Methylation data from healthy, adjacent normal and tumor colon cells

Methylation profiles of paired normal adjacent mucosa and tumor samples from 96 individuals and 48 healthy colon mucosae, were obtained through Illumina Infinium Human Methylation 450K BeadChip. This dataset is in the context of the COLONOMICS project and to query additional information you can visit the project website www.colonomics.org. Colon tumor and adjacent paired normal mucosa tissues samples used in this study were selected from a series of cases with a new diagnosis of colorectal adenocarcinoma histologically confirmed. Included cases were from a homogenous series of patients with more than three years of follow up, early stage (II), without neoadjuvant chemotherapy and microsatellite stable colon cancer. Additionally, samples of colon mucosa from 48 healthy donors without colonic lesions were obtained during colonoscopy.
