Epigenetic Matters: The Link between Early Nutrition, Microbiome, and Long-term Health Development
22 Aug 2017
Abstract excerpt
Epigenetic modifications are among the most important mechanisms by which environmental factors can influence early cellular differentiation and create new phenotypic traits during pregnancy and within the neonatal period without altering the deoxyribonucleic acid sequence. A number of antenatal and postnatal factors, such as maternal and neonatal nutrition, pollutant exposure, and the composition of microbiota,...
