Cell type-specific DNA methylation in neonatal cord tissue and cord blood: a 850K-reference panel and comparison of cell types
Accounting for cellular heterogeneity is essential in neonatal epigenome-wide association studies (EWAS) performed on heterogeneous tissues, such as umbilical cord tissue (CT) or cord blood (CB). Using a reference-panel-based statistical approach, the cell type composition of heterogeneous tissues c...
