Occupational exposure to gases/fumes and mineral dust affect DNA methylation levels of genes regulating expression [PDF]

, 2019
Many workers are daily exposed to occupational agents like gases/fumes, mineral dust or biological dust, which could induce adverse health effects. Epigenetic mechanisms, such as DNA methylation, have been suggested to play a role.
