Metabolomic biomarkers of habitual B vitamin intakes unveil novel differentially methylated positions in the human epigenome
Abstract Background B vitamins such as folate (B9), B6, and B12 are key in one carbon metabolism, which generates methyl donors for DNA methylation. Several studies have linked differential methylation to self-reported intakes of folate and B12, but these estimates can be imprecise, while metabolomi...
