Description
Jeeyoung Kim and co-authors test sphingolipids as markers of long-term air pollution exposure in a 2025 metabolomics study in South Korea. Blood fat shifts from dirty air were reported before, but long-term targeted proof was thin.
Plasma from close to two hundred adults in a dusty-area lung cohort was profiled for sphingolipids and amino acids. Yearly particle and nitrogen dioxide levels at each home came from a national model. Long-term particle exposure tied loosely to higher sphingomyelins before strict correction. In the lung disease subgroup, several sphingomyelin links passed the strict bar. Nitrogen dioxide tied to one ceramide and glutamate. The authors call for larger cohorts to confirm.
