This tutorial outlines methods for adjusting cell proportions using DNA methylation data from peripheral blood. Techniques discussed include RefFreeEWAS and Surrogate Variable Analysis (SVA), which don’t require external datasets, as well as Houseman et al., which does. It provides R code samples for implementing these methodologies.
