Summary: Genome wide DNA methylation profiling of non-pathologic peripheral blood from subjects with no history of cancer. The Illumina Infinium 27k Human DNA methylation Beadchip v1.2 was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles across approximately 27,000 CpGs in peripheral blood. Samples included 205 normal control peripheral blood samples.
