Obesity is an important component of the pathophysiology of chronic diseases. Identifying
epigenetic modifications associated with elevated adiposity, including DNA methylation
variation, may point to genomic pathways that are dysregulated in numerous conditions. The
Illumina 450K Bead Chip array was used to assay DNA methylation in leukocyte DNA
obtained from 2097 African American adults in the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities
(ARIC) study. Mixed-effects regression models were used to test the association of …
