Particulate Matter-Induced Neurotoxicity: Unveiling the Role of NOX4-Mediated ROS Production and Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Neuronal Apoptosis.

Urban air pollution, a significant environmental hazard, is linked to adverse health outcomes and increased mortality across various diseases. This study investigates the neurotoxic effects of particulate matter (PM), specifically PM2.5 and PM10, by examining their role in inducing oxidative stress and subsequent neuronal cell death.
