DNA Methylation in Newborns and Maternal Smoking in Pregnancy: Genome-wide Consortium Meta-analysis

Bonnie R. Joubert, +112 more
TL;DR: This large scale meta-analysis of methylation data identified numerous loci involved in response to maternal smoking in pregnancy with persistence into later childhood and provide insights into mechanisms underlying effects of this important exposure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide association study for early-onset and morbid adult obesity identifies three new risk loci in European populations

TL;DR: In addition to FTO and MC4R, genome-wide association data from 1,380 Europeans with early-onset and morbid adult obesity and 1,416 age-matched normal-weight controls detected significant association of obesity with three new risk loci in NPC1, near MAF and near PTER.
Journal ArticleDOI

A variant near MTNR1B is associated with increased fasting plasma glucose levels and type 2 diabetes risk

TL;DR: The data suggest a possible link between circadian rhythm regulation and glucose homeostasis through the melatonin signaling pathway and show MT2 expression in human pancreatic islets and beta cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ambient air pollution and low birthweight: a European cohort study (ESCAPE)

Marie Pedersen, +56 more
TL;DR: Exposure to ambient air pollutants and traffic during pregnancy is associated with restricted fetal growth and a substantial proportion of cases of low birthweight at term could be prevented in Europe if urban air pollution was reduced.
