Longitudinal DNA Methylation Profiling of the Rectal Mucosa Identifies Cell-specific Signatures of Disease Status, Severity and Clinical Outcomes in Ulcerative Colitis
2022-01-30
Abstract excerpt
In peripheral blood, DNA methylation (DNAm) patterns in inflammatory bowel disease patients reflect inflammatory status rather than disease status. Here, we studied DNAm in diseased rectal mucosa from ulcerative colitis (UC) patients, conducting a cell-type-specific EWAS in epithelial, immune and fibroblast cells to understand DNAm changes across disease states, course, and clinical outcomes. At diagnosis, rectal...
