Exogenous 8-Hydroxydeoxyguanosine Attenuates PM<sub>2.5</sub>-Induced Inflammation in Human Bronchial Epithelial Cells by Decreasing NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation

Particulate matter 2.5 (PM<sub>2.5</sub>) induces lung injury by increasing the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and inflammation. ROS aggravates NLRP3 inflammasome activation, which activates caspase-1, IL-1β, and IL-18 and induces pyroptosis; these factors propagate inflamma...
