Our data showed that lipid and glucose metabolic pathways genes were expressed at higher levels in gluteofemoral adipocyte fraction in pears, while genes associated with inflammation were higher in both abdominal and gluteofemoral apple adipocyte fraction. Gluteofemoral adipocyte chromatin from pear-shaped women contained a significantly higher number of differentially open ATAC-seq peaks relative to chromatin from the apple-shaped gluteofemoral adipocytes. In contrast, abdominal adipocyte chromatin openness showed few differences between apple and pear-shaped women. We revealed a correlation between gene transcription and open chromatin at the proximity of the TSS of some of the differentially expressed genes. Overall design: Adipocytes isolated from Abdominal (A) and gluteofemoral (GF) adipose tissue obtained from premenopausal apple-shaped and pear-shaped women were used to perform transcriptome analysis by RNA-seq and assess accessible chromatin regions by ATAC-seq.
