Sperm Epigenetics

Sperm Epigenetics is the study of heritable modifications in gene expression and chromatin organization in sperm cells that occur without changes to the underlying DNA sequence, encompassing molecular mechanisms such as DNA methylation, histone modifications, and non-coding RNA profiles that influence embryonic development and transgenerational inheritance.
