Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Air pollution has many effects on the health of both adults and children, but children's vulnerability is unique. The aim of this review is to discuss the possible molecular mechanisms linking air pollution and asthma in children, also taking into account their genetic and epigenetic characteristics. RESULTS: Air pollutants appear able to induce airway inflammation and increase asthma morbidity in...
