TL;DR: The Collaborative Cross will provide a common reference panel specifically designed for the integrative analysis of complex systems and will change the way the authors approach human health and disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
A data-driven approach to preprocessing Illumina 450K methylation array data
Ruth Pidsley,Chloe C. Y. Wong,Manuela Volta,Katie Lunnon,Jonathan Mill,Jonathan Mill,Leonard C. Schalkwyk +6 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that quantile normalization methods produce marked improvement, even in highly consistent data, by all three metrics, and that careful selection of preprocessing steps can minimize variance and thus improve statistical power, especially for the detection of the small absolute DNA methylation changes likely associated with complex disease phenotypes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alzheimer's disease: early alterations in brain DNA methylation at ANK1, BIN1, RHBDF2 and other loci.
Philip L. De Jager,Gyan Srivastava,Katie Lunnon,Jeremy D. Burgess,Leonard C. Schalkwyk,Lei Yu,Matthew L. Eaton,Brendan T. Keenan,Jason Ernst,Cristin McCabe,Anna Tang,Towfique Raj,Joseph M. Replogle,Wendy Brodeur,Stacey Gabriel,High Seng Chai,Curtis S. Younkin,Steven G. Younkin,Fanggeng Zou,Moshe Szyf,Charles B. Epstein,Julie A. Schneider,Bradley E. Bernstein,Alexander Meissner,Nilufer Ertekin-Taner,Lori B. Chibnik,Manolis Kellis,Jonathan Mill,David A. Bennett +28 more
TL;DR: The analyses suggest that DNA methylation changes may have a role in the onset of AD given that they were observed in presymptomatic subjects and that six of the validated genes connect to a known AD susceptibility gene network.
Journal ArticleDOI
Functional annotation of the human brain methylome identifies tissue-specific epigenetic variation across brain and blood
Matthew N. Davies,Manuela Volta,Ruth Pidsley,Katie Lunnon,Abhishek Dixit,Simon Lovestone,Cristian Coarfa,R. Alan Harris,Aleksandar Milosavljevic,Claire Troakes,Safa Al-Sarraj,Richard Dobson,Leonard C. Schalkwyk,Jonathan Mill +13 more
TL;DR: This study reinforces the importance of DNA methylation in regulating cellular phenotype across tissues, and highlights genomic patterns of epigenetic variation across functionally distinct regions of the brain, providing a resource for the epigenetics and neuroscience research communities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Methylomic profiling implicates cortical deregulation of ANK1 in Alzheimer's disease
Katie Lunnon,Rebecca G. Smith,Eilis Hannon,Philip L. De Jager,Gyan Srivastava,Manuela Volta,Claire Troakes,Safa Al-Sarraj,Joe Burrage,Ruby Macdonald,Daniel Condliffe,Lorna W. Harries,Pavel Katsel,Vahram Haroutunian,Zachary Kaminsky,C Joachim,John Powell,Simon Lovestone,David A. Bennett,Leonard C. Schalkwyk,Jonathan Mill +20 more
TL;DR: This study represents, to the best of the knowledge, the first epigenome-wide association study of AD employing a sequential replication design across multiple tissues and highlights the power of this approach for identifying methylomic variation associated with complex disease.
