• Phenotypic plasticity and the epigenetics of human disease (2007, methodology): “A surprising environmental modulator of the epigenome is assisted reproductive technology (ART), which has been shown to be the method of conception at higher than expected frequency in Beckwith–Wiedemann syndrome and Angelman syndrom”
• Persistent epigenetic differences associated with prenatal exposure to famine in humans (2008, background): “It will be of prime interest to investigate whether other exposures during early development that are more common in modern societies, including overnutrition (3) and assisted reproductive technologies (27), give rise to similar associations.”
• The history of cancer epigenetics (2004, result): “The mechanisms accounting for gain of methylation at H19 or loss of methylation at LIT1 are not known, but recent findings by DeBaun, Feinberg, Maher and other”
• Is folic acid good for everyone? (2008, background): “A similar loss of imprinting for IGF2, H19, and SYBL1 in blood cells has been found in patients with hyperhomocysteinemia due to renal failure (159).”
