Human Mobility Disproportionately Extends PM2.5 Emission Exposure for Low Income Populations [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Ambient exposure to fine particulate matters of diameters smaller than 2.5{\mu}m (PM2.5) has been identified as one critical cause for respiratory disease. Disparities in exposure to PM2.5 among income groups at individual residences are known to exist and are easy to calculate.

Environmental exposures in utero and microRNA
Current Opinion in Pediatrics, 2014 Understanding the effects of in-utero exposures to environmental agents is of great importance as the resulting deregulation of biological processes can affect both fetal development and health outcomes that manifest later in life. Due to their established role in developmental processes and inherent stability ex vivo, microRNAs (miRNAs) have emerged ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.In vivo IL‐10 produced by tissue‐resident tolDC is involved in maintaining/inducing tolerance. Depending on the agent used for ex vivo tolDC generation, cells acquire common features but prime T cells towards anergy, FOXP3+ Tregs, or Tr1 cells according to the levels of IL‐10 produced. Ex vivo‐induced tolDC were administered to patients to re‐establish/

Kernel Machine and Distributed Lag Models for Assessing Windows of Susceptibility to Environmental Mixtures in Children's Health Studies [PDF]
Ann. Appl. Stat. 16(2): 1090-1110 (June 2022), 2019 Exposures to environmental chemicals during gestation can alter health status later in life. Most studies of maternal exposure to chemicals during pregnancy have focused on a single chemical exposure observed at high temporal resolution. Recent research has turned to focus on exposure to mixtures of multiple chemicals, generally observed at a single ...

Environmental Exposure to Benzene: An Update [PDF]
Environmental Health Perspectives, 1996 During the 1990s, several large-scale studies of benzene concentrations in air, food, and blood have added to our knowledge of its environmental occurrence. In general, the new studies have confirmed the earlier findings of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Total Exposure Assessment Methodology (TEAM) studies and other large-scale studies in ...
