Abstrakt: The emissions and exposure limits for airborne PM 0.1 are lacking, with limited scientific data for toxicity. Therefore, we continuously monitored and calculated the number and mass concentrations of airborne PM 0.1 in December 2017, January 2018 and March 2018 during the high pollution period in Guangzhou. We collected PM 0.1 from the same period and analyzed their chemical components. A549, THP-1 and A549/THP-1 co-cultured cells were selected for exposure to PM 0.1 , and evaluated for toxicological responses. Our aims are to 1) measure and analyze the number and mass concentrations, and chemical components of PM 0.1 ; 2) evaluate and compare PM 0.1 toxicity to different airway cells models at different time points. Guangzhou had the highest mass concentration of PM 0.1 in December 2017, while the number concentration was the lowest. Chemical components in PM 0.1 vary significantly at different time periods, and the correlation between the chemical composition or source of PM 0.1 and the mass and number concentration of PM 0.1 was dissimilar. Exposure to PM 0.1 disrupted cell membranes, impaired mitochondrial function, promoted the expression of inflammatory mediators, and interfered with DNA replication in the cell cycle. The damage caused by exposure to PM 0.1 at different times exhibited variations across different types of cells. PM 0.1 in March 2018 stimulated co-cultured cells to secrete more inflammatory mediators, and CMA was significantly related to the expression of them. Our study indicates that it is essential to monitor both the mass and number concentrations of PM 0.1 throughout all seasons annually, as conventional toxicological experiments and the internal components of PM 0.1 may not effectively reveal the health damages caused by elevated number levels of PM 0.1 .
