Grant Activity:
Understanding why in-utero exposure to inhaled oxidants predispose people to develop asthma and COPD.
Purpose:

During pregnancy exposure to pollution or cigarette smoke is associated with the development of respiratory diseases such as asthma and COPD. Why this occurs is not fully known. We have developed models of exposure during pregnancy and found that the offspring have changes to their DNA, known as epigenetic changes, and chronic lung inflammation. We have also found that the offspring develop worse asthma. We now want to use these models to understand exactly which changes occur.
