Prenatal exposure to triclosan assessed in multiple urine samples and placental DNA methylation

Paulina Jedynak, Lucile Broseus, Jorg Tost, Florence Busato, Stephan Gabet, Cathrine Thomsen, Amrit K. Sakhi, Isabelle Pin, Remy Slama, Johanna Lepeule, Claire Philippat

Summary: A previous study found positive associations between maternal urinary concentrations of triclosan and placental DNA methylation in male fetuses. This study aimed to validate and expand on these findings by examining triclosan exposure and placental DNA methylation in a cohort of male and female fetuses. The results confirmed associations between triclosan and certain genes in both sexes, with the majority of associations being positive and mapping to imprinted genes. The study also identified mediation effects of placental tissue heterogeneity on the associations. In conclusion, triclosan exposure is associated with placental DNA methylation, particularly in imprinted genes.

Navigating the hydroxymethylome: experimental biases and quality control tools for the tandem bisulfite and oxidative bisulfite Illumina microarrays

Ze Zhang, Min Kyung Lee, Laurent Perreard, Karl T. Kelsey, Brock C. Christensen, Lucas A. Salas

Summary: This study compared the data quality of BS-treated and oxBS-treated samples and observed a consistent loss of high-quality data in oxBS-treated samples. The authors offer a bioinformatic tool to evaluate potential quality issues in the process and provide some technical advice to reduce false signals in the data. Therefore, they emphasize the importance of preserving DNA integrity when using tandem BS- and oxBS-treated DNA to measure 5-methylcytosine and 5hmC.

A systematic evaluation of normalization methods and probe replicability using infinium EPIC methylation data

H. Welsh, C. M. P. F. Batalha, W. Li, K. L. Mpye, N. C. Souza-Pinto, M. S. Naslavsky, E. J. Parra

Summary: This study evaluated the performance of different normalization methods on the Infinium EPIC array and found that the SeSAMe 2 method was the best performing method, while quantile-based methods were the worst performing. Normalizing the data with SeSAMe 2 improved the reproducibility of CpG sites, suggesting that the reliability of the data is primarily due to limited biological variation rather than technical measurement variation.

RhoC in association with TET2/WDR5 regulates cancer stem cells by epigenetically modifying the expression of pluripotency genes

Pavana Thomas, Sweta Srivastava, Avinash H. Udayashankara, Samyuktha Damodaran, Lokendra Yadav, Boby Mathew, Srinag Bangalore Suresh, Amit Kumar Mandal, Nirmala Srikantia

Summary: This study uncovers a novel role for nuclear RhoC in the epigenetic regulation of Nanog and identifies RhoC as a regulator of CSCs in cervical cancer. It reveals that RhoC regulates tumor phenotypes such as clonogenicity and anoikis resistance, and its over-expression results in up-regulation of a large portion of the genome and demethylation. Further investigations demonstrate that RhoC associates with WDR5 in the nucleus and regulates the expression of pluripotency genes. Clinical specimen-based investigations also reveal the existence of a subset of tumor cells marked by RhoC(+)/Nanog(+) expression.

Stevenson, Peter de Blank, John P. Perentesis, Richard J. Gilbertson, Hao Li, Jie Ma, Wenhao Zhou, Michael D. Taylor, Q. Richard Lu

Summary: In this study, single-cell profiling of human fetal cerebella was performed to investigate the cellular states and regulatory networks in medulloblastomas (MBs). The researchers found a unique transitional cerebellar progenitor population enriched in aggressive MB subgroups and identified transcriptional determinants HNRNPH1 and SOX11 that are correlated with prognosis in group 3 MBs. Genomic analysis revealed long-range chromatin loops connecting HNRNPH1/SOX11-targeted super-enhancers to regulatory elements of the oncogenic driver MYC in group 3 MBs. Targeting the transitional progenitor regulators inhibited MYC expression and MB growth. This study provides new insights into the cellular and molecular characteristics of MBs, which may have implications for disease prognosis and potential therapeutic strategies.
