Abstract

Exposure of atmospheric particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter less than 2.5μm (PM2.5) is epidemiologically associated with illnesses. Potential effects of air pollutants on innate immunity have raised concerns. As the first defense line, macrophages are able to induce inflammatory response. However, whether PM2.5 exposure affects macrophage polarizations remains unclear.
