Paternal CA exposure alters global DNA methylation levels in sperm cells. (a) Global DNA methylation levels in spermatozoa of F0CT;+/+, F0CA;+/+; F0CT;−/−; and F0CA;−/− mice. (b) Pie charts of the relative percentage of hyper- or hypo- DMRs in spermatozoa of F0CT;+/+, F0CA;+/+; F0CT;−/− and F0CA;−/− mice. (c) Volcano plots of comparisons of all DMR assessed in RRBS analysis of spermatozoa from F0CT;+/+, F0CA;+/+; F0CT−/−; and F0CA;−/− mice. (d) Representation of specific and common differentially methylated sequences in F0CT;+/+, F0CA;+/+; F0CT;−/−; and F0CA;−/− mice. RRBS was performed on 1 experiment on 3 samples per group. Each sample is a pool of 3 individual mice. For a data are expressed as means +/− SEM. n = 8–12 per group from 3 independent experiments. *p < 0.05 vs. control diet group.
