Occupational endotoxin exposure, DNA methylation changes, and immune-cell remodeling: an epigenome-wide association study in two cohorts

Background: Millions of textile and agricultural workers inhale organic dust containing endotoxin, an exposure associated with impaired respiratory function. However, the underlying biological pathways remain unclear. We conducted a two-cohort epigenome-wide association study (EWAS) to identify airborne endotoxin-assoc...
