Paternal body mass index and offspring DNA methylation: findings from the PACE consortium

2020-03-13

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Accumulating evidence links paternal adiposity in the peri-conceptional period to offspring health outcomes. DNA methylation has been proposed as a mediating mechanism, but very few studies have explored this possibility in humans. <h4>Methods and findings</h4> In the Pregnancy And Childhood Epigenetics (PACE) consortium, we conducted a meta-analysis of co-ordinated epigenome-wide association s...
