DNA methylation is a key epigenetic regulator of mammalian embryogenesis and somatic cell differentiation. Using high-resolution genome-scale maps of methylation patterns, we show that the formation o
Background: Several studies have shown effects of current and maternal smoking during pregnancy on DNA methylation of CpG sites in newborns and later in life. Here, we hypothesized that there are long
Tobacco smoking alters DNA methylation profiles of immune cells which may underpin some of the pathogenesis of smoking-associated diseases. However, approaches linking smoking-driven epigenetic effect
