Most notably, our analysis identified cg08884395 and cg27514608, associated with genes ESR1 (estrogen receptor 1) and PPARGC1A (peroxisome proliferator activated receptor-γ coactivator 1-α), respectively, which both exhibited a negative association between methylation and arsenic exposure (linear trend p = 0.0009 for both).
