ICAM-1-independent, CD18-dependent adhesion between neutrophils and human airway epithelial cells exposed in vitro to ozone
Tosi, MF; Hamedani, A; Brosovich, J; Alpert, SE
1,994
Inhalant exposure to ozone can cause diffuse airway epithelial injury that is associated with an inflammatory response, including the influx of neutrophils into lung and airway tissue. We have previously documented enhanced adhesiveness by neutrophils for human airway epithelial cells in in vitro models of diseases ass...

Ozone, but not nitrogen dioxide, fragments elastin and increases its susceptibility to proteolysis
Winters, RS; Burnette-Vick, BA; Johnson, DA
1,994
#The effects of ozone (O3) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) on the solubility and proteolytic susceptibility of elastin were examined to better understand how these oxidant air pollutants might damage the lung. In vitro O3 exposures at pH 7.4 resulted in the complete solubilization of elastin, but NO2 had no effect on solubi...

Foliar symptoms, ethylene biosynthesis and water use of young Norway spruce (Picea abies (L) Karst) exposed to drought and ozone
Van Den Driessche, R; Langebartels, C
1,994
Four-year old Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.) trees were pretreated at low and high water supply, and then placed into a growth chamber containing four compartments so that two levels of ozone exposure, 0.02 and 0.4 Al 1-1, could be replicated. They were exposed to ozone and drought stress for 59 days, and wate...

Effects of reductions in stratospheric ozone on tropospheric chemistry through changes in photolysis rates
Fuglestvedt, JS; Jonson, JE; Isaksen, ISA
1,994
The observed reductions in stratospheric ozone since the late 1970s are likely to have affected the penetration of UV radiation into the troposphere. We have examined the sensitivity and the response of the tropospheric chemistry to such changes in UV radiation. Based on observations of ozone column densities and model...

1,994
The forward rate constant, k(1) and the equilibrium constant, K-p, for the association reaction of the benzyl radical with oxygen have been determined. The rate constant k(1) was measured as a function of temperature (between 298 and 398 K) and pressure (at 20 and 760 torr of N-2 by two different technique, argon-lamp ...

Integrating the effects of simultaneous multiple stresses on plants using the simulation model TREGRO
Weinstein, DA; Yanai, RD
1,994
TREGRO, a model of tree physiological response to environmental stress, was developed to examine the details of tree response to the Interaction between ozone stress and nutrient deficiency. TREGRO was used to test the hypothesis that the nutrient deficiency ivould exacerbate growth reductions caused by ozone. When TRE...

Repeated subacute ozone exposure of inbred mice: airway inflammation and ventilation
Paquette, NC; Tankersley, CG; Zhang, LY; Kleeberger, SR
1,994
The present study was designed to assess the effects of repeated subacute ozone (O3) exposure on pulmonary inflammation and ventilation in two inbred strains of mice differentially susceptible to a single O3 exposure. Susceptible C57BL/6J / (B6) and resistant C3H/HeJ (C3) mice were exposed to 0.3 ppm O3 for 48 and 7...

1,994
Canopy throughfall was collected sequentially during individual rain events in a Norway spruce stand at Klosterhede in Denmark (1989) and a Douglas-fir stand at Speuld in the Netherlands (1993). Simultaneously, precipitation was sampled sequentially. Each fraction was analyzed for pH, Na+, K+, Ca2+, Mg2+, NH4/+, Cl-, N...

PM10, ozone, and hospital admissions for the elderly in Minneapolis-St. Paul, Minnesota
Schwartz, J
1,994
Several recent studies have reported associations between airborne particles and/or ozone and hospital admissions for respiratory disease. PM10 has rarely been used as the particle exposure measure, however. This study examined whether such an association could be seen in Minneapolis-St. Paul, Minnesota, which has dail...

Trends in surface ozone concentrations at Arosa (Switzerland)
Staehelin, J; Thudium, J; Buehler, R; Volz-Thomas, A; Graber, W
1,994
During the years 1989-1991, ozone was measured at four sites around Arosa (Switzerland). One of these sites was identical with that, where surface ozone was measured in the 1950s (Gotz and Volt, 1951; Perl, 1965). Comparison of both old and recent data indicates that surface ozone concentrations at Arosa have increased...

1,994
During July and August of 1986, 1987, and 1988, a field study was conducted of ambient acidic aerosol levels in Toronto, Ontario. Fine particle mass (d(a) &lt; 2.5 mu m) samples were collected twice daily at a central-city site for the determination of particulate-phase strong acidity (H+) and sulfate (SO4=). Two addit...

Ozone is the most persistent, wide-spread air pollutant in the United States. Over one half of the population of the US lives in cities or suburban areas which do not meet the National Ambient Air Quality Standard for ozone which is 0.12 ppm averaged over 1 h. Controlled laboratory exposures of human subjects have;show...

Induction of pathogen defence genes in parsley (Petroselinum crispum L) plants by ozone
Eckey-Kaltenbach, H; Grosskopf, E; Sandermann, H, Jr; Ernst, D
1,994
Parsley (Petroselinum crispum L.) is known to respond to pathogen attack by the synthesis of furanocoumarins and to UV-irradiation by the synthesis of flavone glycosides, whereas ozone treatment results in the induction of both pathways. Ozone treatment (200 nl 1(-1),10 h) of parsley seedlings results in an increased m...

Continuous exposure of rats to ozone has been shown to result in lung epithelial damage, inflammation, and subsequent increases in collagen content. The main goal of this study was to identify the earliest time point rat lungs continuously exposed to 1.0 ppm ozone for 14 days. An early increase of steady-state fibronec...

#Interleukin-1 (IL-1), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), and fibronectin are macrophage-derived mediators thought to be important in the pathogenesis of lung injury, inflammation, and fibrosis. In the present studies, we examined the effects of acute exposure of rats to the pulmonary irritant, ozone (O3), on pro...
