Genome-wide DNA methylation profiling of multiple sclerosis patients in relapse [CD4]


ABSTRACT: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune and degenerative disease of the central nervous system, which develops in genetically predisposed individuals upon exposure to environmental influences. Environmental triggers of MS, such as viral infections or smoking, were demonstrated to affect DNA methylation, and thus to involve this important epigenetic mechanism in the development of pathological processes. To identify DNA methylation hallmarks, associated with relapse of MS, we performed genome-wide DNA methylation profiling of two cell populations (CD4+ T-lymphocytes and CD14+ monocytes), collected from the same individuals, using Illumina 450K methylation arrays. We revealed changes in DNA methylation for both cell populations of MS patients in relapse when compared wih remission. In CD4+ cells the absolute majority of differentially methylated positions (DMPs) were hypermethylated. In CD4+, but not in CD14+ cells, we found a differentially methylated region within the GNAS complex locus and showed significant differences in the ammount of its transcripts between patients in relapse and remission.
