Fetal growth is associated with CpG methylation in the P2 promoter of the IGF1 gene

Abstract Background There are many reasons to think that epigenetics is a key determinant of fetal growth variability across the normal population. Since IGF1 and INS genes are major determinants of intrauterine growth, we examined the methylation of selected CpGs located in the regulatory region of...
