To date, more than 40 genetic variants have been associated with obesity and fat distribution. However, since these variants do not fully explain the heritability of obesity, other forms of variation, such as epigenetics ...
Allergy, Asthma & Clinical Immunology and Clinical Epigenetics present 'Asthma genetics and epigenetics', a cross-journal thematic series. This series aims to highlight the epigenetic mechanisms and genetic factors which contribute to the pathogenesis and epidemiology of asthma. This collection of article...

Keywords: asthma; genetics; epigenetics; atopy; DNA methylation; GWAS 1.

Track 6: Epigenetics: The word “epigenetic” literally means “in addition to changes in genetic sequence.” The term has evolved to include any process that alters gene activity without changing the DNA sequence, and leads to modifications that can be transmitted to daughter cells (although expe...
which I would encourage you guys to listen to if you haven’t. That link will be in the show notes. as well. I’d like to briefly touch on the idea of genetics versus epigenetics, which I know is a somewhat controversial word. But make sure that we highlight the fact that just bec...

This chapter explores the genetic studies of asthma. There are two different approaches to finding genes involved in asthma: linkage studies and association studies. Linkage studies test the linkage of a genetic marker with a trait. Polymorphic genetic markers used in linkage studies usually are not...
Genetics and epigenetics Epigenetics is the study of the changes in DNA and DNA-binding proteins that, albeit altering the structure of chromatin, do not modify the nucleotide sequence of DNA. The remarkable feature here is that some of these modifications may be associated with heritable changes ...
