Epigenetic factors may account for some of the non-explained variance in genetics studies and possibly mediate interactions between genotype and known environmental risk factors in influencing the onset of complex diseases.
“This suggests that epigenetic factors may account for some of the non-explained variance in genetics studies and possibly mediate the interactions between genotype and known environmental risk factors in influencing the onset of complex diseases (Relton & Smith, 2010).”
From Can epigenetics shine a light on the biological pathways underlying major mental disorders? (2022) · cites this paper as Relton & Smith, 2010
The Summary Points say epigenetic variation contributes to variation in common complex disease risk, and the “Genetical Epigenomics” section describes epigenetic variation as a potential mediator of environmental exposures’ effects on disease. The paper does not specifically say that epigenetic factors account for unexplained variance in genetic studies or mediate interactions between genotype and environmental risk factors. No page numbers are available in our copy. (LLM, conf=0.84)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredStudying the epigenome in well-characterized samples may enable discovery of novel genes and pathways through which genetic factors and environmental exposures influence disease initiation and development, providing new targets for prevention and treatment.
“Studying the epigenome in the well-characterized samples may enable us to discover novel genes and pathways through which genetic factors and environmental exposures influence disease initiation and development, and thereby provide new targets for prevention and treatment”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
