Epigenetics at the epicenter of modern medicine.

JAMA - 19 Mar 2008

Feinberg Andrew P

Abstract excerpt

Epigenetics, the study of non-DNA sequence-related heredity, is at the epicenter of modern medicine because it can help to explain the relationship between an individual's genetic background, the environment, aging, and disease. It can do so because the epigenetic state varies among tissues and during a lifetime, whereas the DNA sequence remains essentially the same. As cells adapt to a changing internal and...
