Maternal B vitamins: effects on offspring weight and DNA methylation at genomically imprinted domains
22 Jan 2016
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Inadequate maternal nutrition during early fetal development can create permanent alterations in the offspring, leading to poor health outcomes. While nutrients involved in one-carbon cycle metabolism are important to fetal growth, associations with specific nutrients remain inconsistent. This study estimates associations between maternal vitamins B12, B6 (pyridoxal phosphate [PLP] and 4-pyridoxic...
