Preterm birth (PTB) is a major public health challenge, and novel, sensitive approaches to
predict PTB are still evolving. Epigenomic markers are being explored as biomarkers of PTB …

Epigenetic modifications, including DNA methylation, are proposed mechanisms explaining
the impact of parental exposures to foetal development and lifelong health. Micronutrients …

N6-methyladenosine (m6A) was the most abundant modification of mRNA and lncRNA in
mammalian cells and played an important role in many biological processes. However …

Background DNA methylation is an epigenetic process for modifying transcription factors in

Introduction Despite intensive research, preterm birth (PTB) rates have not decreased
significantly in recent years due to a lack of understanding of the underlying causes and …

Preeclampsia (PE) presents a major obstetrical problem for mother and fetus which is
characterized by the onset of hypertension and proteinuria in formerly normotensive women …

Proper DNA methylation in spermatozoa is essential for the normal development of fertilized
embryos through gene expression regulation. Abnormal sperm DNA methylation is …

Aim The aim is to provide an overview of recent research on genetic factors that influence
