Familial resemblances in blood leukocyte DNA methylation levels.

Epigenetics - 1 Nov 2016

Tremblay Bénédicte L, Guénard Frédéric, Lamarche Benoît, Pérusse Louis, Vohl Marie-Claude

Abstract excerpt

Epigenetic factors such as DNA methylation are DNA alterations affecting gene expression that can convey environmental information through generations. Only a few studies have demonstrated epigenetic inheritance in humans. Our objective is to quantify genetic and common environmental determinants of familial resemblances in DNA methylation levels, using a family based sample. DNA methylation was measured in 48...
