Abstract
⺠Exposure to PM is associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. ⺠Altered oxidative and energetic metabolism is suggested as an underlying mechanism. ⺠Mitochondrial dysfunction and impaired oxidative phosphorylation was induced by PM. ⺠Altered oxidative metabolism correlated with deficient cardiac performance. ⺠The findings comprise an early cardiovascular alteration triggered by PM exposure.
