Because both DNA methylation and hydroxymethylation are regulated by redox reactions [222, 228], it is possible that the elevated burden of oxidative stress imposed by smoking would uniformly impair the one-carbon transfer and the citric acid metabolic pathways that are involved in the formation of 5-mC and 5-hmC, respectively [227]
