Accumulation of somatic changes, due to environmental and endogenous lesions, in the human genome is associated with aging and cancer. Understanding the impacts of these processes on mutagenesis is fundamental to understanding the etiology, and improving the prognosis and prevention of cancers and other genetic diseases. Previous methods relying on either the generation of induced pluripotent stem cells, or sequencing of single-cell genomes were inherently error-prone and did not allow independent validation of the mutations. In the current study we eliminated these potential sources of error by high coverage genome sequencing of single-cell derived clonal fibroblast lineages, obtained after minimal propagation in culture, prepared from skin biopsies of two healthy adult humans. We report here accurate measurement of genome-wide magnitude and spectra of mutations accrued in skin fibroblasts of healthy adult humans. We found that every cell contains at least one chromosomal rearrangement and 600–13,000 base substitutions. The spectra and correlation of base substitutions with epigenomic features resemble many cancers. Moreover, because biopsies were taken from body parts differing by sun exposure, we can delineate the precise contributions of environmental and endogenous factors to the accrual of genetic changes within the same individual. We show here that UV-induced and endogenous DNA damage can have a comparable impact on the somatic mutation loads in skin fibroblasts. ClinicalTrials.gov NCT01087307 Somatic genomes are constantly accumulating changes caused by endogenous lesions, errors in DNA replication and repair, as well as environmental insults. Despite the importance of somatic genome instability in aging and age-related pathologies, including cancers, accurate measurements of mutation loads in healthy cells is still missing. In this study, we developed an experimental approach to accurately determine the somatic genome changes accrued in cell lineages over the lifetime of healthy humans. We show that the amounts and types of mutations in skin cells resemble many cancers, thus indicating that the mechanisms that lead to carcinogenesis are also functional in healthy cells. Moreover, sun-exposed skin cells have a higher mutation load attributable to ultraviolet radiation (UV) unlike cells from hips that were protected by clothing. Our work provides precise measurements of the mutation loads in single cells in human skin. Furthermore our data allowed defining the mutagenic impacts of environmental and endogenous processes within the same individual and led to conclusion that these processes have a comparable impact on the somatic mutation load.
