More Details: | Abstract Background Experimental studies suggest that exposures may impact respiratory health across generations via epigenetic changes transmitted specifically through male germ cells. Studies in humans are, however, limited. We aim to identify epigenetic marks in offspring associated with father’s preconception smoking. Methods We conducted epigenome-wide association studies (EWAS) in the RHINESSA cohort (7–50 years) on father’s any preconception smoking (n = 875 offspring) and father’s pubertal onset smoking |
