The methylation levels of cytosine phosphate guanine (CpG)_7, CpG_12, CpG_17, and CpG_20 were significantly higher in patients with B\u2010cell ALL than other immunotypes (p&lt;0.05). The methylation levels of CpG_13.14, CpG_17, and CpG_19 showed a significant negative correlation with MTX C<jats:sub>24\u00a0hr<\/jats:sub> (p&lt;0.05). The methylation level of CpG_8.9 correlated significantly with MTX C<jats:sub>42\u00a0hrs<\/jats:sub> (p&lt;0.05).
