• Rapid DNA methylation changes after exposure to traffic particles. (2009, background): “However, whether this LINE-1 methylation decline is associated with increased risk of agerelated diseases—including the increased risk of cardiovascular disease associated with air pollution exposure (7, 8)—remains to be determined.”
• Long-term air pollution exposure and acceleration of atherosclerosis and vascular inflammation in an animal model. (2005, background): “5 is essentially linear across a large range of concentrations without a discernible lower safe threshold concentration.(6)”
• Ambient Air Pollution and Atherosclerosis in Los Angeles (2004, background): “As recently reviewed in a statement of the American Heart Association (Brook et al. 2004) substantial epidemiologic and experimental evidence suggests a contribution of ambient air pollutants on cardiovascular mortality and morbidity.”
