Introduction Air pollution exposure has been linked to impaired cognitive aging, but little is
known about biomarkers modifying this association. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) control gene …

Background Black carbon (BC) is a marker of traffic pollution that has been associated with
blood pressure (BP), but findings have been inconsistent. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are …

Background Traffic-related particles induce oxidative stress and may exert adverse effects
on central nervous system function, which could manifest as cognitive impairment. Objective …

Background Traffic-related air pollution has been linked with impaired cognition in older
adults, possibly due to effects of oxidative stress on the brain. Mitochondria are the main …

Background The molecular effects of intermediate and long-term exposure to air pollution
and temperature, such as those on extracellular microRNA (ex-miRNA) are not well …

Background While the health effects of air pollution and temperature are widely studied, the
molecular effects are poorly understood. Extracellular microRNAs (ex-miRNAs) have the …

Aim: We tested whether genetic variation in miRNA processing genes modified the
association of PM2. 5 with DNA methylation (DNAm) age. Patients & methods: We …

Background Particulate air pollution has been associated with cardiovascular morbidity and
mortality, but it remains unclear which time windows and pollutant sources are most critical …

Background: Ambient particulate matter (PM) has been associated with mortality and
morbidity for cardiovascular disease. MicroRNAs control gene expression at a …

Background: Long-term air pollution exposure has been associated with age-related
cognitive impairment, possibly because of enhanced inflammation. Leukocytes with longer …
