“…For instance, we found proteins positively correlated with CpGs located in genes related to fatty acid metabolism, such as COMMD9 (involved in LDL regulation), 100 ARHGAP42 (associated with hypertension), 101 APOBEC1 (linked to weight loss and muscle development), 102 PTPRT, PTPRN2 (implicated in obesity), 103–106 and DACT1, DIO2, RPTOR, and PLEKHM3 (involved in muscle myogenesis and hypertrophy) 107–111 . Conversely, these proteins were negatively correlated with CpG sites located in genes such as KCNMA1, NOTCH1, CAMKK2 (related to skeletal muscle regeneration, proliferation, and differentiation), 112–117 DHRS3, DGKG, LPIN1, WNT5A (associated with obesity, metabolic syndrome, and lipid regulation), 118–120 LRRC2 (a mediator of mitochondrial and cardiac function), 121 and PDE4A (linked to diabetes) 122,123 . These associations provide valuable insights into the intricate relationships between specific genes, proteins, and exercise response.…”
