Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiling of 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 128 PD patients and 131 controls with saliva DNA.
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:Human DNA methylation Beadchip v1.2 was used to profile 508 whole blood samples. The main goal of the study was to relate Parkinson's disease status to measures of epigenetic age acceleration based on DNA methylation data. Here we focus on Caucasian subjects. 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.
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:In order to investigate age-correlated DNA methylation changes in saliva, genome-wide DNA methylation profiling was performed for saliva from 54 males aged 18 to 73 years. The Illumina Infinium 450k Human DNA methylation Beadchip was used to acquire DNA methylation profiles across about 450,000 CpGs in bisulfite converted DNA.
Project description:Human DNA methylation Beadchip v1.2 was used to profile n=84 whole blood samples from Hispanics living in the USA. The main goal of the study was to relate Parkinson's disease status to measures of epigenetic age acceleration based on DNA methylation data. Here we focus on Hispanic subjects. 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.
Project description:Human DNA methylation Beadchip v1.2 was used to analyze n=259 human saliva samples from Caucasians (non-Hispanic whites) and Hispanics collected from the PEG study (directed by Dr Beate Ritz). The main goal of the study was to measure the epigenetic age (also known as DNA methylation age) of saliva. 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.
