Level of H3K4me2 and H3K4me3 in human adipocytes in relation to age of subjects. The levels of H3K4me2 (A) and H3K4me3 (B) were determined in isolated adipocytes from normal-weight and overweight (BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2) subjects and overweight subjects with T2D, and plotted against the age of donor subjects. There was no significant correlation between level of modification and age: P = 0.39 (A); P = 0.10 (B). Cells from all subjects were analyzed in three separate experiments and the median value was used in the subsequent analysis. a.u., arbitrary units.
