“…Further evidence has indicated that HDP can result from epigenetic factors, as well as modifications and interactions involving genetic factors and environmental toxicants [ 29 , 30 ]. Exposure to air polluted by fine particulate matter (PM 2.5 ) [ 26 , 27 ], ozone (O 3 ), carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) [ 29 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 ] can trigger inflammatory reactions, increase blood coagulation, and decrease placental circulation. Consequently, these toxicants can lead to HDP [ 30 , 37 ], though the underlying mechanisms remain unclear [ 29 , 35 ].…”
