PM2.5 exposure inducing ATP alteration links with NLRP3 inflammasome activation

Xiang Zeng et al.

Summary: This article explores the mechanism by which fine particulate matter (PM2.5) affects the NLRP3 inflammasome, highlighting the potential role of ATP changes in triggering NLRP3 inflammasome activation. Investigating ATP changes due to exposure to PM2.5 may be crucial in regulating NLRP3 inflammasome activation and treating inflammation-related diseases, such as COVID-19.

Research Priorities of Applying Low-Cost PM2.5 Sensors in Southeast Asian Countries

Shih-Chun Candice Lung et al.

Summary: The low-cost and easy-to-use PM2.5 sensors provide an opportunity for breakthroughs in PM2.5 research in resource-limited countries in Southeast Asia. This review evaluates the available literature and identifies research priorities for low-cost sensor deployment in PM2.5 environmental and health research in the region. The research priorities focus on filling gaps in PM2.5 research, including source evaluation, hot spot investigation, exposure assessment, and health impacts evaluation.

Association between fine particulate air pollution and the risk of death from lung cancer in Taiwan

Shang-Shyue Tsai et al.

Summary: Airborne PM2.5 pollution has been associated with an increased likelihood of death attributed to lung cancer in Taiwan, where the incidence of this disease is growing. This ecologic study found that chronic exposure to high levels of PM2.5 was linked to an elevated risk of lung cancer mortality for both men and women.

PM2.5 induces inflammatory responses via oxidative stress-mediated mitophagy in human bronchial epithelial cells

Xuedi Zhai et al.

Summary: This study investigated the molecular mechanisms underlying PM2.5-induced cellular inflammation in human bronchial epithelial cells. It was found that PM2.5 exposure led to oxidative damage, mitochondrial dysfunction, and initiation of mitophagy, resulting in cellular inflammatory injury.
