DNA methylation profile of genes involved in inflammation and autoimmunity correlates with vascular function in morbidly obese adults

DNA methylation profile of genes involved in inflammation and autoimmunity correlates with vascular function in morbidly obese adults

Obesity is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Blood-detected epigenetic profiles may serve as non-invasive clinically relevant biomarkers. Therefore, we investigated DNA methylation of genes involved in inflammation in peripheral blood of obese subjects and lean controls and their corre...
