    Pollution Over Time Undermines The Lung’s Immune Defenses
    Impaired lung immune function joins the list of pollution-related health problems
    Particulate matter, one of the pollutants emitted from coal-burning power plants, accumulates over time in the lungs’ immune tissues. The buildup might help explain older adults’ weakened respiratory immune function.

    Lung immunity can decline with age, making older adults more susceptible to lung damage and serious respiratory infections. New research shows one reason why this might be so: Particulate matter inhaled from pollution acts over time to weaken the lungs’ immune system, researchers report online Nov. 21 in Nature Medicine.

    Air pollution is a leading cause of disease and premature death worldwide, disproportionately affecting the poor and marginalized (SN: 30/7/20). Particulate matter – a type of pollution emanating from vehicle exhaust, power plants, wildfires and other sources – has been linked to health hazards including respiratory, cardiovascular and nervous diseases (SN: 09/19/1… Read the rest
