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.

2007 journal article
Diesel exhaust enhanced susceptibility to influenza infection is associated with decreased surfactant protein expression
INHALATION TOXICOLOGY, 19(14), 1121–1133.
MeSH headings : Animals; Female; Gene Expression Regulation / physiology; Genetic Predisposition to Disease; Humans; Influenza, Human / etiology; Influenza, Human / genetics; Influenza, Human / metabolism; Mice; Mice, Inbred BALB C; Pulmonary Surfactant-Associated Proteins / biosynthesis; Pulmonary Surfactant-Associated Proteins / genetics; Pulmonary Surfactant-Associated Proteins / physiology; Pulmonary Surfactants / metabolism; Vehicle Emissions / toxicity
TL;DR:
Exposure to DE enhances the susceptibility to respiratory viral infections by reducing the expression and production of antimicrobial surfactant proteins, which are components of the interferon-independent antiviral defenses.
