RESULTS: The study scrutinizes if PM exposure causes oxidative DNA damage to AMs differentially depending on their type of polarization. Further, SHE\'s potential is investigated in reducing oxidative DNA damage in polarized AMs and restoring AM polarization in PM-induced allergic airway inflammation. The study discovers that PM triggers prolonged oxidative stress to AMs, leading to lipid peroxidation in them and alveolar epithelial cells. Particularly, AMs are polarized to M2 phenotype (F4/80+ CD206+ ) with enhanced oxidative DNA damage when subject to PM-induced oxidative stress. However, SHE repairs oxidative DNA damage in M1- and M2-polarized AMs and reduces AMs polarization imbalance due to PM exposure.
CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest the possibility of SHE as beneficial foods against PM-induced allergic airway inflammation via suppression of AM dysfunction.
结果:该研究仔细研究了PM暴露是否会导致AM的DNA氧化损伤,这取决于它们的极化类型。Further,研究了SHE在减少极化AM中的氧化DNA损伤和恢复PM诱导的过敏性气道炎症中的AM极化方面的潜力。研究发现PM会引发AM的长期氧化应激,导致它们和肺泡上皮细胞的脂质过氧化。特别是,当受到PM诱导的氧化应激时,AM极化为M2表型(F4/80+CD206+),具有增强的氧化DNA损伤。然而,SHE修复M1和M2极化的AM中的氧化DNA损伤,并减少由于PM暴露引起的AM极化失衡。
结论:这些结果表明,SHE有可能通过抑制AM功能障碍作为抗PM诱导的过敏性气道炎症的有益食物。
