Breast tumor tissue specimens vs. non-tumor tissue specimens. Biological replicates: 12 breast tumor specimens, 5 breast non-tumor specimens, 7 breast cancer cell lines, 3 HMEC genotypes, 3 HMF genotypes. Immunoprecipitation using anti-Methylcytosine (5MeC) antibody.

Project description:Aberrant DNA methylation is frequently observed in cancer. The aim of this study was to determine how DNA methylation is changed after toxicant-induced malignant transformation. This study also puts the DNA methylation changes into context with respect to the aberrant DNA methylation events that occur in bladder and prostate carcinogenesis not associated with toxicant exposure.

Project description:Aberrant DNA methylation is a hallmark of cancer cells. However, the mechanisms underlying changes in DNA methylation remain elusive. Transcription factors initially thought to be repressed from binding by DNA methylation, have recently emerged as being able to shape DNA methylation patterns. Here, we integrated the massive amount of data available from The Cancer Genome Atlas to predict transcription factors drivingAQ1 aberrant DNA methylation in 13 cancer types. We identified differentially methylated regions between cancer and matching healthy samples, searched for transcription factor motifs enriched in those regions and selected transcription factors with corresponding changes in gene expression. We predict transcription factors known to be involved in cancer as well as novel candidates to drive hypo-methylated regions such as FOXA1 and GATA3 in breast cancer, FOXA1 and TWIST1 in prostate cancer and NFE2L2 in lung cancer. We also predict transcription factors that lead to hyper-methylated regions upon transcription factor loss such as EGR1 in several cancer types. Finally, we validate that FOXA1 and GATA3 mediate hypo-methylated regions in breast cancer cells. Our work highlights the importance of some transcription factors as upstream regulators shaping DNA methylation patterns in cancer.

Project description:Promoter methylation was assayed in a number of breast cancer and control normal samples along with the effects of 5'-aza-2'-deoxycytidine on breast cancer cell line transcriptomes. Aberrant promoter hypermethylation is frequently observed in cancer. The potential for this to contribute to tumour development depends on whether the genes affected are repressed because of their methylation. Many aberrantly methylated genes play important roles in development and are bivalently marked in ES cells suggesting that their aberrant methylation may reflect developmental processes. We investigated this possibility by analysing promoter methylation in 19 breast cancer cell lines, 10 normal tissues and 47 primary breast tumours. In order to determine the role of DNA methylation in silencing genes in breast cancer, we also examined the effects of the demethylating agent 5-aza-2?-deoxycytidine on gene expression in 3 breast cancer cell lines and HCT116 cells. Gene expression changes were also assayed in the DNA methyltransferase deficient HCT116 DKO cell line. Our findings implicate aberrant DNA methylation as a marker of cell lineage rather than tumour progression and suggest that, in most cases, it does not cause the repression with which it is associated. A number of human breast cancer cell lines, breast tumours and normal tissues were analysed on Illumina Infinium Methylation27 Beadchips to assay promoter methylation. Selected cell lines were analysed on expression arrays before and after treatment with 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine.
