Oxidative Stress Caused by Ozone Exposure Induces Changes in P2X7 Receptors, Neuroinflammation, and Neurodegeneration in the Rat Hippocampus

Low-ozone doses cause alterations in the oxidation-reduction mechanisms due to the increase in reactive oxygen species, alter cell signaling, and produce deleterious metabolic responses for cells. Adenosine 5′triphosphate (ATP) can act as a mediator in intercellular communication between neurons and...

In conclusion, these results suggest that repeated exposure to low-ozone doses, such as those that can occur during highly polluted days, causes a state of oxidative stress, leading to alterations in the P2X7 receptors, which promote changes in the activation of signaling pathways for inflammatory processes and cell death, converging at a progressive neurodegeneration process, as may be happening in Alzheimer’s disease.Raúl Velázquez-PérezErika Rodríguez-MartínezMarlen Valdés-FuentesNoemí Gelista-HerreraNancy Gómez-CrisóstomoSelva Rivas-ArancibiaHindawi LimitedarticleCytologyQH573-671ENOxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, Vol 2021 (2021)
