Prenatal chemical exposures and the methylome: current evidence and opportunities for environmental epigenetics
14 Nov 2024
Abstract excerpt
Exposure to pollutants and chemicals during critical developmental periods in early life can impact health and disease risk across the life course. Research in environmental epigenetics has provided increasing evidence that prenatal exposures affect epigenetic markers, particularly DNA methylation. In this article, we discuss the role of DNA methylation in early life programming and review evidence linking the...
