Accumulating evidence demonstrates that particulate air pollutants can cause both pulmonary and airway inflammation. However, few data show that particulates can induce systemic inflammatory responses. We conducted an exploratory study using microarray techniques to analyze wholeblood total RNA in boilermakers before and after occupational exposure to metal fumes. A self-controlled study design was used to overcome the problems of larger between-individual variation interferences with observations of relatively smaller changes caused by environmental exposure. Moreover, we ...
