Project description:This study tried to determine whether exposure of breast stem/progenitor cells to estrogen disrupts the epigenome of progeny epithelial cells. DNA methylation profiles were compared between control and pre-exposed epithelial cells using a genome-wide detection method called MeDIP-chip. Keywords: MeDIP-chip Breast stem/progenitor cells were continuously exposed to 17beta-estradiol (E2, 70 nM) or DMSO (vehicle control) for two weeks and then placed on 2-dimensional collagen substratum for 2-3 weeks for epithelial cell differentiation. DNA from control and pre-exposed cells were extracted and MeDIP ssays were performed using antibodies against 5-methylcytosine. The immunoprecipitated and input DNA were used to probe the Agilent human CpG island microarray. Dye-swap experiments were also performed.

Project description:Environmental toxicants have been shown to induce the epigenetic transgenerational inheritance of adult onset disease, including testis disease and male infertility. The current study was designed to determine the impact of an altered sperm epigenome on the subsequent development of an adult somatic cell (Sertoli cell) that influences the onset of a specific disease (male infertility). A gestating female rat (F0 generation) was exposed to the agriculture fungicide vinclozolin during gonadal sex determination and then the subsequent F3 generation progeny used for the isolation of Sertoli cells and assessment of testis disease. As previously observed, enhanced spermatogenic cell apoptosis was observed. The Sertoli cells provide the physical and nutritional support for the spermatogenic cells. Over 400 genes were differentially expressed in the F3 generation control versus vinclozolin lineage Sertoli cells. A number of specific cellular pathways were identified to be transgenerationally altered. One of the key metabolic processes affected was pyruvate/lactate production that is directly linked to spermatogenic cell viability. The Sertoli cell epigenome was also altered with over 100 promoter differential DNA methylation regions (DMR) modified. The genomic features and overlap with the sperm DMR were investigated. Observations demonstrate that the transgenerational sperm epigenetic alterations subsequently alters the development of a specific somatic cell (Sertoli cell) epigenome and transcriptome that correlates with adult onset disease (male infertility). The environmentally induced epigenetic transgenerational inheritance of testis disease appears to be a component of the molecular etiology of male infertility. The isolated Sertoli cell populations from three different groups of animals that were ancestrally exposed to vinclozolin during days 8-14 (E8-14) of fetal development and cell isolates were used to obtain Sertoli cell RNA and DNA from F3 generation control and vinclozolin lineages. The control and vinclozolin lineage Sertoli cell DNA was used in a methylated DNA immunoprecipitation (MeDIP) and genome wide promoter tiling array (Chip) analysis (MeDIP-Chip). Three different comparative (amplified MeDIP vs. amplified MeDIP) hybridizations experiments included in three sub-arrays were performed by Nimblegen. Each comparative hybridization experiment contained one biological replicate of Sertoli cell Whole Genome Amplified-MeDIP-DNA sample from each lineage-treatment.

Project description:The actions of environmental toxicants and relevant mixtures in promoting the epigenetic transgenerational inheritance of ovarian disease was investigated with the use of a fungicide, a pesticide mixture, a plastic mixture, dioxin and a hydrocarbon mixture. After transient exposure of an F0 gestating female rat during embryonic gonadal sex determination, the F1 and F3 generation progeny adult onset ovarian disease was assessed. Transgenerational disease phenotypes observed included an increase in cysts resembling human polycystic ovarian disease (PCO) and a decrease in the ovarian primordial follicle pool size resembling primary ovarian insufficiency (POI). The F3 generation granulosa cells were isolated and found to have a transgenerational effect on the transcriptome and epigenome (differential DNA methylation). Epigenetic biomarkers for environmental exposure and associated gene networks were identified. Epigenetic transgenerational inheritance of ovarian disease states was induced by all the different classes of environmental compounds, suggesting a role of environmental epigenetics in ovarian disease etiology. Granulosa cells from large antral follicles were collected and evaluated from F3 generation rats that were ancestrally exposed to one of the five different treatments: Vinclozolin, Pesticide (includes permethrin and DEET), Plastics (includes BPA, DBP and DEHP), Low-dose Plastics (50% of Plastics dose), Dioxin, Hydrocarbon (Jet fuel JP8), or DMSO vehicle as Control. Vinclozolin lineage alterations in differentially DNA methylated regions (DMR) in the granulosa cells was investigated by using a methylated DNA immunoprecipitation (MeDIP) procedure followed by comparative hybridization on a genome wide promoter tiling array (Chip), termed an MeDIP-Chip assay. The DNA fractions from four animals of the same treatment group were pooled to create three different pooled DNA samples from each of the two treatment groups (experimental vs. control). These DNA samples were then used for methylated DNA immunoprecipitation (MeDIP) using Nimblegen microarrays. Each MeDIP sample was then used to preform three different comparative (amplified MeDIP vs. amplified MeDIP) hybridization experiments (3 sub-arrays), each encompassing DNA samples from 24 animls (3 treatment and 3 control groups).

Project description:A number of environmental factors (e.g. toxicants) have been shown to promote the epigenetic transgenerational inheritance of disease and phenotypic variation. Transgenerational inheritance requires the germline transmission of altered epigenetic information between generations in the absence of direct environmental exposures. The primary periods for epigenetic programming of the germ line are those associated with primordial germ cell development and subsequent fetal germline development. The current study examined the actions of an agricultural fungicide vinclozolin on gestating female (F0 generation) progeny in regards to the primordial germ cell (PGC) epigenetic reprogramming of the F3 generation (i.e. great-grandchildren). The F3 generation germline transcriptome and epigenome (DNA methylation) were altered transgenerationally. Interestingly, disruptions in DNA methylation patterns and altered transcriptomes were distinct between germ cells at the onset of gonadal sex determination at embryonic day 13 (E13) and after cord formation in the testis at embryonic day 16 (E16). A larger number of DNA methylation abnormalities (epimutations) and transcriptional alterations were observed in the E13 germ cells than in the E16 germ cells. These observations indicate that altered transgenerational epigenetic reprogramming and function of the male germline is a component of vinclozolin induced epigenetic transgenerational inheritance of disease. Insights into the molecular control of germline transmitted epigenetic inheritance are provided. The F0 generation females were exposed to a vehicle (dimethylsulfoxide DMSO) as control or to vinclozolin, as described in the Methods. The F1 generation offspring were bred to generate the F2 generation and the F2 generation offspring were bred to generate the F3 generation offspring. The timed pregnant F2 generation females were used to isolate the F3 generation control and vinclozolin lineage fetal gonads at the E13 and E16 time points. The F3 generation E13 PGC and E16 prospermatogonia were isolated. DNA was isolated from the freshly isolated cells to examine DNA methylation by methylated DNA immunoprecipitation (MeDIP) followed by analysis on a genome-wide promoter tiling array (Chip) using a comparative hybridization MeDIP-Chip analysis between control and vinclozolin lineage samples as described in Methods. This allowed a comparison of the epigenome alterations in F3 vinclozolin lineage germ cells at E13 and E16. Three separate experimental comparisons of control and vinclozolin-lineage animals involving different germ cell isolations were analyzed with three different MeDIP-Chip analyses at each time point.

Project description:Background: Late gestational sleep fragmentation (LG-SF) is one of the major perturbations associated with sleep apnea and other sleep disorders during pregnancy. Objectives: To investigate the effects of late LG-SF on the epigenome of visceral white adipose tissue (VWAT) in the offspring. Methods: Time-pregnant mice were exposed to LG-SF or control sleep (LG-SC) conditions during the last 6 days of gestation. We performed large-scale DNA methylation analyses using MeDIP coupled to microarrays (MeDIP-chip) in VWAT of 24-week-old LG-SF and LG-SC offspring (n=8 mice/group). Univariate multiple-testing adjusted statistical analyses were applied to identify differentially methylated regions (DMRs) between the groups. DMRs were mapped to their corresponding genes, and tested for potential overlaps with biological pathways and gene networks. Results: We detected 2148 DMRs between LG-SF and LG-SC groups (p< 0.0001, MAT algorithm). A large proportion of the DMR-associated genes have reported functions that are altered in obesity and metabolic syndrome. Overrepresented pathways and gene networks were related to metabolic regulation and inflammatory response. Conclusions: Our findings show a major role for epigenomic regulation of pathways associated to metabolic processes and inflammatory response in VWAT. Furthermore, LG-SF-induced epigenetic alterations appear to increase the susceptibility to obesity and metabolic syndrome in the offspring. 16 mouse VWAT samples were analyzed by MeDIP coupled to microarray analysis: Offspring of mothers exposed to late-gestational sleep fragmentation (n=8, LG-SF group) and offspring of mothers mouse exposed to normal sleep conditions (n=8, LG-SC group)

Project description:In this experiment, we exposed mice to ethanol injections on postnatal days 4 and 7. We then extracted whole-hippocampus on postnatal day 70. We performed MeDIP-chip using an antibody against 5mC. We also perfomed MEDME anaylsis using a chip with fully methylated DNA to act as a control. We found alterations in both modifications at many sites, including oxidative stress genes and imprinted loci. We also found many affect lipid metabolism pathways.
