Compared to NOR, only IRAK1 was significantly overexpressed in PCa (Benjamini-Hochberg adjusted p<2x10-8), whereas the expression of IRAK4, MYD88, and TRAF6 was unchanged in PCa, and IRAK1-expression was inversely correlated with a specific differentially methylated region (IRAK1-DMR) within a predicted promoter region enriched for H3K27ac (Spearman correlation r<-0.36; Fisher’s test, p<10-10). This evidence concerns the gene IRAK4 and posterior cortical atrophy.
