This volume includes 30 chapters that explore epigenetics from a variety of perspectives, including the role of epigenetics in aging, cancers, fetal brain development, epilepsy, and more. Chapter 1 - Epigenetics is termed as non-sequence deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) alterations in the gene expression profile that is heritable. With these, cellular identity is preserved, and gene function is transferred from one cell to another. Epigenetic changes occur with the effect of DNA methylation, chromatin structure changes, and non-coding ribonucleic acids, histone modifications.
