We used to think that a new embryo's epigenome was completely erased and rebuilt from scratch. But this isn't completely true. Some epigenetic tags remain in place as genetic information passes from generation to generation, a process called epigenetic inheritance.ypassing Reproductive Cells. Epigenetic marks can pass from parent to offspring in a way that completely bypasses egg or sperm, thus avoiding the epigenetic purging that happens during early development. Most of us were taught that our traits are hard-coded in the DNA that passes from parent to offspring.
Fast Facts: 1  Alterations to chemicals attached to DNA, known as epigenetic changes, affect how genes do their work and have been linked to colon cancer. 2  A new study of six different cancer types found distinctive epigenetic changes in all of them.These insights into the cancer epigenome could provide a foundation for development of early screening or preventive treatment for cancer,â Timp says, suggesting that the distinctive methylation âfingerprintâ could potentially be used to tell early-stage cancers apart from other, harmless growths.
