Effects of urban coarse particles inhalation on oxidative and inflammatory parameters in the mouse lung and colon.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Inhalation of environmental (nano) particles (NP) as well as persistent herpesvirus-infection are potentially associated with chronic lung disease and as both are omnipresent in human society a coincidence of these two factors is highly likely. We hypothesized that NP-exposure of persistently herpesvirus-inf...
