Chronic exposure to ambient particulate matter alters cardiac gene expression patterns and markers of oxidative stress in rats
Exposure to ambient particulate matter (PM) significantly increases cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in the general population. We hypothesized that some components of PM can affect the gene expression patterns in the hearts of rats exposed for 3 months to filtered air (FA), coarse (CP; 2.5 ...
