Fig. 2

The direction of aging-association in 1202 a-CpGs is visualized as scatterplot. Each dot corresponds to single a-CpG; directions of associations correspond to estimates of age which are fetched from the regression models. Of 1202 sites, 987 CpG sites were similarly associated with aging in both the YFS and in the V90+ study. The analyses in both studies were adjusted for leukocyte cell subtype proportions, and the studies consisted of the samples with distinct age ranges: the YFS comprised 40 to 49 years old subjects whereas the V90+ study consisted of 19–30-year-old individuals and nonagenarians. The corresponding data illustrated in the Fig. 2 is presented in Additional file 3: Table S4
