Table 3.

Correlation of HERV-K (HML-2) at 1q22 to genes IL-8 and MPO that are common markers of neutrophil activity. Pearson’s correlation coefficient is used here. The correlation with IL-8 was statistically significant (p-value < 0.05) in the older individuals

Gene symbol Correlation, old p-value, old Correlation, young p-value, young
IL-8 0.832 0.020 0.180 0.699
MPO 0.509 0.244 0.247 0.593
