Effects of phthalate exposure on asthma may be mediated through alterations in DNA methylation
Background: phthalates may increase the asthma risk in children. Mechanisms underlying this association remain to be addressed. This study assesses the effect of phthalate exposures on epigenetic changes and the role of epigenetic changes for asthma. In the first step, urine and blood samples from 2...
