Differences between co-cultures and monocultures in testing the toxicity of particulate matter derived from log wood and pellet combustion.

In vitro studies with monocultures of human alveolar cells shed deeper knowledge on the cellular mechanisms by which particulate matter (PM) causes toxicity, but cannot account for mitigating or aggravating effects of cell-cell interactions on PM toxicity.We assessed inflammation, oxidative stress a...
