We additionally identify differentially methylated targets between lean individuals and individuals with obesity, including TSC22D1, FMNL2 and IL1R1. By combining data from primary adipocytes with data from corresponding bulk adipose tissue, we identified a higher number of genes containing m6A in non-adipocyte cells in OVAT compared to SAT. This evidence concerns the gene IL1R1 and obesity due to melanocortin 4 receptor deficiency.
