abstract = {Combustion-derived nanoparticles, such as diesel engine
exhaust particles, have been implicated in the adverse
health effects of particulate air pollution. Recent studies
suggest that inhaled nanoparticles may also reach and/or
affect the brain. The aim of our study was to comparatively
evaluate the effects of short-term diesel engine exhaust
(DEE) inhalation exposure on rat brain and lung. After 4 or
18 h recovery from a 2 h nose-only exposure to DEE (1.9
mg/m(3)), the mRNA expressions of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1),
inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), cyclooxygenase-2
(COX-2), and cytochrome P450 1A1 (CYP1A1) were investigated
in lung as well as in pituitary gland, hypothalamus,
olfactory bulb, olfactory tubercles, cerebral cortex, and
cerebellum. HO-1 protein expression in brain was
investigated by immunohistochemistry and ELISA. In the lung,
4 h post-exposure, CYP1A1 and iNOS mRNA levels were
increased, while 18 h post-exposure HO-1 was increased. In
the pituitary at 4 h post-exposure, both CYP1A1 and HO-1
were increased; HO-1 was also elevated in the olfactory
tuberculum at this time point. At 18 h post-exposure,
increased expression of HO-1 and COX-2 was observed in
cerebral cortex and cerebellum, respectively. Induction of
HO-1 protein was not observed after DEE exposure.
Bronchoalveolar lavage analysis of inflammatory cell influx,
TNF-alpha, and IL-6 indicated that the mRNA expression
changes occurred in the absence of lung inflammation. Our
study shows that a single, short-term inhalation exposure to
DEE triggers region-specific gene expression changes in rat
brain to an extent comparable to those observed in the
lung.},
