Comparing at equivalent co-exposure levels, SHS-PM2.5 was 1.6 times more potent than AMB-PM2.5 for uLTE4 (95% CI 1.1-2.3); estimates for albuterol usage were similar but less significant. Effects at mean co-exposure levels were closer [SHS to AMB-PM2.5 potency ratio = 1.2 (95% CI 0.9-1.5) for uLTE4 and 1.2 (95% CI 0.7-1.9) for albuterol usage]. In summary, concurrent exposure to relatively low levels of SHS and AMB-PM2.5 were associated with health outcomes in asthmatic schoolchildren. Dose responses varied with changes in the relative amounts of each pollutant; SHS-PM2.5 was observed to be more potent than AMB-PM2.5 when co-exposure levels were equivalent.An amendment to this paper has been published and can be accessed via a link at the top of the paper.The molecular events causing memory loss and neuronal cell death in Alzheimer's disease (AD) over time are still unknown. Here we found that picomolar concentrations of soluble oligomers of synthetic beta amyloid (Aβ42) aggregates incubated with BV2 cells or rat astrocytes caused a sensitised response of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) with time, leading to increased production of TNF-α. Aβ aggregates caused long term potentiation (LTP) deficit in hippocampal slices and predominantly neuronal cell death in co-cultures of astrocytes and neurons, which was blocked by TLR4 antagonists. Soluble Aβ aggregates cause LTP deficit and neuronal death via an autocrine/paracrine mechanism due to TLR4 signalling. These findings suggest that the TLR4-mediated inflammatory response may be a key pathophysiological process in AD.One of the hallmarks of topological insulators (TIs), the intrinsic spin polarisation in the topologically protected surface states, is investigated at room temperature
