Epigenetic silencing of ferroptosis-regulating genes (PCBP1, GPX4, FTL) in cord blood: identification of novel biomarkers of fetal growth restriction induced by maternal smoking

2026-03-12

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Maternal smoking is a leading preventable cause of intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR). While the clinical association is well-established, the molecular mechanisms linking prenatal smoke exposure and reduced fetal growth remain unclear. Ferroptosis, an iron-dependent form of cell death, has been implicated in placental pathology. This study aimed to validate epigenetic alterations i...
