BLVRB and metabolic syndrome: Only two of these genes, ATP5E and BLVRB showed significant expression changes with multiple MetS components (waist circumference (FDR P = 9.0 *10−3) and TG (FDR P = 0.01); waist (FDR P = 5.7 *10−3) and HDL (FDR P = 4.3 *10−3) indicating that MetS gene expression differences were more pronounced in the fat depots, which became the main focus of further analysis.
