“…Using the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES III) cohort, an association between annual ozone exposure and decreased cognitive function and short-term memory was observed in the adult population (Chen & Schwartz, 2009). Memory impairment was also observed in rats exposed to ozone acutely -exposure for 4 hours to 400-1000 ppb (Dorado-Martínez et al, 2001;Rivas-Arancibia et al, 2000;Avila-Costa et al, 1999) -and sub-chronically, 250 ppb for 15-90 days, 4 hours a day (Rivas-Arancibia et al, 2010). Exposure to ozone has also been associated with oxidative injury to various brain regions in the rat, including the striatum, substantia nigra, cerebellum, olfactory bulb, frontal and prefrontal cortex, either through acute high dose exposures (1 ppm for 4 hours: RivasArancibia et al, 2000), or longer duration low dose challenges (7-60 day exposure to 250 ppb ozone for 4 hours a day: Rivas-Arancibia et al, 2010;Martínez-Canabal et al, 2008;Mokoena et al, 2010;Guevara-Guzmán et al, 2009).…”

This document presents answers to 24 questions relevant to reviewing European policies on air pollution and to addressing health aspects of these policies. The answers were developed by a large group of scientists engaged in the WHO project "Review of evidence on health aspects of air pollution -REVIHAAP". The experts reviewed and discussed the newly accumulated scientific evidence on the adverse effects on health of air pollution, formulating science-based answers to the 24 questions. Extensive rationales for the answers, including the list of key references, are provided. The review concludes that a considerable amount of new scientific information on the adverse effects on health of particulate matter, ozone and nitrogen dioxide, observed at levels commonly present in Europe, has been published in recent years. This new evidence supports the scientific conclusions of the WHO air quality guidelines, last updated in 2005, and indicates that the effects in some cases occur at air pollution concentrations lower than those serving to establish these guidelines. It also provides scientific arguments for taking decisive actions to improve air quality and reduce the burden of disease associated with air pollution in Europe.This publication arises from the project REVIHAAP and has been co-funded by the European Union.

“…The pulmonary antioxidant defenses are able to neutralize the damage, depending on the dose and exposure time, but when they are overwhelmed a chain of chemical reactions begins that leads to the formation of ROS, caused by secondary exposure to ozone. The ROS pass into the blood, and through the bloodstream reach all the organism, producing a state of widespread oxidative stress (Rivas-Arancibia et al, 2000. The mechanism of toxicity of ozone is explained as a cascade of reactions (Pryor et al, 1995) in which inhaled ozone reacts with molecules in the fluid of the epithelial lining producing ROS and toxic byproducts, which in turn are able to cause other reactions in the blood.…”

“…ROS and RNS can then reach the central nervous system through the bloodstream, producing oxidative stress (Dorado-Martínez et al, 2001). Oxidative stress caused by ozone exposure produces an increase in lipid peroxidation in different brain structures (Rivas-Arancibia et al, 2000). It is also known that oxidative stress caused by an acute one-time 1 ppm ozone exposure induces neuronal changes (Colín-Barenque et al, 1999).…”
