Intermediary role of DNAm in the genetic risk of MCTD. (A) Summary of relationships between PHRF1-genotype (rs12362352), DNAm at IRF7 (cg17114584), and MCTD. The p-values shown were obtained in the corresponding meQTL, EWAS, or genetic association analyses. (B) G minor allele for PHRF1-genotype (rs12362352) is associated with a decreased in DNAm at IRF7 gene (cg17114584). (C) DNAm at DNAm at IRF7 gene (cg17114584) shows decreases DNAm levels in MCTD patients than controls (CTRL). (D) G minor allele for PHRF1-genotype (rs12362352) is associated with increased MCTD risk. (E) Summary of relationships between HLA-B-genotype (rs2507991), DNAm at HLA-B (cg23923934), and MCTD. (F) A minor allele for HLA-B-genotype (rs2507991) is associated with an increased in DNAm at HLA-B gene (cg23923934). (G) DNAm at HLA-B gene (cg23923934) shows decreases DNAm levels in MCTD patients than controls (CTRL). (H) A minor allele for HLA-B-genotype (rs2507991) is associated with decreased MCTD risk.
