Abstract
Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) affect human health through the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) pathway and are implicated in mitochondrial dysfunction. Using data from the PIVUS study, we investigated the associations of serum AhR ligand (POP)-mediated luciferase activity (AhRL), mitochondrial ATP production inhibiting substances (MIS-ATP), and those affecting reactive oxygen species (MIS-ROS) with several metabolic syndrome (MetS) and cardiopulmonary function parameters. These include insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), inflammation, oxidative stress, and cardiopulmonary variables (FVC, FEV1, LV-EF, CCA distensibility). MIS-ATP showed significant correlations with HOMA-IR and pulmonary functions, indicating its direct impact of MIS-ATP on metabolic and pulmonary health. MIS-ROS correlated with oxidative stress markers and CCA distensibility, suggesting a role in systemic inflammatory responses. This study highlights the intricate relationships between environmental pollutant mixture and cardiopulmonary health in MetS as indicated by biomarkers of POP exposure in the elderly population, suggesting POP exposure may influence MetS onset and progression through mitochondrial dysfunction.
期刊介绍:
International Journal of Environmental Health Research ( IJEHR ) is devoted to the rapid publication of research in environmental health, acting as a link between the diverse research communities and practitioners in environmental health. Published articles encompass original research papers, technical notes and review articles. IJEHR publishes articles on all aspects of the interaction between the environment and human health. This interaction can broadly be divided into three areas: the natural environment and health – health implications and monitoring of air, water and soil pollutants and pollution and health improvements and air, water and soil quality standards; the built environment and health – occupational health and safety, exposure limits, monitoring and control of pollutants in the workplace, and standards of health; and communicable diseases – disease spread, control and prevention, food hygiene and control, and health aspects of rodents and insects. IJEHR is published in association with the International Federation of Environmental Health and includes news from the Federation of international meetings, courses and environmental health issues.
