Genes in the vicinity of these rsCpGs were found to be enriched in Homeobox transcription factors and the Wnt signalling pathway, both of which are related to ageing processes. Furthermore, we investigated the SNP effect on the random slope. We found that 4 out of 1507 rsCpGs had one significant (P < 5 × 10−8/1507) SNP effect and 343 rsCpGs had at least one SNP effect (436 SNP-probe pairs) reaching genome-wide significance (P < 5 × 10−8). Ninety-five percent of the significant (P < 5 × 10−8) SNPs are on different chromosomes from their corresponding probes.\r\nConclusions: We identified CpG sites that have variability in the rate of change of DNA methylation between individuals, and our results suggest a genetic basis of this variation. Genes around these CpG sites have been reported to be involved in the ageing process."}],"date_published":"2018-10-22T00:00:00Z","issue":"1","article_processing_charge":"No","oa":1,"author":[{"full_name":"Zhang, Qian","first_name":"Qian","last_name":"Zhang"},{"last_name":"Marioni","full_name":"Marioni, Riccardo E","first_name":"Riccardo E"},{"last_name":"Robinson","full_name":"Robinson, Matthew Richard","first_name":"Matthew Richard","orcid":"0000-0001-8982-8813","id":"E5D42276-F5DA-11E9-8E24-6303E6697425"},{"last_name":"Higham","first_name":"Jon","full_name":"Higham, Jon"},{"full_name":"Sproul, Duncan","first_name":"Duncan","last_name":"Sproul"},{"first_name":"Naomi R","full_name":"Wray, Naomi R","last_name":"Wray"},{"last_name":"Deary","first_name":"Ian J","full_name":"Deary, Ian J"},{"first_name":"Allan F","full_name":"McRae, Allan F","last_name":"McRae"},{"last_name":"Visscher","first_name":"Peter M","full_name":"Visscher, Peter M"}],"intvolume":"        10","oa_version":"Published Version","day":"22","type":"journal_article","_id":"7717","publication":"Genome Medicine","status":"public","article_type":"original","volume":10,"title":"Genotype effects contribute to variation in longitudinal methylome patterns in older people","article_number":"75","date_created":"2020-04-30T10:42:50Z","publisher":"Springer Nature","main_file_link":[{"url":"https://doi.org/10.1186/s13073-018-0585-7","open_access":"1"}],"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"month":"10","publication_status":"published","quality_controlled":"1","citation":{"short":"Q.
