Human blood DNA methylation patterns reflect individual lifestyle

2021-12-17

Abstract excerpt

Obesity is driven by modifiable lifestyle factors whose effects may be mediated by epigenetics. Therefore, we investigated lifestyle effects (diet, physical activity, smoking and alcohol) on blood DNA methylation in participants of the LIFE-Adult study, a well-characterized population-based cohort from Germany. Fifty subjects with an extremely healthy and 50 with an extremely unhealthy lifestyle were selected for...
