Project description:Previous studies have suggested an erasure of DNA methylation is required to develop the stem cells in the morula embryo. An exception involves imprinted genes that escape this DNA methylation erasure. Transgenerational differential DNA methylation regions (DMRs) have been speculated to also escape this erasure. The current study was designed to assess if morula embryos escape erasure of DDT (dichloro-diphenyl-trichloroethane)-induced transgenerational sperm DMRs. Observations demonstrate that the transgenerational sperm DMR sites are not erased, so are imprinted-like DMR sites. Interestingly, we also found that the majority of low-density CpG genomic sites had a significant increase in DNA methylation in the morula embryo compared to sperm. The general erasure of DNA methylation during embryogenesis appears applicable for high-density CpG islands, but not low-density CpG deserts.

Project description:Germline transmission of epigenetic information is a critical component of epigenetic inheritance. Previous studies have suggested that an erasure of DNA methylation is required to develop stem cells in the morula embryo. An exception involves imprinted genes that escape this DNA methylation erasure. Transgenerational differential DNA methylation regions (DMRs) have been speculated to be imprinted-like and escape this erasure. The current study was designed to assess if morula embryos escape the erasure of dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane-induced transgenerational sperm DMR methylation. Observations demonstrate that the majority (98%) of transgenerational sperm DMR sites retain DNA methylation and are not erased, so appearing similar to imprinted-like sites. Interestingly, observations also demonstrate that the majority of low-density CpG genomic sites had a significant increase in DNA methylation in the morula embryo compared to sperm. This is in contrast to the previously observed DNA methylation erasure of higher-density CpG sites. The general erasure of DNA methylation during embryogenesis appears applicable to high-density DNA methylation sites (e.g. CpG islands) but neither to transgenerational DMR methylation sites nor to low-density CpG deserts, which constitute the vast majority of the genome's DNA methylation sites. The role of epigenetics during embryogenesis appears more dynamic than the simple erasure of DNA methylation.

Project description:Purpose: Paternal life experiences impact offspring health via germline, and epigenetic inheritance provides a potential mechanism. However, global reprogramming during offspring embryogenesis and gametogenesis represents the largest hurdle to conceptualize it. Yet, detailed characterization of how sperm epigenetic alterations carrying “environmental memory” can evade offspring embryonic reprogramming remains elusive. Methods: we profiled the sperm DNA methylation patterns of three consecutive generations (F0, F1 and F2) in both control and stress groups by using whole-genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS). A total of 18 sperm samples were analyzed, including three biological replicates for each generation under each treatment. In addition, small RNA sequencing was carried out on paternal sperm samples to investigate whether long-term psychological stress affected the enrichment of certain sncRNAs and to identify whether they participated in mediating the occurrence and paternal inheritance of the stress-induced DMRs Rsults: Using an optimized data analysis workflow, we obtained approximately 800 million clean reads per sample (build mm10) with strand-specific coverage ~21×, and the data covered ~96.00% of the total 21,867,837 reference CpG dinucleotides. A total of 24,427, 7,975, and 5,173 differentially methylated regions (DMRs) between control and stress groups were found in the F0, F1, and F2 generations, respectively. Inter- and transgenerational inheritance of paternal DMRs were at frequencies approximately 11.36% and 0.48%, respectively. These DMRs related to genes with functional implications for psychological stress response, and tissue inheritance of these DMRs passed paternal disorders epigenetically to offspring. More importantly, these DMRs evaded offspring embryonic reprogramming through erasure and subsequent reestablishment, but not via un-erasure way. Nonetheless, their reestablishment proportions in the primitive streak (E7.5) stage were altered. Furthermore, sncRNA-seq revealed that stress-induced tsRNA, miRNA and rsRNA dysregulation in paternal sperm might play important roles in DMRs occurrence and paternal inheritance.

Project description:Transgenerational epigenetic inheritance in mammals remains a subject of debate. Here we demonstrate that DNA methylation of promoter-associated CpG islands (CGIs) can be transmitted from parents to their offspring in mice. We generated DNA methylation-edited mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) in which CGIs of two metabolism related genes, the Ankyrin repeat domain 26 and the low-density lipoprotein receptor, were specifically methylated and silenced. DNA methylation-edited mice generated by microinjection of the methylated ESCs exhibited abnormal metabolic phenotypes. Both the acquired methylation of the targeted CGI and the phenotypic traits were maintained and transmitted across multiple generations. The heritable CGI methylation was subjected to reprograming in parental PGCs and subsequently reestablished in the next generation at post-implantation stages. These observations provide a first concrete step in support of transgenerational epigenetic inheritance in mammals, which may allow for a better understanding of the etiology, diagnosis and prevention of non-genetically inherited human diseases.

Project description:Genomic imprinting is an allele-specific gene expression system important for mammalian development and function. The molecular basis of genomic imprinting is allele-specific DNA methylation 2. While it is well known that the de novo DNA methyltransferases Dnmt3a/b are responsible for the establishment of genomic imprinting, how the methylation mark is erased during primordial germ cell (PGC) reprogramming remains a mystery. Here we report that Tet1 plays a critical role in the erasure of genomic imprinting. We show that despite their identical genotype, progenies derived from mating between Tet1-KO males and wild-type females exhibit a number of variable phenotypes including placental, fetal and postnatal growth defects, and early embryonic lethality. These defects are, at least in part, caused by the dysregulation of imprinted genes, such as Peg10 and Peg3, which exhibit aberrant hypermethylation in the paternal allele of differential methylated regions (DMRs). RNA-seq reveals extensive dysregulation of imprinted genes in the next generation due to paternal functional loss of Tet1. Genome-wide DNA methylation analysis of E13.5 PGCs and sperm derived from Tet1-KO mice reveals hypermethylation of DMRs of imprinted genes in sperm, which can be traced back to PGCs. Dynamics of methylation change in Tet1-affected sites suggested that Tet1 swipes remaining methylation including imprinted genes at late reprogramming stage. We also revealed that Tet1play a role in paternal imprinting erasure in females germline. Thus, our study establishes a critical function for Tet1 in the erasure of genomic imprinting.
