Non-optimal ambient temperatures can affect lung function, leading to inflammation and oxidative damage, especially under low temperatures.
Background: The effect of non-optimal ambient temperatures (low and high temperatures) on lung function and the underlying mechanisms remains unclear. Methods: Forty-three (20 males, 23 females) healthy non-obese volunteers with an average of 23.9 years participated in the controlled temperature study. All volunteers underwent three temperature exposures in a sequence (moderate [18 degrees C], low [6 degrees C], and high [30 degrees C] temperatures) lasting 12 h with air pollutants controlled. lung function parameters (forced vital capacity [FVC], forced expiratory volume in 1 s [FEV1], and peak expiratory flow [PEF]) were determined in each exposure. Blood and urine samples were collected after each exposure and assayed for inflammatory markers [C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT), plateletlymphocyte ratio (PLR), and neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR)] and oxidative damage markers [protein carbonylation (PCO), 4-hydroxy-2-nominal-mercapturic acid (HNE-MA), 8-iso-prostaglandin-F2 & alpha; (8-isoPGF2 & alpha;), and 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG)]. Mixed-effects models were constructed to assess the changes of the above indexes under low or high temperatures relative to moderate temperature, and then the repeated measures correlation analyses were performed. Results: Compared with moderate temperature, a 2.20% and 2.59% net decrease in FVC, FEV1, and a 5.68% net increase for PEF were observed under low-temperature exposure, while a 1.59% net decrease in FVC and a 7.29% net increase in PEF under high-temperature exposure were found (all P < 0.05). In addition, low temperature elevated inflammatory markers (PCT, PLR, and NLR) and oxidative damage markers (8-isoPGF2 & alpha;, 8-OHdG), and high temperature elevated HNE-MA. Repeated measures correlation analyses revealed that PCT (r = -0.33) and NLR (r = -0.31) were negatively correlated with FVC and HNE-MA (r = -0.35) and 8-OHdG (r = -0.31) were negatively correlated with the FEV1 under low-temperature exposure (all P < 0.05). Conclusion: Non-optimal ambient temperatures exposure alters lung function, inflammation, and oxidative damage. Inflammation and oxidative damage might be involved in low temperature-related lung function reduction.
