Aspirin Challenge-Induced Genome-Wide DNA Methylation Profile of Peripheral Blood Lymphocytes in Aspirin-Exacerbated Respiratory Disease.
DNA and Cell Biology 2024 Februrary 23
Genetic variation and epigenetic factors are thought to contribute to the development of hypersensitivity to aspirin. DNA methylation fluctuates dynamically throughout the day. To discover new CpG methylation in lymphocytes associated with aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD), we evaluated changes in global CpG methylation profiles from before to after an oral aspirin challenge in patients with AERD and aspirin-tolerant asthma (ATA). Whole-genome CpG methylation levels of peripheral blood mononuclear cells were quantified with an Illumina 860K Infinium Methylation EPIC BeadChip array and then adjusted for inferred lymphocyte fraction (ILF) with GLINT and Tensor Composition Analysis. Among the 866,091 CpGs in the array, differentially methylated CpGs (DMCs) were found in 6 CpGs in samples from all 12 patients with asthma included in the study (AERD, n = 6; ATA, n = 6). DMCs were found in 3 CpGs in the 6 ATA samples and in 615 CpGs in the 6 AERD samples. A total of 663 DMCs in 415 genes and 214 intergenic regions differed significantly in the AERD compared with the ATA. In promoters, 126 CpG loci were predicted to bind to 38 transcription factors (TFs), many of which were factors already known to be involved in the pathogenesis of asthma and immune responses. In conclusion, we identified 615 new CpGs methylated in peripheral blood lymphocytes by oral aspirin challenge in AERD but not in ATA. These findings indicate that oral aspirin challenge induces epigenetic changes in ILFs, specifically in AERD patients, possibly via changes in TF binding, which may have epigenetic effects on the development of AERD.
