Scientists find blood metabolic changes linked to air pollution and lung cancer risk
Researchers at Emory University and the American Cancer Society have detected measurable metabolic changes in the blood linked to both exposure to air pollution and subsequent lung cancer risk. The findings suggest that smog may leave a biological trace in the body long before a diagnosis is made. The discovery is not yet a diagnostic test, but could help clarify how air pollution drives cancer development.
