Summary (written by the submitters)
Cellular senescence is a stable proliferation arrest in response to stress, associated with an altered secretory pathway (Senescence Associated Secretory Phenotype (SASP)). Senescence-associated proliferation arrest and the SASP are thought to act in concert to promote tumor suppression and tissue aging. While chromatin regulation and down regulation of lamin B1 have been implicated as effectors of cell senescence, functional interactions between them are poorly understood.

We compared the genome-wide distributions of H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 between proliferating and senescent primary human cells and found dramatic differences, including large-scale domains of H3K4me3- and H3K27me3-enriched "mesas" and H3K27me3-depleted "canyons" in senescent cells. Senescent mesas form at the sites of lamin B1-associated domains (LADs) in proliferating cells. Mesas also overlap with regions that exhibit DNA hypomethylation in cancer, suggesting that chromatin changes in pre-malignant senescent cells foreshadow epigenetic changes in cancer. Proliferating fibroblasts from Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome patients expressing mutant lamin A (progerin) also show evidence of H3K4me3 mesas, suggesting a link between premature chromatin changes and accelerated cell senescence and tissue aging. In contrast, canyons form mostly in between LADs and are enriched in genes, gene promoters and enhancers. Strikingly, H3K27me3 loss in canyons is correlated with upregulation of key senescence genes, including genes comprising the SASP, indicating a link between global changes in chromatin structure and local regulation of gene expression. Finally, premature reduction of lamin B1 in midlife proliferating cells triggers formation of senescence-associated mesas and canyons and accelerated senescence. Together, our data illustrate a profound reorganization of chromatin during senescence, and suggest that down regulation of lamin B1 in senescence is a key trigger of global and local chromatin changes that impact gene expression, aging and cancer.

Download · which file do I need?

Direct links to NCBI and ENA, no account and no request form. Pick by what you want to do: take the small processed table to look, the supplementary files to re-analyse, or the original raw data to start over.

1 · Just have a look

Processed table

The series matrix: one table of values per sample as the submitters processed it. The smallest download, and it opens in Excel or R. Start here to see what the data look like.

2 · Re-analyse it

Supplementary files

The count tables and other files the authors uploaded. Take only the samples you need, or the whole study as GSE36616_RAW.tar (it can run to tens of gigabytes).

3 · Start from the raw reads

Raw sequencing reads

The original FASTQ files, straight from the sequencer, held at ENA. Large, and you align them yourself, so only choose this if you need to re-process the study from scratch.

What the files usually look like: Look for peak files (.bed, .narrowPeak) and signal tracks (.bigWig) among the supplementary files; the raw reads are on ENA.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA155425 and SRA study SRP011584. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
4 × Proliferating H3K27me3 ChIP vs 2 × Proliferating Histone 3 ChIP vs 2 × Senescent Histone 3 ChIP vs 2 × Senescent H3K27me3 ChIP

Supports a case/control comparison: 2 samples read as cases, 2 as controls.

How we read this: 4 replicated groups read from 17 sample titles; they account for 10 of them. These groups are guessed from the sample names, not taken from the paper, so check them against the sample list below before relying on them.
