Cadmium-associated differential methylation throughout the placental genome: epigenome-wide association study of two US birth cohorts

2017-04-27

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Cadmium (Cd) is a ubiquitous toxicant that during pregnancy can impair fetal development. Cd sequesters in the placenta where it can impair placental function, impacting fetal development. We aimed to investigate Cd-associated variations in placental DNA methylation (DNAM), associations with gene expression, and identify novel pathways involved in Cd-associated reproductive toxicity. <h4>Metho...
