Urban aerosol particulate matter promotes mitochondrial oxidative stress-induced cellular senescence in human retinal pigment epithelial ARPE-19 cells

Air pollution presents a severe risk to public health, with particulate matter (PM) identified as a significant hazardous element. However, despite the eye organ being constantly exposed to air pollution, only recently has the impact of PM on ocular health caught the attention of researchers and healthcare professionals. By compiling pertinent data, this paper aims to enhance our understanding of the underlying pathological mechanisms of PM-mediated ocular disorders and facilitate the development of effective treatment strategies. Recent data support the association between exposure to PM and the development of ocular pathologies such as dry eye syndrome, retinal atherosclerosis, and glaucoma. Based on the results of multiple studies, PM exposure can lead to oxidative stress, inflammation, autophagy, cell death, and, ultimately, the development of ophthalmic diseases. This review aims to consolidate the latest findings on PM-mediated ocular diseases by summarizing the outcomes from epidemiological, in vitro, and in vivo studies on ocular surface and retinal disorders as well as other relevant ophthalmic disorders.
