Data suggest that dietary fatty acids create epigenetic/nutrigenomic changes in methylation levels of CpG island at Vegfb promoter and changes in Vegfb expression in white adipocytes in vivo and in vitro, with particular up-regulation of DNA methylation by linoleic acid; Vegfb promoter methylation levels are closely related to Vegfb gene expression in visceral and subcutaneous adipose tissue. | Methylation patterns of Vegfb promoter are associated with gene and protein expression levels: the effects of dietary fatty acids.
