Epigenetics in pediatrics.

Pediatrics in review - 1 Jan 2015

Puumala Susan E, Hoyme H Eugene

Abstract excerpt

Epigenetic mechanisms are external modifications of DNA that cause changes in gene function and are involved in many diseases. Specific examples of pediatric diseases with a known or suspected epigenetic component include Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome, childhood leukemia, allergies, asthma, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, childhood obesity, and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Currently, epigenetically active treatments...
