Sex‐specific associations of asthma acquisition with changes in DNA methylation during adolescence
5 Nov 2020
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Underlying biological mechanisms involved in sex differences in asthma status changes from pre- to post-adolescence are unclear. DNA methylation (DNAm) has been shown to be associated with the risk of asthma. OBJECTIVE: We hypothesized that asthma acquisition from pre- to post-adolescence was associated with changes in DNAm during this period at asthma-associated cytosine-phosphate-guanine (CpG) sites...
