Validation of a DNA methylation reference panel for the estimation of nucleated cells types in cord blood
26 Sept 2016
Abstract excerpt
Cord blood is widely used as surrogate tissue in epigenome-wide association studies of prenatal conditions. Cell type composition variation across samples can be an important confounder of epigenome-wide association studies in blood that constitute a mixture of cells. We evaluated a newly developed cord blood reference panel to impute cell type composition from DNA methylation levels, including nucleated red...
