    Description: DNA methylation is essential for normal development and has been implicated in many pathologies including cancer. Our knowledge about the genome-wide distribution of DNA methylation, how it changes during cellular differentiation and how it relates to histone methylation and other chromatin modifications in mammals remains limited. Here we report the generation and analysis of genome-scale DNA methylation profiles at nucleotide resolution in mammalian cells. Using high-throughput reduced representation bisulphite sequencing and single-molecule-based sequencing, we generated DNA methylation maps covering most CpG islands, and a representative sampling of conserved non-coding elements, transposons and other genomic features, for mouse embryonic stem cells, embryonic-stem-cell-derived and primary neural cells, and eight other primary tissues. Several key findings emerge from the data. First, DNA methylation patterns are better correlated with histone methylation patterns than with the underlying genome sequence context. Second, methylation of CpGs are dynamic epigenetic marks that undergo extensive changes during cellular differentiation, particularly in regulatory regions outside of core promoters. Third, analysis of embryonic-stem-cell-derived and primary cells reveals that 'weak' CpG islands associated with a specific set of developmentally regulated genes undergo aberrant hypermethylation during extended proliferation in vitro, in a pattern reminiscent of that reported in some primary tumours. More generally, the results establish reduced representation bisulphite sequencing as a powerful technology for epigenetic profiling of cell populations relevant to developmental biology, cancer and regenerative medicine.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2896277/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2896277/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Meissner, Alexander -- Mikkelsen, Tarjei S -- Gu, Hongcang -- Wernig, Marius -- Hanna, Jacob -- Sivachenko, Andrey -- Zhang, Xiaolan -- Bernstein, Bradley E -- Nusbaum, Chad -- Jaffe, David B -- Gnirke, Andreas -- Jaenisch, Rudolf -- Lander, Eric S -- R01 HG004401/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- R01 HG004401-02/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- U54 HG003067/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- U54 HG003067-04/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- U54 HG003067-06/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2008 Aug 7;454(7205):766-70. doi: 10.1038/nature07107.

    Description: Somatic cells can be reprogrammed to a pluripotent state through the ectopic expression of defined transcription factors. Understanding the mechanism and kinetics of this transformation may shed light on the nature of developmental potency and suggest strategies with improved efficiency or safety. Here we report an integrative genomic analysis of reprogramming of mouse fibroblasts and B lymphocytes. Lineage-committed cells show a complex response to the ectopic expression involving induction of genes downstream of individual reprogramming factors. Fully reprogrammed cells show gene expression and epigenetic states that are highly similar to embryonic stem cells. In contrast, stable partially reprogrammed cell lines show reactivation of a distinctive subset of stem-cell-related genes, incomplete repression of lineage-specifying transcription factors, and DNA hypermethylation at pluripotency-related loci. These observations suggest that some cells may become trapped in partially reprogrammed states owing to incomplete repression of transcription factors, and that DNA de-methylation is an inefficient step in the transition to pluripotency. We demonstrate that RNA inhibition of transcription factors can facilitate reprogramming, and that treatment with DNA methyltransferase inhibitors can improve the overall efficiency of the reprogramming process.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2754827/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2754827/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Mikkelsen, Tarjei S -- Hanna, Jacob -- Zhang, Xiaolan -- Ku, Manching -- Wernig, Marius -- Schorderet, Patrick -- Bernstein, Bradley E -- Jaenisch, Rudolf -- Lander, Eric S -- Meissner, Alexander -- U54 HG003067/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- U54 HG003067-04/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2008 Jul 3;454(7200):49-55. doi: 10.1038/nature07056.

    Description: Somatic cell nuclear transfer and transcription-factor-based reprogramming revert adult cells to an embryonic state, and yield pluripotent stem cells that can generate all tissues. Through different mechanisms and kinetics, these two reprogramming methods reset genomic methylation, an epigenetic modification of DNA that influences gene expression, leading us to hypothesize that the resulting pluripotent stem cells might have different properties. Here we observe that low-passage induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) derived by factor-based reprogramming of adult murine tissues harbour residual DNA methylation signatures characteristic of their somatic tissue of origin, which favours their differentiation along lineages related to the donor cell, while restricting alternative cell fates. Such an 'epigenetic memory' of the donor tissue could be reset by differentiation and serial reprogramming, or by treatment of iPSCs with chromatin-modifying drugs. In contrast, the differentiation and methylation of nuclear-transfer-derived pluripotent stem cells were more similar to classical embryonic stem cells than were iPSCs. Our data indicate that nuclear transfer is more effective at establishing the ground state of pluripotency than factor-based reprogramming, which can leave an epigenetic memory of the tissue of origin that may influence efforts at directed differentiation for applications in disease modelling or treatment.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3150836/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3150836/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kim, K -- Doi, A -- Wen, B -- Ng, K -- Zhao, R -- Cahan, P -- Kim, J -- Aryee, M J -- Ji, H -- Ehrlich, L I R -- Yabuuchi, A -- Takeuchi, A -- Cunniff, K C -- Hongguang, H -- McKinney-Freeman, S -- Naveiras, O -- Yoon, T J -- Irizarry, R A -- Jung, N -- Seita, J -- Hanna, J -- Murakami, P -- Jaenisch, R -- Weissleder, R -- Orkin, S H -- Weissman, I L -- Feinberg, A P -- Daley, G Q -- CA86065/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- DP1 OD000256/OD/NIH HHS/ -- DP1 OD000256-01/OD/NIH HHS/ -- HL099999/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- K99 HL093212/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- K99 HL093212-01/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- K99 HL093212-02/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- K99HL093212-01/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- P50HG003233/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA086065/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 DK059279/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R01 DK059279-02/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R01 DK059279-10/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R01 DK070055/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R01 DK070055-01/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM083084/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM083084-04/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01-DK59279/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R01-DK70055/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R01AI047457/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01AI047458/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R37 HD045022/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- R37CA054358/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- RC2 HL102815/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- RC2 HL102815-01/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- RC2-HL102815/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- Howard Hughes Medical Institute/ -- England -- Nature. 2010 Sep 16;467(7313):285-90. doi: 10.1038/nature09342.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Stem Cell Transplantation Program, Division of Pediatric Hematology/Oncology, Manton Center for Orphan Disease Research, Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Children's Hospital Boston and Dana Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, Massachusetts 02115, USA〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20644535" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
