To know mechanisms of smoking influence on the course of these diseases might lead to discovery of novel methods of diagnostics and prevention. Recent studies showed the impact of smoking on epigenetic mechanisms of heredity, particularly on the status of DNA methylizing. Current review focuses on the analysis of smoking influence of DNA methylizing. There are >60 genes described, methylizing of which is related to smoking.
