Paternal grandparental exposure to crop failure or surfeit during a childhood slow growth period: Epigenetic marks on grandchildren’s growth, glucoregulatory and stress genes

2017-11-07

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> This latest in our series of papers describes transgenerational methylation related to midchildhood food availability in 19 th century Överkalix, Sweden. Failed vs. bountiful crops differentially influenced methylation in grandchildren of paternal grandparents exposed to feast or famine during their Slow Growth Period (SGP), a sensitive period preceding the pre-pubertal growth spurt. In this ca...
