"Global DNA methylation was inversely correlated with serum PFOA (r = -0.72, p < 0.01) but not PFOS levels. Serum Y chromosome analyses did not detect maternal DNA cross-contamination. This study supports the use of global DNA methylation status as a biomarker of in utero exposure to cigarette smoke and PFCs."
CiteULike: Global DNA hypomethylation is associated with in utero exposure to cotinine and perfluorinated alkyl compounds.:
