«Lignin is a complex
aromatic molecule that is mainly burned to make steam
in a biorefinery plant, a relatively inefficient process that doesn't create a lot of value,» says Birgitte Ahring, Ph.D., the principal investigator on the project.

Some of those large
molecules are like small sheets of graphite with hydrogen attached to them: we call these polycyclic
aromatic hydrocarbons and they can be found
in terrestrial counterparts like mothballs, for example.
Certain particle compounds may directly generate ROS
in vivo because of their surface chemistry (eg, metals, organic compounds, and semiquinones) or after bioactivation by cytochrome P450 systems (eg, polycyclic
aromatic hydrocarbon conversion to quinones).6, 290 a, 290 b A particle surface or anions present on otherwise more inert particles may disrupt iron homeostasis
in the lung and thereby also generate ROS via Fenton reactions.291 Other PM constituents may do so indirectly by the upregulation of endogenous cellular sources (eg, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate [NADPH]-RRB- oxidase) 292,293 or by perturbing organelle function (eg, mitochondria) by taken - up PM components.261 Particle stimulation of irritant and afferent ANS fibers may also play a role
in local and systemic oxidative stress formation.294 Given the rich antioxidant defenses
in the lung fluid, secondarily generated oxidization products of endogenous
molecules (eg, oxidized phospholipids, proteins) or a reduction
in endogenous antioxidants per se may be responsible at least
in part for the state of oxidative stress
in the lungs (along with instigating the subsequent cellular responses) rather than ROS derived directly from PM and its constituents.

molecules come from phenolic, or
aromatic, compounds, Henderson says, and robust food sources include those that we more often hear are rich

in fruit like red raspberries, blackberries, and cranberries.

in the presence of the toxic pollutant known as polycyclic
