Fig. 4From: The inactive X chromosome accumulates widespread epigenetic variability with agea Scatter plot of effect sizes for aVMCs for females and males in the discovery data set (BIOS Blood). Mean effect size of male-specific aVMCs in females were 0.4 times lower than that in males. b Scatter plot of aVMCs effect sizes in the discovery data sets and the Johansson Blood and Reynolds Monocytes replication datasets. Female-specific aVMCs, male-specific aVMCs and aVMCs statistically significant in both sexes are colored by red, blue and green, respectively. aVMCs, age-related variably methylated CpGsBack to article page
