Short-term particulate matter exposure induces extracellular vesicle release in overweight subjects
BACKGROUND Extracellular vesicles (EVs) represent a plausible molecular mechanism linking particulate matter (PM) inhalation to its systemic effects. Microvesicles (MVs) are released from many cell types in response to various stimuli. Increased body mass index (BMI) could modify the response to PM exposure due to enhanced PM uptake and/or an underlying pro-oxidative state. We investigated the ...
متن کاملThe Association between Short-term Exposure to Fine Particulate Matter and Outpatient Visit in Beijing, China
Background We tried to investigate the effect of PM2.5 on daily counts of outpatient visits in the Guang'anmen Hospital to determine if short-term PM2.5 exposure with extremely high concentration affects cardiopulmonary function of Beijing residents. Methods Outpatient visits and PM2.5 data from 01/11/2011 to 03/31/2013 were extracted from the Guang'anmen Hospital and the American Embassy in ...
متن کاملParticulate matter: short-term but high-impact exposure at public gathering in Germany.
Dear editor, Particulate matter (PM) air pollution is increasingly regarded as a global health threat and China in particular is frequently criticised for having problems with haze and air pollution. A systematic analysis of the global burden of disease in 2010 described a shift of risk factors away from communicable diseases in children towards non-communicable diseases in adults. Ambient PM a...
متن کاملImpact of short-term exposure to fine particulate matter on emergency ambulance dispatches in Japan.
BACKGROUND Evidence of an association between fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and morbidity is limited in Asia. We used a case-crossover design to evaluate the association between short-term exposure to PM2.5 and emergency ambulance dispatches (as a proxy of acute health outcomes), and to calculate the extent to which a 10 μg/m(3) decrease in PM2.5 concentrations would reduce the number of ambu...
متن کاملParticulate matter exposure induces persistent lung inflammation and endothelial dysfunction.
Epidemiologic and animal studies have shown that exposure to particulate matter air pollution (PM) is a risk factor for the development of atherosclerosis. Whether PM-induced lung and systemic inflammation is involved in this process is not clear. We hypothesized that PM exposure causes lung and systemic inflammation, which in turn leads to vascular endothelial dysfunction, a key step in the in...
