Effects of Particulate Matter on Genomic DNA Methylation Content and iNOS Promoter Methylation
(National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, 2008)
Background: Altered patterns of gene expression mediate the effects of particulate matter (PM) on human health, but mechanisms through which PM modifies gene expression are largely undetermined.Objectives We aimed at ...
Exposure to Metal-rich Particulate Matter Modifies the Expression of Candidate Micrornas in Peripheral Blood Leukocytes
(National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, 2010)
Background: Altered patterns of gene expression mediate the effects of particulate matter (PM) on human health, but mechanisms through which PM modifies gene expression are largely undetermined. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are ...
Cardiac Autonomic Dysfunction: Particulate Air Pollution Effects Are Modulated by Epigenetic Immunoregulation of Toll‐like Receptor 2 and Dietary Flavonoid Intake
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2015)
Background: Short‐term fine particles (PM2.5) exposure is associated with reduced heart rate variability, a strong predictor of cardiac mortality among older people. Identifying modifiable factors that confer susceptibility ...
