EPIGENOMICS AND HUMAN OBESITY
EPIGENETICS IN HUMAN DISEASE, 2ND EDITION, Vol. 6, pp. 409–426.
TL;DR:
This chapter summarizes human data on CpG methylation, the most studied epigenetic mechanism in humans, in the context of causal inference, in adults and children, and concludes with a call for sex- and ethnic-specific data, together with data demonstrating that obesity-associated DNA methylation marks identified precede obesity.
