Changes in DNA Methylation in Mouse Lungs after a Single Intra-Tracheal Administration of Nanomaterials.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of nanomaterial (NM) exposure on DNA methylation.Intra-tracheal administration of NM: gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) of 5-, 60- and 250-nm diameter; single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) at high dose of 2.5 mg/kg an...
