We tested the hypothesis that oxidative stress and biological effect after ozone (O-3) exposure are dependent on changes in iron homeostasis. After O-3 exposure, healthy volunteers demonstrated increased lavage concentrations of iron, transferrin, lactoferrin, and ferritin. In normal rats, alterations of iron metabolism after O-3 exposure were immediate and preceded the inflammatory influx. To test for participation of this disruption in iron homeostasis in lung injury following O-3 inhalation, we exposed Belgrade rats, which are functionally deficient in divalent metal transporter 1 (DMT1) as a means of iron uptake, and controls to O-3. Iron homeostasis was disrupted to a greater extent and the extent of injury was greater in Belgrade rats than in control rats. Nonheme iron and ferritin concentrations were higher in human bronchial epithelial (HBE) cells exposed to O-3 than in HBE cells exposed to filtered air. Aldehyde generation and IL-8 release by the HBE cells was also elevated following O-3 exposure. Human embryonic kidney (HEK 293) cells with elevated expression of a DMT1 construct were exposed to filtered air and O-3. With exposure to O-3, elevated DMT1 expression diminished oxidative stress (i.e., aldehyde generation) and IL-8 release. We conclude that iron participates critically in the oxidative stress and biological effects after O3 exposure.
