Fig. 2. Differential 5hmC enrichment over chromatin states identified in PDAC primary tissue in PDAC cfDNA compared with non-cancer cfDNA samples.

Fig. 2

a Chromatin states observed in two primary PDAC tumor tissues as determined by 6 histone markers; H3K4me1, H3K4me3, H3K9me3, H3K27ac, H3K27me3, and H3K36me3. b Box plots depicting 5hmC occupancy in PDAC (n = 41) and non-cancer (NC, n = 38) cfDNA cohorts over the chromatin states determined in PDAC primary tissue samples. Center line represents median, bounds of box represent 25th and 75th percentiles and whiskers are Tukey whiskers. Statistical significance in PDAC vs non-cancer cfDNA enrichment, as determined by two-sided Wilcoxon test, is denoted by ** (p value < 0.00001) and * (p value < 0.0001). p-values are 1.85E−06 (active TSS), 1.28E−06 (flanking active TSS), 8.59E−06 (weak transcription), 4.28E−05 (weak enhancer) and 2.51E−05 (quiescent).
