Effects of Short-Term Exposure to Inhalable Particulate Matter on Telomere Length, Telomerase Expression, and Telomerase Methylation in Steel Workers

BACKGROUND: Shortened leukocyte telomere length (LTL) is a marker of cardiovascular risk that has been recently associated with long-term exposure to ambient particulate matter (PM). However, LTL is increased during acute inflammation and allows for rapid proliferation of inflammatory cells. Whether...
