Permanent and plastic epigenesis in neuroendocrine systems

Permanent and plastic epigenesis in neuroendocrine systems

Highlights • Epigenetics explains how environment or early-life events have lasting outcomes on overall health. • Sexual differentiation of neuroendocrine systems is a useful neuroepigenetic model. • Neuroepigenetic alterations may be stable or plastic across a lifespan.
