Epigenetic studies in Developmental Origins of Health and Disease: pitfalls and key considerations for study design and interpretation.

Journal of developmental origins of health and disease - 1 Feb 2017

Yamada L, Chong S

Abstract excerpt

The field of Developmental Origins of Health and Disease (DOHaD) seeks to understand the relationships between early-life environmental exposures and long-term health and disease. Until recently, the molecular mechanisms underlying these phenomena were poorly understood; however, epigenetics has been proposed to bridge the gap between the environment and phenotype. Epigenetics involves the study of heritable...
