The correlation analysis between microarray and bisulphite sequencing data showed strong correlation (Pearson’s correlation coefficient, PCC > 0.85, P < 0.001) for SLC43A3 and CST11 and moderate correlation (PCC = 0.58, P = 0.07) for PI3. From four analysed CpG sites, only the CpG from SLC43A3 gene showed statistically significant differential methylation between MS patients and controls (P = 0.03). This evidence concerns the gene CST11 and myeloid sarcoma.
