### 10.1. Introduction Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are polygenic in nature. Many genes involved in lipid metabolism, vascular homeostasis, hemostasis, oxidative stress, and inflammation have been found to be related to cardiovascular diseases. Vascular homeostasis is regulated by a delicate balan
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
