RATIONALE Acute and chronic exposure to particulate air pollution has been associated with increased risk of cardiovascular and respiratory disease. Processes related to cardiorespiratory outcomes, such as oxidative stress, atherosclerosis, aging have been associated with lower global DNA methylation content in blood DNA. Whether DNA methylation is modified by air particle exposure has never been tested. METHODS We estimated global DNA methylation through analysis of LINE1 and Alu repeated elements in 1,006 blood DNA samples from the Normative Aging Study (NAS), a repeated measure investigation of elderly men in Boston. DNA methylation was measured analysis of bisulfite-treated blood DNA by PCR-Pyrosequencing. We used mixed models to estima...
