Epigenetic effects of male obesity on sperm and offspring

Abstract. While the influence of maternal environmental exposures on offspring long-term health is well recognized, paternal contributions are often overlooked. Recently, a growing body of evidence has revealed the relationship between paternal obesity and the phenotype of offspring. This review is...
