Abstract excerpt
Obesity impairs subcutaneous adipose tissue function, which predisposes to chronic cardiometabolic comorbidities and accelerated biological aging. However, regulatory variants, their target genes and epigenomic landscape underlying this predisposition in each subcutaneous adipose tissue cell-type remain elusive. Our subcutaneous adipose tissue cell-type level cis-expression quantitative trait and colocalization...
