Preprocessed reduced representation bisulfite sequencing (RRBS) data from 173 human umbilical cord blood samples, collected for a study on associations between perinatal DNA methylation marks and progression to type 1 diabetes by age 15

ABSTRACT: The samples were collected from the participants of the Finnish Diabetes Prediction and Prevention (DIPP) Study, born between 1995 and 2006. DIPP is a prospective follow-up cohort of children with a moderate or high risk of type 1 diabetes, based on the HLA-DR-DQ genotype. Islet cell autoantibodies (ICA, GADA, IAA, IA2A and ZnT8A) were measured 1 - 4 times per year until age 15 or year 2018. The aim was to study associations between perinatal DNA methylation marks and later progression to type 1 diabetes. Case individuals who became persistently positive for at least two biochemical autoantibodies (GADA, IAA, IA2A or ZnT8A) and/or were diagnosed with type 1 diabetes during the follow-up were compared to the control individuals who remained autoantibody-negative throughout the follow-up.
