DNA methylation at the suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 ( <i>SOCS3</i> ) gene influences height in childhood

2022-12-01

Abstract excerpt

Human height is strongly influenced by genetics but the contribution of modifiable epigenetic factors is under-explored, particularly in low and middle-income countries (LMIC). We investigated links between blood DNA methylation and child height in four LMIC cohorts (n=1927) and identified a robust association at three CpGs in the suppressor of cytokine signalling 3 ( SOCS3 ) gene which replicated in a high-incom...
