"Prenatal exposure to cadmium and cotinine and CpG island DNA methylation in mother-infant pairs." <i>Genomics Data,</i> 5, (2015) Elsevier: 378-380. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.gdata.2015.07.001.https://hdl.handle.net/1911/88822A precise biological mechanism by which cadmium acts as a developmental toxicant is unknown but is suggested to include an epigenetic basis. In prior work, we analyzed CpG island methylation levels within gene promoters (nﾠ=ﾠ16,421) in leukocytes collected from mothers and their infants from a pregnancy cohort in Durham County, North Carolina. The CpG methylation levels were examined in relationship to prenatal exposure to cadmium and/or cotinine to identify genes and pathways influenced by in utero exposure. In the present article, we provide an enhanced description of the data collection and processing to facilitate cross-study comparisons. Data are available within the Gene Expression Omnibus database (GSE67976).engThis is an open access article under the CC BY-NC-ND licenseJournal articleCadmiumEpigeneticsprenatalexposureCpG methylationhttp://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.gdata.2015.07.001
