Early-life Exposure to Arsenic Primes the Offspring to Increased Asthma Risk: Transcriptome and Epigenome Analysis

Yuchen Sun, Musa Watfa, Qinying Sun, Dhivyaa Rajasundaram, Ben Schlegel, Hoi-yee. Yeung, Jarius Pulczinski, Bong Soo Park, Aaron Barchowsky, Wayne Mitzner, Shyam S. Biswal, Wan‐Yee Tang
