Maternal smoking during pregnancy is associated with adverse offspring health outcomes across their life course. We hypothesize that DNA methylation is a potential mediator of this relationship. To test this, we examined the association of prenatal maternal smoking with DNA methylation in 2,821 individuals (age 16 to 48 years) from five prospective birth cohort studies and perform Mendelian randomization and media...
