A pairwise Pearson's correlation was done to evaluate the relationship between biomarker levels in the young and old subjects combined. The r² values for each pairwise correlation is shown. The r² values ≥ 0.75 were used to identify networks using Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA). In data not shown Akt, NFκB and TGFβ pathways were common among these biomarkers.
