DNA methylation and gene expression analysis in adipose tissue to identify new loci associated with T2D development in obesity

Abstract Background Obesity is accompanied by excess adipose fat storage, which may lead to adipose dysfunction, insulin resistance, and type 2 diabetes (T2D). Currently, the tendency to develop T2D in obesity cannot be explained by genetic variation alone—epigenetic mechanisms, such as DNA methylat...
