Assessment on the lung injury of mice posed by airborne PM2.5 collected from developing area in China and associated molecular mechanisms: from histopathology to integrated transcriptome analysis
Abstract:Background & aimsSome epidemiological investigations have revealed airborne fine particulate matter (PM2.5) could induce adverse effects on respiratory system of human. However, the experimental evidences of the harmful effect of PM2.5 from mid-scale city in China and associated molecular mechanisms was still scarce. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the adverse effect on the lung system of PM2.5 collected from mid-city of China and elucidate the underlying molecular mechanism through mRNA-seq and microR… Show more
