Insights into the causal role of diesel exhaust particles in ventricular arrhythmogenesis: protective effects of antioxidant cerium oxide nanoparticles

[Background] Epidemiological studies suggest an association between air pollution and ventricular arrhythmias, with reactive oxygen species (ROS) playing a crucial role. However, the causal relationship and long-term effects remain uncertain, and the effectiveness of interventions aimed at reducing...

Sumario:[Background] Epidemiological studies suggest an association between air pollution and ventricular arrhythmias, with reactive oxygen species (ROS) playing a crucial role. However, the causal relationship and long-term effects remain uncertain, and the effectiveness of interventions aimed at reducing ROS requires further investigation. Here we aimed to evaluate the effects of a 3-weeks exposure to diesel exhaust particles (DEPs) on ventricular arrhythmogenesis, explore the underlying mechanisms, and assess the potential of cerium oxide nanoparticles (CeO2NP) as a ROS-detoxifying intervention.
