Correlation between the most differentially regulated genes and their promotor methylation
Gene promoter/gene | Pearson coefficient | P value | Spearman’s rho | P-value |
---|---|---|---|---|
SPP1 | ns | −0.523 | 0.026 | |
ALDH3A1 | ns | −0.560 | 0.016 | |
TCN1 | ns | −0.521 | 0.027 |
The 130 most differentially regulated genes imported from our previous paper [17] were compared to corresponding gene promoter methylation levels. Significant correlations are shown (p < 0.05)
