Daily intake of antioxidants ameliorates PM2.5-induced neuronal injury in mice
Objective: -induced brain pathology in mice. Materials and methods: -exposed primary neurons. Results: -induced neurotoxicity at least in the cortex and hippocampus. Conclusion: -induced neurotoxicity, which can be attenuated by VC and NAC supplementation. This highlights a potential prophylactic strategy to partially protect the brain from polluted air.
