    Glossary Epigenetic Factors

    external influences that modify gene expression without altering DNA

    Epigenetic factors are external or environmental influences that can modify the way genes are expressed without changing the underlying DNA sequence. These factors can include diet, stress, and exposure to toxins, and they can affect how cells read genes, potentially leading to changes in physical traits or susceptibility to diseases like alopecia.
