Air pollution and cardiovascular disease: Mitochondria may be the missing link
Researchers at UCLA Health investigating the connection between air pollution and cardiovascular disease have identified new blood biomarkers—long-chain dicarboxylate acids (DCAs) and medium- to long-chain acyl-carnitines (ACs)—in samples from mice and humans exposed to air pollution. These biomarkers offer insight into how air pollution damages cell function and increases the risk of heart…
