ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

Changing cell-type proportions can confound studies of differential gene expression or DNA methylation (DNAm) from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). We examined how cell-type proportions derived from the transcriptome versus the methylome (DNAm) influence estimates of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and differentially methylated positions (DMPs).

METHODS:

Transcriptome and DNAm data were obtained from PBMC RNA and DNA of Kenyan children (n = 8) before, during, and 6 weeks following uncomplicated malaria. DEGs and DMPs between time points were detected using cell-type adjusted modeling with Cibersortx or IDOL, respectively.

RESULTS:

Most major cell types and principal components had moderate to high correlation between the two deconvolution methods (r = 0.60-0.96). Estimates of cell-type proportions and DEGs or DMPs were largely unaffected by the method, with the greatest discrepancy in the estimation of neutrophils.

CONCLUSION:

Variation in cell-type proportions is captured similarly by both transcriptomic and methylome deconvolution methods for most major cell types.
