We devised a new in vitro cell exposure system to freshly generated diesel exhaust (DE),
different from conventional in vitro culture systems, to examine the effects of DE on human …

To investigatethe effects of diesel exhaust particles (DEP) and mycobacterial infection on
macrophages, we examined protein and mRNA expression levels of various cytokines …

The authors investigated the effect of diesel exhaust (DE) on cytokine expression in murine
lung tissues. BALB/c mice were exposed to DE for 1 month at different dose levels of DE …

Epidemiologic and experimental studies suggest that diesel exhaust particles (DEPs) may
be related to increasing respiratory mortality and morbidity. We have shown that DEPs …

Animal studies have reported that diesel exhaust particles (DEP), which constitute an
important fraction of particulate air pollution, lead to inflammation and/or damage of the …

Several epidemiological studies have recently shown associations of increased premature
mortality rates with ambient paniculate air pollution. Diesel exhaust particles (DEP) may …

Objective: Epidemiological as well as experimental studies suggest that particulate air
pollutants, including diesel exhaust particles (DEP), may play a role in the recent increase of …

The authors investigated the effects of exposure to diesel exhaust (DE) on murine lung
tissues invivo. BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice were exposed to DE with low (100 μ g/m 3) and …

Host responses to DEPs are regulated by a balance between antioxidants and
proinflammatory responses. DEP-induced oxidants play a key role in proinflammatory …

Exposure to diesel exhaust (DE) increased airway inflammatory responses and airway
responsiveness to allergen challenge. To clarify the roles of T cells in DE exposure–induced …
