Additionally, Zhang et al. (2019) highlighted a significant reduction in 5hmC and Tet proteins, global alterations in 5hmC distribution and the identification of DhMRs associated with Cerebral Palsy (CP)-related genes, such as Notch1, Slc16a2, Dmd and Grin2b, indicating disrupted epigenetic regulation and potential impacts on gene expression critical to CP pathogenesis. This evidence concerns the gene DMD and cerebral palsy.
