- bonsai_spool 8mo agoThe actual title, which is what should be used on submissions, is "Stability of epigenetic transgenerational inheritance of adult-onset disease and parturition abnormalities". If you want to link to the press release, you should link to that—note it also doesn't use your editorialized title. The article isn't about the fungicide (were the exposures close to what humans experience?) but about the possibility of epigenetic transmission. Edit: "When pregnancy was confirmed, on days 8 through 14 of gestation [31] the females were administered daily intraperitoneal injections of vinclozolin (100 mg/kg BW/day, Chem Services, Westchester PA, USA)" - not comparable to humans. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6114855/ https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6114855/
