Perinatal Bisphenol A Exposure and Reprogramming of Imprinted Gene Expression in the Adult Mouse Brain
Genomic imprinting, a phenomenon by which genes are expressed in a monoallelic, parent-of-origin-dependent fashion, is critical for normal brain development. Expression of imprinted genes is regulated via epigenetic mechanisms, including DNA methylation (5-methylcytosine, 5mC), and disruptions in im...
