Nanoparticle inhalation augments particle-dependent systemic microvascular dysfunction
BACKGROUND: We have shown that pulmonary exposure to fine particulate matter (PM) impairs endothelium dependent dilation in systemic arterioles. Ultrafine PM has been suggested to be inherently more toxic by virtue of its increased surface area. The purpose of this study was to determine if ultrafin...
