Inhalation of Ultrafine Particles Alters Blood Leukocyte Expression of Adhesion Molecules in Humans
Ultrafine particles (UFPs; aerodynamic diameter < 100 nm) may contribute to the respiratory and cardiovascular morbidity and mortality associated with particulate air pollution. We tested the hypothesis that inhalation of carbon UFPs has vascular effects in healthy and asthmatic subjects, detecta...
