    • Background: Diabetes in pregnancy is associated with increased risk of long-term metabolic disease in the offspring, potentially mediated by in utero epigenetic variation. Previously, we identified multiple differentially methylated single CpG sites in offspring of women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), but whether stretches of differentially methylated regions (DMRs) can also be identified in adolescent GDM offspring is unknown. Here, we investigate which DNA regions in adolescent offspring are differentially methylated in blood by exposure to diabetes in pregnancy. The secondary aim was to characterize the RNA expression of the identified DMR, which contained the nc886 non-coding RNA. Methods: To identify DMRs, we employed the bump hunter method in samples from young (9–16 yr, n = 92) offspring of women with GDM (O-GDM) and control offspring (n = 94). Validation by pyrosequencing was performed in an adult offspring cohort (age 28–33 years) consisting of O-GDM (n = 82), offspring exposed to maternal type 1 diabetes (O-T1D, n = 67) and control offspring (O-BP, n = 57). RNA-expression was measured using RT-qPCR in subcutaneous adipose tissue and skeletal muscle. Results: One significant DMR represented by 10 CpGs with a bimodal methylation pattern was identified, located in the nc886/VTRNA2-1 non-coding RNA gene. Low methylation status across all CpGs of the nc886 in the young offspring was associated with maternal GDM. While low methylation degree in adult offspring in blood, adipose tissue, and skeletal muscle was not associated with maternal GDM, adipose tissue nc886 expression was increased in O-GDM compared to O-BP, but not in O-T1D. In addition, adipose tissue nc886 expression levels were positively associated with maternal pre-pregnancy BMI (p = 0.006), but not with the offspring’s own adiposity. Conclusions: Our results highlight that nc886 is a metastable epiallele, whose methylation in young offspring is negatively correlated with maternal obesity and GDM status. The physiological effect of nc886 may be more important in adipose tissue than in skeletal muscle. Further research should aim to investigate how nc886 regulation in adipose tissue by exposure to GDM may contribute to development of metabolic disease.

  • Genetic and functional insights into CDA-I prevalence and pathogenesis
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: Journal of Medical Genetics. - : BMJ Publishing Group Ltd. - 0022-2593 .- 1468-6244. ; 58:3, s. 185-195

    • Background Congenital dyserythropoietic anaemia type I (CDA-I) is a hereditary anaemia caused by biallelic mutations in the widely expressed genes CDAN1 and C15orf41. Little is understood about either protein and it is unclear in which cellular pathways they participate. Methods Genetic analysis of a cohort of patients with CDA-I identifies novel pathogenic variants in both known causative genes. We analyse the mutation distribution and the predicted structural positioning of amino acids affected in Codanin-1, the protein encoded by CDAN1. Using western blotting, immunoprecipitation and immunofluorescence, we determine the effect of particular mutations on both proteins and interrogate protein interaction, stability and subcellular localisation. Results We identify six novel CDAN1 mutations and one novel mutation in C15orf41 and uncover evidence of further genetic heterogeneity in CDA-I. Additionally, population genetics suggests that CDA-I is more common than currently predicted. Mutations are enriched in six clusters in Codanin-1 and tend to affect buried residues. Many missense and in-frame mutations do not destabilise the entire protein. Rather C15orf41 relies on Codanin-1 for stability and both proteins, which are enriched in the nucleolus, interact to form an obligate complex in cells. Conclusion Stability and interaction data suggest that C15orf41 may be the key determinant of CDA-I and offer insight into the mechanism underlying this disease. Both proteins share a common pathway likely to be present in a wide variety of cell types; however, nucleolar enrichment may provide a clue as to the erythroid specific nature of CDA-I. The surprisingly high predicted incidence of CDA-I suggests that better ascertainment would lead to improved patient care.
