Role of Epigenetics in the Pathogenesis, Treatment, Prediction, and Cellular Transformation of Asthma

Figure 1

A schematic view showing the association between epigenetic mechanism and genetic and environmental factors in asthma. Genetics and environment are regulated by epigenetic factors. However, it is known that this interaction is more complex, and environmental factors, as well as genetic factors, can also regulate epigenetics. Several other components of the immune, neuronal, and hormonal response are also involved in the outcome. Th cells: T helper cells.
