Environmental Factor Index (EFI): A Novel Approach to Measure the Strength of Environmental Influence on DNA Methylation in Identical Twins
The EFI is a valuable tool for understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying disease pathogenesis. It provides insights into the development of preventive and therapeutic strategies and offers a new perspective on the role of environmental factors in epigenetic regulation.
