  1. Bold indicated that the results were statistically significant.
  2. Multiple linear regression models were used to test the associations between methylation levels of BIN1 promoter and CSF biomarkers, adjusting for age, gender, education, APOE ɛ4 status, and interaction between methylation and APOE ε4 status.
  3. CSF cerebrospinal fluid, amyloid-β, p-tau phosphorylated tau protein, t-tau total tau protein, APOE apolipoprotein E gene, BIN1 bridging integrator 1 gene promoter, BIN1_01 01 region of bridging integrator 1 gene promoter.
