Hypermethylation of PPARG-encoding gene promoter mediates fine particulate matter-induced pulmonary fibrosis by regulating the HMGB1/NLRP3 axis
7 Feb 2024
Abstract excerpt
The inflammatory response induced by fine particulate matter (PM2.5), a common class of air pollutants, is an important trigger for the development of pulmonary fibrosis. However, the specific mechanisms responsible for this phenomenon are yet to be fully understood. To investigate the mechanisms behind the onset and progression of lung fibrosis owing to PM2.5 exposure, both rats and human bronchial epithelial...
