Abstract:
Objective To study the mechanism of respiratory tracts inflammation induced by the particles with an aerodynamic diameter of less than 10 ?m (PM10) and to observe the effect of high exposed group. Methods Particles were collected at kitchen, smoking-room, roadside and lake-side (the control group). Suspension of PM10 and rat models treated with PM10, kitchen oil smoke, cigarette smoke, road dust were established with a control group. On 22th day, the counts of total leukocyte and neutrophils in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathion peroxidase (GSH-Px), malondiadehyde (MDA), Cytokin-induced neutrophil chemotactics (CINC) in lung homogenate were measured and histopathological examinations were conducted on lung tissues. Results The counts of total leukocyte, macrophage and neutrophils in PM10-treat groups and the count of eosinophilia in road dust group increased significantly than those in control group (P
