The study of epigenetics, or how heritable changes in gene expression are regulated without modifying the coding DNA sequence, has become an increasingly important field of study in recent years. Rapid developments in our understanding of the way in which gene function is modulated by the environmen
Diet and environment during early life can set the foundation upon which organ function in adult life is based (Gordon, 1997). Various nutrient deficiencies (docosahexaenoic acid, iron, protein/amino acids, caloric restriction, folate, etc.), occurring during pregnancy or in early postnatal life, ar
