Contribution of Lung Macrophages to the Inflammatory Responses Induced by Exposure to Air Pollutants
Figure 2
Cytokines produced by human AMs and bronchial epithelial cells (HBECs) when exposed to 100 g/mL of PM10 (EHC-93) for 24 h. Alveolar macrophages produced significantly more IL-6, IL-1, and GM-CSF than bronchial epithelial cells when exposed to same amount of PM10.
