Although a growing body of experimental evidence supports the relevance of epigenetic inheritance to mammalian physiology (including humans), the underlying molecular mechanisms are still unknown. The aim of this chapter is to provide a short overview of the best-characterized molecular mechanisms of epigenetic inheritance and then continue and focus on yet to be explored, perspective mechanisms. The chapter concludes with an overview of the potential relevance epigenetic inheritance poses to human health and well-being.
