Airborne particulate matter selectively activates endoplasmic reticulum stress response in the lung and liver tissues.

ABSTRACT: Recent studies have suggested a link between inhaled particulate matter (PM) exposure and increased mortality and morbidity associated with pulmonary and cardiovascular diseases. However, a precise understanding of the biological mechanism underlying PM-associated toxicity and pathogenesis remains elusive. Here, we investigated the impact of PM exposure in intracellular stress signaling pathways with animal models and cultured cells. Inhalation exposure of the mice to environmentally relevant fine particulate matter (aerodynamic diameter < 2.5 ?m, PM(2.5)) induces endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and activation of unfolded protein response (UPR) in the lung and liver tissues as well as in the mouse macrophage cell line RAW264.7. Ambient PM(2.5) exposure activates double-strand RNA-activated protein kinase-like ER kinase (PERK), leading to phosphorylation of translation initiation factor eIF2? and induction of C/EBP homologous transcription factor CHOP/GADD153. Activation of PERK-mediated UPR pathway relies on the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and is critical for PM(2.5)-induced apoptosis. Furthermore, PM(2.5) exposure can activate ER stress sensor IRE1?, but it decreases the activity of IRE1? in splicing the mRNA encoding the UPR trans-activator X-box binding protein 1 (XBP1). Together, our study suggests that PM(2.5) exposure differentially activates the UPR branches, leading to ER stress-induced apoptosis through the PERK-eIF2?-CHOP UPR branch. This work provides novel insights into the cellular and molecular basis by which ambient PM(2.5) exposure elicits its cytotoxic effects that may be related to air pollution-associated pathogenesis.

Project description:Background: In classrooms high concentrations of particulate matter PM10 were measured. It is unknown whether the hazard of indoor particles is similar to that of the better studied outdoor particles. This study therefore analyzed adverse biological effects of classroom in comparison to outdoor PM10. Methods: Samples were taken from six schools during teaching hours. Genome-wide gene expression in human bronchial BEAS-2B epithelial cells was analyzed, and regulated genes were verified by quantitative PCR. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), endotoxin, and cat allergen Fel d 1 were analyzed with standard methods. Enhancement of allergic reactivity by PM10 was confirmed with CD63 upregulation in human primary basophils. Acceleration of human blood coagulation was determined with supernatants of PM10-exposed human peripheral blood monocytes. Results: Indoor PM10 induced SERPINB2 (involved in blood coagulation) and inflammatory genes (like CXCL6, CXCL1, IL6, IL8, all p<0.001). Outdoor PM10 induced xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes (CYP1A1, CYP1B1, TIPARP, all p<0.001). The induction of inflammatory genes by indoor PM10 could be explained by endotoxin (indoor 128.5±42.2EU/mg versus outdoor 13.4±21.5EU/mg, p<0.001), the induction of CYP by outdoor PAH (indoor 8.3±4.9ng/mg versus outdoor 16.7±15.2ng/mg, p<0.01). The induction of SERPINB2 was confirmed by a more rapid human blood coagulation (p<0.05). Indoor PM10 had no effect on the allergic reactivity from human primary basophils, except in cat allergic individuals. This was explained by varying Fel d 1 concentrations in indoor PM10 (p<0.001). Conclusions: Indoor PM10, compared to outdoor PM10, was 6 times higher, had a different composition, and on an equal weight basis induced more inflammatory and allergenic reactions, and accelerated blood coagulation. Outdoor PM10 had significantly lower effects, but induced detoxifying enzymes. Therefore, preliminary interventions for the reduction of classroom PM10 seem reasonable, perhaps by intensified ventilation.

For genome-wide gene expression analysis, BEAS-2B cells (passage 41) were incubated with 10M-BM-5g/ml PM10 (school 4 indoor and outdoor) for 4, 10 or 24h, all in triplicate. experiment type : time course
