| Zusammenfassung≠ | A multi-omics epigenome-wide association study (multi-omics EWAS) systematically scans the entire epigenome — typically DNA methylation at CpG sites — for associations with a phenotype of interest, then integrates findings across additional omics layers such as transcriptomics, genomics, proteomics, or metabolomics. By linking epigenetic variation to molecular changes at multiple biological levels simultaneously, this approach identifies regulatory mechanisms and biomarkers that single-omics EWAS cannot resolve. | An epigenome-wide association study (EWAS) is a hypothesis-free, genome-scale method that systematically tests whether epigenetic marks — predominantly CpG-site DNA methylation — differ between individuals with and without a trait, disease, or exposure. By scanning hundreds of thousands of genomic positions simultaneously, EWAS identifies loci where the epigenome is reproducibly associated with a phenotype, offering a layer of biological regulation that classical GWAS does not capture. |
