Low birth weight associates with hippocampal gene expression

Low birth weight associates with hippocampal gene expression

Highlights • We compared hippocampal gene expression and DNA methylation between low and normal birth weight neonates. • Birth weight associated with genome-wide transcription in the hippocampus. • Differentially expressed genes were involved in neuronal projection. • Few genes with differential exp...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • We compared hippocampal gene expression and DNA methylation between low and normal birth weight neonates. • Birth weight associated with genome-wide transcription in the hippocampus. • Differentially expressed genes were involved in neuronal projection. • Few genes with differential expression co-varied with DNA methylation levels. • Birth weight associates with hippocampal gene expression with a small epigenetic underpinning.
