ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effects of airborne fine particulate matter(PM2.5) on anti-oxidative enzymes activities and lipid peroxidation levels in livers, spleens, and kidneys of rats. Methods 32 male Wistar rats were randomly divided into PM2.5 exposure groups of different concentration (1.5, 7.5, 37.5 mg/kg), exposed by tracheoperfusion and control group treated with physiological saline. Rats were killed 24 h after treatment, and the levels of thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS), glutathione(GSH) and activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), catalase (CAT) were determined. Results PM2.5 exposure caused significantly decrease of SOD, CAT, GSH-Px, SOD/TBARS in livers and kidneys in a dose-dependent manner compared with control group (P
