Abstract

Exposures to fine particulate matter (PM_2.5) concentrations above the WHO guidelines affect 99% of the world population. In a recent issue of Nature, Hill et al. dissect the tumor promotion paradigm orchestrated by PM_2.5 inhalation exposures in lung carcinogenesis, supporting the hypothesis that PM_2.5 can increase your risk of lung carcinoma without ever smoking.
