Gender Differences in Global but not Targeted Demethylation in iPSC Reprogramming

ABSTRACT: Global DNA demethylation is an integral part of reprogramming processes in vivo and in vitro, but whether it occurs in the derivation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) is not known. Here we show that iPSC reprogramming involves both global and targeted demethylation, which are separable mechanistically and by their biological outcomes. Cells at intermediate-late stages of reprogramming undergo transient genome-wide demethylation, which is more pronounced in female cells. Global demethylation requires AID-mediated downregulation of UHRF1 protein and abolishing demethylation leaves thousands of hypermethylated regions in the iPSCs genome. Independently of AID and global demethylation, regulatory regions, particularly ESC enhancers and super-enhancers, are specifically targeted for hypomethylation in association with transcription of the pluripotency network. Our results show that global and targeted DNA demethylation are conserved and distinct reprogramming processes, presumably because of their respective roles in epigenetic memory erasure and in the establishment of cell identity.

X Chromosome Dosage Influences DNA Methylation Dynamics During Reprogramming to Mouse iPSCs

Project description:A dramatic difference in global DNA methylation between male and female cells characterizes mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs), unlike somatic cells. We analyzed DNA methylation changes during reprogramming of male and female somatic cells and in resulting induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). At an intermediate reprogramming stage, somatic and pluripotency enhancers are targeted for partial methylation and demethylation. Demethylation within pluripotency enhancers often occurs at ESC binding sites of pluripotency transcription factors. Late in reprogramming, global hypomethylation is induced in a female-specific manner. Genome-wide hypomethylation in female cells affects many genomic landmarks, including enhancers and imprint control regions, and accompanies the reactivation of the inactive X-chromosome. The loss of one of the two X-chromosomes in propagating female iPSCs is associated with genome-wide methylation gain. Collectively, our findings highlight the dynamic regulation of DNA methylation at enhancers during reprogramming and reveal that X-chromosome dosage dictates global DNA methylation levels in iPSCs.

Genome-wide erasure of DNA methylation in mouse primordial germ cells is affected by Aid deficiency

Project description:Epigenetic reprogramming including demethylation of DNA occurs in mammalian primordial germ cells (PGCs) and in early embryos, and is important for the erasure of imprints and epimutations, and the return to pluripotency. The extent of this reprogramming and its molecular mechanisms are poorly understood. We previously showed that the cytidine deaminases Aid and Apobec1 can deaminate 5-methylcytosine in vitro and in E coli, and in the mouse are expressed in tissues in which demethylation occurs. Here we profiled DNA methylation throughout the genome by unbiased bisulfite Next Generation Sequencing (BS-Seq) in wildtype and Aid deficient PGCs at E13.5. Wildtype PGCs revealed dramatic genome-wide erasure of methylation to a level below that of methylation deficient (Np95-/-) ES cells, with female PGCs being less methylated than male ones. By contrast, Aid deficient PGCs were up to three times more methylated than wildtype ones; this substantial difference occurred throughout the genome, with introns, intergenic regions and transposons being relatively more methylated than exons. Relative hypermethylation in Aid deficient PGCs was confirmed by analysis of individual loci in the genome. Our results reveal that erasure of DNA methylation in the germ line is a global process, hence limiting the potential for transgenerational epigenetic inheritance. Aid deficiency interferes with genome-wide erasure of DNA methylation patterns, suggesting that Aid has a critical function in epigenetic reprogramming and potentially in restricting the inheritance of epimutations in mammals.

Effect of Aid deletion on the global gene expression iPS cells

Project description:It has been shown that DNA demethylation has a pivotal role in the generation of induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells. However, the underlying mechanism is still unclear. Previous reports indicated that activation-induced cytidine deaminase (Aid) is involved in DNA demethylation in several developmental processes and cell fusion-mediated reprogramming. Based on the reports, we hypothesized that Aid may be involved in DNA demethylation during the iPS cell generation. In this study, we examined the function of Aid in iPS cell generation using Aid knockout (Aid-/-) mice expressing a GFP reporter under the control of a pluripotent stem cell marker, Nanog. By the introduction of Oct3/4, Sox2, Klf4 and c-Myc, Nanog-GFP positive iPS cells could be generated from the fibroblasts and primary B cells of Aid-/- mice. The Aid-/- iPS cells showed normal proliferation and gave rise to chimeras, indicating their capacity for self-renewal and pluripotency. Microarray analysis demonstrated that the global gene expression of Aid-/- iPS cells was similar to that of Aid+/+ iPS cells. Aid+/+ and Aid-/- iPS colonies were generated from Aid+/+ and Aid-/- MEFs and picked up mechanically. The clones were passaged four times on feeder cells and two times on gelatin-coated dishes to exclude the contamination of feeder cells. Subsequently, the RNA was isolated. Six Aid+/+ iPS cell clones and six Aid-/- iPS cell clones were compared by microarray. Samples from Aid+/+ and Aid-/-iPS cells

Regulation of DNA methylation landscape in human somatic cell reprogramming by miR-29 family (MeDIP-seq)

Project description:Reprogramming to pluripotency after overexpression of OCT4, SOX2, KLF4 and MYC is accompanied by global genomic and epigenomic changes. Histone modification and DNA methylation states in iPSCs have been shown to be highly similar with embryonic stem cells (ESCs). However, epigenetic differences still exist between iPSCs and ESCs. In particular, aberrant DNA methylation states found in iPSCs are a major concern for using iPSCs in a clinical setting. Thus, it is critical to find factors that regulate DNA methylation states in reprogramming. Here, we found that the miR-29 family is an important epigenetic regulator during human somatic cell reprogramming. Our global DNA methylation and hydroxymethylation analysis shows that DNA demethylation is a major event mediated by miR-29a depletion during early reprogramming, and that iPSCs derived from miR-29a depletion are epigenetically closer to ESCs. Our findings uncover an important miRNA-based approach to generate clinically robust iPSCs.

Gene expression profiling of TET1 KO induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) reprogrammed from WT mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs)

Project description:The generation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) involves activation of the endogenous pluripotency circuitry and global DNA demethylation late in reprogramming, but temporal resolution of these events are insufficient using existing stage markers. Here, we generated murine transgenic lines harboring dual fluorescent reporters reflecting cell-state specific expression of the master pluripotency factor Oct4 and the 5-methylcytosine dioxygenase Tet1. By assessing reprogramming intermediates based on dual reporter patterns, we identified a sequential order of Tet1 and Oct4 gene activation at proximal and distal regulatory elements following pluripotency entry. A transient phase of global gene repression accompanies full activation of Tet1, precedes activation of meiotic and gametogenesis genes, and distinguishes phases of global DNA demethylation reminiscent of germ-line reprogramming. Loss of Tet1 is compatible with reprogramming towards full Oct4 gene activation, but generates iPSCs with epigenetic defects. Therefore, the transcriptional logic of Tet1 expression signals an epigenetic roadmap towards efficient reprogramming.
