Abstract excerpt

AIMS: This study examined links between DNA methylation and birth weight centile (BWC), and explored the impact of genetic variation. MATERIALS & METHODS: Using HumanMethylation450 arrays, we examined candidate gene-associated CpGs in cord blood from newborns with low (<15th centile), medium (40-60th centile) and high (>85th centile) BWC (n = 12). Candidates were examined in an investigation cohort (n = 110)...
