Negative Bisphenol A Effects on the Epigenome Blocked by Nutritional Supplements It may also be possible to prevent epigenetic changes that predispose individuals to diseases. For example, we showed that maternal supplementation of yellow agouti mice with compounds like folic acid or genistein during pregnancy blocked the negative effects (DNA hypomethylation) of bisphenol A on the epigenome of the offspring (Dolinoy DC et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 2007;104[32]:13056-13061).
You Are What Your Mother Ate! Our studies using the yellow agouti strain of mice have shown that the mother’s nutrition during pregnancy can permanently change the epigenetic programming of her offspring (Waterland RA and Jirtle RL. Mol Cell Biol. 2003;23[15]:5293-5300).
