Western diet unmasks transient low-level vinyl chloride exposure-induced tumorigenesis; potential role of the (epi-)transcriptome
2022-02-25
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background & Aims</h4> Vinyl chloride (VC) monomer is a volatile organic compound commonly used in industry to produce polyvinyl chloride (PVC). At high exposure levels, VC causes liver cancer and toxicant-associated steatohepatitis. However, lower exposure levels (i.e., < regulatory exposure limits) that do not directly damage the liver, enhance injury caused by Western diet (WD). Although these lower exposu...
