Biomarkers for the adverse effects on respiratory system health associated with atmospheric particulate matter exposure

Caixia Guo et al.

Summary: Epidemiological evidence shows a positive correlation between atmospheric particulate matter (PM2.5) exposure and respiratory diseases, with biomarkers potentially helping to understand the biological mechanisms underlying adverse health outcomes of PM2.5. Inconsistent findings across studies may stem from differences in airborne PM2.5 samples, exposure modes, and methodological issues, warranting further research to identify novel biomarkers and elucidate the causal relationship between PM2.5 pollution and deleterious lung outcomes.

Fine particulate matter exposure aggravates ischemic injury via NLRP3 inflammasome activation and pyroptosis

Li Gao et al.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the role and mechanisms of NLRP3 inflammasome and pyroptosis in ischemic stroke after PM2.5 exposure.

Qiangqiang Shi et al.

Summary: This study investigates the regulatory mechanism of FGF10 on ER stress in PM-induced lung injury.

Infiltration of inflammatory macrophages and neutrophils and widespread pyroptosis in lung drive influenza lethality in nonhuman primates

Jacqueline D. Corry et al.

Summary: This study used a novel model of lethal avian influenza in nonhuman primates to investigate the mechanism of severe pneumonia caused by the virus. The researchers found that a potent innate immune response, including high-level production of interferons and inflammatory factors, drives severe disease by recruiting inflammatory cells and leading to the release of neutrophil extracellular traps. They also observed a specific form of cell death known as pyroptosis during lethal influenza. These findings shed light on the mechanisms driving severe influenza and could be targeted for therapeutic interventions to prevent acute lung injury in patients with severe influenza.

Targeting NLRP3 Inflammasome With Nrf2 Inducers in Central Nervous System Disorders

Bora Tastan et al.

Summary: The NLRP3 inflammasome is a multiprotein complex that plays a crucial role in the immune system and its abnormal activation is associated with various diseases. The transcription factor Nrf2, which regulates cellular stress response, has shown potential as a therapeutic target to inhibit NLRP3 inflammasome activation. This review discusses the current understanding of NLRP3 inflammasome activation and Nrf2 pathways, as well as the use of Nrf2 activators in central nervous system disorders.

Acute exposure to PM2.5 triggers lung inflammatory response and apoptosis in rat

Yang Li et al.

Summary: Our study found that acute exposure to diverse dosages of PM2.5 can trigger inflammatory response and cell apoptosis, attributed to severe oxidative stress. Activation of the Nrf2-ARE pathway serves as an important compensatory process for antioxidant damage during the early stage of exposure to PM2.5. Enhancing HO-1 expression may mitigate cell apoptosis caused by PM2.5 exposure.

Airborne particulate matter induces oxidative damage, DNA adduct formation and alterations in DNA repair pathways*

Ericka Marel Quezada-Maldonado et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the types of DNA damage and alterations in DNA repair pathways induced by PM exposure, showing that PM mainly causes oxidative stress and DNA damage through the formation of DNA adducts and DSBs, as well as deregulates the protein expression in DNA repair pathways. However, there are still limitations in the knowledge about the effects of PM on DNA repair pathways, and further research is needed to deepen our understanding.

Summary: The study found that PM2.5 exposure gradually increased intraocular pressure and upregulated inflammation-related proteins in outflow tissues. PM2.5 exposure decreased cell viability and affected contraction in HTM cells. Increased ROS levels and activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome and downstream inflammatory factors were observed, leading to adverse effects that were mitigated by ROS scavenger and caspase-1 inhibitor interventions.

Cross-Talk Between Inflammation and Fibroblast Growth Factor 10 During Organogenesis and Pathogenesis: Lessons Learnt From the Lung and Other Organs

Manuela Marega et al.

Summary: The adult human lung is constantly exposed to irritants in the external environment, which trigger local biological responses regulated by cells, cytokines, and growth factors, aiming to replace damaged cells through proliferation and differentiation. Among these factors, fibroblast growth factor (Fgf) family members play a key role in tissue homeostasis and repair, with Fgf10 being an important factor in organ morphogenesis and disease, influencing inflammation but also being impacted by it. The complex connection between Fgf10 and inflammation in organogenesis and disease in the lung remains unclear, warranting further research.
