Low-Level Environmental Cadmium Exposure Is Associated with DNA Hypomethylation in Argentinean Women
Background: Cadmium, a common food pollutant, alters DNA methylation in vitro. Epigenetic effects might therefore partly explain cadmium’s toxicity, including its carcinogenicity; however, human data on epigenetic effects are lacking. Objective: We evaluated the effects of dietary cadmium exposure o...
