DNA Methylation and 1-C Metabolism Nutrient Intake
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The present study used a sub-sample of the Melbourne Collaborative Cohort Study (MCCS) (Milne RL et al, Int J Epidemiol, 2017), who had valid data on dietary intakes (121-item food frequency questionnaire) and valid measures of DNA methylation using the HumanMethylation Infinium 450K Beadchip assay, or using LINE-1, Alu and Sat2 assays.
The investigators studied the association between nutrients involved in one-carbon metabolism and DNA methylation in peripheral blood.
