Matsuda insulin sensitivity–correlated transcripts of Entrez ID genes in adipose tissue associated with a SNP (q value <0.04) within ±500 Kb of the 5′ and 3′ end of the transcript in AAGMEx are shown. Data for most significantly associated genotyped cis-eSNP in AAGMEx are presented. Data on European ancestry males are from the METSIM cohort (Civelek et al. [20]). In AAGMEx: ρ, Spearman partial correlation coefficient; P value, significance level of correlation of transcript level with Matsuda index in Spearman partial correlation analysis; A1, minor allele; β, effect size of minor allele (A1); eQTL_P value, significance in additive model (in MatrixEQTL analysis). In METSIM: β, β value; P value, significance level of correlation of transcript level with Matsuda index in linear regression analysis; alt_allele, alternative allele; β*, effect size for alternative allele of best cis-eSNP in FaST-LMM eQTL analysis. Results for all significant probes are shown in Supplementary Table 4. Top cis-eSNPs are not the same in both cohorts, but comparison of their effects is shown in Supplementary Table 4A and B and in Supplementary Fig. 3. Chr, chromosome.
