Lung function discordance in monozygotic twins and associated differences in blood DNA methylation

1 Dec 2017

Abstract excerpt

Lung function is an important predictor of morbidity and mortality, with accelerated lung function decline reported to have immense consequences for the world’s healthcare systems. The lung function decline across individual’s lifetime is a consequence of age-related changes in lung anatomical structure and combination of various environmental factors; however, the exact molecular mechanisms contributing to this...
