Storage conditions and stability of global DNA methylation in placental tissue

AIM: The placenta is an informative and easily available tissue for many epidemiological studies. We analyzed the extent to which storage delay affects DNA methylation. MATERIAL & METHODS: Biopsies from two placentas were sequentially stored at -80°C after standing at room temperature for 30...

We analyzed the extent to which storage delay affects DNA methylation. MATERIAL & METHODS: Biopsies from two placentas were sequentially stored at -80°C after standing at room temperature for 30 min, 1 h, 2 h, 6 h and 24 h. Global DNA methylation was measured by bisulfite pyrosequencing of repetitive elements and the luminometric methylation assay. RESULTS: Small changes in global DNA methylation in relation to time-to-storage were observed by pyrosequencing, with a coefficient of variation (COV) of 2.49% (placenta 1) and 2.86% (placenta 2), similar to the mean technical variation observed for pyrosequencing (COV: 1.91 and 1.51%, respectively). A luminometric methylation assay yielded more variable results in the two placentas analyzed, both among time points (COV: 9.13 and 10.35%, respectively) and technical replicates (COV: 11.60 and 9.80%, respectively). CONCLUSION: Global DNA methylation is stable at room temperature. However, some techniques to measure methylation might be confounded by DNA degradation caused by a delay in storage.This study was funded by grants from the Spanish Ministry of Health (FIS-PI041436 and PI11/00610), Instituto de Salud Carlos III (Red Infancia y MedioAmbiente G03/176 and CB06/02/0041) and the Generalitat de Catalunya-Comissió Interdepartamental de Recerca i Innovació Tecnològica 1999SGR 00241.
