Plasma per- and polyfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS) concentrations in mid-childhood and associations with DNA methylation and epigenetic aging through early adolescence.
BACKGROUND Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are widespread synthetic chemicals. PFAS exposure in early life has previously been associated with DNA methylation (DNAm) variation. However, limited studies have examined associations of childhood PFAS exposure with DNAm in childhood or adolescence. OBJECTIVE We...
