FlowSorted.BloodExtended.EPIC.compTable

Description

This object is a matrix of dimensions 1200 x 12 consisting of the average DNA methylation values fo the probes included in the IDOL optimized CpGs per each of the twelve cell types available to use in the EPIC platform. These CpGs are used as the backbone for deconvolution and were selected because their methylation signature differs across the twelve normal leukocyte subtypes.

Researchers who want to project directly their estimates with EPIC data can use this matrix of different cellular populations (neutrophils (Neu), eosinophils (Eos), basophils (Bas), monocytes (Mono), B lymphocytes naive (Bnv), B lymphocytes memory (Bmem), T helper lymphocytes na?ve (CD4nv), T helper lymphocytes memory (CD4mem), T regulatory cells (Treg), T cytotoxic lymphocytes na?ve (CD8nv), T cytotoxic lymphocytes memory (CD8mem), and natural killer lymphocytes (NK)).
