    Early moderate prenatal alcohol exposure and maternal diet impact offspring DNA methylation across species

    Mitchell Bestry, Alexander N Larcombe ... David Martino
    Early moderate consumption of alcohol in pregnancy was sufficient to disrupt the fetal epigenome in newborn mice, and high folate maternal diets had a mitigating effect.
