Abstract excerpt
Aim: Late-gestational sleep fragmentation (LG-SF) and intermittent hypoxia (LG-IH), two hallmarks of obstructive sleep apnea, lead to metabolic dysfunction in the offspring. We investigated specific biological processes that are epigenetically regulated by LG-SF and LG-IH. Materials & methods: We analyzed DNA methylation profiles in offspring visceral white adipose tissues by MeDIP-chip followed by pathway...
