Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease, that accounts for 50-75% of all dementia cases. Evidence demonstrates the link between particulate matter (PM) exposure and AD. However, there are still considerable research gaps.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFResearch on epigenetic‒environmental interactions in the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD) has accelerated rapidly in recent decades. Numerous studies have demonstrated the contribution of ambient particulate matter (PM) to the onset of AD. Emerging evidence indicates that non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), including long non-coding RNAs, circular RNAs, and microRNAs, play a role in the pathophysiology of AD.

To address this knowledge gap, a total of 355 preterm births and 481 controls were selected for a family-based birth cohort study in a coastal area of China, between 2016 and 2018. Seven PFAS, including perfluorobutanoic acid (PFBA), perfluorohexanoic acid (PFHxA), perfluorohexanesulfonic acid (PFHxS), perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS), perfluorononanoic acid (PFNA) and perfluorodecanoic acid (PFDA), were quantified in maternal, paternal and neonatal sera.

Unfortunately, rapid capacity decay associated with volume variation during cycling limits practical application. Herein, SnS /Co S hollow nanocubes anchored on S-doped graphene are synthesized for the first time via coprecipitation and hydrothermal methods.
