DNA methylation profiling in cord blood neonatal monocytes from women with pre-gestational obesity


ABSTRACT: Obesity represents a global burden with an increasing worldwide prevalence, especially in women of reproductive age. Obesity in women, defined as a body mass index (BMI) > 30 kg/m2, has a worldwide prevalence ~21%, however, it exceeds 30% in countries such as Chile, Mexico, United States, and the United Kingdom. Growing evidence support the notion that pre-gestational obesity confers an increased risk for the development of diabetes, obesity and chronic inflammatory diseases in the offspring later in life. In fact, maternal obesity during gestation is associated with an increased risk of asthma and wheezing during early or late infancy, in terms of medication and need for hospital admission. Here we report changes in DNA methylation at a genomic level in monocytes isolated by adherence from cord blood of neonates born to women with obesity and integrate these changes to reveal the epigenetic programming of immune signaling pathways resulting from maternal obesity.
