Biomarkers of Lead Exposure and DNA Methylation within Retrotransposons
BACKGROUND: DNA methylation is an epigenetic mark that regulates gene expression. Changes in DNA methylation within white blood cells may result from cumulative exposure to environmental metals such as lead. Bone lead, a marker of cumulative exposure, may therefore better predict DNA methylation tha...
