Exposure to different ambient pollutants maybe more toxic to lung than exposure to a single
pollutant. In this study, we discussed the inflammation and oxidative stress responses of rat …

Exposure to particulate matter≤ 2.5 µm in diameter (PM2. 5) profoundly affects human
health. However, the role of PM2. 5 on lung injury and cytokine levels in mice is currently …

Fine particulate matter (PM2. 5) and sulfur dioxide (SO2) are 2 common air pollutants, but
their toxicological effects of coexposure are still not fully clear. In this study, SO2 exposure …

The effects of ozone (O3) on airway epithelia, inflammation, and expression of inflammatory
stimuli were investigated to delineate the mechanisms of inflam matory reactions relevant to …

Abstract Fine particulate matter (PM 2.5) exposure is associated with morbidity and mortality
induced by respiratory diseases and increases the lung cancer risk. However, the …

Ozone (O3) is a respiratory irritant that leads to airway inflammation and pulmonary
dysfunction. Animal studies show that neonates are more sensitive to O3 inhalation than …

Particulate matter smaller than 2.5 μm (PM2. 5) is a continuing challenge to pulmonary
health. Here, we investigated the mechanisms involved in PM2. 5 exposure-induced acute …

Abstract Particulate matter 2.5 (< PM2. 5 μm) leads to chronic obstructive pulmonary
disease. In this study, biomarkers related to inflammation and oxidative stress in vitro and in …

To document the time course of the inflammatory response and epithelial injury in the lung
following and acute ozone exposure, rats were exposed to 1.0 ppm ozone for periods …

Coexposure of the lung to urban dust along with ozone appears to potentiate ozone-induced
injury. This conclusion was derived from whole-lung studies involving tissue and lavaged …
