Alterations in DNA 5-hydroxymethylation patterns in the hippocampus of an experimental model of chronic epilepsy. Neurobiol Dis 2024; 200:106638. [PMID: 39142613 DOI: 10.1016/j.nbd.2024.106638] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2023] [Revised: 07/27/2024] [Accepted: 08/11/2024] [Indexed: 08/16/2024] Open
Abstract
Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is a type of focal epilepsy characterized by spontaneous recurrent seizures originating from the hippocampus. The epigenetic reprogramming hypothesis of epileptogenesis suggests that the development of TLE is associated with alterations in gene transcription changes resulting in a hyperexcitable network in TLE. DNA 5-methylcytosine (5-mC) is an epigenetic mechanism that has been associated with chronic epilepsy. However, the contribution of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC), a product of 5-mC demethylation by the Ten-Eleven Translocation (TET) family proteins in chronic TLE is poorly understood. 5-hmC is abundant in the brain and acts as a stable epigenetic mark altering gene expression through several mechanisms. Here, we found that the levels of bulk DNA 5-hmC but not 5-mC were significantly reduced in the hippocampus of human TLE patients and in the kainic acid (KA) TLE rat model. Using 5-hmC hMeDIP-sequencing, we characterized 5-hmC distribution across the genome and found bidirectional regulation of 5-hmC at intergenic regions within gene bodies. We found that hypohydroxymethylated 5-hmC intergenic regions were associated with several epilepsy-related genes, including Gal, SV2, and Kcnj11 and hyperdroxymethylation 5-hmC intergenic regions were associated with Gad65, TLR4, and Bdnf gene expression. Mechanistically, Tet1 knockdown in the hippocampus was sufficient to decrease 5-hmC levels and increase seizure susceptibility following KA administration. In contrast, Tet1 overexpression in the hippocampus resulted in increased 5-hmC levels associated with improved seizure resiliency in response to KA. These findings suggest an important role for 5-hmC as an epigenetic regulator of epilepsy that can be manipulated to influence seizure outcomes.

Abstract
RNA modifications play an important role in actively controlling recently created formation in cellular regulation mechanisms, which link them to gene expression and protein. The RNA modifications have numerous alterations, presenting broad glimpses of RNA's operations and character. The modification process by the TET enzyme oxidation is the crucial change associated with cytosine hydroxymethylation. The effect of CR is an alteration in specific biochemical ways of the organism, such as gene expression and epigenetic alterations. Traditional laboratory systems that identify 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) samples are expensive and time-consuming compared to other methods. To address this challenge, the paper proposed XGB5hmC, a machine learning algorithm based on a robust gradient boosting algorithm (XGBoost), with different residue based formulation methods to identify 5hmC samples. Their results were amalgamated, and six different frequency residue based encoding features were fused to form a hybrid vector in order to enhance model discrimination capabilities. In addition, the proposed model incorporates SHAP (Shapley Additive Explanations) based feature selection to demonstrate model interpretability by highlighting the high contributory features. Among the applied machine learning algorithms, the XGBoost ensemble model using the tenfold cross-validation test achieved improved results than existing state-of-the-art models. Our model reported an accuracy of 89.97%, sensitivity of 87.78%, specificity of 94.45%, F1-score of 0.8934%, and MCC of 0.8764%. This study highlights the potential to provide valuable insights for enhancing medical assessment and treatment protocols, representing a significant advancement in RNA modification analysis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Like its parent base 5-methylcytosine (5mC), 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) is a direct epigenetic modification of cytosines in the context of CpG dinucleotides. 5hmC is the most abundant oxidized form of 5mC, generated through the action of TET dioxygenases at gene bodies of actively-transcribed genes and at active or lineage-specific enhancers. Although such enrichments are reported for 5hmC, to date, predictive models of gene expression state or putative regulatory regions for genes using 5hmC have not been developed. RESULTS Here, by using only 5hmC enrichment in genic regions and their vicinity, we develop neural network models that predict gene expression state across 49 cell types. We show that our deep neural network models distinguish high vs low expression state utilizing only 5hmC levels and these predictive models generalize to unseen cell types. Further, in order to leverage 5hmC signal in distal enhancers for expression prediction, we employ an Activity-by-Contact model and also develop a graph convolutional neural network model with both utilizing Hi-C data and 5hmC enrichment to prioritize enhancer-promoter links. These approaches identify known and novel putative enhancers for key genes in multiple immune cell subsets. CONCLUSIONS Our work highlights the importance of 5hmC in gene regulation through proximal and distal mechanisms and provides a framework to link it to genome function. With the recent advances in 6-letter DNA sequencing by short and long-read techniques, profiling of 5mC and 5hmC may be done routinely in the near future, hence, providing a broad range of applications for the methods developed here.

Abstract
RNA modifications are pivotal in the development of newly synthesized structures, showcasing a vast array of alterations across various RNA classes. Among these, 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5HMC) stands out, playing a crucial role in gene regulation and epigenetic changes, yet its detection through conventional methods proves cumbersome and costly. To address this, we propose Deep5HMC, a robust learning model leveraging machine learning algorithms and discriminative feature extraction techniques for accurate 5HMC sample identification. Our approach integrates seven feature extraction methods and various machine learning algorithms, including Random Forest, Naive Bayes, Decision Tree, and Support Vector Machine. Through K-fold cross-validation, our model achieved a notable 84.07% accuracy rate, surpassing previous models by 7.59%, signifying its potential in early cancer and cardiovascular disease diagnosis. This study underscores the promise of Deep5HMC in offering insights for improved medical assessment and treatment protocols, marking a significant advancement in RNA modification analysis.

Abstract
Background At present, the research of genomics is in ascendency, and using bioinformatics analysis methods to systematically explore the pathogenic genes and their regulatory mechanisms will play a great role in promoting the research of cancer. This study was to search The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database and extract inflammation-related non-coding RNA to construct a prognosis model of colon cancer and search for new immunotherapeutic targets. Methods The transcriptome sequencing data and clinical data of 396 colon cancer patients were downloaded from TCGA database, and the inflammation-related non-coding RNA was obtained from the non-coding RNAs in Inflammation (ncRI) database. The prognostic model was constructed by univariate Cox regression, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression, and multivariate Cox regression, and the optimal grouping threshold of risk score was determined by X-Tile software. The patients were risk stratified to further explore the differences in immune cell infiltration and biological function between the high- and low-risk groups. Results The TCGA dataset of colon cancer was included to screen out 120 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) that overlapped in the 2 datasets, among which 29 genes were up-regulated and 91 genes were down-regulated. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis of the above 120 DEGs showed that proximal tubule sodium bicarbonate recovery, nitrogen metabolism, pancreatic fluid secretion, and PPAR signaling pathways were closely related to the occurrence of colon cancer. The expression of copper death-related genes was significantly correlated with the correlation coefficient of colon cancer (P<0.01). Gene Ontology analysis showed that the DEGs were mainly enriched in messenger RNA processing, RNA splicing, small G protein-mediated signal transduction, adhesion junction, mitochondrial matrix, mitochondrial protein complex, chromatin binding, small G protein binding, and Ras G protein binding, among others. KEGG analysis showed that the DEGs were enriched in the following pathways: herpes simplex virus type 1 infection, pathways of neurodegenerative diseases, Huntington's disease, prion disease, Parkinson's disease, the Ras signaling pathway, and so on. Conclusions The key genes closely related to colon cancer were effectively screened by the bioinformatics method, which provided a theoretical basis for further study of its mechanism.

Abstract
Vitamin C deficiency disrupts the integrity of connective tissues including bone. For decades this function has been primarily attributed to Vitamin C as a cofactor for collagen maturation. Here, we demonstrate that Vitamin C epigenetically orchestrates osteogenic differentiation and function by modulating chromatin accessibility and priming transcriptional activity. Vitamin C regulates histone demethylation (H3K9me3 and H3K27me3) and promotes TET-mediated 5hmC DNA hydroxymethylation at promoters, enhancers and super-enhancers near bone-specific genes. This epigenetic circuit licenses osteoblastogenesis by permitting the expression of all major pro-osteogenic genes. Osteogenic cell differentiation is strictly and continuously dependent on Vitamin C, whereas Vitamin C is dispensable for adipogenesis. Importantly, deletion of 5hmC-writers, Tet1 and Tet2, in Vitamin C-sufficient murine bone causes severe skeletal defects which mimic bone phenotypes of Vitamin C-insufficient Gulo knockout mice, a model of Vitamin C deficiency and scurvy. Thus, Vitamin C's epigenetic functions are central to osteoblastogenesis and bone formation and may be leveraged to prevent common bone-degenerating conditions.

Abstract
The evidence for an environmental component in chronic psychotic disorders is strong and research on the epigenetic manifestations of these environmental impacts has commenced in earnest. In reviewing this research, the focus is on three genes as models for differential methylation, MCHR1, AKT1 and TDO2, each of which have been investigated for genetic association with psychotic disorders. Environmental factors associated with psychotic disorders, and which interact with these model genes, are explored in depth. The location of transcription factor motifs relative to key methylation sites is evaluated for predicted gene expression results, and for other sites, evidence is presented for methylation directing alternative splicing. Experimental results from key studies show differential methylation: for MCHR1, in psychosis cases versus controls; for AKT1, as a pre-existing methylation pattern influencing brain activation following acute administration of a psychosis-eliciting environmental stimulus; and for TDO2, in a pattern associated with a developmental factor of risk for psychosis, in all cases the predicted expression impact being highly dependent on location. Methylation induced by smoking, a confounding variable, exhibits an intriguing pattern for all three genes. Finally, how differential methylation meshes with Darwinian principles is examined, in particular as it relates to the "flexible stem" theory of evolution.

Abstract
As an important epigenetic modification, 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) aroused wide concern about the distribution and the function. Due to the necessity of 5hmC detection, a novel photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensor was established based on the in-situ generated heterojunction of Bi4NbO8Cl@Bi2S3, which was employed as the substrate material with excellent photoelectric property. The specific recognition of 5hmC relied on the covalent reaction between -CH2OH of 5hmC and -SH on the substrate electrode under the catalysis of M.HhaI methyltransferase. Afterwards, ZrO2 was used as signal amplification unit capturing by the specific reaction of Zr with the phosphate group of 5hmC. The experimental results demonstrated well specificity and sensitivity of this biosensor. Under optimal conditions, the linear relationship between the photocurrent and the logarithm value of 5hmC concentration was constructed with the range from 0.3 to 300 nM and the detection limit of 0.0779 nM (S/N = 3). The procedures of constructing this biosensor were compact and convenient, and this biosensor realized actual detection of 5hmC level in wheat sample. Significantly, this biosensor was applied to a preliminary study that the heavy metal Pb2+ and the perfluorooctanoic acid influence the expression of 5hmC in the genomic DNA of wheat seedling roots and leaves.

Abstract
The intestinal tract is the entry gate for nutrients and symbiotic organisms, being in constant contact with external environment. DNA methylation is one of the keys to how environmental conditions, diet and nutritional status included, shape functionality in the gut and systemically. This review aims to summarise findings on the importance of methylation to gut development, differentiation and function. Evidence to date on how external factors such as diet, dietary supplements, nutritional status and microbiota modifications modulate intestinal function through DNA methylation is also presented.

Abstract
The epithelial lining of the intestine, particularly the stem cell compartment, is affected by harsh conditions in the luminal environment and also is susceptible to genotoxic agents such as radiation and chemotherapy. Therefore, the ability for intestinal epithelial cells to revert to a stem cell state is an important physiological damage response to regenerate the intestinal epithelium at sites of mucosal injury. Many signaling networks involved in maintaining the stem cell niche are activated as part of the damage response to promote cellular plasticity and regeneration. The relative contribution of each cell type and signaling pathway is a critical area of ongoing research, likely dependent on the nature of injury as well as the regional specification within the intestine. Here, we review the current understanding of the multicellular cooperation to restore the intestinal epithelium after damage.

RSC Adv 2021; 11:37205-37217. [PMID: 35496393 PMCID: PMC9043837 DOI: 10.1039/d1ra07201c] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2021] [Accepted: 11/08/2021] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Patterns and levels of DNA modifications play important roles in senescence. Two major epigenetic modifications of DNA, 5-methylcytosine (5mC) and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC), target CpG sites. Importantly, CpG concentrated regions, known as CpG islands, contain GC-rich sequences, which have the potential to fold into non-canonical DNA structures such as i-motifs and G-quadruplexes. In this study, we investigated the effect of 5mC and 5hmC modifications on the transition between a duplex, and i-motif and G-quadruplexes. To examine the transition, we firstly investigated the stability and structure of the i-motif and G-quadruplexes, considering the molecular environment in senescent cells. Analyses of their stability showed that the modifications did not drastically affect the stability. However, noteworthily, the modification can weaken the (de)stabilisation effect on G-quadruplexes caused by cosolute(s) and cations. Circular dichroism analyses indicated that the surrounding environments, including the molecular crowding and the type of cations such as K+ and Na+, regulate the topology of G-quadruplexes, while neither 5mC nor 5hmC had a drastic effect. On the other hand, the modifications changed the transition between duplexes and quadruplexes. Unmodified DNA preferred to fold into quadruplexes, whereas DNA with 5mC and 5hmC preferred to fold into duplexes in the absence of PEG200; on the other hand, DNA with or without modifications tended to fold into i-motifs under crowded conditions. Furthermore, an investigation of quadruplexes forming sequences in CpG islands, which are hyper- or hypomethylated during senescence, followed by gene ontology enrichment analysis for each gene group classified by the presence of quadruplexes, showed a difference in function between genes with and without quadruplexes in the CpG region. These results indicate that it is important to consider the effects of patterns and levels of DNA modifications on the transition between canonical and non-canonical DNA structures to understand gene regulation by epigenetic modification during senescence. The modification of DNA can regulate the transition between a duplex and quadruplexes during senescence responding to surrounding environments.![]()

Abstract
The dental pulp is critical for the production of odontoblasts to create reparative dentin. In recent years dental pulp has become a promising source of mesenchymal stem cells that are capable of differentiating into multiple cell types. To elucidate the transcriptional control mechanisms specifying the early phases of odontoblast differentiation, we analyzed the DNA demethylation pattern associated with 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) in the primary murine dental pulp. 5hmC plays an important role in chromatin accessibility and transcriptional control by modeling a dynamic equilibrium between DNA methylation and demethylation. Our research revealed 5hmC enrichment along genes and non-coding regulatory regions associated with specific developmental pathways in the genome of mouse incisor and molar dental pulp. Although the overall distribution of 5hmC is similar, the intensity and location of the 5hmC peaks significantly differs between the incisor and molar pulp genome, indicating cell type-specific epigenetic variations. Our study suggests that the differential DNA demethylation pattern could account for the distinct regulatory mechanisms underlying the tooth-specific ontogenetic programs.

Abstract
The mechanisms governing the methylome profile of tumor suppressors and oncogenes have expanded with the discovery of oxidized states of 5-methylcytosine (5mC). Ten-eleven translocation (TET) enzymes are a family of dioxygenases that iteratively catalyze 5mC oxidation and promote cytosine demethylation, thereby creating a dynamic global and local methylation landscape. While the catalytic function of TET enzymes during stem cell differentiation and development have been well studied, less is known about the multifaceted roles of TET enzymes during carcinogenesis. This review outlines several tiers of TET regulation and overviews how TET deregulation promotes a cancer phenotype. Defining the tissue-specific and context-dependent roles of TET enzymes will deepen our understanding of the epigenetic perturbations that promote or inhibit carcinogenesis.

Abstract
Ten-Eleven Translocation (TET) proteins convert 5-methylcytosine (5mC) to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) leading to a dynamic epigenetic state of DNA that can influence transcription and chromatin organization. While TET proteins interact with complexes involved in transcriptional repression and activation, the overall understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved in TET-mediated regulation of gene expression still remains limited. Here, we show that TET proteins interact with the chromatin remodelling protein lymphoid-specific helicase (LSH/HELLS) in vivo and in vitro. In mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) and embryonic stem cells (ESCs) knock out of Lsh leads to a significant reduction of 5-hydroxymethylation amount in the DNA. Whole genome sequencing of 5hmC in wild-type versus Lsh knock-out MEFs and ESCs showed that in absence of Lsh, some regions of the genome gain 5hmC while others lose it, with mild correlation with gene expression changes. We further show that differentially hydroxymethylated regions did not completely overlap with differentially methylated regions indicating that changes in 5hmC distribution upon Lsh knock-out are not a direct consequence of 5mC decrease. Altogether, our results suggest that LSH, which interacts with TET proteins, contributes to the regulation of 5hmC levels and distribution in MEFs and ESCs.

Abstract
Topographical variations of metabolite concentrations have been reported in the duodenum, jejunum and ileum of the small intestine, and in human intestinal tumours from those regions, but there are no published metabolite concentrations measurements correlated with linear position in the mouse small intestine or intestinal tumours. Since DNA methylation dynamics are influenced by metabolite concentrations, they too could show linear anatomical variation. We measured metabolites by HR-MAS 1H NMR spectroscopy and DNA cytosine modifications by LC/MS, in normal small intestines of C57BL/6J wild-type mice, and in normal and tumour samples from ApcMin/+ mice. Wild-type mouse intestines showed approximately linear, negative concentration gradations from the pylorus (i.e. the junction with the stomach) of alanine, choline compounds, creatine, leucine and valine. ApcMin/+ mouse tumours showed negative choline and valine gradients, but a positive glycine gradient. 5-Hydroxymethylcytosine showed a positive gradient in the tumours. The linear gradients we found along the length of the mouse small intestine and in tumours contrast with previous reports of discrete concentration changes in the duodenum, jejunum and ileum. To our knowledge, this is also the first report of a systematic measurement of global levels of DNA cytosine modification in wild-type and ApcMin/+ mouse small intestine.

Abstract
To fulfill the lifelong need to supply diverse epithelial cells, intestinal stem cells (ISCs) rely on executing accurate transcriptional programs. This review addresses the mechanisms that control those programs. Genes that define cell behaviors and identities are regulated principally through thousands of dispersed enhancers, each individually <1 kb long and positioned from a few to hundreds of kilobases away from transcription start sites, upstream or downstream from coding genes or within introns. Wnt, Notch, and other epithelial control signals feed into these cis-regulatory DNA elements, which are also common loci of polymorphisms and mutations that confer disease risk. Cell-specific gene activity requires promoters to interact with the correct combination of signal-responsive enhancers. We review the current state of knowledge in ISCs regarding active enhancers, the nucleosome modifications that may enable appropriate and hinder inappropriate enhancer-promoter contacts, and the roles of lineage-restricted transcription factors.

Abstract
Personalizing health care by taking genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors into account is central to modern medicine. The crucial and pervasive roles epigenetic factors play in shaping gene-environment interactions are now well recognized. However, identifying robust epigenetic biomarkers and translating them to clinical tests has been difficult due in part to limitations of available platforms to detect epigenetic features genome-wide (epigenomic assays). This Feature introduces several important prospects for precision epigenomics, highlights capabilities and limitations of current laboratory technologies, and emphasizes opportunities for microfluidic tools to facilitate translation of epigenetic analyses to the clinic, with a particular focus on methods to profile gene-associated histone modifications and their impacts on chromatin structure and gene expression.
