From: DNA methylation of FKBP5 in South African women: associations with obesity and insulin resistance
GR and FKBP5 mRNA expression in gluteal (GSAT) and abdominal (ASAT) adipose tissue. Relative mRNA expression of GR in GSAT (a) and ASAT (b) and FKBP5 in GSAT (c) or ASAT (d) from normal weight (NW) and obese South African women. Data represent mean ± SD (GSAT, n = 27 per group; ASAT, n = 13–22 per group). Spearman’s correlation analysis of FKBP5 CpG542 and CPG543 methylation and FKBP5 mRNA levels in GSAT (e) and ASAT (f) from normal weight and obese black and white South African women (n = 27 per group). Linear regression lines used for descriptive purposes only
