Epigenetic regulation of transcription: a mechanism for inducing variations in phenotype (fetal programming) by differences in nutrition during early life?

The British journal of nutrition - 1 Jun 2007

Burdge Graham C, Hanson Mark A, Slater-Jefferies Jo L, Lillycrop Karen A

Abstract excerpt

There is considerable evidence for the induction of different phenotypes by variations in the early life environment, including nutrition, which in man is associated with a graded risk of metabolic disease; fetal programming. It is likely that the induction of persistent changes to tissue structure and function by differences in the early life environment involves life-long alterations to the regulation of gene...
