DNA methylation changes in CD4(+) T cells isolated from multiple sclerosis patients on dimethyl fumarate
BACKGROUND: Dimethyl fumarate is an oral treatment for multiple sclerosis, whose mechanism of action is not fully understood. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of dimethyl fumarate on DNA methylation in the CD4(+) T cells of multiple sclerosis patients. METHODS: We performed Illumina EPIC arrays...

description | BACKGROUND: Dimethyl fumarate is an oral treatment for multiple sclerosis, whose mechanism of action is not fully understood. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of dimethyl fumarate on DNA methylation in the CD4(+) T cells of multiple sclerosis patients. METHODS: We performed Illumina EPIC arrays to investigate the DNA methylation profiles of CD4(+) T cells derived from multiple sclerosis patients before and after dimethyl fumarate treatment. RESULTS: Treatment with dimethyl fumarate resulted in 97% of differentially methylated positions showing hypermethylation. Four genes, SNORD1A, SHTN1, MZB1 and TNF had a differentially methylated region located within the transcriptional start site. CONCLUSION: This study investigates the effect of dimethyl fumarate on DNA methylation in multiple sclerosis patients. |
