Modulation of pulmonary inflammatory responses and antimicrobial defenses in mice exposed to diesel exhaust
TOXICOLOGY AND APPLIED PHARMACOLOGY, 229(3), 310–319.
author keywords: diesel exhaust; inflammation; lung; surfactant proteins; clara cell; mice
MeSH headings : Air Pollutants / toxicity; Animals; Cytokines / drug effects; Cytokines / metabolism; Female; Intercellular Adhesion Molecule-1 / drug effects; Intercellular Adhesion Molecule-1 / metabolism; Lung / drug effects; Lung / pathology; Mice; Mice, Inbred BALB C; Neutrophils / drug effects; Neutrophils / metabolism; Occupational Exposure / adverse effects; Pneumonia / chemically induced; Pulmonary Surfactant-Associated Protein A / drug effects; Pulmonary Surfactant-Associated Protein A / metabolism; Pulmonary Surfactant-Associated Protein D / drug effects; Pulmonary Surfactant-Associated Protein D / metabolism; Respiratory Tract Infections / etiology; Time Factors; Up-Regulation / drug effects; Uteroglobin / drug effects; Uteroglobin / metabolism; Vehicle Emissions / toxicity
TL;DR:
Exposure to moderate and high occupational levels of DE caused an increase in lung injury and inflammation, and a decrease in host defense molecules, which could result in increased susceptibility to respiratory pathogens.
