This program is designed to encapsulate and facilitate research projects focusing on the intricate dynamics between genetic predispositions and environmental factors in the progression of chronic diseases, excluding cancer. This initiative aims to unravel the molecular mechanisms and pathways that underlie these diseases, thereby paving the way for targeted interventions and therapies.

Long-term environmental exposure to metals leads to epigenetic changes and may increase risks to human health. The human epidemiologic and the toxicologic animal model studies provide strong evidence of metal exposure related DNA methylation changes, and, consequently alterations in gene expression, in metabolic, genetic and signal transduction pathways and their functions. The current study is designed to investigate genome wide DNA methylation and transcriptomic changes induced by human chronic ...
