm births.

Project description:Methylation of cytosines at CpG sites is a common epigenetic DNA modification that can be measured by a large number of methods, now even in a genome-wide manner for hundreds of thousands of sites. The application of DNA methylation analysis is becoming widely popular in complex disorders, for example, to understand part of the “missing inheritance”. The DNA samples most readily available for methylation studies are derived from whole blood. However, blood consists of many functionally and developmentally distinct cell populations in varying proportions. We studied whether such variation might affect the interpretation of methylation studies based on whole blood DNA. We found in healthy male blood donors there is important variation in the methylation profiles of whole blood, mononuclear cells, granulocytes, and cells from seven selected purified lineages. CpG methylation between mononuclear cells and granulocytes differed for 22% of the 8252 probes covering the selected 343 genes implicated in immune-related disorders by genome-wide association studies, and at least one probe was differentially methylated for 85% of the genes, indicating that whole blood methylation results might be unintelligible. For individual genes, even if the overall methylation patterns might appear similar, a few CpG sites in the regulatory regions may have opposite methylation patterns (i.e., hypo/hyper) in the main blood cell types. We conclude that interpretation of whole blood methylation profiles should be performed with great caution and for any differences implicated in a disorder, the differences resulting from varying proportions of white blood cell types should be considered. Six healthy male blood donors, age 38 ± 13.6 years, were included in the study. From each individual, global DNA methylation levels were analyzed in whole blood, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and granulocytes as well as for seven isolated cell populations (CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, CD56+ NK cells, CD19+ B cells, CD14+ monocytes, neutrophils, and eosinophils), n=60 samples analyzed in total.

Project description:Confounding due to cellular heterogeneity represents one of the foremost challenges currently facing Epigenome-Wide Association Studies (EWAS). Statistical methods leveraging the tissue-specificity of DNA methylation for deconvoluting the cellular mixture of heterogeneous biospecimens such as whole blood, offer a promising solution. However, their performance depends entirely on the library of DNA methylation markers being used as the basis for deconvolution. The objective of this study was to train and validate an algorithm for the identification of optimal DNA methylation libraries for the deconvolution of adult human whole blood. Purified granulocytes, monocytes, CD4T, CD8T, natural killer cells, and B cells from normal human subjects were purchased from AllCells LLC (Emeryville, CA). DNA extracted from purified leukocyte subtypes were mixed in predetermined proportions to reconstruct two distinct sets of white blood cell (WBC) mixtures, each consisting of six samples. An additional six whole blood (WB) samples from disease-free adult donors with available immune cell profiling data from flow cytometry were purchased from All-Cells LLC and were included in this investigation. All DNA samples were bisulfite modified using the Zymo EZ DNA Methylation kit (Irvine, CA) and profiled for DNA methylation using the Illumina HumanMethylation450 array platform.

Project description:Tobacco smoking alters DNA methylation profiles of immune cells which may underpin some of the pathogenesis of smoking-associated diseases. However, approaches linking smoking-driven epigenetic effects in specific immune cell types with disease risk are limited. We isolated six leukocyte subtypes, CD14+ monocytes, CD15+ granulocytes, CD19+ B cells, CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, and CD56+ natural killer cells, from whole blood of healthy adult smokers and nonsmokers for epigenome-wide association study (EWAS).

Project description:This study used buccal cells and purified blood monocytes from two different clinical cohorts involving Caucasian or African American female populations with or without arthritis. The differential DNA methylation regions (DMRs) between the control and RA populations were identified using MeDIP-seq. The DMRs (i.e., epimutations) identified in the buccal cells and monocytes were found to be distinct. The DMR associated genes were identified and many have previously been shown to be associated with arthritis. Observations indicate DMRs are cell type specific.

Project description:Neutrophil granulocytes are critical mediators of innate immunity and tissue regeneration. Rare diseases of neutrophil granulocytes may affect their differentiation and/or functions. However, there are very few validated diagnostic tests assessing the functions of neutrophil granulocytes in these diseases. Here, we set out to probe omics analysis as a novel diagnostic platform for patients with defective differentiation and function of neutrophil granulocytes. We analyzed highly purified neutrophil granulocytes from 68 healthy individuals and 16 patients with rare monogenic diseases. Cells were isolated from fresh venous blood (purity >99%) and used to create a spectral library covering almost 8000 proteins using strong cation exchange fractionation. Patient neutrophil samples were then analyzed by data-independent acquisition proteomics, quantifying 4154 proteins in each sample.
