Description

The abstract mentions neurotoxicology as an area of neuroepigenetic impact but doesn’t establish whether epigenetic modifications cause, result from, or modulate neurotoxic effects. This mechanistic uncertainty limits understanding of environmental contributions to neurodegeneration and neuroprotective strategies.
