Project description:Human DNA methylation Beadchip v1.2 was used to obtain n=113 Illumina DNA methylation array from whole blood samples. The main goal of the study was to measure the epigenetic age (also known as DNA methylation age) of subjects with a severe developmental disorder (known as syndrome X) and controls. To measure DNA methylation age, we used the epigenetic clock software described in Horvath S (n=2013) DNA methylation age of human tissues and cell types. Genome Biology.2013, 14:R115. DOI: 10.1186/10.1186/gb-2013-14-10-r115 PMID: 24138928.

Further, the study includes two syndrome X-like subjects who also have Down syndrome and Ring- X Turner syndrome, respectively. For the diseased subjects, we collected several family members (parents and possibly siblings). We also collected several control families who do not have an affected child. Apart from family data, we also analyzed 62 blood samples from healthy controls.
Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiling of whole blood and saliva samples in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients and PD-free controls. The Illumina Infinium 450k Human DNA methylation Beadchip was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles. Samples included 335 PD patients and 237 controls with blood DNA.
Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiling of FASD patients versus healthy unexposed controls. The Illumina Infinium 450k Human DNA methylation Beadchip was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles across approximately 485,000 CpGs in peripheral blood samples. Samples included 28 healthy controls and7 FASD patients.

Samples included 64 healthy controls and 39 FASD patients.
Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation association analysis of Parkinson's disease and control samples. The Illumina Infinium 450k Human DNA methylation Beadchip was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles across approximately 450,000 CpGs in blood samples. Samples included 1001 Parkinson's disease cases and 973 controls.
Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiling of peripheral blood samples. The Illumina Infinium 450k Human DNA methylation Beadchip was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles across approximately 450,000 CpGs. Samples included 63 of male samples,and 54 of female samples from peripheral leukocytes. All samples were healthy controls.
Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiling of female Crohn's disease patients versus healthy female controls. The Illumina Infinium 450k Human DNA methylation Beadchip was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles across approximately 485,000 CpGs in peripheral blood samples. Samples included 25 healthy controls and 18 female patients with histologically confirmed CD.
Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiling in the whole blood samples of healthy controls and major depression disorder (MDD) patients who have never been treated with depression medication. The Illumina Infinium 450k Human DNA methylation Beadchip can assay over 480K CpG sites with bisulfite-converted genomic DNA and has been widely used in methylome-wide association studies (MWAS). Samples included 40 healthy controls and 40 MDD patients who have never been treated with depression medication.
Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiling of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients and healthy controls. The Illumina Infinium 450k Human DNA methylation Beadchip was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). Samples included 25 RA patients and 18 healthy controls.
