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 Particulate matter (PM) air pollution has been associated with cardiovascular
morbidity and mortality, and elevated blood pressure (BP) is a known risk factor for …

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

Aims Exposure to particulate air pollution is associated with increased blood pressure (BP),
a well-established risk factor for cardiovascular disease. To elucidate the mechanisms …

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 Exposure to ambient air pollution is associated with increased cardiovascular
morbidity and mortality. Circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) may mediate cardiovascular …

Background—Exposure to black carbon (BC), a tracer of vehicular-traffic pollution, is
associated with increased blood pressure (BP). Identifying biological factors that attenuate …

Background Black carbon (BC) is a pro-oxidant, traffic-related pollutant linked with lung
function decline. We evaluated the influence of genetic variation in the oxidative stress …

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

Background: Traffic-related particles (TRPs) are associated with adverse cardiovascular
events. The exact mechanisms are unclear, but systemic inflammatory responses likely play …
