Abstract:
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is a kind of common sleep and respiratory disorder with unknown cause. Epigenetics is a branch of genetics that studies the genetic variation of gene expression under the condition of unchanged nucleotide sequence, including DNA methylation, histone modification, chromatin remodeling,and non coding RNA regulation.
