Differential production of metalloproteinases after instilling various urban air particle samples to rat lung.

abstract：:The objective of this study was to determine if prolonged hyperoxia exposure would deplete antioxidants, resulting in excessive oxidative stress that would lead to oxidation of pulmonary surfactant and contribute to lung dysfunction. Rats were exposed to either hyperoxic (> 95% O(2)) or normoxic (21% O(2)) oxygen conc...
