Neural mechanism facilitating PM2.5-related cardiac arrhythmias through cardiovascular autonomic and calcium dysregulation in a rat model

Abstract Particulate matter < 2.5 μm (PM2.5) exposure is associated with increased arrhythmia events and cardiovascular mortality, but the detailed mechanism remained elusive. In the current study, we aimed to investigate the autonomic alterations in a rodent model after acute exposure to PM2.5....
