Transcriptomics profile of human bronchial epithelial cells exposed to ambient fine particles and influenza virus (H3N2)

Abstract excerpt

Abstract Fine particulate matter (PM2.5) pollution remains a major threat to public health. As the physical barrier against inhaled air pollutants, airway epithelium is a primary target for PM2.5 and influenza viruses, two major environmental insults. Recent studies have shown that PM2.5 and influenza viruses may interact to aggravate airway inflammation, an essential event in the pathogenesis of diverse...
