Differentially Methylated Regions

[Fernas]

Dear all,

I am wondering if someone knows if there is any validation dataset (cell types, human or mouse ..etc, normal or patients) which contains validated differentially methylated regions DMR (or CpG positions).
I need this data in order to use it to test some differentially methylated CpGs (regions) if they are correct or not.

There's the annotation data from the Illumina human methylation chip, which should contain probes that have been tested and found to be differentially methylated in the human population.

Thanks very much @gringer for your reply.
Is this annotation data available for public download? if yes, can you please post a link to that resource.
I tried to read about (Illumina human methylation chip) from http://www.illumina.com/products/met...chip_kits.ilmn
While I found information about DMR, but did not find link to such data.

Thanks in advance,

Here are two links:

* Illumina website -- from the page you linked to, go to product support page, then downloads, then product files

* Bioconductor packages -- Illumina is there under 'I'
