Is Epigenetics an Important Link between Early Life Events and Adult Disease?

1 Jan 2009

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Epigenetic mechanisms provide one potential explanation for how environmental influences in early life cause long-term changes in chronic disease susceptibility. Whereas epigenetic dysregulation is increasingly implicated in various rare developmental syndromes and cancer, the role of epigenetics in complex chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes and obesity, remains largely...
