表观遗传变化是发育和年龄相关生物学的基础。有前途的流行病学研究暗示表观遗传学在疾病的风险和进展,并建议表观遗传状态取决于环境风险以及遗传易感性。表观遗传学可能代表环境暴露或遗传学与许多常见疾病之间的机械联系,或者可能只是为目前缺乏此类措施的流行病学领域提供暴露或疾病的定量生物标志物。这一伟大的承诺是平衡的问题,有关的研究设计,测量工具,统计方法和生物学的解释,必须给予仔细考虑,在流行病学的设置。本文介绍了表观遗传流行病学的前景和挑战,并提出了方向,以推进这一新兴领域的分子流行病学。
Epigenetic changes underlie developmental and age related biology. Promising epidemiologic research implicates epigenetics in disease risk and progression, and suggests epigenetic status depends on environmental risks as well as genetic predisposition. Epigenetics may represent a mechanistic link between environmental exposures, or genetics, and many common diseases, or may simply provide a quantitative biomarker for exposure or disease for areas of epidemiology currently lacking such measures. This great promise is balanced by issues related to study design, measurement tools, statistical methods, and biological interpretation that must be given careful consideration in an epidemiologic setting. This article describes the promises and challenges for epigenetic epidemiology, and suggests directions to advance this emerging area of molecular epidemiology.
