Article Synopsis
- Fine particulate matter (PM) is linked to serious health issues like lung and heart diseases, as well as early mortality, with combustion particles and secondary organic aerosols (SOA) being major sources.
- The study explored how aging of combustion particles and their reactions with SOA change their properties and impact biological responses, including inflammation.
- Results indicated that both aging and SOA interactions significantly altered the chemical makeup of combustion particles and their effects on cell responses, emphasizing the importance of these processes in understanding PM health risks.
