Identification of epigenetic memory candidates associated with gestational age at birth through analysis of methylome and transcriptional data
9 Feb 2021
Abstract excerpt
Preterm birth is known to be associated with chronic disease risk in adulthood whereby epigenetic memory may play a mechanistic role in disease susceptibility. Gestational age (GA) is the most important prognostic factor for preterm infants, and numerous DNA methylation alterations associated with GA have been revealed by epigenome-wide association studies. However, in human preterm infants, whether the...
