Metals mimic airway epithelial injury induced by in vitro exposure to Utah Valley ambient particulate matter extracts

JOURNAL OF TOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH-PART A-CURRENT ISSUES, 66(12), 1087–1112.

By: I. Pagan*, D. Costa*, J. McGee*, J. Richards*, J. Dye* & M. Dykstra n

MeSH headings : Air Pollutants, Occupational / isolation & purification; Air Pollutants, Occupational / toxicity; Animals; Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid; Cells, Cultured; Male; Metals, Heavy / isolation & purification; Metals, Heavy / toxicity; Rats; Rats, Sprague-Dawley; Trachea / diagnostic imaging; Trachea / drug effects; Ultrasonography; Utah
TL;DR: The parallel epithelial injury induced by the extracts and their surrogate Zn+Cu+V mixtures suggests that these metals are mediating the acute airway and respiratory health effects observed; however, metal interactions appear to play a critical role in the overall cellular effectsinduced by the PM-derived extracts.
