In the correlation analyses, we found that the SAT bulk expression of the lncRNA, AC002066.1 , was significantly positively correlated with the adipocyte diameter in a BMI-dependent way as a significant correlation was observed in the lower BMI twin siblings from each BMI-discordant MZ pair (adipocyte diameter: Spearman’s rho = 0.55, p adj = 0.0023) ( Figure 5 E; Table S13 ), while the higher BMI twin siblings from each BMI-discordant MZ pair showed only nominally significant p values ( Figure 5 D; Table S13 ).

We found the difference in module scores between the individuals with and without the rs10494217 T risk allele to be highly significant ( p KOBS = 1.46 × 10 −40 , p RYSA = 3.53 × 10 −22 ), consistently in both cohorts ( Figures 4 B and 4C).
