}Increasing evidence suggests that reactive oxygen species (ROS) and oxidative stress are involved in PM-mediated lung and cardiovascular injury. The physical characteristics and the chemical composition of particulate matter (PM) play a key role in ROS generation in vitro and in vivo. The mitochondria are major subcellular targets for PM as well as a source of ROS production. ROS production is due to interference in mitochondrial electron transfer and PT pore opening by pro-oxidative PM…

It is suggested that mitochondria augment intracellular oxidative stress due primarily to failure of their ROS removal systems, whereas the role of mitochondrial ROS emission is yet to be determined and a net increase in mitochondrial ROS production in situ remains to be demonstrated.

The synergistic effect of transition metals and persistent quinoid and semiquinone radicals for the generation of ROS without the presence of H2O2 is investigated, suggesting that the cytotoxic and carcinogenic potential of PM can be partly the result of redox cycling of persistentQuinoid radicals, which generate large amounts of ROS.

It is demonstrated that epithelial cells exhibit a hierarchical oxidative stress response that differs from that of macrophages by more rapid transition from cytoprotective to cytotoxic responses, and not being protected by a thiol antioxidant, N-acetylcysteine, which effectively protects macrophage against cytot toxic DEP chemicals.
