In Utero Particulate Matter Exposure Produces Heart Failure, Electrical Remodeling, and Epigenetic Changes at Adulthood
5 Apr 2017
Abstract excerpt
Background Particulate matter (PM; PM 2.5 [PM with diameters of <2.5 μm]) exposure during development is strongly associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes at adulthood. In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that in utero PM 2.5 exposure alone could alter cardiac structure and function at adulthood. Methods and Results Female FVB mice were exposed either to filtered air or PM 2.5 at an average...
