The effect of polychlorinated biphenyls on type 2 diabetes risk is mediated via DNA methylation Open
Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) have been identified as diabetogens and potential epigenetic regulators. Epigenetic variation is implicated in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and is therefore a potential mechanism linking PCB ex…
