Low-input and multiplexed microfluidic assay reveals epigenomic variation across cerebellum and prefrontal cortex

ABSTRACT: There has been an extensive effort underway to profile epigenetic features at the genome-wide scale using primary ex vivo tissues. Cell-type specificity of epigenomes calls for enrichment to obtain a homogenous cell population from a small quantity of tissues. Thus technologies that permit both ultralow input and high throughput are desired for profiling an array of histone marks. Here we demonstrate a simple microfluidic technology, SurfaceChIP-seq, for profiling genome-wide histone modifications using as few as 30 cells per assay and with up to 8 assays running in parallel. We applied the technology to study epigenomic landscapes in neurons and glia in prefrontal cortex and cerebellum of mouse brain. The data revealed extensive epigenomic difference in the two regions on important functional elements such as promoters and enhancers.

Microfluidic MeDIP-seq for low-input methylomic analysis of mammary tumorigenesis in mice

Project description:Studies of dynamic epigenomic changes during tumorigenesis using mice often require profiling epigenomes using a tiny quantity of tissue samples. Conventional epigenomic tests do not support such analysis due to the large amount of materials required by these assays. In this study, we developed an ultrasensitive microfluidics-based methylated DNA immunoprecipitation followed by next-generation sequencing (MeDIP-seq) technology for profiling methylomes using as little as 0.5 ng DNA (or ~100 cells) with 1.5 h on-chip process for immunoprecipitation. This technology enabled us to examine genome-wide DNA methylation in a C3(1)/SV40 T-antigen transgenic mouse model during different stages of mammary cancer development. Using our data, we identified differentially methylated regions and their associated genes in different periods of cancer development. Our results showed that unique methylomic features were presented in various tumor developmental stages.

Microfluidic platform for next-generation sequencing library preparation with low-input samples

Project description:Advances in Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) have made available a wealth of information that had previously been inaccessible to researchers and clinicians. NGS has been applied to understand genomic, transcriptomic, and epigenomic changes and gained traction as a significant tool capable of accelerating diagnosis, prognosis, and biomarker discovery. However, these NGS assays have yet to be practical methods for patient stratification or diagnosis because of the gap between the tiny quantities of biomaterials provided by a clinical sample and the large DNA input required by most of these assays. Current library preparation methodologies typically require large input amounts of DNA and a long and complicated manual process. Here we present a microfluidic reactor system for NGS library preparation, capable of reducing the number of pipetting steps significantly, automating much of the process, while supporting extremely low DNA input requirement (10 pg per library). This largely automated technology will allow for low-input preparations of 8 libraries simultaneously while reducing batch to batch variation and operator hands-on time.

Multiplexed and ultralow-input ChIP-seq enabled by tagmentation-based indexing and facile microfluidics

Project description:Epigenome constitutes an important layer that regulates gene expression and dynamics during development and diseases. Extensive efforts have been made to develop epigenome profiling methods using a low number of cells and with high throughput. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) is the most important approach for profiling genome-wide epigenetic changes such as histone modifications. In this report, we demonstrate microfluidic ChIPmentation (mu-CM), a microfluidic technology that enables profiling cell samples that individually do not generate enough ChIP DNA for sequencing library preparation. We used a simple microfluidic device to allow 8 samples to be processed simultaneously. The samples were indexed differently using a tagmentation-based approach (ChIPmentation) and then merged for library preparation. Histone modification profile for each individual sample was obtained by demultiplexing the sequencing reads based on the indexes. Our technology allowed profiling 20 cells and is well suited for cell-type-specific studies using low-abundance tissues.

Low-input and multiplexed microfluidic assay reveals epigenomic variation across cerebellum and prefrontal cortex.

Project description:Extensive effort is under way to survey the epigenomic landscape of primary ex vivo tissues to establish normal reference data and to discern variation associated with disease. The low abundance of some tissue types and the isolation procedure required to generate a homogenous cell population often yield a small quantity of cells for examination. This difficulty is further compounded by the need to profile a myriad of epigenetic marks. Thus, technologies that permit both ultralow input and high throughput are desired. We demonstrate a simple microfluidic technology, SurfaceChIP-seq, for profiling genome-wide histone modifications using as few as 30 to 100 cells per assay and with up to eight assays running in parallel. We applied the technology to profile epigenomes using nuclei isolated from prefrontal cortex and cerebellum of mouse brain. Our cell type-specific data revealed that neuronal and glial fractions exhibited profound epigenomic differences across the two functionally distinct brain regions.

A plug and play microfluidic platform for standardized sensitive low-input Chromatin Immunoprecipitation

Project description:Epigenetic profiling by chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing (ChIP-seq) has become a powerful tool for genome-wide identification of regulatory elements, for defining transcriptional regulatory networks and for screening for biomarkers. However, the ChIP-seq protocol for low-input samples is laborious, time-consuming and suffers from experimental variation, resulting in poor reproducibility and low throughput. Although prototypic microfluidic ChIP-seq platforms have been developed, these are poorly transferable as they require sophisticated custom-made equipment and in-depth microfluidic and ChIP expertise, while lacking parallelisation. To enable standardized, automated ChIP-seq profiling of low-input samples, we constructed microfluidic PDMS-based plates capable of performing 24 sensitive ChIP reactions within 30 minutes hands-on time and 4.5 hours machine-running time. These disposable plates can be conveniently loaded into a widely available controller for pneumatics and thermocycling. In light of the Plug and Play (PnP) ChIP plates and workflow, we named our procedure PnP-ChIP-seq. We demonstrate high-quality ChIP-seq on hundreds to few thousands of cells for all six post-translational histone modifications that are included in the International Human Epigenome Consortium set of reference epigenomes. PnP-ChIP-seq robustly detects epigenetic differences on promoters and enhancers between naïve and more primed mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs). Furthermore, we used our platform to generate epigenetic profiles of rare subpopulations of mESCs that resemble the 2-cell stage of embryonic development. PnP-ChIP-seq allows non-expert labs worldwide to conveniently run robust, standardized ChIP-seq, while its high-throughput, consistency and sensitivity paves the way towards large-scale profiling of precious sample types such as rare subpopulations of cells or biopsies.

Pressure-Driven Two-Input 3D Microfluidic Logic Gates.

Project description:Microfluidics is a continuously growing field with potential not only in the fields of medical, chemical, and bioanalysis, but also in the domains of optics and information technology. Here, a pressure-driven 3D microfluidic chip is demonstrated with multiple logic Boolean functions. The presence and absence of fluid at the output of the gates represent the binary signals 1 and 0, respectively. Therefore, the logic gates do not require a specially functionalized liquid to operate. The chip is based on a multilevel of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)-based polymeric sheets with aligned microchannels while a flexible polyimide-based sheet with a cantilever-like structure is embedded to enable a one-directional flow of the liquid. Several Boolean logic functions are realized (AND, OR, and XOR) using different fluids in addition to a half adder digital microfluidic circuit. The outputs of the logic gates are designed to be at different heights within the 3D chip to enable different pressure drops. The results show that the logic gates are operational for a specific range of flow rates, which is dependent on the microchannel dimensions, surface roughness, and fluid viscosity and therefore on their hydraulic resistance. The demonstrated approach enables simple cascading of logic gates for large-scale microfluidic computing systems.
