1. Epigenetics: How our Lifestyle can impact our Genes
Individual genetic background and environmental factors are intertwined to lifestyle in determining the health status of individuals. Increasing evidence shows that environmental and lifestyle factors may influence epigenetic mechanisms, such as DNA methylation, histone modifications and microRNA expression. The concept lifestyle includes different factors such as nutrition, physical activity, behavior, stress, working habits, smoking and alcohol consumption, etc. Today, several of these lifestyle factors have been identified that might modify epigenetic patterns. Most studies conducted so far have been centered on DNA methylation, whereas only a few investigations have studied lifestyle factors in relation to histone modifications and microRNAs. Although we can't change our DNA, we do have the ability to control our lifestyle, leading to epigenetic changes that can influence our health both positively and negatively.
