The current results suggest that protective parenting measured during late childhood and early adolescence may also exert an influence on genomic functioning and health in young adults, and contributes to promising work on multiple fronts suggesting that
various epigenetic mechanisms may be related to, and help account for, long - term effects of protective parenting on health.
Since then,
various reports suggested
epigenetic inheritance in different organisms but the molecular
mechanisms were unknown,» says Nicola Iovino, corresponding author in the new study.
