More Details: Abstract Background Alterations in DNA methylation (DNAm) have been observed in patients with fatty liver, but whether they are cause or consequence remains unknown. The study aimed to investigate longitudinal association of epigenome-wide DNAm with liver fat content (LFC) in Chinese participants, and explore their temporal relationships. Methods Data were obtained from 2 waves over a four-year time period of the Shanghai Changfeng Study (discovery, n = 407 and replication, n = 126). LFC and peripheral blood DNAm were repeatedly measured using quantitative hepatic ultrasonography and the 850 K Illumina EPIC BeadChip, respectively. Longitudinal and cross-sectional epigenome-wide association studies (EWASs) were conducted with linear mixed model and linear regression model, respectively. Meta-analysis was performed using METAL. Cross-lagged panel analysis (CLPA) was carried out to infer temporal relationships between the significant CpGs and LFC. Results Longitudinal EWAS identified cg11024682 (SREBF1), cg06500161 (ABCG1), cg16740586 (ABCG1), cg15659943 (ABCA1) and cg00163198 (SNX19) significantly associated with LFC with P
