Transcriptome-wide analyses indicate mitochondrial responses to particulate air pollution exposure

Abstract Background Due to their lack of repair capacity mitochondria are critical targets for environmental toxicants. We studied genes and pathways reflecting mitochondrial responses to short- and medium-term PM10 exposure. Methods Whole genome gene expression was measured in peripheral blood of 9...
