Abstract：Particulate matter (PM2.5) is an important element of atmospheric pollutant in city. Because of having the features such as small particle size, large area, strong activity, easy to carry toxic and harmful substances such as heavy metals, microorganisms, and the long stay in the atmosphere and long-conveyed distance, PM2.5 has a great impact on human health. At present, there are a lot of studies on the pathogenic mechanism of PM2.5, such as the change of immune function, the induction of oxidative stress and damage, gene mutation and DNA damage, but the pathogenic mechanism is not yet fully understood. In this paper, we review the pathogenic mechanisms of PM2.5.
