Understanding Root Causes of Asthma. Perinatal Environmental Exposures and Epigenetic Regulation.

Annals of the American Thoracic Society - 1 Apr 2018

Miller Rachel L, Lawrence Jennifer

Abstract excerpt

A common explanation for the origins and rising prevalence of asthma is that they involve complex interactions between hereditary predispositions and environmental exposures that are incompletely understood. Yet, emerging evidence substantiates the paradigm that environmental exposures prenatally and during very early childhood induce epigenetic alterations that affect the expression of asthma genes and, thereby,...
