Cohort profile: Epigenetics in Pregnancy (EPIPREG) – Population-based sample of European and South Asian pregnant women with epigenome-wide DNA methylation (850k) in peripheral blood leukocytes
Fragoso-Bargas, Nicolas; Opsahl, Julia Onsrud; Kiryushchenko, Nadezhda; Böttcher, Yvonne; Lee-Ødegård, Sindre; Qvigstad, Elisabeth; Richardsen, Kåre Rønn; Waage, Christin; Sletner, Line; Jenum, Anne Karen; Prasad, Rashmi B.; Groop, Leif C.; Moen, Gunn-Helen Øiseth; Birkeland, Kåre Inge; Sommer, Christine (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Pregnancy is a valuable model to study the association between DNA methylation and several cardiometabolic traits, due to its direct potential to influence mother’s and child’s health. Epigenetics in Pregnancy (EPIPREG) ... -
Comparison of the associations between non-traditional and traditional indices of adiposity and cardiovascular mortality: an observational study of one million person-years of follow-up
Ofstad, Anne Pernille; Sommer, Christine; Birkeland, Kåre I.; Bjørgaas, Marit Ragnhild Rokne; Gran, Jon Michael; Gulseth, Hanne Løvdal; Johansen, Odd Erik (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Background/objective The most widely used adiposity index, body mass index (BMI), is not optimal to evaluate cardiovascular (CV) risk associated with overweight and obesity. We aimed to explore the association between ... -
DNA methylation risk score for type 2 diabetes is associated with gestational diabetes
Linares-Pineda, Teresa M.; Fragoso Bargas, Nicolas; Picón, María José; Molina-Vega, Maria; Jenum, Anne Karen; Sletner, Line; Lee-Ødegård, Sindre; Opsahl, Julia Onsrud; Moen, Gunn-Helen; Qvigstad, Elisabeth; Prasad, Rashmi B.; Birkeland, Kåre Inge; Morcillo, Sonsoles; Sommer, Christine (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Background Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) share many pathophysiological factors including genetics, but whether epigenetic marks are shared is unknown. We aimed to test whether ... -
Epigenome-wide association study of serum folate in maternal peripheral blood leukocytes
Fragoso-Bargas, Nicolas; Page, Christian Magnus; Joubert, Bonnie R.; London, Stephanie J.; Lee-Ødegård, Sindre; Opsahl, Julia Onsrud; Sletner, Line; Jenum, Anne Karen; Qvigstad, Elisabeth; Prasad, Rashmi B.; Moen, Gunn-Helen Øiseth; Birkeland, Kåre Inge; Sommer, Christine (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Aim: To perform an epigenome-wide association study (EWAS) of serum folate in maternal blood. Methods: Cross-ancestry (Europeans = 302, South Asians = 161) and ancestry-specific EWAS in the EPIPREG cohort were performed, ... -

Objective This work aimed to test ... -
Investigating the causal effect of maternal vitamin B12 and folate levels on offspring birthweight
Moen, Gunn-Helen; Beaumont, Robin N.; Grarup, Niels; Sommer, Christine; Shields, Beverley M.; Lawlor, Debbie A.; Freathy, Rachel M.; Evans, David M.; Warrington, Nicole Maree (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Background Lower maternal serum vitamin B12 (B12) and folate levels have been associated with lower offspring birthweight, in observational studies. The aim of this study was to investigate whether this relationship is ... -
