We investigated the synergic effects of components of particulate matter with aerodynamic diameters ≤2.5μm (PM2.5) on airway inflammation. Co-exposure to cadmium (Cd) and 9,10-phenanthrenequinone (9,10-PQ) additively/synergistically increased pro-inflammatory responses in airway epithelial cells, whereas co-exposure to Cd and phenanthrene resulted in no acceleration. These results suggest that the combination of metal and a quinone derivative can contribute to the exacerbation of respiratory diseases by PM2.5.
我们研究了空气动力学直径≤2.5μm的颗粒物(PM2.5)各组分对气道炎症的协同作用。镉(Cd)与9,10 - 菲醌(9,10 - PQ)共同暴露会累加/协同增加气道上皮细胞中的促炎反应,而Cd与菲共同暴露则不会加速这种反应。这些结果表明,金属与醌衍生物的组合可能会导致PM2.5加剧呼吸系统疾病。
