Identification of epigenetic memory candidates associated with gestational age at birth through analysis of methylome and transcriptional data

Abstract Preterm birth is known to be associated with chronic disease risk in adulthood whereby epigenetic memory may play a mechanistic role in disease susceptibility. Gestational age (GA) is the most important prognostic factor for preterm infants, and numerous DNA methylation alterations associat...
