Project description:We examine genome-wide DNA methylation profiles in 66 pairs of HCC tumor and adjacent non-tumor tissues. After Bonferroni adjustment, a total of 130,512 CpG sites significantly differed in methylation level in tumor compared to non-tumor tissues, with 28,017 CpG sites hypermethylated and 102,495 hypomethylated in tumor tissues. Most (60.1%) significantly hypermethylated CpG sites are located in CpG islands. These results demonstrate the significance of aberrant DNA methylation in HCC tumorigenesis. Bisulfite modification of 1µg DNA was conducted using an EZ DNA Methylation Kit (Zymo Research, Irvine, CA) according to the manufacturer’s procedure. The Infinium Methylation 450K assay was performed according to Illumina’s standard protocol. Six HCC tumor/adjacent non-tumor tissue pairs were processed on the same chip to avoid chip-to-chip variation.

Project description:To screen candidate methylation markers for early detection of breast cancer, we performed methylated-CpG island recovery assay combined with CpG island array on 61982 CpG sites across 4162 genes in 10 breast tumor tissues and 10 non-tumor breast tissues. We detected 70 significantly hypermethylated genes in breast tumor tissues, including many novel hypermethylated genes such as ITGA4, NFIX, OTX2 and FGF12. Direct bisulfite sequencing showed widespread methylations occurred in intragenic regions of WT1, PAX6 and ITGA4 genes and promoter region of OTX2 in breast cancer tissue. COBRA assay in independent tumor and non-tumor samples confirmed that WT1, OTX2 and PAX6 genes were hypermethylated in breast cancer tissues. To explore the relationship between methylation and gene expression, gene expression profiling analysis was performed in 8 breast tumor tissues and 8 non-tumor breast tissues. We found that some hypermethylated genes in breast cancer were not expressed in breast tissues. RT-PCR assay showed that WT1 and PITX2 were only weakly expressed in the breast tumor tissues and weren’t expressed in most non-tumor breast tissues. OTX2 and PAX6 weren’t expressed in both breast tumor tissues and non-tumor tissues. Unpaired experiments, breast tumor tissues vs. breast non-tumor tissues. Biological replicates: 8 breast cancer tissue replicates, 8 breast non-tumor tissue replicates.

Project description:Lung cancer occurs in never-smokers. Epigenetic changes in lung cancer potentially represent important diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic targets. We compared DNA methylation profiles of 28 adenocarcinomas of the lungs of never-smokers with paired adjacent nonmalignant lung tissue. We correlated differential methylation changes with gene expression changes from the same 28 samples. We observed a distinct separation in methylation profiles between tumor and adjacent nonmalignant lung tissue using principal component analysis. Tumors were generally hypomethylated compared with adjacent nonmalignant tissue. Of 1,906 differentially methylated CpG sites between tumor and nonmalignant tissue, 1,198 were within classically defined CpG islands where tumors were hypermethylated compared with nonmalignant tissue. A total of 708 sites were outside CpG islands where tumors were hypomethylated compared with nonmalignant tissue. There were significant differences in expression of 351 genes (23%) of the 1,522 genes matched to the differentially methylated CpG sites. Genes that were not significantly differentially expressed and were hypermethylated within CpG sites were enriched for homeobox genes. These results suggest that the methylation profiles of lung adenocarcinomas of never-smokers and adjacent nonmalignant lung tissue are significantly different. Despite the differential methylation of homeobox genes, no significant changes in expression of these genes were detected. Twenty eight pairs of tumor and adjacent normal lungs were profiled for lung adenocarcinoma patients by gene expression and DNA methylation microarray

Project description:Background an Aim: Epigenetics are thought to play a major role in the carcinogenesis of patients that develop multiple colorectal cancers (CRC) in the non-hereditary setting. Previous studies have suggested concordant DNA hypermethylation between tumor pairs. However, only a few methylation markers have been analyzed. This study was aimed at describing the underlying epigenetic signature that differentiates multiple from solitary colorectal cancer tumors using a genome-scale DNA methylation profiling. Patients and Methods: We used a population-based cohort (EPICOLON II) of 12 patients with synchronous CRC and 29 age- sex- and tumor location-paired solitary CRC patients. DNA methylation profiling was performed using the Illumina Infinium HM27 DNA methylation assay. The most significantly hypermethylated CpG sites results were validated by Methylight. Tumors samples were also analyzed for the CpG Island Methylator Phenotype (CIMP) using the Infinium DNA methylation data; KRAS and BRAF mutations; microsatellite instability; and immunohistochemistry for MLH1/MSH2/MSH6/PMS2. Functional annotation clustering of differentially methylated genes between multiple and solitary CRCs was performed. Results: We identified 102 CpG sites that showed significant DNA hypermethylation in multiple versus solitary tumors (difference in M-NM-2 value >0.1 and p<0.05). Methylight assays validated the array results for 4 selected significantly hypermethylated genes (MAP1B, HTRA1, ALOX15, TIMP3) identified in the profiling (p=0.0002). Based on the Infinium data, 8/12 (66.6%) of multiple tumors were classified as CIMP-high, as compared to 5/29 (17%) solitary tumors (p=0.004). CIMP-high tumors displayed significant hypermethylation in 301 CpG sites (difference in M-NM-2 value >0.1; p value <0.05). Interestingly, 76/102 (74.5%) of the hypermethylated CpG sites found in multiple vs. solitary tumors were also seen to be hypermethylated in CIMP-H tumors. Functional analysis of hypermethylated genes found in multiple vs. solitary tumors showed the presence and enrichment of genes involved in different tumorigenic functions. Conclusions: Multiple colorectal cancers are associated with a distinct methylation phenotype, with a close association between tumor multiplicity and CIMP-high. Our results may be important to unravel the underlying mechanism of tumor multiplicity in the non-hereditary scenario, and provide novel potential biomarkers for identifying high-risk patients and tailoring surveillance strategies. We used a population-based cohort (EPICOLON II) of 12 patients with synchronous CRC and 29 solitary CRC patients. DNA methylation profiling was performed using the Illumina Infinium HM27 DNA methylation assay.
