Project description:Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a common microvascular complication that may cause severe visual impairment and blindness in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Early detection of DR will provide opportunities for more treatment options and better control of disease progression. Effective biomarkers, which are not currently available, may improve clinical outcomes through precise diagnosis and prognosis. We sought to develop a non-invasive diagnostic approach for diabetic retinopathy among type 2 diabetes mellitus based on 5-hydroxymethylcytosines (5hmC), an emerging epigenetic marker, in circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA)

Project description:BACKGROUND: Long-term complications of type 2 diabetes (T2D), such as macrovascular and microvascular events, are the major causes for T2D-related disability and mortality. A clinically convenient, non-invasive approach for monitoring the development of these complications would improve the overall life quality of patients with T2D and help reduce healthcare burden through preventive interventions. METHODS: A selective chemical labeling strategy for 5-hydroxymethylcytosines (5hmC-Seal) was used to profile genome-wide 5hmCs, an emerging class of epigenetic markers implicated in complex diseases including diabetes, in circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) from a collection of Chinese patients (n = 62). Differentially modified 5hmC markers between patients with T2D with and without macrovascular/microvascular complications were analyzed under a case-control design. RESULTS: Statistically significant changes in 5hmC markers were associated with T2D-related macrovascular/microvascular complications, involving genes and pathways relevant to vascular biology and diabetes, including insulin resistance and inflammation. A 16-gene 5hmC marker panel accurately distinguished patients with vascular complications from those without (testing set: AUC = 0.85, 95%CI, 0.73-0.96), outperforming conventional clinical variables such as urinary albumin. In addition, a separate 13-gene 5hmC marker panel could distinguish patients with single complications from those with multiple complications (testing set: AUC = 0.84, 95%CI, 0.68-0.99), showing superiority over conventional clinical variables. CONCLUSIONS: The 5hmC markers in cfDNA reflected the epigenetic changes in patients with T2D who developed macrovascular/microvascular complications. The 5hmC-Seal assay has the potential to be a clinically convenient, non-invasive approach that can be applied in the clinic to monitor the presence and severity of diabetic vascular complications.

Project description:The 5-methylcytosines (5mC) have been implicated in the pathogenesis of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and follicular lymphoma (FL). However, the role of 5-hydroxymethylcytosines (5hmC) that are generated from 5mC through active demethylation, in lymphomagenesis is unknown. We profiled genome-wide 5hmC in circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) from 73 newly diagnosed patients with DLBCL and FL. We identified 294 differentially modified genes between DLBCL and FL. The differential 5hmC in the DLBCL/FL-differentiating genes co-localized with enhancers marks: H3K4me1and H3K27ac. A four-gene panel (CNN2, HMG20B, ACRBP, IZUMO1) robustly represented the overall 5hmC modification pattern that distinguished FL from DLBCL with an area under curve of 88.5% in testing set. The median 5hmC modification levels in signature genes showed potential for separating patients for risk of all-cause mortality. This study provides evidence that genome-wide 5hmC profiles in cfDNA differ between DLBCL and FL and could be exploited as a non-invasive approach.

Project description:5-Hydroxymethylcytosines in Circulating Cell-free DNA Reveal Vascular Complications of Type 2 Diabetes

Project description:DNA modifications such as 5-methylcytosines (5mC) and 5-hydroxymethylcytosines (5hmC) are epigenetic marks known to affect global gene expression in mammals. Given their prevalence in the human genome, close correlation with gene expression, and high chemical stability, these DNA epigenetic marks could serve as ideal biomarkers for cancer diagnosis. Taking advantage of a highly sensitive and selective chemical labeling technology, we report here genome-wide 5hmC profiling in circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) and paired tumor/adjacent tissues collected from a cohort of 90 healthy individuals and 260 patients recently diagnosed with colorectal, gastric, pancreatic, liver, or thyroid cancer. 5hmC was mainly distributed in transcriptionally active regions coincident with open chromatin and permissive histone modifications. Robust cancer-specific epigenetic signatures in cfDNA were identified in different cancers. 5hmC-based biomarkers demonstrated highly accurate predictive value for patients with colorectal and gastric cancers versus healthy controls, superior to conventional biomarkers, and comparable to epigenetic biomarkers from tissue biopsies. This new strategy could lead to the development of an effective blood-based, minimally-invasive cancer diagnosis and prognosis approach.

Project description:Elevated level of circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) has been associated with poor prognosis and relapse in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), but the tumor-specific molecular alterations in cfDNA with prognostic significance remain unclear. We investigated the association between 5-hydroxymethylcytosines (5hmC), a mark of active demethylation and gene activation, in cfDNA from blood plasma and prognosis in DLBCL. We used the 5hmC-Seal, a highly sensitive chemical labeling technique, to profile genome-wide 5hmC in plasma cfDNA samples from 48 newly diagnosed patients with DLBCL at the University of Chicago between 2010 and 2012. Patients were followed through December 31, 2017. We found a distinct genomic distribution of 5hmC in cfDNA marking tissue-specific enhancers, consistent with their potential roles in gene regulation. The 5hmC profiles in cfDNA differed by cell-of-origin, and were associated with clinical prognostic features including Ann Arbor stage, serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) level, and the International Prognostic Index (IPI). We developed a 29 gene-based weighted prognostic score (wp-score) for predicting event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS), by applying the elastic net regularization on the Cox proportional hazard model. The wp-scores showed significantly improved prognostic accuracy and/or sensitivity/specificity than the established prognostic factors. In multivariate Cox models, patients with high wp-scores were associated with worse event-free survival (Hazard Ratio [HR] = 9.17, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 2.01- 41.89, p = 0.004), compared with those in the low risk group. Our findings suggest that the 5hmC signatures in cfDNA at the time of diagnosis are associated with clinical outcomes in DLBCL and may provide a novel non-invasive prognostic approach for DLBCL.

Project description:Circulating immune cells play a role in the pathophysiology of diabetic retinopathy (DR). Our study focused on examining the exact role of circulating immune cells in the development of DR. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) techniques revealed unique differentially-expressed genes and pathways in circulating immune cells among non-diabetic retinopathy (NDR) patients and DR patients. These findings highlight the notable alterations in the immunophenotypes of circulating immune cells in patients with type 1 DR.

Project description:Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is one of the common chronic complications of diabetes. Circular RNA (circRNA) plays a vital role in the pathological process of diabetic retinopathy (DR), this study aims to explore the differences in circRNA expression profiles and functions between DR and non-DR patients.Serum from diabetes mellitus (DM) patients with DR (n=5) and without DR (n=5) were extracted for circRNA microarray analysis using Arraystar Human circRNA expression profile (v2.0). Another 5 DR and 5 non-DR patients were included for quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) validation. Enriched signaling pathways were analyzed by GO and KEGG analysis. circRNA–miRNA networks were constructed by bioinformatics analysis.
