Further validation of the top-ranked genes belonging to differentially methylated genes (DMGs) and DEGs revealed that TMEM184A, GREM2, SFN, KIR3DX1, HPGD, ESR1, BST2, PIK3CG and RNASE1 were significant candidate genes in ovarian endometriosis. The gene discussed is ESR1; the disease is ovarian endometriosis.
