The epigenetic basis of twin discordance in age-related diseases.

Pediatric research - 1 May 2007

Poulsen Pernille, Esteller Manel, Vaag Allan, Fraga Mario F

Abstract excerpt

Monozygotic twins share the same genotype because they are derived from the same zygote. However, monozygotic twin siblings frequently present many phenotypic differences, such as their susceptibility to disease and a wide range of anthropomorphic features. Recent studies suggest that phenotypic...
