Project description:Genome-wide DNA methylation profiling of bead-enriched total monocytes collected from Native Hawaiian participants with known type 2 diabetes mellitus enrolled in a 3 month diabetes-specific social support education intervention. DNA methylation profiling was performed across ~450,000 CpGs from monocytes using the Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450 BeadChip. Samples included 8 participants with paired DNA methylation data collected at pre-intervention and post-intervention (3 months), and 2 non-diabetic donors.
