  • Alfano, Rossella; Kogevinas, Manolis; Sunyer Deu, Jordi; Vrijheid, Martine; Plusquin, Michelle (Elsevier, 2020)
    Background: Birthweight reflects in utero exposures and later health evolution. Despite existing studies employing high-dimensional molecular measurements, the understanding of underlying mechanisms of birthweight remains ...
  • Sayols, Sergi; Fernández Sanlés, Alba, 1988-; Prats Uribe, Albert; Subirana Cachinero, Isaac; Plusquin, Michelle; Künzli, Nino; Marrugat de la Iglesia, Jaume; Basagaña Flores, Xavier; Elosua Llanos, Roberto (Elsevier, 2019)
    INTRODUCTION: Limited evidence suggests that epigenetic mechanisms may partially mediate the adverse effects of air pollution on health. Our aims were to identify new genomic loci showing differential DNA methylation ...
  • Hautekiet, Pauline; Nawrot, Tim S.; Janssen, Bram G.; Martens, Dries S.; De Clercq, Eva M.; Dadvand, Payam; Plusquin, Michelle; Bijnens, Esmée M.; Saenen, Nelly D. (Elsevier, 2021)
    Background: Pro-inflammatory conditions such as air pollution might induce biological ageing. However, the available evidence on such an impact in children is still very scarce. We studied in primary schoolchildren the ...
  • Alfano, Rossella; Zugna, Daniela; Barros, Henrique; Bustamante Pineda, Mariona; Chatzi, Leda; Ghantous, Akram; Herceg, Zdenko; Keski-Rahkonen, Pekka; Kok, Theo M. de; Nawrot, Tim S.; Relton, Caroline L.; Robinson, Oliver; Roumeliotaki, Theano; Scalbert, Augustin; Vrijheid, Martine; Vineis, Paolo; Richiardi, Lorenzo; Plusquin, Michelle (BioMed Central, 2023)
    Rapid postnatal growth may result from exposure in utero or early life to adverse conditions and has been associated with diseases later in life and, in particular, with childhood obesity. DNA methylation, interfacing ...
  • Handakas, Evangelos; Keski-Rahkonen, Pekka; Chatzi, Leda; Alfano, Rossella; Roumeliotaki, Theano; Plusquin, Michelle; Maitre, Léa; Richiardi, Lorenzo; Brescianini, Sonia; Scalbert, Augustin; Robinot, Nivonirina; Nawrot, Tim S.; Sassi, Franco; Vrijheid, Martine; Vineis, Paolo; Robinson, Oliver (Nature Research, 2021)
    Introduction: Metabolomics may identify biological pathways predisposing children to the risk of overweight and obesity. In this study, we have investigated the cord blood metabolic signatures of rapid growth in infancy ...
  • Alfano, Rossella; Plusquin, Michelle; Robinson, Oliver; Brescianini, Sonia; Chatzi, Leda; Keski-Rahkonen, Pekka; Handakas, Evangelos; Maitre, Léa; Nawrot, Tim S.; Robinot, Nivonirina; Roumeliotaki, Theano; Sassi, Franco; Scalbert, Augustin; Vrijheid, Martine; Vineis, Paolo; Richiardi, Lorenzo; Zugna, Daniela (Nature Research, 2022)
    Background: The mechanisms underlying childhood overweight and obesity are poorly known. Here, we investigated the direct and indirect effects of different prenatal exposures on offspring rapid postnatal growth and overweight ...
  • Plusquin, Michelle; Sayols, Sergi; Chadeau-Hyam, Marc (Elsevier, 2017)
    Long-term exposure to air pollution has been associated with several adverse health effects including cardiovascular, respiratory diseases and cancers. However, underlying molecular alterations remain to be further ...
  • Wang, Congrong; Alfano, Rossella; Reimann, Brigitte; Hogervorst, Janneke; Bustamante Pineda, Mariona; De Vivo, Immaculata; Plusquin, Michelle; Nawrot, Tim S.; Martens, Dries S. (Frontiers, 2022)
    Telomere length at birth determines later life telomere length and potentially predicts ageing-related diseases. However, the genetic and epigenetic settings of telomere length in newborns have not been analyzed. In addition, ...
  • Saenen, Nelly D.; Nawrot, Tim S.; Hautekiet, Pauline; Hautekiet, Pauline; Wang, Congrong; Roels, Harry A.; Dadvand, Payam; Plusquin, Michelle; Bijnens, Esmée M. (BioMed Central, 2023)
    Cognitive performances of schoolchildren have been adversely associated with both recent and chronic exposure to ambient air pollution at the residence. In addition, growing evidence indicates that exposure to green space ...
