  • Dietary benzo(a)pyrene and fetal growth: effect modification by vitamin C intake and glutathione S-transferase P1 polymorphism
    Duarte Salles, Talita, 1985-; Mendez, Michelle A.; Morales, Eva; Bustamante Pineda, Mariona; Rodríguez-Vicente, Agueda; Kogevinas, Manolis; Sunyer Deu, Jordi (Elsevier, 2012)
    Background: Previous studies have reported maternal exposure to airborne polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), as well as DNA adducts reflecting total PAH exposure, to be associated with reduced fetal growth. The role ...
  • Gene expression of desaturase (FADS1 and FADS2) and elongase (ELOVL5) enzymes in peripheral blood: association with polyunsaturated fatty acid levels and atopic eczema in 4-year-old children
    Chisaguano, Aida M.; Montes, Rosa; Pérez Berezo, Teresa; Castellote, Ana Isabel; Guerendiain, Marcela; Bustamante Pineda, Mariona; Morales, Eva; García Esteban, Raquel; Sunyer Deu, Jordi; Franch, Àngels; López Sabater, M. Carmen (Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2013)
    Background: It is unknown if changes in the gene expression of the desaturase and elongase enzymes are associated with abnormal n-6 long chain polyunsaturated fatty acid (LC-PUFA) levels in children with atopic eczema (AE). ...
  • Genetic variants of the FADS gene cluster and ELOVL gene family, colostrums LC-PUFA levels, breastfeeding, and child cognition
    Morales, Eva; Bustamante Pineda, Mariona; González Ruiz, Juan Ramón; Guxens Junyent, Mònica; Torrent Quetglas, Maties; Mendez, Michelle A.; García Esteban, Raquel; Júlvez Calvo, Jordi; Forns i Guzman, Joan, 1981-; Vrijheid, Martine; Molto Puigmarti, Carolina; López Sabater, M. Carmen; Estivill, Xavier, 1955-; Sunyer Deu, Jordi (Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2011)
    Introduction: Breastfeeding effects on cognition are attributed to long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFAs), but controversy persists. Genetic variation in fatty acid desaturase (FADS) and elongase (ELOVL) enzymes ...
  • Genome-wide DNA methylation study in human placenta identifies novel loci associated with maternal smoking during pregnancy
    Morales, Eva; Vilahur Chiaraviglio, Nadia, 1982-; Salas Díaz, Lucas Andrés, 1980-; Motta, Valeria; Fernandez, Mariana F.; Murcia, Mario; Llop, Sabrina; Tardón, Adonina; Fernandez-Tardon, Guillermo; Santa Marina, Loreto; Gallastegui, Mara; Bollati, Valentina; Estivill, Xavier, 1955-; Olea, Nicolás; Sunyer Deu, Jordi; Bustamante Pineda, Mariona (Oxford University Press, 2016)
    BACKGROUND: We conducted an epigenome-wide association study (EWAS) of DNA methylation in placenta in relation to maternal tobacco smoking during pregnancy and examined whether smoking-induced changes lead to low birthweight. ...
  • Prenatal exposure to mixtures of xenoestrogens and genome-wide DNA methylation in human placenta
    Vilahur Chiaraviglio, Nadia, 1982-; Bustamante Pineda, Mariona; Morales, Eva; Motta, Valeria; Fernandez, Mariana F.; Salas, Lucas A.; Escaramís, Geòrgia; Ballester Díez, Ferran; Murcia, Mario; Tardón, Adonina; Riaño, Isolina; Santa Marina, Loreto; Ibarluzea, Jesús; Arrebola, Juan Pedro; Estivill, Xavier, 1955-; Bollati, Valentina; Sunyer Deu, Jordi; Olea, Nicolás (Future Medicine, 2016)
    BACKGROUND: In utero exposure to xenostrogens may modify the epigenome. We explored the association of prenatal exposure to mixtures of xenoestrogens and genome-wide placental DNA methylation. MATERIALS & METHODS: Sex-specific ...
