In epigenome-wide association studies (EWAS), different methylation profiles of distinct cell types may lead to false discoveries. We introduce ReFACTor, a method based on principal component analysis (PCA) and designed for the correction of cell type heterogeneity in EWAS. ReFACTor does not require knowledge of cell counts, and it provides improved estimates of cell type composition, resulting in improved power and control for false positives in EWAS. Corresponding software is available at http://www.cs.tau.ac.il/~heran/cozygene/software/refactor.html.
