There are several different types of DMRs. These include tissue-specific DMR (tDMR), cancer-specific DMR (cDMR), development stages (dDMRs), reprogramming-specific DMR (rDMR), allele-specific DMR (AMR), and aging-specific DMR (aDMR). DNA methylation is associated with

regulation. The biological samples can be different cells/tissues within the same individual, the same cell/tissue at different times, cells/tissues from different individuals, even different alleles in the same cell.
