Table 2 Epigenetic complexes represented by upregulated genes in arsenic-exposed male fetal placenta

From: Prenatal arsenic exposure alters the placental expression of multiple epigenetic regulators in a sex-dependent manner

  1. The EpiFactors database [18] was used to identify epigenetic regulatory complexes, the expression of whose components in male fetal placenta was positively associated with U-As. Complexes containing three U-As-associated genes are shown
