About: Epigenetics of physical exercise

An Entity of Type: book, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Epigenetics of physical exercise is the study of epigenetic modifications to the cell genome resulting from physical exercise. Environmental factors, including physical exercise, have been shown to have a beneficial influence on epigenetic modifications. Generally, it has been shown that acute and long-term exercise has a significant effect on DNA methylation, an important aspect of epigenetic modifications.

dbo:abstract
  • Epigenetics of physical exercise is the study of epigenetic modifications to the cell genome resulting from physical exercise. Environmental factors, including physical exercise, have been shown to have a beneficial influence on epigenetic modifications. Generally, it has been shown that acute and long-term exercise has a significant effect on DNA methylation, an important aspect of epigenetic modifications. The broader field of epigenetics studies heritable alterations to genes that do not involve changing the DNA sequence itself. The next section briefly discusses two important mechanisms involved in epigenetic modifications. (en)
