Levels of biochemical factors (A) AST, (B) LDH, (C) eotaxin, (D) MCP-1, (E) MIP-1α, (F) MIP-2, (G) IL-1β, (H) TNF- α, (I) IL-6, (J) IL-17, (K) LIF, (L) VEGF and (M) CRP in BALF from mice treated with OPP2.5 particles (80 µg), PPP2.5 particles (80 µg) or vehicle (50 µl sterile saline). Data are presented as mean ± standard error of mean (n=8/group). *P<0.05 and **P<0.01 vs. control. #P<0.05 and ##P<0.01 vs. OPP2.5 group. AST, aspartate transaminase; LDH, lactate dehydrogenase; MCP, monocyte chemoattractant protein; MIP, macrophage inflammatory protein; IL, interleukin, TNF, tumor necrosis factor; LIF, leukemia inhibitory factor; VEGF, vascular endothelial growth factor; CRP, C-reactive protein; BALF, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid; OPP2.5, original atmospheric particulate matter with a diameter ≤2.5 µm; PPP2.5, pure atmospheric particulate matter with a diameter ≤2.5 µm.
