Our pEWAS (green lines) identified multiple proteins (blue octagons) and CpG sites (green circles) that are related to major anti-inflammatory pathways, and that could be directly connected via intermediate genes and proteins using IPA (yellow diamonds). NLRC5 and beta-2-microglobulin both regulate the major histocompatibility complex MHC class I genes through interaction with various interleukins and NFκB. NLRC5 methylation also associated with various metabolic inflammatory markers (orange triangles). Finally, the associated proteins were are also associated with various clinical phenotypes in KORA at multiple-testing corrected significance levels (purple rectangles). NLRC5 methylation is a hallmark of chronic inflammation and has been reported in association with several inflammation-related diseases (pink hexagons). Full annotations of these links are provided in Supplementary Note 4.
