Testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs) have a unique epigenetic profile distinct from that of other types of cancer. To further evaluate epigenetics of TGCTs, this study examines DNA methylation patterns of DNA repetitive elements in TGCTs. Bisulfite genomic sequencing and combined bisulfite restriction analysis (COBRA) were used to analyze the methylation patterns of DNA repetitive elements (LINE1 and Alu repeats) in embryonal carcinoma (EC) derived cell lines, primary TGCT tissues, noncancerous testicular tissues adjacent to TGCTs and cancer cells derived from somatic tissues (testicular malignant lymphoma tissues and renal cell carcinoma cell lines). Through both bisulfite genomic sequencing and COBRA, LINE1 was extensively hypomethylated in both seminomatous and nonseminomatous TGCT tissues as well as EC cell lines. We studied two Alu repeats locating in the 5′ end ofE‐cadherinandXISTby bisulfite genomic sequencing. These two Alu elements were extensively hypomethylated in seminomatous TGCTs, but methylated in nonseminomatous TGCTs, including two EC derived cell lines. This increased unmethylated profile in seminomatous TGCTs was observed also by COBRA for Alu repeats. Although partial demethylation of DNA repetitive elements was observed in cancer cells of somatic tissue origin, the degree of demethylation was more pronounced in TGCTs than in cancer cells of somatic tissue origin. We observed abnormal demethylation of DNA repetitive elements in some of the tissues adjacent to TGCTs. The results indicate that the underlying mechanisms to undergo or maintain demethylation of DNA repetitive sequences differ between TGCTs and cancer cells of somatic tissue origin. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
