ABSTRACT
DNA methylation is an epigenetic modification of genome that is involved in many human diseases. Recent studies revealed DNA methylation may be associated with fluorosis. This study was aimed to evaluate the dose-response effect of fluoride on DNA methylation in human and rat blood. A commercial ELISA kit was employed to evaluate 5-methylcytosine (5-mC) level of genome in human and rat blood. A total of 281 subjects were enrolled in this study and divided into four equal-size groups by the quartile of fluoride in drinking water. The difference of 5-mC among the four groups was significant. The U-shaped relationship was found between fluoride and 5-mC in the population. The U-shaped curve was also observed in the rats with three months of fluoride treatments. Taken together, these results clue the disruption of DNA methylation in mammals may has a certain association with fluoride in natural exposures.
