MicroRNA (miRNA) is an epigenetic mechanism that modulates transcriptome responses to the environment and has been found to change in reaction to air pollution exposure. The data are limited regarding extracellular-vesicle (EV) miRNA variation associated with air pollution exposure during pregnancy and in susceptible populations who may be disproportionately exposed. This study aimed to identify EV-miRNA expression associated with ambient, residential exposure to PM<sub>2.5</sub>, PM<sub>10</sub>, NO<sub>2</sub>, O<sub>3</sub> and with traffic-related NO<sub>x</sub> in 461 participants of the MADRES cohort, a low income, predominantly Hispanic pregnancy cohort based in Los Angeles, CA. This study used residence-based modeled air pollution data as well as Nanostring panels for EVmiRNA extracted with Qiagen exoRNeasy kits to evaluate 483 miRNA in plasma in early and late pregnancy. Average air pollution exposures were considered separately for 1-day, 1-week, and 8-week windows before blood collection in both early and late pregnancy. This study identified 63 and 66 EV-miRNA significantly associated with PM<sub>2.5</sub> and PM<sub>10</sub>, respectively, and 2 miRNA associated with traffic-related NO<sub>X</sub> (False Discovery Rate-adjusted <i>P</i>-value < .05). Of 103 unique EV-miRNA associated with PM, 92% were associated with lung conditions according to HMDD (Human miRNA Disease Database) evidence. In particular, EV-miRNA previously identified with air pollution exposure also associated with PM<sub>2.5</sub> and PM<sub>10</sub> in this study were: miR-126, miR-16-5p, miR-187-3p, miR200b-3p, miR486-3p, and miR-582-3p. There were no significant differences in average exposures in early vs late pregnancy. Significant EV-miRNAs were only identified in late pregnancy with an 8-week exposure window, suggesting a vulnerable timeframe of exposure, rather than an acute response. These results describe a wide array of EV-miRNA for which expression is affected by PM exposure and may be in part mediating the biological response to ambient air pollution, with potential for health implications in pregnant women and their children.</p>","PeriodicalId":11774,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Epigenetics","volume":"10 1","pages":"dvae019"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2024-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11552520/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142617194","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Elevated pCO<sub>2</sub> exposure increased gene expression variability (transcriptional noise) in males but decreased noise in females, suggesting a sex-specific role of methylation in gene expression regulation. Functional annotation of genes with changes in transcript-level expression or containing DMLs revealed several enriched biological processes potentially involved in elevated pCO<sub>2</sub> response, including apoptotic pathways and signal transduction, as well as reproductive functions.

Previous studies have demonstrated that transgenerational exposure and disease-specific differential DNA methylation regions (DMRs) in sperm are observed and that ncRNA-mediated DNA methylation occurs. The current study was designed to determine if transgenerational exposure-specific ncRNAs exist in sperm. Specifically, toxicants with distinct mechanisms of action including the fungicide vinclozolin (anti-androgenic), pesticide dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (estrogenic), herbicide atrazine (endocrine disruptor at cyclic adenosine monophosphate level), and hydrocarbon mixture jet fuel (JP8) (aryl hydrocarbon receptor disruptor) were used to promote transgenerational disease phenotypes in F3 generation outbred rats. New aliquots of sperm, previously collected and used for DNA methylation analyses, were used in the current study for ncRNA sequencing analyses of nuclear RNA. Significant changes in transgenerational sperm ncRNA were observed for each transgenerational exposure lineage. The majority of ncRNA was small noncoding RNAs including piwi-interacting RNA, tRNA-derived small RNAs, microRNAs, rRNA-derived small RNA, as well as long ncRNAs. Although there was some overlap among the different classes of ncRNA across the different exposures, the majority of differentially expressed ncRNAs were exposure-specific with no overlapping ncRNA between the four different exposure lineages in the transgenerational F3 generation sperm nuclear ncRNAs. The ncRNA chromosomal locations and gene associations were identified for a small number of differential expressed ncRNA. Interestingly, an overlap analysis between the transgenerational sperm DMRs and ncRNA chromosomal locations demonstrated small populations of overlapping ncRNA, but a large population of non-overlapping ncRNAs. Observations suggest that transgenerational sperm ncRNAs have both exposure-specific populations within the different classes of ncRNA, as well as some common populations of ncRNAs among the different exposures. The lack of co-localization of many of the ncRNAs with previously identified transgenerational DMRs suggests a distal integration of the different epigenetic mechanisms. The potential use of ncRNA analyses for transgenerational toxicant exposure assessment appears feasible.</p>","PeriodicalId":11774,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Epigenetics","volume":"10 1","pages":"dvae014"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11529619/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142567124","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Vulnerable populations, such as adolescents undergoing maturity, are susceptible to the effects of TE exposure. The aim of this study was to analyze the association of hair TE concentration with DNA methylation in a sample from female adolescents living in two communities in the Colombian Caribbean coast. Hair and blood samples were obtained from 45 females, between 13 and 16 years of age. Seventeen TEs were quantified in hair samples. DNA methylation was measured in leukocytes using the Infinium MethylationEPIC BeadChip. Linear models were employed to identify differentially methylated positions (DMPs) adjusting for age, body mass index, mother's education, and cell type composition. Among the tested elements, vanadium, chromium, nickel, copper, zinc, yttrium, tin, and barium were significantly associated with DMPs (false discovery rate < 0.05), registering 225, 1, 2, 184, 1, 209 189, and 104 hits, respectively. Most of the DMPs were positively associated with TEs and located in open sea regions. The greatest number of DMPs was annotated to the <i>HOXA3</i> and <i>FOXO3</i> genes, related to regulation of gene expression and oxidative stress, respectively.
