The life expectancy of the global population has increased. Aging is a natural physiological
process that poses major challenges in an increasingly long-lived and frail population …

Exposure to airborne particulate matter (PM) has been associated with detrimental health
effects. DNA methylation represents the most well-studied epigenetic factor among the …

As global awareness of air pollution rises, so does the imperative to provide evidence-based
recommendations for strategies to mitigate its impact. While public policy has a central role …

Over the past decades, DNA methylation has been proposed as a molecular mechanism
underlying the positive or negative effects of diet on human health. Despite the number of …

Background: DNA methylation patterns associated with habitual diet have not been well
studied. Methods: Diet quality was characterized using a Mediterranean-style diet score and …

Several lines of evidence suggested that antioxidants might play a protective role against
high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) infection and cervical cancer. However, the effect of …

The present study investigated the association of maternal dietary patterns with pre-
pregnancy body mass index (BMI) and total gestational weight gain (GWG), using data of …

This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to investigate the association between air
pollution and DNA methylation in adults from published observational studies. PubMed …

Several studies—albeit with still inconclusive and limited findings—began to focus on the
effect of drinking alcohol on telomere length (TL). Here, we present results from a systematic …

Since their identification as genomic regulatory elements, Transposable Elements (TEs)
were considered, at first, molecular parasites and later as an important source of genetic …
