Ambient particulate matter exposure and cardiovascular diseases: a focus on progenitor and stem cells

Abstract: Air pollution is a major challenge to public health. Ambient fine particulate matter (PM) is the key component for air pollution, and associated with significant mortality. The majority of the mortality following PM exposure is related to cardiovascular diseases. However, the mechanisms for the adverse effects of PM exposure on cardiovascular system remain largely unknown and under active investigation. Endothelial dysfunction or injury is considered one of the major factors that contribute to the development … Show more

“…Current studies of effects of PM 2.5 exposure on BMSCs differentiation are limited, and mainly focus on endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs), which play a critical role in maintaining the structural and functional integrity of vasculature. It has been reported that PM 2.5–10 exposure significantly suppressed the number and function of stem cells (SCs) and EPCs in animals and humans [ 8 10 ]. Nevertheless, the mechanisms for the detrimental effects of PM on EPCs remain to be fully defined.…”

“…PM 2.5 can have negative effects on air quality and threatens human health. Furthermore, it can have effects on tissue-specific stem progenitor cells [2,3]. However, little is known about the mechanisms underlying the effects of PM 2.5 on stem progenitor cells, particularly hematopoietic stem progenitor cells (HSPCs).…”
