Fine particulate matter (PM2.5) have become a major public health concern because of their adverse effects on health. Lungs are considered the primary organ affected by PM2.5. In order to understand the mechanism underlying PM2.5-induced lung injury, 16S rRNA gene sequencing, and liquid chromatograp...
