Journal ArticleDOI
Titanium Dioxide (P25) Produces Reactive Oxygen Species in Immortalized Brain Microglia (BV2): Implications for Nanoparticle Neurotoxicity†
TL;DR: Data indicate that mouse microglia respond to Degussa P25 with cellular and morphological expressions of free radical formation, indicating that nanosize TiO2 could pose a risk to biological targets that are sensitive to oxidative stress damage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Translocation and potential neurological effects of fine and ultrafine particles a critical update
Annette Peters,Bellina Veronesi,Lilian Calderón-Garcidueñas,Peter Gehr,Lung Chi Chen,Marianne Geiser,William Reed,Barbara Rothen-Rutishauser,Samuel Schürch,Samuel Schürch,Holger Schulz +10 more
TL;DR: Morphometric analysis of the CNS indicated unequivocally that the brain is a critical target for PM Exposure and implicated oxidative stress as a predisposing factor that links PM exposure and susceptibility to neurodegeneration.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Outdoor Air Pollution and Brain Health Workshop

Tonelli,Bellina Veronesi,Robert O. Wright,Rosalind J. Wright +24 more
TL;DR: Recent findings that have established the effects of inhaled air pollutants in the brain, explore the potential mechanisms driving these phenomena, and discuss the recommended research priorities/approaches that were identified by the panel.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nanosize titanium dioxide stimulates reactive oxygen species in brain microglia and damages neurons in vitro.
Thomas C. Long,Julianne Tajuba,Preethi Sama,Navid B. Saleh,Carol D. Swartz,Joel S. Parker,Susan D. Hester,Gregory V. Lowry,Bellina Veronesi +8 more
TL;DR: It is indicated that P25 stimulates ROS in BV2 microglia and is nontoxic to isolated N27 neurons, however, P25 rapidly damages neurons at low concentrations in complex brain cultures, plausibly though microglial generated ROS.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nanometer size diesel exhaust particles are selectively toxic to dopaminergic neurons: the role of microglia, phagocytosis, and NADPH oxidase
Michelle L. Block,Xufeng Wu,Xufeng Wu,Zhong Pei,Guorong Li,Thomas J. Wang,Liya Qin,Belinda Wilson,Jiandong Yang,Jau-Shyong Hong,Bellina Veronesi +10 more
TL;DR: In vitro data indicate that DEP selectively damages DA neurons through the phagocytic activation of microglial NADPH oxidase and consequent oxidative insult.
