However, most studies of smoking and DNAm have been done using blood and other easily accessible tissues in humans, while evidence from more directly affected tissues such as the lungs is lacking. Here, we identified DNAm patterns in the lungs that are altered by smoking. We used an established mouse model to measure the effects of chronic smoke exposure first on lung phenotype immediately after smoking and then after a period of smoking cessation. Next, we determined whether our mouse model recapitulates previous DNAm patterns observed in smoking humans, specifically measuring DNAm at a candidate gene responsive to cigarette smoke, <i>Cyp1a1</i>. Finally, we carried out epigenome-wide DNAm analyses using the newly released Illumina mouse methylation microarrays. Our results recapitulate some of the phenotypes and DNAm patterns observed in human studies but reveal 32 differentially methylated genes specific to the lungs which have not been previously associated with smoking. The affected genes are associated with nicotine dependency, tumorigenesis and metastasis, immune cell dysfunction, lung function decline, and COPD.

The results showed that the m6A level of circRBM33 was abnormally increased in Ang II-induced VSMCs. In addition, METTL3 positively regulated circRBM33 expression. YTHDC1 deficiency decreased circRBM33 expression but had no effect on RBM33 mRNA expression. Notably, neither METTL3 nor YTHDC1 influenced the stability of circRBM33 or RBM33 mRNA. The interaction between circRBM33 and METTL3/YTHDC1 was verified by RIP analysis. Moreover, the Ang II-induced increase in circRBM33 expression was reversed by cycloleucine (an inhibitor of m6A methylation). Importantly, the m6A modification and expression of circRBM33 in the circRBM33-m6A-mut2-expressing VSMCs were not altered by METTL3 silencing. Mechanistically, METTL3/YTHDC1 modulates the biogenesis of circRBM33 in an m6A-dependent manner. In addition, circRBM33 knockdown alleviated AAA by reducing ECM degradation in the Ang II-infused mice. In conclusion, this study demonstrated that METTL3/YTHDC1-mediated m6A modification modulates the biogenesis of circRBM33 from exons of the RBM33 gene. Moreover, knockdown of circRBM33 alleviated AAA by reducing ECM degradation, which may provide a novel therapeutic strategy for treating AAA.</p>","PeriodicalId":11767,"journal":{"name":"Epigenetics","volume":"19 1","pages":"2392401"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11385162/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142153399","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
